GR1009709B - Method for adhering self-adhesive insulation tape on shoe surfaces - Google Patents

Abstract

The present invention relates to a method consisting in adhering self-adhesive tapes to embossed and non-uniform shoe surfaces. The present invention succeeds in adhering a waterproof self-adhesive tape (Fig. 1, A) to the areas where sole and uppers are united in order to deter the water influx into shoes (Fig. 1, B) - (Fig. 1, C). More precisely, after sewing the sole with uppers (Fig. 1, D), the shoe body is mounted on a machine equipped with a waterproof self-adhesive tape-feeding guide (Fig. 1, A ); in combination with pressure and heat, the self-adhesive tape adheres to the seam-junction area (Fig. 1, B) in an embossed manner, preventing water from penetrating the shoe.

METHOD OF GLUING ADHESIVE TAPE

SEALING ON SHOES SURFACES

DESCRIPTION

The present invention relates to a method of applying adhesive tapes to embossed and uneven shoe surfaces.

To this day, there are machines on the market, which apply waterproofing tapes at the point of its joining

pano leather of a shoe with its sole. However, with conventional machines these tapes can only be applied to flat surfaces, which has the result that the uneven parts of a shoe's pano leather are left without the protection of these tapes and only with the seam and thus the user,

if he happens to wear shoes with an uneven upper surface in the rain or walks and steps on a puddle of water or any other liquid, this liquid enters the shoe and creates an unpleasant sensation for the wearer.

In this regard, the present invention achieves the adhesion

waterproofing tape (Drawing 1, A) in the areas of the seam (Drawing 1, B) and joining the sole (Drawing 1, C) with the panodermis (Drawing 1, D), in such a way as to prevent the ingress of water into the shoe. Specifically, after the seam - union (Drawing 1, B) of the sole (Drawing 1, C) with the panodermis (Drawing 1, D) is placed

the body in a machine, which operates with a guide for feeding waterproof adhesive tape (Figure 1, A), and in combination with pressure and heat is embossed in the seam-joint area (Figure 1, B) of the above adhesive tape, which has as a result of preventing the inflow of water by waterproofing the point where panodermis and sole join. The advantage of the present invention is that it achieves absolute waterproofing of the shoe at any point of the shoe, specifically at those points (Figure 1, B) where the sole and the outer skin meet.

Claims (3)

1. The present invention achieves the application of waterproofing tape in the areas of the seam and joining of the sole to the outer skin, in such a way as to prevent the inflow of water into the shoe. 2. After sewing - joining (Figure 1, B) the sole (Figure 1, C) with the panodermis (Figure 1, D) the body is placed in a machine, which works with a guide to feed waterproof adhesive tape (Figure 1, A ), and in combination with pressure and heat is embossed in the area of the seam - joint (Figure 1, B) of above adhesive tape, which has the effect of preventing the inflow of water by waterproofing the point where the upper and sole join. 3. The advantage of the present invention is that it achieves absolute waterproofing of the shoe at any point footwear.
