Definitions

  • the invention relates to a composite shoe sole, so constructed footwear and a procedure for the production of such footwear.
  • the aim of the present invention is to make available footwear having a shoe bottom construction with a particularly high water vapor permeability, without unduly impairing its stability.

  • the outsole in the WO 2004/028284 A1 is formed from the peripheral frame and a plurality of outsole studs which distribute within the peripheral frame over the underside of the sole.
  • a better stabilization of the shoe bottom structure is in accordance with a sports shoe DE 100 36 100 C1 whose outsole is formed from outsole parts with large openings, has been achieved in that the outsole parts are arranged on the underside of a pressure-resistant plastic carrier layer, which is provided at the locations which lie over the large perforations of the outsole parts, with lattice-like openings and thus as the outsole parts is permeable to water vapor.
  • a membrane is arranged with which not only waterproofness is to be reached with water vapor permeability but also to prevent small stones that can not keep the grid openings of the support layer, enter the shoe interior.
  • the membrane which is easily damaged by mechanical influences, should thus provide protection which it actually requires itself.
  • the membrane and the protective layer are connected to one another by means of a point bond, ie by means of an adhesive pattern applied as a dot matrix. Only the surface area of the membrane which is not covered by adhesive still stands for a transport of water vapor Available.
  • the membrane and the protective layer form an adhesive bond which forms either with an outsole a composite sole, which is attached as such to the shaft bottom of the shoe, or forms part of the shaft bottom, to which then only one outsole is to be attached.
  • both outsole layers are provided with relatively small diameter aligned perforations and the protective layer is arranged between the two outsole layers.
  • the membrane is at the finished footwear on top of this outsole. Since only the Perforations vomanteil this outsole is available for a water vapor passage, only a correspondingly small proportion of the membrane area for the water vapor passage can be affected. In addition, it has been proven that standing air volumes hinder the transport of water vapor. Such stagnant volumes of air form in the perforations of this outsole and their elimination by air circulation through the outsole is compromised by the protective layer.
  • shoe sole manufacturers are usually less equipped and experienced in dealing with watertight, water-vapor-permeable membranes, shoe floor concepts are desirable in which the composite shoe sole as such is free of a membrane and the membrane forms part of the shaft bottom on which the composite shoe sole is placed ,
