Description

  The present invention is a sandal-type function that can adjust the wearability according to the state of each foot of an elderly person or a person with a foot injury (hereinafter referred to as “elderly person etc.”) by using a plurality of belts. Regarding shoes, for example, it relates to a sandal-type functional shoe that is easy to put on and take off even when wearing a lower limb orthosis, etc., is easy to wear and can be walked easily without taking off easily during walking, and has good design. .

  If footwear is easy to put on, it will be easy to take off during walking, and if it is difficult to take off during walking, it will take time to attach and detach it to the foot, and it will not be easy to attach or detach. Even for a healthy person, attaching and detaching footwear is bothersome and often time consuming when attaching and detaching footwear. In particular, for people with physical disabilities, conventional footwear takes more time than a healthy person to attach and detach with conventional footwear, and is difficult to handle. For example, when performing the opening and closing with the force of the hand, because the body is inconvenient, for those who are difficult to bend forward and those who have little freedom of limbs, the most difficult body movement is forced, For this reason, an easy operation cannot be obtained.

  Therefore, in order to solve the above-mentioned conventional problems, the applicant can safely attach and detach people with rheumatism etc. who have deformed toes and can not wear commercially available shoes. No matter whether you are wearing a sole plate or a different instep height, the opening is large, the band is firmly attached to the instep and fits in, and it is light and easy to take off when walking The shoes etc. which can be walked were provided (patent documents 1, 2).

On the other hand, sandals are unlikely to be worn in a formal place and tend to be worn in play and daily life, but generally have good detachability. However, there is a tendency that good detachability and good gait are not compatible, especially for those who have difficulty walking, such as elderly people, with sandals that have both good detachability and gait. Needs were high.
In addition, there are many people who wear a prosthetic device, rheumatism, etc. and who have deformations in their toes, even with commercially available sandals.
Moreover, it is needless to say that a sandal whose appearance is reminiscent of a sick person is not preferable even though it has high functionality. The abundance that demands fashionableness in health and nursing care products is spreading, such as elderly people who want to look good just by their appearance, such as sandals that take into account the safety that makes use of easy-to-work and easy-to-work features, etc. Enrichment of design is required.

  The hook function is exhibited by engaging a hook function member provided on the back surface of each belt. The hook functional member is configured to have a width, and the hook functional member can freely correspond to the width of the upper portion by adjusting the meshing position of the hook functional member. In addition, since the upper belt and the opening belt are fully opened, even when the size of the foot changes due to the wearing of lower limb orthoses, etc., or when the size of the foot changes due to swelling, etc., it is easy to attach and detach. In addition, a good wearing feeling can be obtained.

A hook functional member is comprised by the commercially available hook-and-loop fastener, for example. The hook functional member constituted by the hook-and-loop fastener is constituted by a large number of loop group members (surface fastener A surface) and hook group members (surface fastener B surface). The loop group member is a soft and many loop group implanted on the surface of the substrate, and the hook group member is a hard and many hook group protruding on the surface of the substrate fabric. Of the three independent belts, the upper belt is preferably worn with a soft loop group member fabric on the side to be worn, and the hook functional member fabric is sewn on the lower side when overlapped. . The belts that are fully opened are configured so that they are firmly stacked and the upper and the opening are fixed.

The toe opening is configured to be small and high. Since the upper belt close to the toes is configured to be wide, the holding feeling is good and the walking performance is also good. The reason for making the toe opening small is to protect the toe from impact.

A counter member is provided on the buttocks of the shoe body. The counter member is a hard core member, and thereby, the support of the buttocks is hardened, and there is an effect that the stability is improved. Further, by providing a counter member on the heel, it is possible to prevent the footwear from being twisted, and it is possible to suppress the deviation even when a dedicated insole or a sole plate is attached.
In the sandal type functional shoe of the present invention, the rising portion is provided on the entire side edge of the shoe body. The rising portion of the side portion (side portion in the width direction) contributes to enhancing the hold feeling, and the rising portion of the toe portion contributes to protect the toe from impact. In other words, stability or safety is enhanced by not fully opening at the time of wearing.

The outer bottom surface (shoe bottom) of the shoe body has a structure with improved grip and an outward spread toward the ground contact surface. Here, the outer bottom surface is a bottom portion of the shoe sole, that is, a place touching the ground. Since the outer bottom surface has a substantially trapezoidal cross section, even people who are worried about wobbling during walking can wear it with peace of mind.

At the time of wearing, elderly people or the like easily insert the finger of the hand and easily raise the buttocks. In addition, the knob loop where the finger enters is convenient for other people to put on and take off the shoes.
Moreover, the sandal type functional shoes of the best form are configured such that a plurality of insole members (insoles) can be attached and detached, and the thickness of the insole can be adjusted. Even a person who has a leg length difference between the right foot and the left foot, or a person wearing a lower limb orthosis, can achieve an optimal fit by combining a plurality of insoles.
Moreover, the sandal type functional shoes of the present invention need to be lightweight so as not to hinder the walking of non-healthy persons, and at least the weight is configured to be within 300 grams (one leg).

<< Usage aspect >>
The upper belt and the opening belt are configured to open widely, and when these are fully opened, a large mouth is formed. After inserting a foot into this large lip, the upper part of the belt close to the toes is overlapped with a hook function to fix the front part. Next, the other upper belt is superposed with a hook function so as to fit the upper width, and the middle upper portion is fixed. Finally, the opening belt is bent through a square can, and the hook functional member is engaged and fixed in a double-folded manner so as to support the back part from above. Both belts are fitted with the instep line and the belts are combined and stopped with a hook function. The belt fits in well with the instep, so you can walk comfortably without taking off your heels during walking or being loose and uncomfortable. By using three belts, the upper part is firmly fixed and fits the foot.

In this embodiment, the following three types of insole sets made of EVA (a thermoplastic resin obtained by copolymerizing ethylene and vinyl acetate) are used in combination (see FIG. 4).
A: Insole with a shock absorbing insole thickness of 3.5 mm, main body, and a heel portion with a thickness of 10 mm B: Insole with a shock absorbing insole thickness of 7 mm, and the entire insole C: 2 mm thick Adjustable insoles

These three types of insoles can be used in combination according to the state of the foot. For example, the A type having excellent cushioning properties is set at the time of delivery, but when a person using a lower limb orthosis wears, the A type is taken and the B type is set. When the lower limb orthosis side is low, the C type is overlapped with the B type. On the other hand, when the height on the healthy foot side is low, the A type is used by overlapping the C type (see FIG. 5).
Incidentally, it is possible to deal with a case where there is a difference in leg length of about 5 to 10 mm.

  The sandal type functional shoes of the present embodiment configured as described above can enjoy the feeling of opening sandals with a relaxed front foot while providing the walking ability of short shoes with a stable heel. Functionally, it can be worn even with a lower limb orthosis, etc., and it is stable due to the high supportability of the upper and buttocks, and there is an inclined part on the outer bottom surface. High safety.
