Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
この発明は、乳幼児用靴に関するものであり、特に乳幼児の足にやさしい乳幼児用靴に関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
乳幼児用靴は、乳幼児が歩き始めの段階から使用されるが、その使用目的は、足の保護のためである。
【0003】
乳幼児期における足の成長は、歩き始めの1歳前後から6歳または7歳程度になるまで続くといわれている。特に、比較的低年齢の乳児期において、足を健全な状態で成長させることが重要である。
【0004】
図1は、特開昭47−8680号公報に開示された「歩き始めの幼児用靴」を示している。図示する幼児用靴1は、乳幼児の足の下に位置する靴底部2と、乳幼児の足の甲を覆う舌片部3と、乳幼児の足の一方側面を覆い舌片部3上に部分的に重なる第1側皮部4と、乳幼児の足の他方側面を覆い前記舌片部3上に部分的に重なる第2側皮部5とを備える。
【0005】
第1側皮部4および第2側皮部5は、舌片部3上で互いに対向する端縁部を有し、この端縁部に靴紐を通すための穴6が設けられている。図示してないが、穴6を通る靴紐によって、第1側皮部4および第2側皮部5を舌片部3上で接続し、乳幼児の足をホールドする。
【0006】
【特許文献1】
特開昭47−8680号公報(図1)
【0007】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
図1に示した幼児用靴の場合、例えば次の問題点を指摘できる。
【0008】
(1)側皮部4と舌片部3とは、靴1のつま先部分から後退した図中Aで示す領域で縫い付けられている。乳幼児の足を靴に入れる場合には、舌片部3を前方に捲りあげるが、領域Aの位置よりも前方に位置する部分は捲りあげることができない。そのため、足を入れるための開口部の大きさをそれ程大きくすることができない。乳幼児の足はふにゃふにゃで柔らかいので、それ程大きくない開口部を通して靴の中に足を突っ込ませて履かせる行為は、乳幼児に対して痛みを与える。
【0009】
(2)領域Aの内面には、側皮部4と舌片部3との重なりの段差が現れ、さらにそれらを縫い付けている縫い目が現れる。この段差および縫い目の部分は、乳幼児の足の中足骨の頭頂部に当たる位置である。乳幼児の足はふにゃふにゃで脂肪の塊である。そのため、歩行時に体重をかけると、足の幅は横に広がる。特に、中足骨の頭頂部は、乳幼児が歩行時に体重を乗せたときに最も横に広がる部分である。図1に示した幼児用靴の場合、横に広がった足の部分に段差および縫い目があたるので、柔らかい乳幼児の足を傷めるおそれがある。
【0010】
(3)ふにゃふにゃの乳幼児の足の甲は、体重がのっている状態では横に広がり、宙に浮いている状態では高くなる。歩行動作では、着地して足に体重がかかっている状態と、宙に浮いている状態とが繰り返される。そのため、第1側皮部4と第2側皮部5とを靴紐で強く締めて足の甲の部分を舌片部3で上から強く押さえるようにすると、歩行動作時に足の甲を圧迫する状況が生まれる。
【0011】
(4)図1に示す靴の場合、第1側皮部4および第2側皮部5は、靴1を履いた乳幼児の足首の近くにまで延びる高さを有している。特に歩き始めでよちよち歩きの乳幼児は、足首がまだぐらぐらであるので、靴紐をきつく締めて足首をしっかりとホールドする必要がある。しかし、足首をしっかりホールドすると、第1側皮部4および第2側皮部5が強く乳幼児の踝に当たるようになるので、踝に痛みを感じさせてしまう。また、踝を強く締め付けると、足首のスムーズな動きを妨げる。
【0012】
この発明の目的は、柔らかい乳幼児の足を傷めないように工夫した乳幼児用靴を提供することである。
【0013】
【課題を解決するための手段】
この発明は、乳幼児の足の下に位置する靴底部と、乳幼児の足の甲を覆う舌片部と、乳幼児の足の一方側面を覆い前記舌片部上に部分的に重なる第1側皮部と、乳幼児の足の他方側面を覆い前記舌片部上に部分的に重なる第2側皮部とを備えた乳幼児用靴を前提とし、次のことを特徴とする。
【0014】
すなわち、舌片部の前方端は、靴底部の前方端に連結される。第1および第2側皮部は、舌片部上で互いに対向する端縁部を有する。第1および第2側皮部の端縁部は、舌片部上に位置して靴底部の前方端にまで延びている。第1および第2側皮部の端縁部は、それぞれ、靴底部の前方端に近い前方部分が舌片部に縫い付けられている。
【0015】
好ましくは、第1および第2側皮部の端縁部と、舌片部とを縫い付けた縫い目は、当該靴を履いた乳幼児の指先の上に位置する。
【0016】
一つの実施形態では、第1側皮部の端縁部と、第2側皮部の端縁部とを接続する接続バンドを備える。この接続バンドは、その一方端が第1側皮部の内面に固定され、その他方端が第2側皮部の外面に取り外し可能に接合されている。
【0017】
複数の接続バンドを備えるようにしてもよい。具体的には、乳幼児用靴は、第1側皮部の端縁部と、第2側皮部の端縁部とを接続する第1、第2および第3の接続バンドを備える。第1の接続バンドは足首から遠くに位置し、第3の接続バンドは足首に最も近く位置し、第2の接続バンドは中間に位置する。第1、第2および第3の接続バンドは、それぞれ、その一方端が前記第1側皮部の内面に固定され、その他方端が第2側皮部の外面に取り外し可能に接合されている。
【0018】
他の実施形態では、乳幼児用靴は、第1側皮部の端縁部と、第2側皮部の端縁部とを接続する第1および第2の接続バンドを備える。第1の接続バンドは、足首から遠くに位置し、その一方端が第1側皮部の内面に固定され、その他方端が第2側皮部の外面に取り外し可能に接合されている。第2の接続バンドは、足首から近くに位置し、その一方端が第1側皮部の外面に固定され、その他方端が第2側皮部の外面に取り外し可能に接合されている。
【0019】
好ましくは、接続バンドの他方端と第2側皮部の外面とを取り外し可能に接合する手段は、面ファスナである。
【0020】
好ましくは、乳幼児用靴の背面部に、指で掴むための掴み帯が取付けられている。掴み帯は、その下方端が靴に固定され、固定されていない掴み部分の長さが2cm以上である。一つの実施形態では、掴み帯の上端の高さは、乳幼児用靴の上端の高さとほぼ同じか、それよりも低い。
【0021】
上記各構成の作用効果については、発明の実施の形態の項で説明する。
【0022】
【発明の実施の形態】
図2は、足の骨解剖図である。足の骨は、大きく分けて3つの領域、すなわち指節骨(足趾骨)の領域Bと、中足骨の領域Cと、足根骨の領域Dとからなる。足前方の中足骨アーチ10は、いわゆる足の甲のアーチであり、真のアーチではなく、負荷をかけることにより変化する。大人の場合、歩行時に、自重により中足骨アーチ10はつぶれる。足根部の横アーチ11は、大人の場合、自重によるアーチの変化はない。
【0023】
乳幼児の足はふにゃふにゃで脂肪が多いため、地面に接地し自重をかけた状態と、足を浮かせた状態とで足の形が変わる。自重をかけた状態では、足の幅が大きくなり、甲の高さが低くなる。一方、足を浮かせた状態では、足の幅が小さくなり、甲の高さが高くなる。
【0024】
乳幼児は、立っているときには、指先を曲げて地面を掴む。この動作を促すことが土踏まずの形成につながる。この指の動作をスムーズに行なうために、中足骨アーチ10をしっかりとホールドする必要がある。中足骨アーチ10は指の動きを制約しない個所であるので、しっかりと固定しても指の運動に支障を来たさない。
【0025】
足根部横アーチ11が形成される領域は甲の高さを決める部分であり、乳幼児の場合、自重がかかっていないときには高くなる部分である。そのため、この部分をきつくホールドしてはいけない。
【0026】
乳幼児の皮膚は柔らかいので、段差やこすれによって傷がつきやすい。また、歩き始めの乳幼児の場合、足首がまだぐらぐらの状態であるので、スムーズな歩行を促すためには、足首をしっかりとホールドしてやる必要がある。
【0027】
本発明は、上記のような乳幼児特有の足の構造を考慮して、柔らかい乳幼児の足を傷めないように工夫した乳幼児用靴を提供しようとするものである。
【0028】
図3〜図6は、この発明の一実施形態を示している。図3は斜視図、図4は正面図、図5は側面図、図6は足を入れる開口を大きく開いた状態の斜視図である。
【0029】
図示する乳幼児用靴20は、乳幼児の足の下に位置する靴底部21と、乳幼児の足の甲を覆う舌片部22と、乳幼児の足の一方側面を覆い舌片部22上に部分的に重なる第1側皮部23と、乳幼児の足の他方側面を覆い舌片部22上に部分的に重なる第2側皮部24とを備える。第1側皮部23と第2側皮部24とは、靴20の背面を経由して連続的に形成されている。
【0030】
舌片部22の前方端は、靴底部21の前方端21aに連結される。第1側皮部23および第2側皮部24は、舌片部22上で互いに対向する端縁部23aおよび24a有している。図示するように、第1および第2側皮部23,24の端縁部23a,24aは、舌片部22上に位置しながら靴底部21の前方端21aにまで延びている。
【0031】
第1および第2側皮部23,24の端縁部23a,24aは、それぞれ、靴底部21の前方端21aに近い前方部分が舌片部22に縫い付けられている。図3〜図6において、Eで示す部分が、各側皮部23,24と舌片部22との縫い付け部分である。
【0032】
乳幼児用靴20の内面には、各側皮部23,24と舌片部22との重なりによる段差およびそれらの縫い目部分が現れる。図1に示した従来の幼児用靴の場合には、段差および縫い目部分が乳幼児の中足骨の頭頂部に当たる位置にあったが、本発明の一実施形態の乳幼児用靴の場合には、上記の段差および縫い目部分Eは乳幼児の足の指先の上に位置する。本発明の実施形態によれば、乳幼児の足に体重が乗っても、足指と段差または縫い目部分Eとが擦れあうことは無いので、乳幼児の足を傷めない。
【0033】
さらに、図6に示すように、本発明の実施形態によれば、第1および第2側皮部23,24の端縁部23a,24aが靴底部21の前方端にまで延び、この前方端に近い領域で舌片部22に縫い付けられているので、舌片部22を靴底部21の前方端近くまで大きく捲りあげることができる。従って、足を入れる開口を大きく開くことができ、ふにゃふにゃで柔らかい乳幼児の足を容易に靴内に入れることができる。
【0034】
さらに舌片部22を靴底部21の前方端21aの近くまで大きく捲りあげることにより、靴20内の乳幼児の指節骨の位置を確認できるので、成長する乳幼児の足の大きさと靴のサイズとが適切かどうかを容易に判断できる。こうして、本発明の実施形態によれば、靴の買い替え時期がわかりやすくなる。
【0035】
図3〜図6から明らかなように、舌片部22上に位置する第1および第2側皮部23,24の端縁部23a,24aは、接続バンドを介して互いに接続される。この場合、接続バンドは、その一方端が第1側皮部23の内面に固定され、その他方端が第2側皮部24の外面に取り外し可能に接合される。
【0036】
より具体的に説明すると、乳幼児用靴20は、第1側皮部23の端縁部23aと第2側皮部24の端縁部24aとを接続する第1接続バンド25、第2接続バンド26および第3接続バンド27を備える。第1接続バンド25は足首から遠くに位置し、第3接続バンド27は足首に最も近く位置し、第2接続バンドは中間に位置する。図示するように、第1、第2および第3接続バンド25,26,27は、それぞれ、一方端が第1側皮部23の内面に固定され、その他方端が第2側皮部24の外面に取り外し可能に接合されている。
【0037】
好ましくは、各接続バンドの他方端を取り外し可能に接合する手段は、面ファスナ31である。面ファスナ31であれば、接続バンドの接着および脱離を容易にかつ短時間で行なうことができる。非常に簡単な操作であるので、乳幼児自身が接続バンドの接着および脱離操作を容易に習得できる。
【0038】
本発明の実施形態によれば、各接続バンド25,26,27の一方端が第1側皮部23の内面に位置し、他方端が第2側皮部24の外面に位置するので、左右の靴の判別が容易である。乳幼児が成長して一人で靴を履くようになる段階では、この左右の靴の判別は重要な要素となってくる。
【0039】
なお、図3〜図6は、左足用の靴を示しており、各接続バンド25,26,27は、足の内側面に位置する一方端が第1側皮部23の内面に固定され、足の外側面に位置する他方端が第2側皮部24の外面に取り外し可能に接合されている。図示していないが、右足用の靴の場合も、この関係は同じである。
【0040】
図示した実施形態では、3本の接続バンド25,26,27が同じ接続形態を有していたが、それらを異ならせるようにしてもよい。例えば、歩き始めの乳幼児の場合、足首がぐらぐらなので足首をしっかりとホールドしてやる必要がある。そのため、足首に最も近い接続バンド27に関しては、その一方端を第1側皮部23の外面に固定し、他方端を第2側皮部24の外面に取り外し可能に接合する。このような接続バンド27であれば、第1側皮部23の上端部をきつく引き寄せられるので、足首をしっかりとホールドすることができるようになる。そして、残りの2本の接続バンド25,26の一方端を第1側皮部23の内面に固定するようにすれば、左右の靴の判別を容易に行なえる。
【0041】
図5に明瞭に示しているように、乳幼児用靴20の背面部には、指で掴むための掴み帯30が取り付けられている。親が乳幼児に靴を履かせようとする場合、この掴み帯30を指で掴んで靴20の背部を引き上げることができる。従来からこの種の掴み帯を備えた乳幼児用靴が市場に提供されているが、一般的に、固定されていない掴み部分の長さ(掴み代)が小さく、掴みにくい。そこで、本発明の実施形態では、指で掴み易くするために、掴み帯30の掴み代(固定されていない掴み部分の長さ)を2cm以上とする。また、デザイン的な美感を損ねないようにするために、好ましくは、掴み帯30の上端の高さを、乳幼児用靴20の上端の高さとほぼ同じか、それよりも低くする。
【0042】
歩きを習得するまでの乳幼児の場合、足首がまだ弱いので、足首をしっかりとホールドすることのできる靴が望ましい。図3〜図6に示す乳幼児用靴20においては、乳幼児の足首をホールドするために、第1側皮部23および第2側皮部24は、乳幼児の足首を覆う高さを有している。
【0043】
なお、本明細書中で用いる「足首」とは、膝から足に至るまでの脚のうち最も細い部分を意味し、踝は足首のすぐ下に位置する。
【0044】
本発明の実施形態では、第1接続バンド25は、靴20を履いた乳幼児の中足骨アーチ10(図2参照)上に位置し、中足骨アーチ10をしっかりとホールドすることができるように設けられている。第2接続バンド26は、乳幼児の足根部横アーチ11(図2参照)上に位置し、足根部横アーチ11を緩やかに締めるように設けられている。
【0045】
第1接続バンド25をきつく締めて中足骨アーチ10をしっかりとホールドすることにより、乳幼児は指の掴み動作をスムーズに行なうようになるので、土踏まずの形成を促進する。
【0046】
前述したように、足根部横アーチ11が形成される領域は甲の高さを決める部分である。乳幼児の足はふにゃふにゃで脂肪が多いので、足に自重がかかっているときには横に広がり、宙に浮いて自重がかかっていないときには甲の高さが高くなる。歩行動作中には、上記のような足の形状の変化が繰り返して行なわれるので、足根部横アーチ11をきつく締めてはいけない。一方、この足根部横アーチ11を全くホールドしないようなものであれば、足が靴の中で動いてしまい、歩行に支障を来たす。そこで、緩やかでも足根部横アーチ11を接続バンド26によってホールドしておく必要がある。
【0047】
望ましくは、足根部横アーチ11上に位置する接続バンド26に関しては、足根部横アーチ11を緩やかにしか締めることができない構成とする。例えば、次のような構造にすることが考えられる。
【0048】
(1)面ファスナ31の形成位置を適切に選ぶことにより、接合状態では足根部横アーチ11を緩やかにしか締められないようにする。
【0049】
(2)面ファスナ31の位置を他の接続バンド25,27と同じにするのであれば、第2接続バンド26の長さをより長くすることにより、接合状態では足根部横アーチ11を緩やかにしか締められないようにする。
【0050】
(3)第2接続バンド26を幅広にし、足根部横アーチ11の直上に位置する部分に開口を設けることにより、足根部横アーチ11を圧迫しないようにする。
【0051】
(4)第2接続バンド26を比較的硬い材質のもので凸状に湾曲して形成することにより、強く締めても湾曲状態を保ち足根部横アーチ11を圧迫しないようにする。
【0052】
図3〜図6に示す乳幼児用靴20の場合、第3接続バンド27は、乳幼児の足首の部分で第1側皮部23の端縁部23aと第2側皮部24の端縁部24aとを接続する。歩行動作を習得するまでの乳幼児の場合、足首がぐらぐらなので足首をしっかりとホールドしてやる必要がある。そこで、第3接続バンド27は、乳幼児の足首をしっかりとホールドすることができるように設けられている。足首に対する第3接続バンド27の締付け力を高めるために、図示した実施形態と異なり、第3接続バンド27の一方端を第1側皮部23の外面に固定するようにしてもよい。
【0053】
第1側皮部23および第2側皮部24は、乳幼児の足首を覆う高さを有している。そのため、第3接続バンド27をきつく締めて足首をしっかりとホールドすると、第1および第2側皮部23,24が乳幼児の踝に当たる。乳幼児の歩行動作を見てみると、大人に比べて左右の触れが大きい。そのため、歩行開始時期に靴の側皮部が踝を圧迫するものであれば、踝を傷めるおそれがあるし、歩行動作にも悪影響を及ぼす。
【0054】
そこで、本発明の実施形態では、第1および第2側皮部23,24は、靴20を履いた乳幼児の踝を覆う柔らかなクッション材28,29を有する。これらのクッション材28,29は、その下端部29a(図5参照)が乳幼児の踝の下に位置し、その上端部が乳幼児の足首の高さに位置する幅寸法を有する。
【0055】
クッション材28,29が上述のような幅寸法を有するものであれば、柔らかなクッション材によって乳幼児の踝を完全に包むことができるので、踝を傷めることは無く、歩行動作にも支障を与えない。
【0056】
図示した実施形態では、クッション材28,29は、第1および第2側皮部23,24の上端領域全体に連続して形成されている。また、前述した第3接続バンド27は、第1側皮部23のクッション材28と第2側皮部29のクッション材29とを舌片部22上で接続している。
【0057】
また、踝を完全に包むことができるようにするために、好ましくは図5に示すように、クッション材の下端縁29aのうち、乳幼児の踝の下に位置する部分が下方に向かって凸状に湾曲するようにする。
【0058】
従来の乳幼児用靴の中には、踝の上に位置するクッション材を有するものもあった。しかし、クッション材の幅寸法が小さかったので、踝を完全に包んでいないと思われる。本発明の実施形態では、踝を完全に包むようにするために、好ましくは、乳幼児の踝に当たる領域にある第1および第2側皮部の高さをHとすると、この領域にあるクッション材29の幅寸法をH/3以上とする。
【0059】
図7〜図9は、この発明の他の実施形態を示している。図示する乳幼児用靴40は、靴底部41と、舌片部42と、第1側皮部43と、第2側皮部44と、縫い付け領域Eと、第1接続バンド45と、第2接続バンド46と、クッション材47,48と、掴み帯49とを備える。図3〜図6に示した実施形態と異なり、図示する乳幼児用靴40は、2本の接続バンド45,46のみを有する。その他の要素に関しては、実質的な相違は無い。
【0060】
第1接続バンド45は、乳幼児の中足骨アーチ10(図2参照)上に位置し、中足骨アーチ10をしっかりとホールドすることができるように設けられている。第2接続バンド46は、乳幼児の足根部横アーチ11上に位置し、足根部横アーチ11を緩やかに締めるように設けられている。
【0061】
よちよち歩きの段階から歩き方を習得するまでの間は、足首が弱いので、図3〜図6に示した乳幼児用靴20が好ましい。一方、歩き方を習得すようになった段階では、足首がしっかりしてきているので、足首のホールドは不要となる。この段階では、図7〜図9に示した乳幼児用靴40を使用することができる。
【0062】
以上、図面を参照してこの発明の実施形態を説明したが、この発明は、図示した実施形態のものに限定されない。図示された実施形態に対して、この発明と同一の範囲内において、あるいは均等の範囲内において、種々の修正や変形を加えることが可能である。

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to infant shoes, and more particularly to infant shoes that are gentle on infant feet.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Infants' shoes are used from the beginning of an infant's walking, and are used for protecting the feet.
[0003]
It is said that foot growth in infancy continues from around one year old when walking begins to about six or seven years of age. In particular, it is important to grow the foot in a healthy state in a relatively young infant.
[0004]
FIG. 1 shows a "toddler's shoes at the beginning of walking" disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 47-8680. The illustrated infant shoe 1 includes a shoe sole 2 located under the infant's foot, a tongue 3 covering the instep of the infant, and a part of the tongue 3 covering one side of the infant's foot. And a second side skin 5 covering the other side of the foot of the infant and partially overlapping the tongue piece 3.
[0005]
The first side skin portion 4 and the second side skin portion 5 have edges facing each other on the tongue piece portion 3, and a hole 6 for passing a shoelace is provided in this edge. Although not shown, the first side skin portion 4 and the second side skin portion 5 are connected on the tongue piece portion 3 by a shoelace passing through the hole 6, and the foot of the infant is held.
[0006]
[Patent Document 1]
JP-A-47-8680 (FIG. 1)
[0007]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
In the case of the infant shoes shown in FIG. 1, for example, the following problems can be pointed out.
[0008]
(1) The side skin portion 4 and the tongue piece portion 3 are sewn in an area indicated by A in the drawing, which is retracted from the toe portion of the shoe 1. When the infant's foot is put in the shoe, the tongue piece 3 is turned up, but the portion located in front of the area A cannot be turned up. Therefore, the size of the opening for inserting the foot cannot be so large. Because the infant's feet are soft and soft, the act of forcing the foot into the shoe through a not so large opening causes pain to the infant.
[0009]
(2) On the inner surface of the region A, a step of overlapping the side skin portion 4 and the tongue piece portion 3 appears, and furthermore, a seam for sewing them appears. The step and the seam are located at the top of the metatarsal of the infant's foot. Infants' feet are lumpy fat masses. Therefore, when weight is applied during walking, the width of the feet spreads sideways. In particular, the crown of the metatarsal is the part that spreads most laterally when the baby bears weight while walking. In the case of the infant shoes shown in FIG. 1, there is a possibility that the feet of the soft infants may be damaged because the steps spread and the seams hit the portions of the feet which are spread laterally.
[0010]
(3) The instep of a baby is widespread when he / she is carrying weight, and becomes high when he / she is floating in the air. In the walking operation, a state in which the body weighs on the foot after landing and a state in which the body floats in the air are repeated. For this reason, if the first side skin portion 4 and the second side skin portion 5 are strongly fastened with shoelaces and the toe portion 3 is strongly pressed from above by the tongue piece portion 3, the instep of the foot is pressed when walking. A situation is born.
[0011]
(4) In the case of the shoe shown in FIG. 1, the first side skin portion 4 and the second side skin portion 5 have a height extending to near the ankle of the infant wearing the shoe 1. In particular, infants who are toddlers at the beginning of walking need to keep their ankles tight by tightening shoelaces because their ankles are still loose. However, if the ankle is firmly held, the first side skin portion 4 and the second side skin portion 5 come into strong contact with the infant's ankle, causing the ankle to feel pain. Also, tightening the ankle strongly prevents smooth movement of the ankle.
[0012]
An object of the present invention is to provide a baby shoe designed so as not to damage the feet of a soft baby.
[0013]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The present invention provides a shoe sole located under the feet of an infant, a tongue piece covering the instep of the infant, and a first side skin that covers one side of the feet of the infant and partially overlaps the tongue piece. And a second side skin that covers the other side of the baby's foot and partially overlaps the tongue piece, and is characterized by the following.
[0014]
That is, the front end of the tongue piece is connected to the front end of the shoe sole. The first and second side skins have opposing edges on the tongue. The edges of the first and second side skins are located on the tongue pieces and extend to the front end of the sole. Each of the edge portions of the first and second side skins has a front portion near the front end of the shoe sole sewn to the tongue piece.
[0015]
Preferably, the seam obtained by sewing the edges of the first and second side skins and the tongue piece is located on the fingertip of the infant wearing the shoe.
[0016]
In one embodiment, a connection band is provided for connecting an edge of the first side skin and an edge of the second side skin. One end of the connection band is fixed to the inner surface of the first side skin, and the other end is detachably joined to the outer surface of the second side skin.
[0017]
A plurality of connection bands may be provided. Specifically, the infant shoe includes first, second, and third connection bands that connect the edge of the first side skin and the edge of the second side skin. The first connection band is located far from the ankle, the third connection band is located closest to the ankle, and the second connection band is located in the middle. One end of each of the first, second and third connection bands is fixed to the inner surface of the first side skin, and the other end is detachably joined to the outer surface of the second side skin. .
[0018]
In another embodiment, the infant shoe includes first and second connection bands that connect an edge of the first side skin and an edge of the second side skin. The first connection band is located far from the ankle, and has one end fixed to the inner surface of the first side skin and the other end detachably joined to the outer surface of the second side skin. The second connection band is located close to the ankle, and has one end fixed to the outer surface of the first side skin and the other end detachably joined to the outer surface of the second side skin.
[0019]
Preferably, the means for detachably joining the other end of the connection band and the outer surface of the second side skin is a hook-and-loop fastener.
[0020]
Preferably, a grip band for gripping with a finger is attached to the back of the baby shoe. The grip band has its lower end secured to the shoe and the unsecured grip portion is at least 2 cm long. In one embodiment, the height of the upper end of the grip band is about the same as or lower than the height of the upper end of the baby shoe.
[0021]
The operation and effect of each of the above configurations will be described in the section of the embodiment of the invention.
[0022]
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
FIG. 2 is an anatomical view of a foot bone. The foot bone is roughly divided into three regions, namely, a phalangeal (toe bone) region B, a metatarsal region C, and a tarsal bone region D. The anterior metatarsal arch 10 is a so-called instep arch, which is not a true arch but changes when a load is applied. In the case of an adult, the metatarsal arch 10 is crushed by its own weight during walking. In the case of an adult, there is no change in the arch of the lateral arch 11 of the tarsal portion due to its own weight.
[0023]
Infants' feet are fat and greasy, and the shape of the feet changes depending on whether they are on the ground and applied their own weight or when the feet are lifted. Under its own weight, the width of the foot increases and the height of the instep decreases. On the other hand, when the foot is lifted, the width of the foot becomes smaller and the height of the instep becomes higher.
[0024]
When standing, the infant bends his fingertips and grasps the ground. Encouraging this movement leads to the formation of the arch. In order to smoothly perform this finger movement, it is necessary to hold the metatarsal arch 10 firmly. Since the metatarsal arch 10 is a place where the movement of the finger is not restricted, even if it is firmly fixed, it does not hinder the movement of the finger.
[0025]
The region where the lateral arch 11 of the foot is formed is a portion that determines the height of the instep, and in the case of an infant, it is a portion that becomes higher when its own weight is not applied. Therefore, do not hold this part tight.
[0026]
Since the skin of infants is soft, they are easily damaged by steps or rubbing. In addition, in the case of an infant who has begun to walk, the ankle is still loose, so it is necessary to hold the ankle firmly to promote smooth walking.
[0027]
The present invention is intended to provide a baby shoe designed in consideration of the above-described foot structure peculiar to the baby so as not to damage the foot of the soft baby.
[0028]
3 to 6 show one embodiment of the present invention. 3 is a perspective view, FIG. 4 is a front view, FIG. 5 is a side view, and FIG. 6 is a perspective view showing a state where a foot opening is largely opened.
[0029]
The illustrated infant shoe 20 includes a shoe sole 21 located under the infant's foot, a tongue 22 covering the instep of the infant's foot, and partially covering the tongue 22 covering one side of the infant's foot. And a second side skin portion 24 that covers the other side of the foot of the infant and partially overlaps the tongue piece portion 22. The first side skin portion 23 and the second side skin portion 24 are formed continuously via the back surface of the shoe 20.
[0030]
The front end of the tongue piece 22 is connected to the front end 21 a of the sole 21. The first side skin portion 23 and the second side skin portion 24 have edge portions 23a and 24a facing each other on the tongue piece portion 22. As shown, the edge portions 23a, 24a of the first and second side skin portions 23, 24 extend to the front end 21a of the shoe sole 21 while being located on the tongue piece portion 22.
[0031]
End portions 23a and 24a of the first and second side skin portions 23 and 24 have their front portions near the front end 21a of the shoe sole 21 sewn to the tongue piece portion 22, respectively. In FIGS. 3 to 6, a portion indicated by E is a sewn portion between the side skin portions 23 and 24 and the tongue piece portion 22.
[0032]
On the inner surface of the baby shoe 20, steps due to the overlap of the side skin portions 23, 24 and the tongue piece portion 22 and their stitch portions appear. In the case of the conventional infant shoes shown in FIG. 1, the step and the stitch portion were located at positions corresponding to the top of the metatarsal of the infant, but in the case of the infant shoes of one embodiment of the present invention, The step and the seam portion E are located on the toes of the infant's foot. According to the embodiment of the present invention, even if the infant's foot is put on the weight, the toe and the step or the seam portion E do not rub against each other, so that the infant's foot is not damaged.
[0033]
Further, as shown in FIG. 6, according to the embodiment of the present invention, the edge portions 23a, 24a of the first and second side skin portions 23, 24 extend to the front end of the shoe sole 21, and this front end Since the tongue piece 22 is sewn to the tongue piece 22 in a region close to the tongue, the tongue piece 22 can be largely turned up to near the front end of the sole 21. Therefore, the opening for inserting the foot can be greatly opened, and the foot of the infant soft and soft can be easily put in the shoe.
[0034]
Further, by rolling up the tongue piece 22 to the vicinity of the front end 21a of the shoe sole 21, the position of the phalanges of the infant in the shoe 20 can be confirmed. Can be easily determined as appropriate. Thus, according to the embodiment of the present invention, it is easy to understand when to replace shoes.
[0035]
As is clear from FIGS. 3 to 6, the edge portions 23a and 24a of the first and second side skin portions 23 and 24 located on the tongue piece portion 22 are connected to each other via a connection band. In this case, one end of the connection band is fixed to the inner surface of the first side skin portion 23, and the other end is detachably joined to the outer surface of the second side skin portion 24.
[0036]
More specifically, the infant shoe 20 includes a first connection band 25 and a second connection band that connect the edge 23a of the first side skin 23 and the edge 24a of the second side skin 24. 26 and a third connection band 27. The first connection band 25 is located far from the ankle, the third connection band 27 is located closest to the ankle, and the second connection band is located in the middle. As shown, the first, second, and third connection bands 25, 26, and 27 have one end fixed to the inner surface of the first side skin 23 and the other end of the second side skin 24, respectively. Removably joined to the outer surface.
[0037]
Preferably, the means for detachably joining the other end of each connection band is a hook-and-loop fastener 31. With the surface fastener 31, the connection band can be easily attached and detached in a short time. Since the operation is very simple, the infant can easily learn the operation of attaching and detaching the connection band.
[0038]
According to the embodiment of the present invention, one end of each of the connection bands 25, 26, 27 is located on the inner surface of the first side skin portion 23, and the other end is located on the outer surface of the second side skin portion 24. It is easy to determine the shoes. At the stage when an infant grows and wears shoes alone, the distinction between the left and right shoes becomes an important factor.
[0039]
3 to 6 show shoes for the left foot, and one end of each of the connection bands 25, 26, and 27 located on the inner surface of the foot is fixed to the inner surface of the first side skin 23. The other end located on the outer surface of the foot is detachably joined to the outer surface of the second side skin 24. Although not shown, this relationship is the same for shoes for the right foot.
[0040]
In the illustrated embodiment, the three connection bands 25, 26, 27 have the same connection form, but they may be different. For example, in the case of a baby who is beginning to walk, the ankle is shaky, so it is necessary to hold the ankle firmly. Therefore, as for the connection band 27 closest to the ankle, one end thereof is fixed to the outer surface of the first side skin portion 23, and the other end is detachably joined to the outer surface of the second side skin portion 24. With such a connection band 27, the upper end portion of the first side skin portion 23 can be pulled tight, so that the ankle can be firmly held. Then, if one end of the remaining two connection bands 25 and 26 is fixed to the inner surface of the first side skin portion 23, the left and right shoes can be easily distinguished.
[0041]
As clearly shown in FIG. 5, a grasping band 30 for grasping with a finger is attached to the rear surface of the infant shoe 20. When the parent wants the infant to wear shoes, the back of the shoe 20 can be pulled up by grasping the grip band 30 with a finger. Conventionally, baby shoes provided with this type of grip band have been provided on the market, but generally, the length of the grip portion that is not fixed (grip allowance) is small and it is difficult to grip. Therefore, in the embodiment of the present invention, in order to make it easy to grasp with the finger, the margin of the grasping band 30 (length of the unfixed grasping portion) is set to 2 cm or more. Further, in order not to impair the design aesthetics, preferably, the height of the upper end of the grasping band 30 is substantially the same as or lower than the height of the upper end of the infant shoe 20.
[0042]
In the case of infants who have not yet learned to walk, ankles are still weak, so shoes that can hold the ankle firmly are desirable. In the infant shoe 20 shown in FIGS. 3 to 6, the first side skin portion 23 and the second side skin portion 24 have a height covering the ankle of the infant to hold the ankle of the infant. .
[0043]
As used herein, “ankle” refers to the thinnest part of the leg from the knee to the foot, and the ankle is located immediately below the ankle.
[0044]
In the embodiment of the present invention, the first connecting band 25 is located on the metatarsal arch 10 of the infant wearing the shoes 20 (see FIG. 2) so that the metatarsal arch 10 can be securely held. It is provided in. The second connection band 26 is located on the lateral arch 11 of the infant's foot (see FIG. 2), and is provided so as to gently tighten the lateral arch 11 of the foot.
[0045]
By firmly holding the metatarsal arch 10 by tightening the first connection band 25, the infant can smoothly perform the gripping operation of the finger, thereby promoting the formation of the arch.
[0046]
As described above, the area where the lateral arch 11 of the foot is formed is a part that determines the height of the instep. Infants' feet are fat and fat, so they spread sideways when their feet are under their own weight, and rise in height when they are floating in the air and are not under their own weight. During the walking operation, the change in the shape of the foot as described above is repeatedly performed, so that the lateral arch 11 of the foot should not be tightened. On the other hand, if the foot arch horizontal arch 11 is not held at all, the foot moves in the shoe, which hinders walking. Therefore, it is necessary to hold the lateral arch 11 of the foot even by the connection band 26 even if it is gentle.
[0047]
Desirably, the connection band 26 located on the foot lateral arch 11 has a configuration in which the foot lateral arch 11 can only be loosely tightened. For example, the following structure can be considered.
[0048]
(1) By appropriately selecting the formation position of the hook-and-loop fastener 31, it is possible to only loosely tighten the foot arch 11 in the joined state.
[0049]
(2) If the position of the hook-and-loop fastener 31 is the same as that of the other connection bands 25 and 27, the length of the second connection band 26 is made longer, so that the foot-part lateral arch 11 is loosened in the joined state. Only to be tightened.
[0050]
(3) The width of the second connection band 26 is increased, and an opening is provided in a portion located directly above the lateral arch 11 of the foot, so that the lateral arch 11 of the foot is not pressed.
[0051]
(4) The second connection band 26 is made of a relatively hard material and is formed to be convexly curved, so that the curved state is maintained even when the band is strongly tightened so that the lateral arch 11 of the foot is not pressed.
[0052]
In the case of the baby shoe 20 shown in FIGS. 3 to 6, the third connection band 27 is formed by the edge 23 a of the first side skin 23 and the edge 24 a of the second side skin 24 at the ankle of the baby. And connect. In the case of an infant until learning the walking motion, the ankle is shaky, so it is necessary to hold the ankle firmly. Therefore, the third connection band 27 is provided so as to hold the ankle of the baby firmly. In order to increase the tightening force of the third connection band 27 to the ankle, one end of the third connection band 27 may be fixed to the outer surface of the first side skin portion 23, unlike the illustrated embodiment.
[0053]
The first side skin 23 and the second side skin 24 have a height that covers the ankle of the baby. Therefore, when the third connection band 27 is tightly held and the ankle is firmly held, the first and second side skin portions 23 and 24 hit the ankle of the baby. Looking at the walking behavior of infants, the left and right touches are greater than in adults. Therefore, if the side skin of the shoe presses the ankle at the time of starting walking, the ankle may be damaged, and the walking operation is adversely affected.
[0054]
Therefore, in the embodiment of the present invention, the first and second side skin portions 23 and 24 have soft cushion members 28 and 29 covering the ankles of the infant wearing the shoes 20. These cushions 28, 29 have a width dimension such that the lower end 29a (see FIG. 5) is located below the infant's ankle and the upper end is located at the height of the ankle of the infant.
[0055]
If the cushions 28 and 29 have the above-mentioned widths, the soft cushions can completely wrap the infant's ankle, without damaging the ankle and hindering walking. Absent.
[0056]
In the illustrated embodiment, the cushion members 28 and 29 are formed continuously over the entire upper end regions of the first and second side skin portions 23 and 24. Further, the above-described third connection band 27 connects the cushion material 28 of the first side skin portion 23 and the cushion material 29 of the second side skin portion 29 on the tongue piece portion 22.
[0057]
In order to completely wrap the ankle, preferably, as shown in FIG. 5, a portion of the lower end edge 29a of the cushion material, which is located under the infant's ankle, has a downwardly convex shape. To be curved.
[0058]
Some conventional infant shoes have a cushion material located above the ankle. However, the width of the cushioning material was so small that the ankle was not completely wrapped. In the embodiment of the present invention, in order to completely wrap the ankle, preferably, the height of the first and second side skins in the area corresponding to the infant's ankle is H, and the cushion material 29 in this area is preferably set. Is H / 3 or more.
[0059]
7 to 9 show another embodiment of the present invention. The illustrated infant shoe 40 has a sole portion 41, a tongue piece portion 42, a first side skin portion 43, a second side skin portion 44, a sewing area E, a first connection band 45, and a second A connection band 46, cushion members 47 and 48, and a grip band 49 are provided. Unlike the embodiment shown in FIGS. 3 to 6, the illustrated infant shoe 40 has only two connecting bands 45,46. There is no substantial difference in other elements.
[0060]
The first connection band 45 is located on the metatarsal arch 10 of the infant (see FIG. 2), and is provided so that the metatarsal arch 10 can be securely held. The second connection band 46 is located on the lateral arch 11 of the infant's foot, and is provided so as to gently tighten the lateral arch 11 of the foot.
[0061]
Since the ankle is weak during the period from toddling to learning how to walk, the infant shoes 20 shown in FIGS. 3 to 6 are preferable. On the other hand, at the stage of learning how to walk, the ankle has become firm, so that holding the ankle becomes unnecessary. At this stage, the infant shoes 40 shown in FIGS. 7 to 9 can be used.
[0062]
Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described with reference to the drawings, the present invention is not limited to the illustrated embodiments. Various modifications and variations can be made to the illustrated embodiment within the same scope as the present invention or within an equivalent scope.
