Definitions

  • the invention relates to an insole for shoes, in particular as a disposable product with an at least two-layer base material comprising a foot-facing cover layer and an associated shoe-facing base layer and with a foot-facing foot surface and an opposite shoe-facing sole surface.
  • Insoles are widely known in the prior art. Among other things, they serve to improve the feeling of the foot or the cushioning in the shoe or to optimize the fit. In addition, special seasonal insoles are known, e.g. to absorb foot sweat in summer or to offer insulation against the cold of the ground in winter. It is generally a problem that the foot sweats in the shoe and, due to bacteria, there is an odor in shoes as well as in insoles. In order to prevent odor formation or the release of odor or at least improve the odor, a large number of variants are proposed in the prior art.
  • EP 0 272 690 A1 describes a three-layer insole that can be equipped with active ingredients both on the foot surface and on the sole surface.
  • multilayer insoles in which active ingredients are provided to improve odor, are for example in the EP 1 472 945 A2 as well as the EP 0 414 634 B1 described.
  • an insole which has a two-layer structure of base material and nonwoven cover having.
  • the basic material consists of one Staple fiber material with bicomponent fibers and absorbent fibers.
  • An active ingredient can be provided in the layers, in which case, for example, activated carbon particles are mentioned.
  • an insole as described above, in which the cover layer and the base layer consist of a staple fiber fleece and bicomponent fibers and absorbent cellulose-based fibers and / or hydrophilic synthetic fibers are contained in the cover layer and in the base layer and the insole comprises a combination has at least two different groups of active ingredients, the active ingredient groups being selected from the group of antimicrobial active ingredients, odor absorbents and odor masking substances, and at least one active ingredient group being assigned to both the top layer and the base layer.
  • the invention relates to an insole as specified in independent claim 1. Preferred embodiments of the invention are disclosed in the dependent claims.
  • the bicomponent fibers should preferably be provided with a weight proportion of at least 10% by weight, preferably at least 15% by weight, preferably at least 20% by weight, based on the total weight of the respective layer. More preferably, the bicomponent fibers have a weight proportion of the total weight of the respective layer of at most 60% by weight, preferably at most 55% by weight, more preferably at most 50% by weight, more preferably at most 45% by weight and more preferably at most 40 % By weight.
  • Bicomponent fiber as a synthetic fiber is made from two polymers with different physical or chemical properties.
  • the two polymers or the two components of a bicomponent fiber can be arranged differently within the fiber, such as, for example, next to one another, or in particular in a sheath-core arrangement.
  • the bicomponent fibers used for this invention preferably have a low-melting component and a higher-melting component, preferably in a sheath-core arrangement, the sheath then containing the low-melting component in the case of a sheath-core arrangement.
  • bicomponent fibers enables a more “point” -shaped or partial connection of the two layers, since a connection is only made via the lower melting component, in particular the sheath component.
  • the bicomponent fibers lead to glue point-like connections of the fibers within the layers and between the layers; In comparison to this, with a real gluing of the layers brought about by means of adhesive agents or with purely synthetic fibers that melt as a whole, a film-like intermediate layer is achieved.
  • the use of bicomponent fibers therefore also achieves a certain channel structure and thus improves the transfer of liquid from the top layer to the base layer, and thus also away from the foot into the insole.
  • the at least two groups of active ingredients are assigned to the top layer and the base layer. This is understood to mean both an arrangement in the layers and on the layers, and here in particular on the foot or sole surface.
  • the active ingredient groups can be distributed uniformly over the area and / or thickness of the base layer or the top layer, or areas can be provided which have less or no active ingredient at all compared to areas which contain more active ingredient or at all.
  • An arrangement on one of the layers is also understood to mean an arrangement in a coating.
  • an improved hygienic insole can be provided.
  • polyesters (PES), polyolefins, in particular PP, PE, and / or polyamides or combinations thereof are conceivable. It is particularly preferred to use polyester-based bicomponent fibers for the insole.
  • the polyester bicomponent fibers have a low-melting copolyester component and a higher one melting component made of polyester.
  • the polyester bicomponent fibers have a core made of polyester (PES) and a sheath made of copolyester.
  • the identical bicomponent fibers are particularly preferably used in the top layer and / or in the base layer.
  • the hydrophilic synthetic fibers provided in the nonwoven composition of the base layer and / or cover layer in addition to the bicomponent fibers preferably all have a higher melting temperature than the low-melting component of the bicomponent fibers. Because the melting point of the hydrophilic synthetic fibers and optionally further fibers provided in the cover layer and / or base layer is higher than the melting point of the at least one component of the bicomponent fibers, these hydrophilic synthetic fibers themselves are not melted.
  • the absorbent cellulosic fibers have no melting point anyway. With this fiber finish, the layers, in particular the top layer facing the foot, can create a textile feel and a dry microclimate.
  • fusion bonds can be formed between the fibers of the cover layer and the base layer, which connect the layers to one another, and also fusion bonds within of the individual layers are created, and thus also advantageously make a contribution to the partial consolidation of the layers, in particular the top layer, which is therefore beneficial for their abrasion resistance.
  • a high level of consolidation due to the large number of bicomponent fibers used The point-like connection points obtained reduce or even prevent the detachment of individual fibers from the fiber composite and are shown in good abrasion resistance.
  • the fiber strength of the bicomponent fibers is advantageously 1.0 to 6.5 dtex, in particular 1.2 to 4.0 dtex, and preferably 1.5 to 3.0 dtex.
  • the choice of fine fibers is particularly advantageous, since with the fineness of the fibers a higher proportion of point-like connections can be obtained, which is positive for the cohesion of the fibers and the layers and is therefore associated with better abrasion resistance.
  • the fiber length of the bicomponent fiber is advantageously chosen from 10 to 80 mm, in particular from 20 to 70 mm and preferably from 40 to 50 mm. This advantageously enables penetration of the respective layer and production of connections to the fiber surfaces.
  • fluff pulp, cotton, viscose or combinations thereof can be used as absorbent cellulosic fibers.
  • hydrophilic synthetic fibers fibers based on a polymer based on polyolefins, in particular PP or PE, based on a polymer based on polyester, based on a polymer based on polyamides, or combinations thereof can be used, it being possible for the synthetic fibers to be provided with a hydrophilic finish.
  • polyester-based fibers be it as a bicomponent fiber and / or as a hydrophilic synthetic fiber, also proves to be particularly advantageous, in particular because of their structurally elastic behavior. It there is a volumetric property that can be attributed to the resilience of these fibers.
  • the base layer and the cover layer differ at least with regard to one property.
  • the property can be taken from the group of fiber composition, weight per unit area, thickness, density, water retention capacity.
  • the properties of the layers can be matched to one another even better by using layers that complement one another.
  • the top layer can be designed in such a way that it draws sweat away from the foot as quickly as possible and transfers it to the base layer.
  • the top layer contains 25-35% by weight of bicomponent fibers, in particular based on polyester, at least 20% by weight, preferably at least 30% by weight of hydrophilic synthetic fibers, in particular polyester fibers, and optionally / optionally additionally up to 50% by weight , in particular up to 40% by weight of cellulose-based fibers, in particular viscose.
  • the base layer has 35-60% by weight of bicomponent fibers, preferably on a polyester basis, at least 40% by weight of cellulose-based fibers, in particular cotton, and optionally / optionally additionally up to 10% by weight of synthetic fibers, in particular polyester fibers.
  • top layer and / or the base layer are combined before the laminate is formed Solidification process are subjected.
  • Known consolidation processes such as thermal consolidation processes, calendering, mechanical needling, water jet needling, etc. can be used.
  • Preferably combinations of the aforementioned consolidation processes are used.
  • Particularly preferred is water jet needling or mechanical needling with subsequent thermal consolidation.
  • mechanical needling, in particular of the cover layer can improve the porosity of the cover layer and thus the ability to pass liquid through.
  • the insole has a soaking time of a maximum of 20 seconds, in particular a maximum of 15 seconds and in particular a maximum of 10 seconds. Together with the coordinated structure of the top layer and base layer, this enables the dry microclimate on the foot to be achieved particularly well.

Furthermore, it can be favorable if the cover layer is able to distribute the liquid in the lateral direction, that is to say in the surface of the cover layer, in order to use the capacity of the base layer for liquid absorption as uniformly and thus optimally as possible.
