Description

Shoe rack.

Background of the invention 1. Field of the invention

The invention relates to shoe shelves and more particularly to a shelf for shoes of the type that they have adapted means to adjust in height between the supports of the shoes of the same subset and that is very adaptable for Use the space completely.

2. Description of the related technique

Typically, pairs of shoes are stored In a shoemaker. The conventional shoemaker has a large space of storage. Therefore, the conventional shoemaker can occupy A great space in a room. In addition, the internal space of the Conventional shoemaker is divided into multiple rows for Store shoes However, these pairs of shoes can be of Different styles with different heights. The space of single row storage is not used effectively if only high-heeled shoes are stored in it, pairs are stored of shoes from side to side in the remaining space. The shelves of Conventional shoes also have the same disadvantage.

The invention arises to mitigate and / or obviate the disadvantage of the conventional shoe rack / shoe rack.

The document US-A-5 127 342 describes a system of shelves comprising adjustable overlapping brackets in distance from each other and set at the desired position through a conical collar system comprising longitudinal edges, annular projections and a pole with a plurality of grooves annular spaced regularly.

Summary of the invention

It is therefore an object of the invention provide a shoe rack that has adapted means to fit in height between shoe holders of the subset in order of using the space completely.

The above and other objects, characteristics and advantages of the invention will be apparent from the following Detailed description along with the attached drawings.

Detailed description of the invention

Referring to Figs. 1 to 3, it shows a subset of shoe support according to a First preferred embodiment of the invention. The subset of shoe support comprises a lower support 10 and a support top 20. Next, each item is analyzed in detail component.

The lower support 10 has substantially sole shape and comprises a sleeve 11 that passes longitudinally through a rear portion and extends upwards a default distance A diameter channel 116 is provided reduced to divide an internal space of the sleeve 11 into a lower space 113 and an upper space 115 in communication with the lower space 113. An internal wall of the space is formed upper 115 with a section of longitudinal edges 114. It they form a plurality of longitudinal slits 111 in one portion upper sleeve 11 to make the upper portion flexible. Be it forms an upper annular projection 112A around the mouth of the upper space 115 and extends inwards. It forms a 112B annular lower projection around an intermediate portion of the inner wall of the upper portion of the sleeve 11.

The upper support 20 is also shaped substantially sole and is inclined towards its rear. He upper support 20 comprises a hollow cylinder 21 that passes longitudinally through a rear portion and extends down a predetermined distance. A surface is formed external lower support 20 with a ribbed section longitudinal 212. An annular upper groove 211A is formed at one point of connection of the upper support 20 with the inclined section thereof. An annular bottom groove 211B is formed around a portion intermediate of the outer surface of the upper support 20.

The cylinder 21 has an external diameter that is substantially the same as the internal diameter of the sleeve 11. Therefore, the cylinder 21 is adapted to be fully inserted in the sleeve 11 so that it is frictionally held so rotating to the same coupling the upper groove 211A with the 112A upper projection and 211B lower groove with projection lower 112B respectively (see Fig. 2). In addition, in Fig. 2 a distance between the lower support 10 and the support is shown top 20 that can be adjusted depending on the application pushing the upper support 20 up to engage the groove bottom 211B with the upper projection 112A (see Fig. 3).

Referring to Fig. 4, a shoe rack 60 that has a shelf 61 to divide the internal space thereof in an upper compartment mounted with at least one subset of shoe support (only one shown) that has two shoes resting on the lower support 10 and the support upper 20 respectively, and a lower compartment with at minus a subset of shoe support (only one shown) which has two shoes resting on the lower support 10 and the upper support 20 respectively in the form of a first configuration of the first preferred embodiment of the invention.

Referring to Figs. 5 to 9, it shows a second configuration of the first embodiment preferred of the invention and then its details are detailed features. The outer diameter of a section tube 31 circular is substantially the same as an internal diameter of the reduced member and inner diameter of cylinder 21. In addition, it adapts a flexible ring 311 to put it in tube 31. So therefore, the tube 31 is adapted to pass through the sleeve 11 and the cylinder 21 and the flexible ring 311 is driven against the lower part of the reduced limb. The provision of the ring flexible 311 is to improve the friction fixation of the lower support 10 and the upper support 20 with the tube 31. In addition to the feature to adjust the distance between the bottom bracket 10 and the upper support 20 as described above and being adapted the subassemblies of support for shoes to assemble so that they are aligned longitudinally with each other (see a shelf 30 of Fig. 8), any subset of support for shoes is adapted to orient approximately 90 degrees with with respect to another adjacent one turning frictionally on itself on tube 31 when the shoe rack is arranged in a corner of the room (see Fig. 9). This one can book space to store larger shoes on the supports 20 higher when such a need arises.

Referring to Fig. 10, the shelf for shoes shown in Fig. 8 is also provided with a transparent dust cover with zipper 50 around the same according to a third configuration of the first preferred embodiment of the invention.

Referring to Fig. 11, a expanded rounded member 40 at the upper or lower end of the tube 31. In addition, each rounded expanded member 40 extends laterally to attach to a wall. This shoe rack it is mounted on the wall according to a fourth configuration of the First preferred embodiment of the invention.

Referring to Figs. 12 to 13, it shows a second preferred embodiment of the invention. TO Next, the characteristics of the second are detailed preferred embodiment Post 31 is removed. The shelf for shoes comprises a tube 32 of rectangular section. They form a plurality of horizontal slits 321 along a surface of tube 32. A hook 12 is formed at the rear of the support bottom 10. Hook 12 is adapted to be inserted into the slot 321 to mount the shoe support subset on the tube 32

Referring to Fig. 14, a embodiment that is not within the scope of the claims. TO Next, the characteristics of the third are detailed preferred embodiment The upper supports 20 are removed and each 10 'bottom bracket adapts to support a pair of shoes (no shown) on it.

Although the invention described herein document has been described by means of specific embodiments, numerous modifications and variations can be made thereto by those skilled in the art without departing from the scope of the invention set forth in the claims.
