Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method for facilitating fastening and loosening of an instep when putting on and taking off shoes.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art When wearing shoes, there is a method of loosening the front instep using shoelaces, front rubber, hook-and-loop fasteners, zippers, etc. in order to easily attach and detach the shoes. Among them, those using shoelaces are the mainstream. A shoe to be attached to a foot using a “shoel cord” is, for example, a pair of cover portions that cover the inside and outside of the instep and face each other through a gap, and each have a plurality of shoelace insertion holes at predetermined intervals, and the shoe. And a shoelace that is drawn through the string insertion hole and hung between the cover portions. Then, when wearing the shoes, the shoes are attached with the knots of the shoe laces unraveled, the shoe laces loosened, and the intervals of the cover portions widened.

On the other hand, when the shoes are taken off, the ends of the shoelaces are untied and the shoelaces are loosened to widen the space between the covers, and then the shoes are taken off the feet. That is, when the shoes are attached and detached, the shoelaces are first unraveled and loosened to widen the cover interval so that the feet can be easily inserted into or removed from the shoes.
Mainly for children's shoes with a "front rubber", the shoes are attached and detached by using the expansion and contraction of the front rubber, which expands and contracts when the foot is taken in and out. The one using the "face fastener" is one in which male and female face fasteners are sewn on the back surface of the instep band and the upper surface of the instep, and the hook fasteners are engaged and fastened according to the size of the instep of the wearer. .

Furthermore, a shoelace fastening piece with a "zipper" is provided, the shoelace is inserted through the shoelace fastening piece, and the shoelace is fastened loosely in advance, and when the shoe is worn, the zipper knob is used. The front instep is fastened by pulling up and locking, and unlocking is a method of loosening by pulling down the zipper knob.

[0005]

The method of fastening with "shoes" described in the prior art is excellent in that it can be securely fastened during intense exercise or running, but when putting on and taking off the shoes, It is difficult to tighten and loosen the string. Since it is necessary to untie the knots of the shoelaces and to tie the shoelaces, wearing the shoes is complicated and troublesome. Especially children and the elderly,
It is very difficult and troublesome for people with disabilities and often cannot tie shoelaces.

[0006] Contrary to the method of the shoelaces, the fastening method using "face fastener", "front rubber", and "zipper" is extremely easy and easy, but cannot be strongly fastened. In addition, there is a drawback that the shoes easily come off due to looseness during running or running.

[0007]

[Means for Solving the Problems] A tongue piece is sewn on the upper surface of the front instep of an instep cover, and an instep band in which the fastening of the front instep is passed through a locking tool A is passed through a ring and an adjusting ring in a zigzag shape. And arrange as shown in Fig. 1,
On the other hand, a method of attaching a locking tool B to the upper part on the outer shell side and fastening an instep cover to engage and unlock the locking tools A and B with one touch.

[0008]

[Function] The locks A and B are a set of one-touch buckles (trade name). By using this, regardless of age or sex,
The front band of the shoe can be securely fastened with the instep band, the fastening and unlocking can be done easily, and the shoe can be easily put on and taken off.

[0009]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. First, the instep band (5), width 20mm,
A commercially available nylon strong woven cloth with a thickness of 1 mm was used to cut into a predetermined length according to the size of the shoe, and one end was sewn to the instep side (10) of the instep cover (2) as shown in FIG. , Locking device A
Insert (4). On the other hand, the fastener B (8) is sewn through a strong nylon woven cloth, and the other end is cut to a length according to the shoe size and then sewn to the outer side (7) of the instep cover (2). To do. (Fig. 1
(See also) Nylon strong fabric sewn ring (6)
Sew on the inner shell side (10) and the adjusting ring (9) on the outer shell side (7). (See Figure 1)

The tongue piece (1) of a normal shoe is sewn on the lower side of the opening of the front instep (3) of the instep cover (2). The upper surface of the opening is sewn (13). (Refer to FIG. 1) The shoe sole (12) is attached to the instep cover (2) thus sewn with the respective parts by a conventional method to complete the shoe. When wearing the shoe, first attach the shoe to the foot, and then use the locking tool A.
The tip of the instep band (5) through which (4) is inserted is passed through the ring (6) and further through the adjustment ring (9) to engage the locking tool A (4) and the locking tool B (8), The instep band (5) is arranged in a zigzag shape, adjusted to the instep and tightened, and after fastening, fixed by the adjusting ring (9).

As described above, once the shoes are once fixed, the locking tool B of the one-touch buckle (11) is used for unlocking and fastening when the shoes are attached and detached.
Unlock by pressing the side button of (8), locking device A
By inserting (4) into the locking tool B (8), the fastening can be easily performed with one touch.

[0012]

[Effect] As described in the embodiments, by using the one-touch buckle according to the present invention, it is not necessary to tie shoelaces when putting on shoes, and after wearing the shoes, the one-touch buckle engages to secure the instep band in a zigzag shape. To conclude. When you take off your shoes, you can unlock the one-touch buckle with just one touch, and you do not need to remove the laces. Therefore, the present invention can greatly improve the operability as compared with the prior art, and is extremely useful especially for those who are not good at tying and unfastening shoelaces such as children, the elderly, and persons with disabilities.

Further, since it is not necessary to pass the shoelace, eyelets are unnecessary. When eyelets are needed, it is necessary to sew a tongue under the opening of the front instep to prevent the eyelets from directly hitting the instep. Is sewn on the upper surface of the opening on the front instep. As a result, it is possible to prevent the entry of sand and pebbles through the openings more reliably than before. In addition, even during intense exercise, it does not loosen or come off unlike the conventional front rubber, hook-and-loop fastener, and zipper, and there is no worry of the shoes coming off.
