Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to the improvement of the material for the insole of shoes.
This relates to an insole material with a magnetic shank for footwear, characterized in that a magnetizable shank 3 is attached to the lower surface of an insole material main body 2 that does not come into contact with the inside of the shoe or the sole of the foot.

Since ancient times, in Oriental medicine, it has been believed that there are reflex areas 9 on the soles of the feet that reflect various organs of the body, and by stimulating these reflex areas 9, the reflex areas 9 can be stimulated.
It has been thought that it can strengthen the various organs connected to the body and eliminate physical ailments. FIG. 1 shows an outline of the reflex areas 9 on the soles of the feet that are associated with various organs of the body.
Further, FIG. 2 shows a diagram of the relationship between the path of the human body and the acupuncture point 18. In the figure, the vertical double line is the meridian 10, the horizontal double line is the meridian 11, the thick solid line is the branch 17, and the connection point (the part surrounded by the broken line) is the pot 18. Now, as a method to stimulate this reflex area 9, there are manual methods such as kneading and acupressure, green bamboo stepping, healthy slippers with many protrusions on the surface, healthy socks with protrusions on the back, and the sole of the foot. Methods have been proposed that use various devices such as shoe insoles to perform pine surges. However, when it is done manually, it does not last long because the fingers get tired or the shoulders get stiff after doing it more than 10 times, and when using health equipment, you have to take extra time to use it. Not,
In today's busy world, it is difficult to use health equipment continuously, or people get tired of it easily, or the health equipment itself has a bad appearance, making it difficult to use, or it is highly irritating, making it uncomfortable to use for short periods of time. However, it does not last long because it becomes uncomfortable when used for a long time,
It was common for items that were purchased to be left in a corner of the room. In addition to the above-mentioned manual labor and use of health equipment, methods for stimulating the reflex areas 9 include the use of magnetism. Well, the human body is related to the earth's magnetism.
It is an extremely weak magnetic material of about 0.1 to 0.3 Gauss, and this magnetic balance protects cells, and blood, lymph fluid, and ``Qi'', which is the life energy in Oriental medicine, flow smoothly through the magnetic balance. It is believed that if this internal magnetic balance is disrupted, it will harm your health. And "magnetic therapy" which applies magnetism to the body in order to adjust the internal magnetic balance.
is currently being carried out.

The present invention was developed in view of the related conventional examples and experiences, and its purpose is to eliminate the feeling of wearing footwear by magnetizing the shank, so that it can be used without knowing it while wearing footwear. To provide an insole material with a magnetic shank for footwear that stimulates the reflex areas of the soles of the feet to recover from fatigue and strengthen internal organs.

The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to illustrated embodiments.

Footwear includes chemical shoes such as men's and women's shoes, slippers, sandals, rain boots, mountain climbing shoes, special shoes for sports such as baseball, rugby, and golf, special shoes for work such as those for freezers, and shoes for hospitals and medical institutions. There are special footwear. This generally includes an insole material main body 2, leather 8 (or upper leather), a sole 7, etc. Here, we will mainly explain men's shoes or women's shoes.

First, the insole material main body 2 will be explained. Materials for the midsole body 2 include pressboard, various laser boards (synthetic leather), genuine cowhide leather, resin-based raw material boards, rubber midsole (hub), and materials similar to toppings.

Now, for the insole material body 2, how to assemble the material,
Moreover, the material main body 2 for the inner sole with a shank and the material main body 2 for the inner sole without a shank are classified depending on the material and the method of use thereof. (Hereinafter, the metal shank 3 will be simply referred to as a shank, and when a magnetic rubber sheet is used as a shank, it will be referred to as a magnetic rubber shank 3a.) (A) There are the following three types of insole material body 2 with a shank. (In this case, gauze, that is, cheesecloth is attached to the back side of the insole material body 2.) The insole material body 2 is cut from a single piece of pressboard.

Insole material main body 2 assembled and cut by combining press boards.

Insole material body 2 is made by combining press boards and cutting the assembled material with fabric, vinyl, and sponge.

(B) The main body 2 of the insole material without shank has the following five parts.

Insole material main body 2 cut from a single piece of pressboard.

Various leather boards (inner sole material body 2 cut from synthetic leather 5).

Insole material main body 2 cut from genuine cowhide leather (However, in this case, there is also a version with a shank.) Insole material main body 2 cut from resin-based raw material board.

There are a rubber insole (hub), a material body 2 for the insole cut from something similar to toppings, and the like.

In the case of (B), it can be used as is, but instead of the shank 3, it is magnetized with a width larger than the shank 3 and slightly longer, about 1.2 to 1.5 times, to improve elasticity and flexibility. In some cases, the magnet rubber shank 3a held is pasted together. This magnet rubber shank 3a
is as shown in Figure 21, and its thickness is 0.8 to 2.5
mm, one end (2R) is narrower or equal to the other end (2R). Apply latex adhesive to the back side and stick.

Next, the properties that the insole material main body 2 should have will be explained.

Good ventilation.

Good flexibility.

Good moisture absorption.

Good elasticity.

These properties are strictly required for high-quality shoes.

Next, shank 3 will be explained first. The material of the shank 3 is a metal material that can be magnetized, and hereinafter, a material that can be hardened and magnetized, such as high carbon steel or tungsten steel, will be explained as an example.

As shown in FIGS. 3a to 7, the shank 3 is made by punching a hardenable steel plate into a rectangular shape by press working, and there are various shapes depending on the purpose. That is, FIGS. 3a and 3b show a flat shank 3, one end of which is formed in an arc shape and the other end of which is formed into a bifurcated shape, and a long hole 6 is bored in the end of the arc shape. A round hole 7 is bored at the end of the bifurcated end. If you look at it from the side, you can see that it is curved in a bow shape to fit the sole of the foot. The tip of the forked portion 5 may be cut off as shown in the figure, but it may also be sharpened as shown by the broken line. FIGS. 4a and 4b show examples of a single shank 3, in which a protrusion 8 is provided protruding along the central longitudinal direction. In this example, one end is cut off and not forked, but the third
Of course, it is also good to have two prongs as shown in Figure a.
Figures 5a and 5b are for high heels, and although the width is narrow, the protrusions 8 are high to increase elasticity. FIG. 6 shows an example of a double shank 3, in which two protrusions 8 are protruded in parallel. FIG. 7 shows another example of the flat shank 3, which is one of the types that is embedded inside the inner sole material body 2. In addition, there are two types of shank 3 in terms of elasticity: hardened shank 3, which requires high elasticity, and raw shank 3, which does not require high elasticity and is not hardened. Yes. In addition, as described above, the steel shank 3 may not be used, and a magnetic rubber sheet may be used as the shank 3. Shayank 3 is used for men's shoes, women's shoes, sandals, rain boots, special sports shoes (climbing shoes,
The material, shape, and presence or absence of hardening of the shank 3 are determined depending on the purpose. In addition, when magnetizing shank 3, a large number of shank 3 (for example, 100 ~
(approximately 400 sheets) are laminated and magnetized, with a magnetization of 610 to 680 gauss for men's shoes and 620 to 710 gauss for women's shoes.
Magnetize using Gauss as a guide.

In addition, when magnetizing a magnetic sheet without magnetizing the shank 3, a permanent magnet powder kneaded into rubber and formed into a sheet is used, and as mentioned above, for men's shoes, it has a magnetization strength of 610 to 680 Gauss, 620-710 for women's shoes
It will be magnetized using Gauss as a guide.

The substrate 1 for the insole of shoes includes a single piece of various materials, a basic type of press board, a composite type, and the like. The basic type midsole substrate 1a is a midsole 12 with a thickness of 1.3 to 2 mm.
A piece of fabric 13 with a thickness of about 1.3 to 4 mm is placed on the strained part 16.
This is made by gluing the strained portion 16 of (heel material). The composite type insole substrate 1b is made by laminating a composite material 15 at a predetermined position on the basic type insole substrate 1a. 13 is pasted on the middle fabric 12 of a single piece, and then the single fabric 1
There are various types such as one in which composite material 15 is laminated on top of 3, and each can be used depending on the purpose. The insole sheet 14 attached to the surface of the insole substrate 1 may be made of, for example, gauze, a vinyl sheet, a woven fabric such as cheesecloth, or a nonwoven fabric such as felt. The inner sole material body 2 is formed by punching out the inner sole substrate 1, and the shank 3 is formed by punching out the inner sole material body 2, as shown in FIGS. 12a, b and 13 a, b. It is used by being buried inside the foot, or by being caulked and fixed to the bottom surface of the foot so that it does not come into direct contact with the sole of the foot. Further, when the shank 3 is not magnetized, a magnet 4, which will be described later, is used. That is, the shank 3 is magnetized by sandwiching or pasting a magnet sheet, which will be described later, between the insole material main body 2 and the shank 3, or by embedding the magnetic sheet together with the shank 3. At this time, the length of the magnet sheet is adjusted in advance so that the magnetic force applied to the reflective area 9 on the sole of the foot via the insole material body 2 is approximately 550 Gauss.

Here, FIGS. 12a to 15 will be explained. Figures 12a and 12b show the first embodiment of the present invention, in which a magnetic sheet is pasted on the shank 3 and attached to the inner sole material body 2, and the magnetic domain is divided into two, NS and magnetic field lines. is formed on both the front and back surfaces of the inner sole material main body 2. Figures 13a and 13b show a second embodiment, in which the shank 3 and the magnet sheet are embedded in the inner sole material body 2, and the state of the magnetic lines of force is the same as in the first embodiment. 14 and 15, similar to the second embodiment, the shank 3 and the magnet sheet are embedded in the inner sole material main body 2, but the magnetic domains of the magnet sheet are an odd number (3 in this embodiment, but 5 or more). It's okay.
According to test results, it is good to have 3 to 5 poles. ), and lines of magnetic force are generated concentrated on the surface side of the inner sole material main body 2. This point also applies to shank 3.
In addition, when the magnetic poles are three poles, they are magnetized at a ratio of N:S:N (or S:N:S)=1:2:1.

Incidentally, a magnetic sheet is embedded in place of the shank 3 in the topping sole and the one-piece inner sole material body 2 without a shank. Alternatively, a magnetic sheet may be attached to or embedded in the entire outsole 7 or a part of the sole such as the toe area to stimulate the entire sole or a part of the sole such as the toe area.

The magnet 4 is generally formed into a sheet by kneading permanent magnet powder into rubber, but is of course not limited to this, and may be in the form of granules if conditions permit. In this embodiment, shoes using sheet-shaped magnets 4 will be mainly described below. In this case, the strength of the magnet 4 is such that the magnetized shank 3 is not suitable for men's shoes.
It is designed to be around 610 to 680 Gauss, and 620 to 710 Gauss for women's shoes.

Next, a method for manufacturing shoes according to the present invention will be explained. First, the insole material main body 2 is nailed to the bottom of a shoe mold (including a plastic mold) to which the leather (upper skin) is not attached. Next, the leather (upper skin) is manually covered and hung, and then the leather (upper skin) is hung using a finishing machine, the finishing tightening is performed, and the finished condition is inspected.
Adhesive glue (for example, latex adhesive) is applied to the underside of the insole material, and then placed in a dryer to dry. Next, the outsole is attached to the bottom of the insole material main body 2 (bottom attachment work), the outsole is firmly adhered using a bottom crimping machine, the outsole is cut out, and the bottom is nailed to form a finished product.

When wearing shoes made in this way, the reflex areas 9 on the soles of the feet are stimulated differently from conventional physical stimulation.
You will be stimulated without realizing it, strengthening your internal organs and relieving stress.

As described above, the present invention has a magnetizable shank attached to the inside of the insole material that makes up the bottom of the footwear or to the lower surface of the insole material that does not come into contact with the sole of the foot. Since there are no stimulation protrusions found in health equipment, the appearance of the footwear itself is completely the same as normal footwear, does not cause any discomfort to the patient, is comfortable to use, and is magnetically Since it is a stimulus and not a physical stimulus like conventional ones, there is no foreign body sensation at all, and it has the advantage of not causing any discomfort even when used continuously for a long period of time.Furthermore, since it magnetizes the shank, it is easy to wear footwear. It also has the advantage of being stimulating just by doing so, and requiring no effort for sustained use.

In other words, by using a magnetized shank, magnetism is applied to the sole reflex area of the human body structure, which is referred to in Oriental medicine, and as a result of hemoglobin (magnetic material such as iron compounds) in the blood crossing the magnetic field, Fleming The electromotive force generated by the law stimulates reflex points, channels, etc., and has effects such as recovering from fatigue, strengthening internal organs, promoting health and beauty, as well as adjusting the magnetic balance of the human body, and is comfortable to wear without feeling worn. This provides various advantages such as not impairing comfort.
