Sistema de amortiguación para suelas de calzado.Cushioning system for soles footwear.
La presente invención se refiere a un nuevo sistema de amortiguación para suelas de calzado, en especial para la zona posterior de las mismas, la correspondiente al tacón, en orden a reducir o absorber la fuerza de impacto que se genera sobre el talón, al andar o correr, con la consecuente mejora de las prestaciones biomecánicas y ergonómicas del calzado en su conjunto, frente al usuario del mismo.The present invention relates to a new cushioning system for shoe soles, especially for the back of them, the one corresponding to the heel, in order to reduce or absorb the impact force generated on the heel, when walking or running, with the consequent improvement of Biomechanical and ergonomic performance of footwear as a whole, in front of the user of it.
El objeto de la invención es conseguir, paralelamente al citado efecto amortiguador, un efecto rebote que facilite el andar. Es también objeto de la invención conseguir que el efecto amortiguador sea regulable al objeto de adecuarse a los gustos y preferencias de cada usuario.The object of the invention is to achieve, in parallel to the aforementioned damping effect, a rebound effect that make walking easier It is also the object of the invention to achieve that the damping effect is adjustable in order to adapt to the tastes and preferences of each user.
Evidentemente, el dotar a la suela de un calzado de características elásticas, especialmente a nivel del tacón, supone una mejora en la confortabilidad del calzado, al amortiguar los impactos que se producen al apoyar el pie en el suelo.Obviously, giving the sole of a shoe of elastic characteristics, especially at the heel level, supposes an improvement in the comfort of the footwear, when cushioning the impacts that occur when supporting the foot on the ground.
En esta línea existen diferentes soluciones, que van desde la utilización de materiales elásticamente compresibles, hasta la utilización de cámaras de aire, pasando por muelles de diferentes tipos, etc.In this line there are different solutions, which range from the use of elastically compressible materials, until the use of air chambers, passing by springs of different types, etc.
Con independencia de su mayor o menor eficacia, ya que en muchos casos los resultados funcionales son dudosos, e incluso en ocasiones se trata de meras apariencias para captar la atención de los usuarios, todos los sistemas de amortiguación conocidos presentan como denominador común el hecho de que los medios elásticos que confieren a los mismos su carácter amortiguador están preestablecidos de antemano, es decir, si se trata por ejemplo de utilizar resortes, éstos están tarados previamente a una tensión de trabajo determinada, que no permite posibilidad alguna de variación de acuerdo con las características del usuario, como por ejemplo de su peso corporal, de su forma de andar, etc.Regardless of its greater or lesser effectiveness, since in many cases the functional results are doubtful, and even sometimes it is mere appearances to capture the user attention, all damping systems acquaintances present as common denominator the fact that elastic means that give them their damping character are preset in advance, that is, if it is treated by example of using springs, these are previously calibrated to a determined working voltage, which does not allow any possibility of variation according to user characteristics, such as for example of your body weight, your way of walking, etc.
Además, los citados medios amortiguadores condicionan de forma definitiva la estética del calzado.In addition, the aforementioned damping means definitively condition the aesthetics of footwear.
El sistema que la invención propone, basa su filosofía funcional en el efecto y fuerza de la interacción de los campos magnéticos de los imanes permanentes, de manera que fragmentando el tacón de la suela en dos sectores superpuestos y convenientemente distanciados, y estableciendo y fijando convenientemente a los mismos sendos imanes permanentes, con sus polaridades del mismo signo enfrentadas, se consigue una fuerza de repulsión, que como es sabido resulta inversamente proporcional al cuadrado de la distancia que los separa, consiguiéndose a su vez un efecto de levitación, del que se derivan a su vez unas óptimas condiciones de amortiguación.The system proposed by the invention bases its functional philosophy on the effect and strength of the interaction of magnetic fields of permanent magnets, so that fragmenting the heel of the sole into two overlapping sectors and conveniently distanced, and setting and fixing conveniently to the same permanent magnets, with their polarities of the same sign faced, a force of repulsion, which as is known is inversely proportional to square of the distance that separates them, getting in turn a levitation effect, from which optimal ones are derived damping conditions.
De acuerdo con otra de las características de la invención se ha previsto que los citados imanes permanentes, con una potencia magnética adecuada, estén montados sobre resortes de ballesta, que quedan convenientemente encajados y fijados en el interior hueco del tacón, con la especial particularidad de que tales resortes de ballesta están asistidos por un conjunto tornillo-tuerca, que permite regular a voluntad del usuario el grado de tensión a suministrar por los mismas, en este caso con una deformabilidad lineal, de manera que el efecto amortiguador del sistema, así como el efecto de rebote durante el desarrollo de una actividad, pueden ser regulados a criterio del usuario, en función de sus preferencias o de la propia actividad a realizar, consiguiéndose en cualquier caso unos óptimos resultados desde el punto de vista biomecánico y ergonómico.According to another of the characteristics of the It is intended that said permanent magnets, with a suitable magnetic power, are mounted on springs of crossbow, which are conveniently fitted and fixed in the hollow interior of the heel, with the special feature that such springs springs are assisted by a set screw-nut, which allows to regulate at will of the user the degree of tension to be supplied by them, in this case with a linear deformability, so that the effect system buffer, as well as the rebound effect during the development of an activity, can be regulated at the discretion of the user, depending on your preferences or the activity itself perform, achieving optimal results in any case from the biomechanical and ergonomic point of view.
El sistema permite que los mecanismos de amortiguación resulten mayoritariamente ocultos, de manera que su invisibilidad permite mejorar y cambiar la estética del calzado, adecuándola a cualquier línea de diseño.The system allows the mechanisms of damping are mostly hidden, so that your invisibility allows to improve and change the aesthetics of footwear, adapting it to any design line.
Para complementar la descripción que se está realizando y con objeto de ayudar a una mejor comprensión de las características del invento, de acuerdo con un ejemplo preferente de realización práctica del mismo, se acompaña como parte integrante de dicha descripción, un juego de dibujos en donde con carácter ilustrativo y no limitativo, se ha representado lo siguiente:To complement the description that is being performing and in order to help a better understanding of the characteristics of the invention, according to a preferred example of practical realization of it, is accompanied as part member of that description, a set of drawings where with illustrative and non-limiting nature, what has been represented next:
La figura 1.- Muestra un despiece en perspectiva de una suela de calzado provista del sistema de amortiguación que constituye el objeto de la presente invención.Figure 1.- Shows an exploded perspective. of a sole of footwear provided with the cushioning system that It constitutes the object of the present invention.
La figura 2.- Muestra el perfil del conjunto de piezas de la figura anterior, debidamente montadas configurando la suela, la cual aparece a su vez acoplada al corte que complementa el calzado.Figure 2.- Shows the profile of the set of pieces of the previous figure, properly assembled configuring the sole, which appears in turn coupled to the cut that complements the footwear.
En las figuras reseñadas, especialmente en la figura 2, se ha representado un determinado ejemplo de realización práctica para un calzado al que se ha aplicado la invención, siendo de señalar que la configuración de dicho calzado obedece a un mero ejemplo de realización práctica, que puede variar sin prácticamente limitación alguna al respecto, y sin que ello afecte a la esencia de la invención.In the figures outlined, especially in the Figure 2, a certain embodiment example has been represented practice for footwear to which the invention has been applied, being to point out that the configuration of said footwear is due to a mere practical embodiment example, which can vary without practically any limitation in this regard, and without affecting the essence of the invention.
Sea cual fuere la configuración del corte (1) del calzado, así como la configuración de su suela (2), el diseño de la cara inferior de esta última, etc, el sistema de la invención se centra en el hecho de que dicha suela (2) a nivel del tacón (3), genera una amplia cámara (4), preferentemente abierta hacia las zonas laterales de la suela, tal como muestra la figura 1, aunque también podría estar cerrada, cámara (4) en la que, de acuerdo con la esencialidad de la invención, se establecen una pareja de imanes permanentes (5-5'), coaxiales, enfrentados a través de polos coincidentes, de manera que entre ellos se genera un considerable esfuerzo repulsivo, situándose obviamente uno de dichos imanes (5) sobre la base superior de la cámara (4), y el otro (5') sobre la base inferior, y tendiendo en todo momento a mantener al tacón (3) en su conjunto en condiciones de máxima altura para la cámara (4).Whatever the configuration of the cut (1) of footwear, as well as the configuration of its sole (2), the design of the underside of the latter, etc., the system of the invention it focuses on the fact that said sole (2) at the heel level (3), generates a wide chamber (4), preferably open towards lateral areas of the sole, as shown in figure 1, although it could also be closed, camera (4) in which, according to the essentiality of the invention, a pair of magnets are established permanent (5-5 '), coaxial, faced through of matching poles, so that between them a considerable repulsive effort, obviously placing one of these magnets (5) on the upper base of the chamber (4), and the other (5 ') on the lower base, and tending at all times to keep the heel (3) as a whole in conditions of maximum height for the camera (4).
En el sistema participa además un resorte de ballesta (6), destinado a encajar ajustadamente en la cámara (4) y con una triple finalidad, por un lado fijar y posicionar convenientemente los imanes permanentes (5-5'), en todo momento, por otro lado complementar el efecto de dichos imanes por su propia naturaleza elástica y como un complemento amortiguador, y finalmente permitir una regulación en la amortiguación del sistema, para adecuarla a las necesidades de preferencias del usuario, merced a que los dos brazos del resorte de ballesta (6) están relacionados mediante un tornillo (7) y su complementaria tuerca (8), accesibles a través de un pequeño orificio (9) de la base del tacón (3).The system also includes a spring of leaf spring (6), designed to fit tightly into the chamber (4) and with a triple purpose, on the one hand fix and position conveniently permanent magnets (5-5 '), in at all times, on the other hand complement the effect of these magnets by its own elastic nature and as a complement shock absorber, and finally allow regulation on the damping of the system, to adapt it to the needs of user preferences, thanks to the two spring arms of crossbow (6) are related by means of a screw (7) and its complementary nut (8), accessible through a small hole (9) of the heel base (3).
En la práctica y de acuerdo con el ejemplo mostrado en la figura 1, en el sistema pueden participar dos flejes (6-6'), destinados a adaptarse entre sí con interposición de los imanes permanentes (5-5') duplicando el efecto ballesta y facilitando la fijación de dichos imanes permanentes, disponiendo uno de estos resortes de ballesta (6') de cuellos interiores (10), de embocadura estrangulada, para el paso del tornillo (7) y asentamiento de la tuera (8) y de la cabeza (11) de dicho tornillo (7), a la vez que incorpora también en la zona extrema de sus ramas laterales patillas troqueladas (12) para acoplamiento a presión de los imanes permanentes (5-5').In practice and according to the example shown in figure 1, two strips can participate in the system (6-6 '), intended to adapt to each other with interposition of permanent magnets (5-5 ') doubling the crossbow effect and facilitating the fixation of said permanent magnets, having one of these springs springs (6 ') of inner necks (10), of strangulated mouth, for the passage of the screw (7) and settlement of the tuera (8) and of the head (11) of said screw (7), while also incorporating the extreme area of its side branches sideburned pins (12) for pressure coupling of permanent magnets (5-5 ').
Esta estructuración conlleva que el calzado, en la zona del antepié, ha de ser una material de alta elasticidad y elevada fuerza de recuperación, siendo además resistente al desgaste, para recoger el rebote del tacón e imprimir fácil y cómodamente un gran impulso al antepié.This structuring implies that footwear, in the forefoot area must be a high elastic material and high recovery force, being also resistant to wear, to pick up the heel bounce and print easy and comfortably a great boost to the forefoot.
De acuerdo con esta estructuración, cuando el usuario desarrolla las operaciones de andar o correr, se producen los siguientes efectos:According to this structuring, when the user develops walking or running operations, occur The following effects:
En primer lugar el impacto del talón con el suelo queda amortiguado, absorbiendo la mayor parte de la energía por efecto de la aproximación de los imanes y de la flexión de la ballesta, produciéndose una deformación suave y acumulando energía el sistema.First the impact of the heel with the soil is cushioned, absorbing most of the energy due to the approach of the magnets and the flexion of the crossbow, producing a gentle deformation and accumulating energy the system.
En el paso del talón al medio pie y antepié, continuando con el movimiento, se reduce sensiblemente el tiempo dado que mientras se está produciendo la amortiguación (alargada), el pie va avanzando, por lo que se reduce el tiempo del impás entre el talón y el antepié.In the heel step to the middle foot and forefoot, continuing with the movement, time is significantly reduced since while damping (elongated) is occurring, the foot is advancing, so the time of the moment between Heel and forefoot.
Finalmente, cuando el sistema tiende a volver a su posición original, devuelve la energía acumulada, el antepié se encuentra en disposición de impulso del suelo, por lo que es catapultado con esta energía complementaria acumulada, que es aplicada al pie en la zona del talón, como si de un rebote se tratara.Finally, when the system tends to return to its original position, returns the accumulated energy, the forefoot is found in ground impulse arrangement, so it is catapulted with this accumulated complementary energy, which is applied to the foot in the heel area, as if from a bounce will try.
Se facilita de esta manera la acción de andar de forma muy considerable, obteniéndose como resultado no sólo un calzado estéticamente atractivo y novedoso, sino además confortable, sin el menor riesgo de lesiones para los pies del usuario y con un acusado incremento de rendimiento.This facilitates the walking action of very considerable form, resulting in not only a aesthetically attractive and novel footwear, but also comfortable, without the slightest risk of injury to the feet of the user and with a marked increase in performance.
