Object of the invention

La presente invención se refiere a una almohadilla plantar que ha sido perfeccionado en determinados aspectos estructurales de la misma, con el fin de conseguir nuevas prestaciones y ventajas respecto de otras conocidas en el mercado.The present invention relates to a plantar pad that has been perfected in certain structural aspects of it, in order to get new benefits and advantages over others known in the market.

La almohadilla tiene por objeto proteger ciertas zonas de apoyos de los pies, ya sea la zona plantar, lateral u otras zonas de apoyo, así como la zona del juanete correspondiente al dedo grueso del pie.The pad is intended to protect certain areas of foot supports, either the plantar, lateral or other support areas, as well as the corresponding bunion area to the thick toe.

El objeto de la invención es proporcionar una almohadilla plantar del tipo referido que incorpora en una sola pieza la almohadilla propiamente dicha y el medio de protección del juanete.The object of the invention is to provide a plantar pad of the type referred to incorporated into a single piece the pad itself and the protection means of the bunion.

Background of the invention

En el modelo de utilidad 200400096 del mismo solicitante se describe una almohadilla plantar mediante el que se solucionan los problemas o inconvenientes que presentan las almohadillas convencionales, estando basada esa almohadilla plantar en que su constitución comprende un núcleo o alma de silicona, preferentemente un extracto de caléndula, con una funda envolvente de tejido, constituyendo un medio que situado convenientemente sobre la zona del pie que se pretende proteger proporciona un gran confort al usuario, habiéndose eliminado los efectos de cansancio para los pies, resultando además una almohadilla antideslizante, anti-inflamatorio, anti-séptica y fungicida, por lo que resulta óptima en cualquiera de los casos en que sea necesario proteger ciertas zonas de apoyo del pie, ya sea la zona plantar, el talón, los dedos, etc.In the 200400096 utility model thereof applicant describes a plantar pad by means of which they solve the problems or inconveniences that the conventional pads, that plantar pad being based in which its constitution comprises a silicone core or soul, preferably a calendula extract, with an enveloping sheath of fabric, constituting a medium that conveniently located on the area of the foot that is intended to protect provides a great user comfort, having eliminated the effects of fatigue for the feet, resulting in a non-slip pad, anti-inflammatory, anti-septic and fungicide, so it is optimal in any of the cases in that it is necessary to protect certain areas of foot support, either the plantar area, heel, fingers, etc.

También se conocen almohadillas previstas para proteger la zona del juanete correspondiente al dedo grueso del pie.Pads intended for protect the bunion area corresponding to the thick finger of the foot.

Sin embargo, tanto la almohadilla plantar como la de protección de juanete son elementos que se comercializan por separado y de forma independiente, requiriendo por lo tanto dos medios de sujeción cuando quieran utilizarse ambas piezas, lo que supone una incomodidad para el usuario, una carestía mayor en la fabricación, etc.However, both the plantar pad and the Bunion protection are items that are marketed by separately and independently, therefore requiring two fastening means when both pieces want to be used, which It is an inconvenience for the user, a major shortage in the manufacturing, etc.

Description of the invention

La almohadilla plantar que se preconiza, siendo del tipo de la referida en el apartado anterior, presenta la particularidad de que incluye una tira en "Y" unida por sus tres extremos a tres tramos correspondientes al contorno de la almohadilla, formando con ésta una especie de "braga" que permite la sujeción sobre el pie del usuario sin más que introducir el dedo grueso a través de una de las aberturas, y de los restantes dedos en la otra abertura, haciéndose pasar previamente el pie por la abertura mayor que define la especie de braga correspondiente a la almohadilla propiamente dicha.The plantar pad that is recommended, being of the type referred to in the previous section, presents the particularity that includes a "Y" strip joined by its three ends to three sections corresponding to the contour of the pad, forming with it a kind of "panty" that it allows the support on the user's foot with nothing more than to introduce the thick finger through one of the openings, and the remaining fingers in the other opening, pre-running the foot through the largest opening that defines the kind of panty corresponding to the pad itself.

La tira que con la almohadilla forma la especie de braga, está constituida también por un núcleo de silicona con una envolvente de tejido, preferentemente de Lycra®, como es el caso de la propia almohadilla, pero con la particularidad de que esa tira que determina la braga con el cuerpo de la almohadilla presenta el núcleo de silicona de notable menor grosor que el de la propia almohadilla, habiéndose previsto que de esa tira únicamente la parte que va a constituir la protección de juanete es la que incluya el núcleo de silicona, ya que el resto de la tira estará constituido únicamente por el material tejido o fibra que se utiliza como envolvente del núcleo de silicona.The strip that forms the species with the pad of panty, it is also constituted by a silicone core with a tissue wrap, preferably Lycra®, as is the case with the pad itself, but with the particularity that that strip which determines the panty with the body of the pad presents the silicone core of notable thickness less than that of the own pad, having anticipated that of that strip only the part that will constitute the protection of bunion is the one that include the silicone core, since the rest of the strip will be consisting solely of the woven material or fiber that Used as silicone core envelope.

De esta forma se consigue en una única pieza dos elementos que van a cumplir dos funciones distintas, una como protector de apoyo para el pie del usuario, y otra como protector del juanete, quedando perfectamente sujeta y afianzada en el pie, ya que la especie de braga que constituye el conjunto permite su adaptación y sujeción al pie, concretamente a la parte inferior, parte superior, dedo grueso y los restantes dedos del pie.In this way it is achieved in a single piece two elements that will fulfill two different functions, one like support protector for the user's foot, and another as a protector of the bunion, being perfectly held and secured in the foot, since the kind of panty that constitutes the set allows its adaptation and support to the foot, specifically to the bottom, upper part, thick toe and the remaining toes.

El gel de silicona que constituye el núcleo de la almohadilla y del propio protector del juanete presenta unas características aptas para aliviar tanto los dolores plantares como los dolores producidos por roces inapropiados sobre el "Hallux Valgus" que corresponde lógicamente al denominado comúnmente "juanete".The silicone gel that constitutes the core of the pad and the bunion protector itself has characteristics that are suitable for alleviating both the plantar pains and the pains caused by inappropriate rubbing on the " Hallux Valgus " which logically corresponds to the commonly called "bunion."

El grosor de la parte de la tira que va a constituir el protector del juanete, al ser notablemente inferior al de la almohadilla, permite beneficiarse de las ventajas del gel de silicona como distribuidor de cargas e inhibidor de roces, sin presiones complementarias.The thickness of the part of the strip that is going to constitute the bunion protector, being remarkably inferior to the pad, allows you to benefit from the advantages of the gel Silicone as a load distributor and friction inhibitor, without complementary pressures.

La almohadilla en su conjunto constituirá una pieza lavable en agua tibia, no requiriendo plancha de ningún tipo y dejándose secar simplemente al aire.The pad as a whole will constitute a warm water washable piece, not requiring iron of any kind and letting it dry simply in the air.
