Definitions

  • the present application relates to a modification device of a surface.
  • EP 1558103 discloses a sole for anti-slipping shoes that comprises anti-slipping means to increase adherence, which are fixed to rigid or semi-rigid support members. These rigid or semi-rigid support members that include anti-slipping means have the possibility to rotate 180° in relation to a fixed point, which is fixed to the sole. When the footwear is being used, each one of these support members is fitted into recesses created in the sole so that once engaged, the lower surface of the member is aligned flush with the footwear sole. In this document, there is no reference to the use of any conducting wire serving as a guide for the rotation of the double-sided piece.
  • US6675504 discloses a shoe sole which contains a number of rigid screws or spikes on its contact face with the surface through where the user moves, wherein said screws or spikes can move from a position in contact with said surface to a stowed position where it does not interfere with that surface.
  • the document discloses the placement of retractable spikes or screws in order to change the coefficient of friction between the footwear sole and the surface through where the user moves.
  • no reference is made to the use of any conducting wire that serves as a guide for the rotation of the sole.
  • the present application describes a modification device of a surface that comprises at least one recess, at least one double-sided piece with at least one orifice through where the guide wire moves, at least one guide wire and at least one attachment point.
  • the guide wire of the device is applied in any direction provided that such direction defines a symmetry axis of the recess's shape.
  • the attachment point of the device is a protrusion disposed within the recess.
  • the present application also describes the use of the modification device of a surface in footwear, backpacks, suitcases, bags, wallets, files and/or sandpaper, bases for hot/cold surfaces
  • the present application relates to a modification device of a surface.
  • the main advantage of this technology lies in the ease in changing the type of surface used. Usually, in order to change the friction conditions of a surface, it is necessary to replace the entire surface, which may in some situations involve high financial investment. In other situations, as for example the modification of a surface of a footwear sole, one must also take into consideration the advantage of not being necessary to use different shoe thus making it possible to exchange parts of the sole by means of a retractable system which results in a greater comfort for the user.
  • the modification device of a surface comprises a recess in the surface, a double-sided piece with an identical shape to the one of the recess and having at least one orifice through where the guide wire(s) moves, at least one guide wire that can be applied in any direction provided that such direction defines a symmetry axis of the recess's shape and at least one attachment point, which may be achieved for example by the existence of protrusion(s) placed within the recess.
  • the device now disclosed allows, for example, the use of the same footwear for use in various kinds of flooring or the use of the same footwear with different decorative applications.
  • the device increases user comfort by eliminating the need to transport or store a large number of different footwear.
  • This same solution can also be used in backpacks, suitcases, bags, wallets, files and/or sandpaper, bases for hot/cold surfaces, among others.
  • the modification device of a surface comprises a recess in the surface, a double-sided piece with an identical shape to the recess and having at least one orifice through where the guide wire(s) moves, at least one guide wire and at least one attachment point, which may be achieved for example by the existence of protrusion(s) placed within the recess.
  • the guide wire may be applied in any direction provided that such direction defines a symmetry axis of the recess's shape, i.e. in practice, the guide wire should be positioned towards the symmetry axis of the recess's shape regardless the direction and without any preference if the recess presents more than one symmetry axis.
  • Figure 1 it is illustrated the modification device of a surface properly placed in the recess.
  • the double-sided piece must have a dimensional tolerance of between 0.5 and 1 mm in order to allow the perfect fitting between said double-sided piece and the recess.
  • the double-sided piece must present a hole through where the guide wire will pass, thus allowing the double-sided piece, after being removed from the recess, to move along the guide wire.
  • Figure 2 precisely illustrates the modification device of the surface with the double-sided piece in position of face modification
  • Figure 3 illustrates the modification device of the footwear sole in which the double-sided piece went all the guide wire path, now allowing visualization of the opposite face.
  • the material of the guide wire should be compatible with the material of the sole so that there is no chemical reaction in the device assembly step.
  • the guide wire may be introduced in the device's manufacturing phase.
