Description
習知鞋類物件大體上包含兩個主要元件,一鞋面及一鞋底結構。鞋面經緊固至鞋底結構且在鞋類之內部形成用於舒適且牢固地收納一腳部之一空間。鞋底結構經緊固至鞋面之一下區域,藉此定位於鞋面與地面之間。舉例而言,在運動鞋類中,鞋底結構可包含一中底及一外底。中底通常包含一聚合物發泡體材料,其減弱地面反作用力以在步行、跑步及其他走動活動期間減輕腳部及腿部上的壓力。另外,中底可包含流體填充室、板、緩和器或其他元件,其等進一步減弱力、增強穩定性或影響腳部之運動。外底經緊固至中底之一下表面且提供由一耐用且耐磨材料(諸如橡膠)形成之鞋底結構之一地面接合部分。鞋底結構亦可包含一鞋墊,其定位於空間內且緊鄰腳部之一下表面以增強鞋類舒適性。 Conventional footwear articles generally comprise two main components, an upper and a sole structure. The upper is secured to the sole structure and forms a space within the footwear for comfortably and securely receiving a foot. The sole structure is secured to a lower region of the upper for positioning between the upper and the ground. For example, in athletic footwear, the sole structure can include a midsole and an outsole. The midsole typically contains a polymeric foam material that attenuates ground reaction forces to relieve stress on the feet and legs during walking, running, and other walking activities. Additionally, the midsole may comprise a fluid-filled chamber, plate, damper or other element that further attenuates forces, enhances stability, or affects movement of the foot. The outsole is secured to a lower surface of the midsole and provides a ground engaging portion of the sole structure formed from a durable and wear resistant material such as rubber. The sole structure may also include an insole positioned within the space and adjacent one of the lower surfaces of the foot to enhance footwear comfort.
鞋面大體上延伸在腳部之背部及腳趾區域上方、沿著腳部之內側及外側、在腳部下方且圍繞腳部之腳跟區域。在一些鞋類物件(諸如籃球鞋類及靴子)中,鞋面可沿著腳踝向上且圍繞腳踝延伸以為腳踝提供支撐或保護。一般言之,藉由鞋類之一腳跟區域中之一腳踝開口出入鞋面之內部上之空間。一鞋帶系統通常併入至鞋面中以調整鞋面之配合,藉此允許腳部進入鞋面內之空間及從鞋面內之空間伸出。鞋帶系統亦允許穿著者修改鞋面之特定尺寸(特定言之,圍度)以用不 同尺寸適應腳部。另外,鞋面可包含在鞋帶系統下方延伸以增強鞋類之可調整性之一鞋舌,且鞋面可併入一腳跟後幫以限制腳跟之移動。 The upper extends generally over the back and toe regions of the foot, along the inside and outside of the foot, below the foot and around the heel region of the foot. In some articles of footwear, such as basketball footwear and boots, the upper may extend up and around the ankle to provide support or protection for the ankle. In general, the space on the inside of the upper is accessed by one of the ankle openings in one of the heel regions of the footwear. A lacing system is typically incorporated into the upper to adjust the fit of the upper, thereby allowing the foot to enter and extend from the space within the upper. The lacing system also allows the wearer to modify the specific size of the upper (specifically, the circumference) to use The same size adapts to the foot. Additionally, the upper may include one of the tongues extending below the lacing system to enhance the adjustability of the footwear, and the upper may be incorporated into a heel back to limit movement of the heel.
在製造鞋面中習知地使用各種材料元件(例如,織物、聚合物發泡體、聚合物片、皮革、合成皮革)。舉例而言,在運動鞋類中,鞋面可具有多個層,各層包含各種接合之材料元件。作為實例,材料元件可經選擇以為鞋面之不同區域賦予抗拉伸性、耐磨性、可撓性、透氣性、可壓縮性、舒適性及吸濕排汗性。為了為鞋面之不同區域賦予不同性質,材料元件通常經切割成所要形狀且隨後通常用縫合或黏合劑結合而接合在一起。再者,材料元件通常以一層狀結構接合在一起以為相同區域賦予多種性質。隨著併入至鞋面中之材料元件之數目及類型增加,相關聯於運送、存放、切割及接合材料元件之時間及費用亦可增加。來自切割及縫合程序之廢料亦隨併入至鞋面中之材料元件之數目及類型增加而更大程度地累積。再者,相較於由較少類型及數目之材料元件形成之鞋面,具有更大數目之材料元件之鞋面可更難以再回收。因此,藉由減少在鞋面中利用之材料元件之數目,可在增大鞋面之製造效率及可回收性的同時減少廢料。 Various material elements (eg, fabrics, polymer foams, polymer sheets, leather, synthetic leather) are conventionally used in the manufacture of uppers. For example, in athletic footwear, the upper may have multiple layers, each layer containing various joined material elements. As an example, the material elements can be selected to impart stretch resistance, abrasion resistance, flexibility, breathability, compressibility, comfort, and moisture wicking properties to different regions of the upper. In order to impart different properties to different regions of the upper, the material elements are typically cut into the desired shape and then joined together typically by stitching or bonding. Furthermore, the material elements are typically joined together in a layered structure to impart multiple properties to the same area. As the number and type of material elements incorporated into the upper increases, the time and expense associated with transporting, storing, cutting, and joining the material components can also increase. Waste from the cutting and stitching process also accumulates to a greater extent as the number and type of material elements incorporated into the upper increases. Moreover, uppers having a greater number of material elements can be more difficult to recycle than uppers formed from fewer types and numbers of material elements. Therefore, by reducing the number of material elements utilized in the upper, waste can be reduced while increasing the manufacturing efficiency and recyclability of the upper.

圖1至圖4圖解說明一鞋類物件100(亦簡稱為物件100)之一例示性實施例。在一些實施例中,鞋類物件100可包含一鞋底結構110及一鞋面120。儘管物件100被圖解說明為具有適合於跑步之一般結構,但相關聯於物件100之概念亦可應用至各種其他運動鞋類類型,包含(例如)足球鞋、棒球鞋、籃球鞋、騎行鞋、橄欖球鞋、網球鞋、訓練鞋、步行鞋及登山靴。該等概念亦可應用至通常被視為非運動之鞋類類型,包含禮鞋、平底便鞋、涼鞋及工作靴。因此,相對於物件100揭示之概念可應用至多種鞋類類型。 1 through 4 illustrate an exemplary embodiment of an article of footwear 100 (also referred to simply as article 100). In some embodiments, the article of footwear 100 can include a sole structure 110 and an upper 120. Although the article 100 is illustrated as having a general structure suitable for running, the concept associated with the article 100 can be applied to a variety of other athletic footwear types including, for example, soccer shoes, baseball shoes, basketball shoes, cycling shoes, Football shoes, tennis shoes, training shoes, walking shoes and hiking boots. These concepts can also be applied to footwear types that are generally considered non-sports, including sneakers, loafers, sandals and work boots. Thus, the concepts disclosed with respect to object 100 can be applied to a variety of footwear types.
出於參考目的,物件100可分成三個一般區:一前足區10、一中足區12及一腳跟區14,如在圖1、圖2及圖3中展示。前足區10大體上包含相對應於腳趾及連接蹠骨與趾骨之關節之物件100之部分。中足 區12大體上包含相對應於腳部之一弓形區域之物件100之部分。腳跟區14大體上相對應於腳之後部(包含跟骨)。物件100亦包含一外側16及一內側18,外側16及內側18延伸穿過前足區10、中足區12及腳跟區14之各者且相對應於物件100之對置側。更特定言之,外側16相對應於腳部之一外側區域(即,背向另一腳部之表面),且內側18相對應於腳部之一內側區域(即,面向另一腳部之表面)。前足區10、中足區12及腳跟區14及外側16、內側18不旨在劃分物件100之精確區域。實情係,前足區10、中足區12及腳跟區14及外側16、內側18旨在表示物件100之大體區域以幫助以下論述。除物件100以外,前足區10、中足區12及腳跟區14及外側16、內側18亦可應用至鞋底結構110、鞋面120及其等之個別元件。 For reference purposes, the article 100 can be divided into three general zones: a forefoot zone 10, a midfoot zone 12, and a heel zone 14, as shown in Figures 1, 2, and 3. The forefoot region 10 generally includes portions of the article 100 corresponding to the toes and joints connecting the tibia and phalanges. Midfoot The region 12 generally includes a portion of the article 100 corresponding to one of the arcuate regions of the foot. The heel region 14 generally corresponds to the posterior portion of the foot (including the calcaneus). The article 100 also includes an outer side 16 and an inner side 18 that extend through each of the forefoot region 10, the midfoot region 12, and the heel region 14 and correspond to opposite sides of the article 100. More specifically, the outer side 16 corresponds to one of the outer regions of the foot (ie, the surface facing away from the other leg), and the inner side 18 corresponds to one of the inner regions of the foot (ie, facing the other leg) surface). The forefoot region 10, the midfoot region 12 and the heel region 14 and the lateral side 16, the medial side 18 are not intended to divide the precise region of the article 100. In fact, the forefoot region 10, the midfoot region 12 and the heel region 14 and the lateral side 16, the medial side 18 are intended to represent the general region of the article 100 to aid in the discussion below. In addition to the article 100, the forefoot region 10, the midfoot region 12 and the heel region 14 and the outer side 16, the inner side 18 can also be applied to individual components of the sole structure 110, the upper 120, and the like.
在一例示性實施例中,鞋底結構110經緊固至鞋面120且當物件100被穿著時在腳部與地面之間延伸。在一些實施例中,鞋底結構110可包含一或多個組件,包含一中底、一外底及/或一鞋墊或內底。在一例示性實施例中,鞋底結構110可包含經緊固至鞋面120之一下表面之一外底112及/或經結構設計以將鞋底結構110緊固至鞋面120之一基部。在一項實施例中,外底112可由經紋理化以賦予牽引力之一耐磨橡膠材料形成。儘管用於鞋底結構110之此結構提供可連同鞋面120使用之一鞋底結構之一實例,但亦可使用用於鞋底結構110之其他習知或非習知結構。因此,在其他實施例中,鞋底結構110或搭配鞋面120一起使用之任何鞋底結構之特徵可變化。 In an exemplary embodiment, sole structure 110 is secured to upper 120 and extends between the foot and the ground when the article 100 is worn. In some embodiments, the sole structure 110 can include one or more components including a midsole, an outsole, and/or an insole or insole. In an exemplary embodiment, the sole structure 110 can include an outsole 112 that is secured to one of the lower surfaces of the upper 120 and/or is structurally designed to secure the sole structure 110 to one of the bases of the upper 120. In one embodiment, the outsole 112 may be formed from a wear resistant rubber material that is textured to impart traction. While this configuration for the sole structure 110 provides one example of a sole structure that may be used in conjunction with the upper 120, other conventional or non-conventional structures for the sole structure 110 may be used. Thus, in other embodiments, the features of the sole structure 110 or any sole structure used with the upper 120 may vary.
舉例而言,在其他實施例中,鞋底結構110可包含一中底及/或一鞋墊。一中底可經緊固至一鞋面之一下表面且在一些情況中可由當在步行、跑步或其他走動活動期間在腳部與地面之間受到壓縮時減弱地面反作用力(即,提供緩衝)之一可壓縮聚合物發泡體元件(例如,聚氨酯或乙烯醋酸乙烯酯共聚物發泡體)形成。在其他情況中,一中底可 併入進一步減弱作用力、增強穩定性或影響腳部之運動之薄板、緩和器、流體填充室、鞋楦元件或運動控制部件。仍在其他情況中,中底可主要由定位於一鞋面內之一流體填充腔形成且經定位以在腳部之一下表面下方延伸以增強一物件之舒適性。 For example, in other embodiments, sole structure 110 can include a midsole and/or an insole. A midsole may be secured to a lower surface of a shoe upper and in some cases may attenuate ground reaction forces (ie, provide cushioning) when compressed between the foot and the ground during walking, running, or other walking activities. One of the compressible polymer foam elements (for example, polyurethane or ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer foam) is formed. In other cases, a midsole can A sheet, damper, fluid-filled chamber, shoe last element or motion control component that further attenuates the force, enhances stability, or affects the movement of the foot. In still other cases, the midsole may be formed primarily by a fluid-filled cavity positioned within an upper and positioned to extend below a lower surface of the foot to enhance the comfort of an article.
在一些實施例中,鞋面120界定物件100內之一空間以用於收納且相對於鞋底結構110緊固一腳部。空間經塑型以適應腳部且沿著腳部之一外側、沿著腳部之一內側、在腳部上方、圍繞腳跟且在腳部下方延伸。鞋面120包含一外表面121及一對置內表面122。然而,外表面121面向外且遠離物件100,內表面122面向內且界定物件100內之空間之大部分或一相對大部分以用於收納腳部。再者,內表面122可倚靠腳部或覆蓋腳部之一襪。鞋面120亦可包含定位於至少腳跟區14中且形成一喉部開口140之一鞋領123。藉由喉部開口140提供出入空間。更特定言之,腳部可通過由鞋領123形成之喉部開口140插入至鞋面120中,且腳部可通過由鞋領123形成之喉部開口140從鞋面120伸出。在一些實施例中,一腳背區域150從腳跟區14中之鞋領123及腳踝開口140在對應於中足區12中之腳部之一腳背之一區域上方向前延伸至鄰近前足區10之一區域。 In some embodiments, upper 120 defines a space within article 100 for receiving and securing a foot relative to sole structure 110. The space is shaped to fit the foot and along one of the outside of the foot, along one of the inside of the foot, above the foot, around the heel and below the foot. Upper 120 includes an outer surface 121 and a pair of inner surfaces 122. However, the outer surface 121 faces outward and away from the article 100, the inner surface 122 facing inward and defining a majority or a substantial portion of the space within the article 100 for receiving the foot. Furthermore, the inner surface 122 can rest against the foot or cover one of the socks. Upper 120 may also include a collar 123 positioned in at least heel region 14 and forming a throat opening 140. The access space is provided by the throat opening 140. More specifically, the foot can be inserted into the upper 120 through the throat opening 140 formed by the collar 123, and the foot can extend from the upper 120 through the throat opening 140 formed by the collar 123. In some embodiments, an instep region 150 extends from the collar 123 and the ankle opening 140 in the heel region 14 over a region corresponding to one of the insteps of the foot in the midfoot region 12 to adjacent the forefoot region 10 An area.
在一些實施例中,鞋面120可包含一鞋舌部分152。鞋舌部分152可穿過腳背區域150安置於鞋面120之外側16與內側18之間。在一例示性實施例中,鞋舌部分152可穿過腳背區域150沿著外側及內側整體附接至具有鞋面120之部分之單式編織構造且由具有鞋面120之部分之單式編織構造形成。因此,如在圖式中展示,鞋面120可實質上連續延伸橫跨外側16與內側18之間的腳背區域。在其他實施例中,鞋舌部分152可穿過腳背區域150沿著外側及內側斷開連接,使得鞋舌部分152可在腳背區域150之對置側上之一外部與一內部之間的一開口內移動。 In some embodiments, upper 120 can include a tongue portion 152. The tongue portion 152 can be disposed between the outer side 16 and the inner side 18 of the upper 120 through the instep region 150. In an exemplary embodiment, the tongue portion 152 can be integrally attached to the unitary knit construction having portions of the upper 120 along the outer and inner sides through the instep region 150 and woven by a single piece having portions of the upper 120 The structure is formed. Thus, as shown in the drawings, upper 120 may extend substantially continuously across the instep region between outer side 16 and inner side 18. In other embodiments, the tongue portion 152 can be disconnected along the outer and inner sides through the instep region 150 such that the tongue portion 152 can be between one of the exterior and the interior of the instep region 150. Move inside the opening.
一鞋帶154延伸穿過鞋面120中之複數個鞋帶孔隙153且允許穿著者修改鞋面120之尺寸以適應腳部之比例。在一些實施例中,鞋帶154可延伸穿過沿著腳背區域150之兩側安置之鞋帶孔隙153。更特定言之,鞋帶154允許穿著者圍繞腳部拉緊鞋面120,且鞋帶154允許穿著者鬆開鞋面120以促進腳部進入空間及從空間伸出(即,通過喉部開口140)。另外,鞋面120在腳背區域150中之鞋舌部分152在鞋帶154下方延伸以增強物件100之舒適性。在圖1中使用物件100圖解說明鞋帶154,但出於簡明之目的可在圖2至圖4中省略鞋帶154。在進一步結構中,鞋面120可包含額外元件,諸如:(a)腳跟區14中之一腳跟後幫,其增強穩定性;(b)前足區10中之一護腳板,其由一耐磨材料形成;及(c)標誌、商標及具有保養說明及材料資訊之標貼。 A lace 154 extends through the plurality of lace apertures 153 in the upper 120 and allows the wearer to modify the size of the upper 120 to accommodate the proportion of the foot. In some embodiments, the lace 154 can extend through the lace apertures 153 disposed along the sides of the instep region 150. More specifically, the lace 154 allows the wearer to tighten the upper 120 around the foot, and the lace 154 allows the wearer to loosen the upper 120 to facilitate entry and exit of the foot from the space (ie, through the throat opening) 140). Additionally, the tongue portion 152 of the upper 120 in the instep region 150 extends below the lace 154 to enhance the comfort of the article 100. The shoelace 154 is illustrated in FIG. 1 using the article 100, but the lace 154 may be omitted in FIGS. 2 through 4 for purposes of brevity. In a further configuration, upper 120 may include additional components such as: (a) one of the heel regions 14 in the heel region for enhanced stability; (b) one of the forefoot regions 10, which is protected from wear Material formation; and (c) signs, trademarks and labels with maintenance instructions and material information.
在一些實施例中,鞋面120可包含具有單絲線之一或多個部分(如將在下文中更詳細描述)。單絲線可由經受壓以形成單絲線之一塑膠或聚合物材料製成。一般言之,單絲線可為輕量的且具有一高拉伸強度,即,能夠在拉伸失敗或斷裂之前維持較大程度之壓力,從而提供對拉伸至鞋面120之一較大量或程度之抵抗。在一例示性實施例中,鞋面120包含單絲線之部分可定位於一或多個單絲區域160中。 In some embodiments, upper 120 may comprise one or more portions having a monofilament thread (as will be described in more detail below). The monofilament strands can be made of a plastic or polymeric material that is subjected to compression to form a monofilament strand. In general, the monofilament strands can be lightweight and have a high tensile strength, i.e., can maintain a greater degree of pressure prior to failure or breakage of the stretch, thereby providing a greater amount of stretch to one of the uppers 120 or Resistance to the extent. In an exemplary embodiment, the portion of the upper 120 that includes the monofilament strands can be positioned in one or more monofilament regions 160.
在一些實施例中,單絲區域160可定位於鞋面120之各種部分上。在一例示性實施例中,一或多個單絲區域160可定位於物件100中鞋面120將大體上平坦倚靠安置於鞋面120內之一穿著者之一腳部之部分上。在此實施例中,單絲區域160包含安置於鞋面120之內側18上之一內單絲部分162及安置於鞋面120之外側16上之一外單絲部分166。內單絲部分162及外單絲部分166可大體上定位於中足區12中。在一些實施例中,單絲區域160可進一步包含在鞋面120之前足區10中安置於腳背區域150前方之一前足單絲部分164。 In some embodiments, the monofilament area 160 can be positioned on various portions of the upper 120. In an exemplary embodiment, one or more monofilament regions 160 may be positioned in article 100 where upper 120 will rest substantially flat against a portion of one of the wearer's feet within upper 120. In this embodiment, the monofilament area 160 includes a monofilament portion 162 disposed on one of the inner sides 18 of the upper 120 and an outer monofilament portion 166 disposed on the outer side 16 of the upper 120. The inner monofilament portion 162 and the outer monofilament portion 166 can be positioned generally in the midfoot region 12. In some embodiments, the monofilament area 160 can further include a forefoot monofilament portion 164 disposed in front of the instep region 150 in the foot region 10 prior to the upper 120.
在一些實施例中,單絲區域160可在橫跨鞋面120之各單絲區域 160之間實質上連續。舉例而言,在一項實施例中,內單絲部分162可與前足單絲部分164連續,且外單絲部分166亦可與前足單絲部分164連續。憑藉此結構,單絲區域160可形成從外側16橫跨前足區10至內側18而延伸橫跨鞋面120之一實質上連續帶。在其他實施例中,包含內單絲部分162、前足單絲部分164及/或外單絲部分166之各單絲區域160可與安置於鞋面120上之其他單絲區域160不連續。在其中單絲區域160不連續之實施例中,各單絲區域160(例如,內單絲部分162、前足單絲部分164及/或外單絲部分166)可被鞋面120之其餘部分圍繞或外接。 In some embodiments, the monofilament area 160 can be in the monofilament area across the upper 120 The 160 is substantially continuous. For example, in one embodiment, the inner monofilament portion 162 can be continuous with the forefoot monofilament portion 164, and the outer monofilament portion 166 can also be continuous with the forefoot monofilament portion 164. With this configuration, the monofilament area 160 can form a substantially continuous strip extending across the forefoot 120 from the outer side 16 across the forefoot region 10 to the medial side 18. In other embodiments, each monofilament area 160 comprising the inner monofilament portion 162, the front foot monofilament portion 164, and/or the outer monofilament portion 166 may be discontinuous with other monofilament regions 160 disposed on the upper 120. In embodiments in which the monofilament area 160 is discontinuous, each monofilament area 160 (eg, inner monofilament portion 162, forefoot monofilament portion 164, and/or outer monofilament portion 166) may be surrounded by the remainder of upper 120 Or external.
許多習知鞋類鞋面由透過縫合或結合而接合之多個材料元件(例如,織物、聚合物發泡體、聚合物片、皮革、合成皮革)形成。相比言之,在一些實施例中,鞋面120之大部分由一編織組件130形成,此將在下文中更詳細論述。舉例而言,編織組件130可透過一橫編程序製成且穿過前足區10、中足區12及腳跟區14之各者,沿著外側16及內側18二者、在前足區10上方且圍繞腳跟區14延伸。在一例示性實施例中,編織組件130實質上形成全部鞋面120,包含外表面121及內表面122之大部分或一相對大部分,藉此界定鞋面120內之空間之一部分。在一些實施例中,編織組件130亦可在腳部下方延伸。然而,在其他實施例中,一中底布(strobel sock)或鞋底狀薄片材料經緊固至編織組件130以形成鞋面120之一基部,其在腳部下方延伸以與鞋底結構110附接。另外,一縫線129垂直延伸穿過腳跟區14(如在圖4中描繪)以接合編織組件130之邊緣。 Many conventional footwear uppers are formed from a plurality of material elements (eg, fabric, polymer foam, polymer sheet, leather, synthetic leather) joined by stitching or bonding. In contrast, in some embodiments, a majority of the upper 120 is formed from a braided component 130, as will be discussed in greater detail below. For example, the braid assembly 130 can be made through a cross-cutting process and passes through each of the forefoot region 10, the midfoot region 12, and the heel region 14, along both the lateral side 16 and the medial side 18, above the forefoot region 10 and Extending around the heel region 14. In an exemplary embodiment, the braided component 130 substantially forms the entire upper 120, including most or a substantial portion of the outer surface 121 and the inner surface 122, thereby defining a portion of the space within the upper 120. In some embodiments, the braided component 130 can also extend below the foot. However, in other embodiments, a strobel sock or sole-like sheet material is secured to the braid assembly 130 to form a base of the upper 120 that extends below the foot for attachment to the sole structure 110 . Additionally, a suture 129 extends vertically through the heel region 14 (as depicted in FIG. 4) to engage the edge of the braid assembly 130.
儘管編織組件130中可存在縫線,但編織組件130之大部分具有一實質上無縫線結構。再者,編織組件130可由單式編織構造形成。如在本文中利用,當一編織組件(例如,編織組件130)透過一編織程序形成為一單件元件時,其被定義為由「單式編織構造」形成。即, 編織程序在不需顯著額外製造步驟或程序之情況下實質上形成編織組件130之各種特徵及結構。一單式編織構造可用於形成具有包含一或多個紗線、線或編織材料緯圈之結構或元件之一編織組件,紗線、線或其他編織材料經接合使得結構或元件共同包含至少一個緯圈(即,共用一共同紗線)及/或包含實質上在結構或元件之各者之間連續之緯圈。使用此配置提供單式編織構造之一單件元件。 Although sutures may be present in the braided component 130, a majority of the braided component 130 has a substantially seamless line structure. Again, the braided component 130 can be formed from a unitary knit construction. As utilized herein, a woven component (e.g., woven component 130) is defined as being formed from a "single woven construction" when formed into a single piece by a knitting process. which is, The weaving process substantially forms the various features and structures of the braided component 130 without the need for significant additional manufacturing steps or procedures. A single woven construction can be used to form a woven component having a structure or element comprising one or more yams, threads or woven wefts, the yarn, thread or other woven material being joined such that the structure or component together comprise at least one The wefts (i.e., sharing a common yarn) and/or the latitudes that are substantially continuous between the structures or elements. Use this configuration to provide a one-piece component in a single braided construction.
儘管可在編織程序隨後將編織組件130之部分接合至彼此(例如,將編織組件130之邊緣接合在一起),但編織組件130仍由單式編織構造形成,此係因為其形成為一單件編織元件。再者,當在編織程序隨後添加其他元件(例如,一鞋帶、標誌、商標、具有保養說明及材料資訊之標貼)時,編織組件130仍由單式編織構造形成。 Although the knitting program can then join portions of the knit assembly 130 to each other (eg, joining the edges of the knit assembly 130 together), the knit assembly 130 is still formed from a unitary knit construction because it is formed as a single piece. Knitting element. Further, when other components (e.g., a shoelace, logo, trademark, label with care instructions and material information) are subsequently added to the knitting program, the braid assembly 130 is still formed from a unitary knit construction.
編織組件130可併入為鞋面120之分開區域賦予不同性質之各種類型之紗線。即,編織組件130之一個區域可由賦予一第一組性質之一第一類型之紗線形成,且編織組件130之另一區域可由賦予一第二組性質之一第二類型之紗線形成。在此結構中,可藉由針對編織組件130之不同區域選擇特定紗線而使遍及鞋面120之性質變化。一特定類型之紗線將賦予至編織組件130之一區域之性質部分取決於形成紗線內之各種絲及纖維之材料。舉例而言,棉提供柔軟手感、天然美感及可生物降解性。彈性及拉伸聚酯各提供顯著拉伸性及恢複性,其中拉伸聚酯亦提供可回收性。人造絲提供強光澤及吸濕性。毛料除絕緣性質及可生物降解性外亦提供高吸濕性。尼龍係具有相對高強度之一耐用且耐磨材料。聚酯係亦提供相對高耐用性之一疏水材料。除材料外,針對編織組件130選擇之紗線之其他態樣亦可影響鞋面120之性質。舉例而言,形成編織組件130之一紗線可為一單絲紗線或一多絲紗線。紗線亦可包含各由不同材料形成之分開絲。另外,紗線可包含各由兩個或兩個以上不同材料形成之絲,諸如具有含有一護套核心結 構之絲或由不同材料形成之兩半之一雙組份紗線。不同程度之經撚及捲邊以及不同纖度亦可影響鞋面120之性質。因此,形成紗線及紗線之其他態樣之材料二者可經選擇以賦予各種性質至鞋面120之分開區域。 Knit assembly 130 can incorporate various types of yarns that impart different properties to separate regions of upper 120. That is, one region of the braided component 130 can be formed from a first type of yarn that imparts a first set of properties, and another region of the braided component 130 can be formed from a second type of yarn that imparts a second set of properties. In this configuration, the properties of the upper 120 can be varied by selecting a particular yarn for different regions of the braid assembly 130. The nature of a particular type of yarn that will be imparted to a region of the braided component 130 depends in part on the materials that form the various filaments and fibers within the yarn. For example, cotton provides a soft hand, natural beauty, and biodegradability. Elastic and stretched polyesters each provide significant stretchability and recovery, with stretched polyester also providing recyclability. Rayon provides strong gloss and moisture absorption. In addition to the insulating properties and biodegradability, the wool provides high hygroscopicity. Nylon is a durable and wear resistant material with relatively high strength. The polyester system also provides one of the relatively high durability of hydrophobic materials. In addition to the material, other aspects of the yarn selected for the braided component 130 can also affect the properties of the upper 120. For example, one of the yarns forming the braided component 130 can be a monofilament yarn or a multifilament yarn. The yarn may also comprise separate filaments each formed of a different material. Additionally, the yarn may comprise filaments each formed of two or more different materials, such as having a sheath core knot A filament of yarn or a two-component yarn of two halves formed of different materials. Different degrees of warp and curling and different deniers can also affect the properties of the upper 120. Thus, both the yarn forming the yarn and other aspects of the yarn can be selected to impart various properties to separate regions of the upper 120.
在編織組件130之一些結構中,形成紗線之材料可為不可熔或可熔的。舉例而言,一不可熔紗線可實質上由一熱固性聚酯材料形成且可熔紗線可至少部分由一熱塑性聚酯材料形成。當一可熔紗線被加熱且熔合至不可熔紗線時,此程序可具有硬化或僵化編織組件130之結構之效果。再者,使用可熔紗線接合不可熔紗線之部分可具有在編織組件130內緊固或鎖定不可熔紗線之對置位置之效果,藉此賦予抗拉伸性及硬度。即,不可熔紗線之部分在與可熔紗線熔合時無法相對於彼此滑動,藉此防止編織組件130歸因於編織結構之相對移動而翹曲或永久拉伸。在編織組件130之部分中使用可熔紗線之另一特徵係關於在編織組件130之一部分變得受損或不可熔紗線之一者被切斷之情況下,限制拆散。因此,編織組件130之區域可構形為有編織結構內之可熔及不可熔紗線二者。 In some constructions of braided component 130, the material from which the yarn is formed may be non-fusible or fusible. For example, a non-fusible yarn can be formed substantially of a thermoset polyester material and the fusible yarn can be formed at least in part from a thermoplastic polyester material. This procedure may have the effect of hardening or rigidifying the structure of the braided component 130 when a fusible yarn is heated and fused to the non-fusible yarn. Further, the portion in which the fusible yarn is joined using the fusible yarn may have the effect of fastening or locking the opposing position of the non-fusible yarn within the braided component 130, thereby imparting stretch resistance and hardness. That is, portions of the non-fusible yarn cannot slide relative to one another when fused to the fusible yarn, thereby preventing the braid assembly 130 from warping or permanently stretching due to relative movement of the braided structure. Another feature of using a fusible yarn in a portion of the braided component 130 is to limit disassembly in the event that one of the braided components 130 becomes damaged or one of the non-fusible yarns is severed. Thus, the region of the braided component 130 can be configured to have both fusible and non-fusible yarns within the braided structure.
在一例示性實施例中,鞋面120可包含一第一類型之紗線,其經編織以形成編織組件130除單絲區域160外之部分。可藉由使用一單絲線編織形成鞋面120上之單絲區域160,以形成具有使用第一類型之紗線編織之部分之單式編織構造之編織組件130。即,單絲區域160由具有編織組件130之其餘部分之單式編織構造形成,從而成為一單件元件。 In an exemplary embodiment, upper 120 may include a first type of yarn that is woven to form a portion of knitted component 130 other than monofilament area 160. The monofilament area 160 on the upper 120 can be formed by weaving using a monofilament thread to form a braided component 130 having a unitary knit construction using portions of the first type of yarn weave. That is, the monofilament area 160 is formed from a unitary knit construction having the remainder of the knit assembly 130, thereby becoming a one-piece element.
在一些實施例中,編織組件130可包含一或多個邊界區帶。邊界區帶界定其中紗線用於編織從一種紗線類型至另一紗線類型之編織組件130轉變之編織組件130之部分。舉例而言,編織組件130可在鞋面120上之一或多個邊界區帶處從一第一類型之紗線轉變成形成單絲區 域160之一單絲線。在一例示性實施例中,第一類型之紗線在相關聯於單絲區域160之各者之一或多個邊界區帶處從一天然或合成經撚纖維紗線轉變成單絲線。在此實施例中,內單絲部分162包含朝向鞋面120之腳跟區14安置之一後部內邊界200,其中形成內單絲部分162之一單絲線轉變成用於形成編織組件130之其餘部分之第一類型之紗線。內單絲部分162可進一步包含一頂部內邊界204及一底部內邊界206。在一項實施例中,頂部內邊界204沿著鞋面120之內側18定位且可與鞋領123及喉部開口140隔開一第一距離D1。在一項實施例中,底部內邊界206亦沿著鞋面120之內側18定位且可與鞋底結構110隔開一第二距離D2。 In some embodiments, the braided component 130 can include one or more boundary zones. The boundary zone defines a portion of the braided component 130 in which the yarn is used to weave a braided component 130 that transitions from one yarn type to another. For example, the braid assembly 130 can be converted from a first type of yarn to a monofilament area at one or more boundary zones on the upper 120. One of the domains 160 is a monofilament thread. In an exemplary embodiment, the first type of yarn is converted from a natural or synthetic warp fiber yarn to a monofilament strand at one or more boundary zones associated with each of the monofilament regions 160. In this embodiment, the inner monofilament portion 162 includes a rear inner boundary 200 disposed toward the heel region 14 of the upper 120, wherein a monofilament line forming one of the inner monofilament portions 162 is converted to form the remainder of the braid assembly 130 The first type of yarn. Inner monofilament portion 162 can further include a top inner boundary 204 and a bottom inner boundary 206. In one embodiment, the top inner boundary 204 is positioned along the inner side 18 of the upper 120 and may be spaced apart from the collar 123 and the throat opening 140 by a first distance D1. In one embodiment, the bottom inner boundary 206 is also positioned along the inner side 18 of the upper 120 and may be spaced apart from the sole structure 110 by a second distance D2.
在一些實施例中,前部內邊界202可在鞋面120上界定內單絲部分162之一前部位置。在其中單絲區域160實質上連續之實施例中,前部內邊界202可簡單轉變成前足單絲部分164。然而,在其中各單絲區域160不連續之實施例中,前部內邊界202可界定從單絲線變回至第一紗線類型之轉變。應理解,在此等不連續實施例中,前足單絲部分164將藉由其中紗線再次轉變回至單絲線之另一邊界區帶界定。 In some embodiments, the front inner boundary 202 can define a front position on the upper 120 of the inner monofilament portion 162. In embodiments where the monofilament area 160 is substantially continuous, the front inner boundary 202 can be simply converted into the forefoot monofilament portion 164. However, in embodiments where each monofilament region 160 is discontinuous, the front inner boundary 202 can define a transition from a monofilament line back to a first yarn type. It should be understood that in such discontinuous embodiments, the forefoot monofilament portion 164 will be defined by another boundary zone in which the yarn is again converted back to the monofilament line.
繼續沿著鞋面120,前足單絲部分164可包含一後部前足邊界208及一前部前足邊界209。在一項實施例中,後部前足邊界208可定位於腳背區域150前方且隔開一第三距離D3。類似地,前部前足邊界209可定位於物件100之一腳趾端附近且隔開一第四距離D4。在此實施例中,外單絲部分166包含朝向鞋面120之腳跟區14安置之一後部外邊界210,其中形成外單絲部分166之一單絲線轉變成用於形成編織組件130之其餘部分之第一類型之紗線。外單絲部分166可進一步包含一頂部外邊界214及一底部外邊界216。在一項實施例中,頂部外邊界214沿著鞋面120之外側16定位且可與鞋領123及喉部開口140隔開一第五距離D5。在一項實施例中,底部外邊界216亦沿著鞋面120之外側16 定位且可與鞋底結構110隔開一第六距離D6。 Continuing along the upper 120, the forefoot monofilament portion 164 can include a posterior forefoot boundary 208 and a anterior forefoot boundary 209. In one embodiment, the posterior forefoot boundary 208 can be positioned forward of the instep region 150 and separated by a third distance D3. Similarly, the front forefoot boundary 209 can be positioned adjacent one of the toe ends of the article 100 and separated by a fourth distance D4. In this embodiment, the outer monofilament portion 166 includes a rear outer boundary 210 disposed toward the heel region 14 of the upper 120, wherein a monofilament line forming one of the outer monofilament portions 166 is converted to form the remainder of the braid assembly 130 The first type of yarn. The outer monofilament portion 166 can further include a top outer boundary 214 and a bottom outer boundary 216. In one embodiment, the top outer boundary 214 is positioned along the outer side 16 of the upper 120 and may be spaced a fifth distance D5 from the collar 123 and the throat opening 140. In one embodiment, the bottom outer boundary 216 is also along the outer side of the upper 120. Positioned and separable from the sole structure 110 by a sixth distance D6.
在不同實施例中,相關聯於第一距離D1、第二距離D2、第三距離D3、第四距離D4、第五距離D5及/或第六距離D6之距離可變化。舉例而言,在一些情況中,第一距離D1及第五距離D5可從1公分變化至4公分。在一例示性實施例中,第一距離D1及第五距離D5可為約2公分至3公分。在一些情況中,第二距離D2及第六距離D6可從0.1公分變化至1公分。在一例示性實施例中,第二距離D2及第六距離D6可為約0.25公分至0.5公分。在一些情況中,第三距離D3可從1公分變化至4公分。在一項實施例中,第三距離D3可為約2公分至3公分。在一些情況中,第四距離D4可從2公分變化至6公分。在一項實施例中,第四距離D4可為約3公分至5公分。在其他情況中,相關聯於第一距離D1、第二距離D2、第三距離D3、第四距離D4、第五距離D5及/或第六距離D6之距離可更大或更小以提供變化形狀及/或尺寸之單絲區域160。 In various embodiments, the distances associated with the first distance D1, the second distance D2, the third distance D3, the fourth distance D4, the fifth distance D5, and/or the sixth distance D6 may vary. For example, in some cases, the first distance D1 and the fifth distance D5 may vary from 1 cm to 4 cm. In an exemplary embodiment, the first distance D1 and the fifth distance D5 may be about 2 cm to 3 cm. In some cases, the second distance D2 and the sixth distance D6 may vary from 0.1 cm to 1 cm. In an exemplary embodiment, the second distance D2 and the sixth distance D6 may be about 0.25 cm to 0.5 cm. In some cases, the third distance D3 may vary from 1 cm to 4 cm. In one embodiment, the third distance D3 can be from about 2 cm to 3 cm. In some cases, the fourth distance D4 can vary from 2 cm to 6 cm. In one embodiment, the fourth distance D4 can be from about 3 cm to 5 cm. In other cases, the distances associated with the first distance D1, the second distance D2, the third distance D3, the fourth distance D4, the fifth distance D5, and/or the sixth distance D6 may be larger or smaller to provide a change A monofilament area 160 of shape and/or size.
在一些實施例中,一前部外邊界212可在鞋面120上界定外單絲部分166之一前部位置。類似於前部內邊界202,在其中單絲區域160實質上連續之實施例中,前部外邊界212可簡單轉變成前足單絲部分164。然而,在其中各單絲區域160不連續之實施例中,前部外邊界212可界定從單絲線變回至第一紗線類型之轉變。應理解,在此等不連續實施例中,前足單絲部分164將藉由其中紗線再次轉變回至單絲線之另一邊界區帶界定。 In some embodiments, a front outer boundary 212 can define a front position on the upper 120 of the outer monofilament portion 166. Similar to the front inner boundary 202, in embodiments where the monofilament area 160 is substantially continuous, the front outer boundary 212 can be simply converted into the front foot monofilament portion 164. However, in embodiments where each monofilament region 160 is discontinuous, the front outer boundary 212 can define a transition from a monofilament line back to a first yarn type. It should be understood that in such discontinuous embodiments, the forefoot monofilament portion 164 will be defined by another boundary zone in which the yarn is again converted back to the monofilament line.
在一些實施例中,內單絲部分162及外單絲部分166在內側18及外側16之各者上可具有類似配置從而近似對稱。在此等實施例中,第一距離D1及第五距離D5可約相等。類似地,第二距離D2及第六距離D6亦可約相等。然而,在其他實施例中,內側18及外側16之各者可具有在各側之間不同之單絲區域160。因此,在此等其他實施例中, 第一距離D1及第五距離D5之各者可不同及/或第二距離D2及第六距離D6可不同,以將內單絲部分162及外單絲部分166進一步定位於更遠離於或更接近於鞋領123及/或鞋底結構110。仍在其他實施例中,僅內側18或外側16之一者可包含單絲區域160。應理解,可根據本文中描述之程序配置具有不同尺寸、形狀及/或位置之單絲區域160之其他結構。 In some embodiments, inner monofilament portion 162 and outer monofilament portion 166 may have similar configurations on each of inner side 18 and outer side 16 to be approximately symmetrical. In these embodiments, the first distance D1 and the fifth distance D5 may be approximately equal. Similarly, the second distance D2 and the sixth distance D6 may also be approximately equal. However, in other embodiments, each of the inner side 18 and the outer side 16 can have a monofilament area 160 that differs between the sides. Thus, in other embodiments, Each of the first distance D1 and the fifth distance D5 may be different and/or the second distance D2 and the sixth distance D6 may be different to further position the inner monofilament portion 162 and the outer monofilament portion 166 further away or more Close to the collar 123 and/or the sole structure 110. In still other embodiments, only one of the inner side 18 or the outer side 16 may comprise a monofilament area 160. It should be understood that other configurations of monofilament regions 160 having different sizes, shapes, and/or locations may be configured in accordance with the procedures described herein.
在一些實施例中,鞋面120上之單絲區域160可取決於用於製成形成各自單絲區域160之單絲線之材料之特性或性質為透明、半透明或不透明的。在一項實施例中,具有約0.114毫米之一直徑之一單一單絲線可用於形成單絲區域160,其包含內單絲部分162、前足單絲部分164及外單絲部分166。在其他實施例中,可使用具有一更大或更小直徑之一單絲線。另外,在其他實施例中,可針對鞋面120上之各分開單絲區域160使用不同單絲線,從而為各自單絲區域160提供不同性質或特性。 In some embodiments, the monofilament area 160 on the upper 120 may be transparent, translucent, or opaque depending on the nature or nature of the material used to make the monofilament strands that form the respective monofilament area 160. In one embodiment, a single monofilament thread having a diameter of about 0.114 mm can be used to form a monofilament area 160 comprising an inner monofilament portion 162, a front foot monofilament portion 164, and an outer monofilament portion 166. In other embodiments, a monofilament strand having one of a larger or smaller diameter may be used. Additionally, in other embodiments, different monofilament strands may be used for each of the separate monofilament regions 160 on the upper 120 to provide different properties or characteristics to the respective monofilament regions 160.
藉由將具有單絲區域160之編織組件130併入至用於物件100之鞋面120中,單絲區域160可提供強度、抗拉伸性、減小重量及/或協助氣流穿過鞋面120以提供物件100之內部之透氣性。舉例而言,如在圖5中展示,在中足區12中沿著鞋面120之內側18及外側16之各者安置內單絲部分162及外單絲部分166。使用此結構,鞋面120之內側18及外側16可具有增加之強度及此等區域中之抗拉伸性。另外,內單絲部分162及外單絲部分166之結構允許空氣容易地穿過鞋面120至物件100之內部中。舉例而言,當一穿著者之一腳部在物件100之內部沿著鞋面120之一基部500安置時,空氣可循環至鞋面120中及循環出鞋面120以協助提供物件100透氣性。 By incorporating the braided component 130 having the monofilament area 160 into the upper 120 for the article 100, the monofilament area 160 can provide strength, stretch resistance, reduce weight, and/or assist in airflow through the upper 120 to provide breathability of the interior of the article 100. For example, as shown in FIG. 5, the inner monofilament portion 162 and the outer monofilament portion 166 are disposed along the inner side 18 and the outer side 16 of the upper 120 in the midfoot region 12. With this configuration, the inner side 18 and the outer side 16 of the upper 120 can have increased strength and stretch resistance in such areas. Additionally, the structure of inner monofilament portion 162 and outer monofilament portion 166 allows air to easily pass through upper 120 into the interior of article 100. For example, when one of the wearer's feet is placed within the interior of the article 100 along one of the bases 500 of the upper 120, air can be circulated into the upper 120 and recycled out of the upper 120 to assist in providing breathability of the article 100. .
再者,相較於完全由一天然或合成經撚纖維紗線形成之一鞋面,藉由形成具有一或多個單絲區域160之鞋面120,鞋面120之總重 量可顯著減小。舉例而言,在一項實施例中,用於一成人之尺寸8之一鞋面在使用一天然或合成經撚纖維紗線編織時可重約49克。相比言之,具有單絲區域160之鞋面120針對一類似尺寸可僅重29克。因此,相關聯於在鞋面120中針對單絲區域160使用單絲線之重量減輕可輕至少40%。另外,藉由變化鞋面120上之單絲區域160之數目、形狀及/或尺寸,可達成額外重量減輕以使重量減小超過40%。 Further, the total weight of the upper 120 is formed by forming the upper 120 having one or more monofilament regions 160 as compared to an upper formed entirely from a natural or synthetic warp fiber yarn. The amount can be significantly reduced. For example, in one embodiment, one of the sizes 8 for an adult size can weigh about 49 grams when woven with a natural or synthetic warp fiber yarn. In contrast, upper 120 having monofilament area 160 may weigh only 29 grams for a similar size. Thus, the weight reduction associated with the use of a monofilament strand in the upper 120 for the monofilament area 160 can be at least 40% lighter. Additionally, by varying the number, shape, and/or size of the monofilament regions 160 on the upper 120, additional weight reduction can be achieved to reduce the weight by more than 40%.

In this embodiment, the braided component 130 has a generally Y-shaped configuration profiled by an outer perimeter edge 600. In this embodiment, the outer perimeter edge 600 extends around the braid assembly 130 from the outer side 16 to the inner side 18. The outer perimeter of the braided component 130 also includes a pair of heel edges 602 disposed on each of the outer side 16 and the inner side 18. In an exemplary embodiment, the braided component 130 can further include an inner perimeter edge along one of the collars 123 that will be associated with the throat opening 140 described above and define the throat opening 140. When incorporated into an article of footwear (including article 100), at least a portion of outer perimeter edge 600 and heel edge 602 can rest against one of the upper surfaces of sole structure 110 as base 500 (shown in Figure 5). In other embodiments, the braided component 130 can be joined to a backing or insole attached to one of the sole structures 110. Additionally, the heel edges 602 are joined to each other and extend vertically in the heel region 14 of the article 100 to form a suture 129. In some embodiments of an article of footwear, a material element can cover the suture 129 between the heel edge 602 to reinforce the suture 129 and enhance the aesthetic appearance of the article.
編織組件130可包含由具有鞋面120之其餘部分之單式編織構造形成之腳背區域150,如在上文描述。在一些實施例中,腳背區域150包含安置於編織組件130中之複數個鞋帶孔隙153。鞋帶孔隙153可穿過編織組件130從外表面121延伸至內表面122且經結構設計以收納一鞋帶(包含鞋帶154)。在一例示性實施例中,鞋帶孔隙153可藉由編織直接形成至編織組件130中。然而,在其他實施例中,鞋帶孔隙153可 包含添加至編織組件130之額外加強元件。 The braid assembly 130 can include an instep region 150 formed from a unitary knit construction having the remainder of the upper 120, as described above. In some embodiments, the instep region 150 includes a plurality of lace apertures 153 disposed in the braid assembly 130. The lace apertures 153 can extend through the braid assembly 130 from the outer surface 121 to the inner surface 122 and are structurally designed to receive a lace (including laces 154). In an exemplary embodiment, the lace apertures 153 can be formed directly into the braided component 130 by weaving. However, in other embodiments, the lace aperture 153 can Additional reinforcing elements added to the braided component 130 are included.
在各種實施例中,編織組件130可併入賦予不同性質至鞋面120之分開區域之各種類型之紗線。舉例而言,編織組件130之一個區域可由賦予一第一組性質之一第一類型之紗線形成,且第一編織組件130之另一區域可由賦予一第二組性質之一第二類型之紗線形成。在此結構中,可藉由針對編織組件130之不同區域選擇特定紗線而使遍及鞋面120之性質變化。在一例示性實施例中,編織組件130包含單絲區域160,如在上文描述。在一項實施例中,單絲區域160可包含內單絲部分162、前足單絲部分164及/或外單絲部分166。如在上文描述,編織組件130由單式編織構造形成,使得編織組件130之區域之各者(包含單絲區域160)經編織為一單件元件。 In various embodiments, the braided component 130 can incorporate various types of yarns that impart different properties to separate regions of the upper 120. For example, one region of the braided component 130 can be formed from a first type of yarn that imparts a first set of properties, and another region of the first knitted component 130 can be assigned a second set of properties of the second set. Yarn formation. In this configuration, the properties of the upper 120 can be varied by selecting a particular yarn for different regions of the braid assembly 130. In an exemplary embodiment, the braided component 130 includes a monofilament area 160, as described above. In one embodiment, the monofilament area 160 can include an inner monofilament portion 162, a front foot monofilament portion 164, and/or an outer monofilament portion 166. As described above, the braid assembly 130 is formed from a unitary knit construction such that each of the regions of the braid assembly 130 (including the monofilament region 160) is woven into a single piece of material.
現參考圖7,圖解說明沿著各種邊界區帶之單絲區域160之部分之放大圖以展示編織組件130之單式編織構造。如在上文描述,編織組件130上之邊界區帶界定其中紗線用於編織從一種紗線類型至另一紗線類型之編織組件130轉變之編織組件130之部分。舉例而言,編織組件130可在鞋面120上之一或多個邊界區帶處從一第一類型之紗線700轉變成形成單絲區域160之一單絲線701。在一例示性實施例中,第一類型之紗線700在相關聯於單絲區域160之各者之一或多個邊界區帶處從一天然或合成經撚纖維紗線轉變成單絲線701。 Referring now to Figure 7, an enlarged view of a portion of monofilament area 160 along various boundary zones is illustrated to illustrate a unitary knit construction of braided component 130. As described above, the boundary zone on the braided component 130 defines a portion of the braided component 130 in which the yarn is used to braid a braided component 130 that transitions from one yarn type to another. For example, the braided component 130 can be transitioned from a first type of yarn 700 to one of the monofilament areas 160 to form a monofilament strand 701 at one or more boundary zones on the upper 120. In an exemplary embodiment, the first type of yarn 700 is converted from a natural or synthetic warp fiber yarn to a monofilament strand 701 at one or more boundary zones associated with each of the monofilament regions 160. .
如在圖7中展示,在編織組件130之前足區10中之前部前足邊界209處,編織組件130從由單絲線701形成之前足單絲部分164轉變成由第一類型之紗線700形成之編織組件130之其餘部分。在此實施例中,單絲線701之一緯圈接合(例如,藉由套口(interlooping))至第一類型之紗線700之一相鄰緯圈。即,由編織單絲線701形成之一緯圈實質上與由編織第一類型之紗線700形成之一緯圈連續。使用此結構,單絲區域160可由具有編織組件130之單式編織構造形成。 As shown in FIG. 7, at the front forefoot boundary 209 in the foot region 10 prior to the knit assembly 130, the knit assembly 130 is converted from the front foot monofilament portion 164 formed by the monofilament strand 701 to the yarn 700 of the first type. The remainder of the braided component 130. In this embodiment, one of the wales of monofilament strand 701 is joined (e.g., by interlooping) to one of the adjacent latitudes of yarn 700 of the first type. That is, one of the latitudes formed by the woven monofilament thread 701 is substantially continuous with one of the latitudes formed by the woven first type of yarn 700. Using this configuration, the monofilament area 160 can be formed from a unitary knit construction having a braided component 130.
類似地,編織組件130之相鄰經圈亦可在邊界區帶處從一種類型之紗線轉變成一不同類型之紗線。如在圖7中展示,在頂部內邊界204處,編織組件130從由第一類型之紗線700形成之一部分轉變成由單絲線701形成之內單絲部分162。在此實施例中,第一類型之紗線700之經圈接合至單絲線701之一相鄰經圈。在一項實施例中,可使用一嵌花編織技術編織單絲區域160以沿著邊界區帶在紗線類型之間轉變。舉例而言,可藉由使用嵌花編織構造技術將第一類型之紗線700之經圈接合至單絲線701之相鄰經圈。使用此結構,單絲區域160可由具有編織組件130之單式編織構造形成。 Similarly, adjacent warp of weaving assembly 130 can also be converted from one type of yarn to a different type of yarn at the boundary zone. As shown in FIG. 7, at the top inner boundary 204, the braid assembly 130 transitions from a portion formed by the first type of yarn 700 to an inner monofilament portion 162 formed from the monofilament strand 701. In this embodiment, the warp of the first type of yarn 700 is joined to one of the monofilament strands 701 adjacent to the warp. In one embodiment, the monofilament area 160 can be woven using an intarsia weave technique to transition between yarn types along the boundary zone. For example, the warp of the first type of yarn 700 can be joined to the adjacent warp of the monofilament strand 701 by using intarsia weave construction techniques. Using this configuration, the monofilament area 160 can be formed from a unitary knit construction having a braided component 130.
藉由形成具有單式編織構造之單絲區域160之編織組件130,單絲區域160可被編織組件130之其餘部分圍繞或外接,從而使單絲區域160經受拉力。即,第一類型之紗線700可經結構設計以圍繞由單絲線701形成之單絲區域160。由於第一類型之紗線700可具有小於無彈性且抗拉伸之單絲線701之一抗拉伸性,故編織組件130可在圍繞單絲區域160之部分中拉伸,從而在單絲區域160上施加一輕微拉伸力。使用此結構,藉由編織組件130之圍繞部分在單絲區域160上施加之拉伸力可協助防止或減小可對一穿著者之一腳部產生一不適感之單絲區域160中之單絲線701中之扭結或劇烈彎曲。 By forming the braided component 130 having the monofilament area 160 of a unitary knit construction, the monofilament area 160 can be surrounded or circumscribed by the remainder of the braided component 130, thereby subjecting the monofilament area 160 to tensile forces. That is, the first type of yarn 700 can be structurally designed to surround the monofilament area 160 formed by the monofilament strands 701. Since the first type of yarn 700 can have less than one of the inelastic and stretch resistant monofilament strands 701, the braid assembly 130 can be stretched in a portion surrounding the monofilament region 160 such that in the monofilament region A slight tensile force is applied to 160. With this configuration, the tensile force exerted on the monofilament area 160 by the surrounding portion of the braided component 130 can assist in preventing or reducing the single filament region 160 that can create an uncomfortable feeling to one of the wearer's feet. The knots or sharp bends in the thread 701.
在不同實施例中,可提供併入具有不同特徵之一編織組件之一鞋類物件。在一些實施例中,一鞋類物件可在一鞋面上構形成具有不同類型之單絲區域之一編織組件。取決於所要類型及位置,可變化單絲區域以為一鞋面提供不同性質。舉例而言,在一些實施例中,具有一天然或合成經撚纖維紗線內層之一單絲區域可經結構設計以為一穿著者之一腳部提供舒適性。圖8至圖17圖解說明具有多種類型之單絲區域860之一鞋類物件800(亦簡稱為物件800)之另一例示性實施例。在一些實施例中,鞋類物件800可包含附接至上文描述之鞋底結構110 之一鞋面820。在一例示性實施例中,鞋面820可包含多種類型之單絲區域860。 In various embodiments, an article of footwear incorporating one of the braided components having different features can be provided. In some embodiments, an article of footwear can be formed on one upper to form a braided component having a different type of monofilament area. The monofilament area can be varied to provide different properties for an upper depending on the desired type and location. For example, in some embodiments, a monofilament area having an inner layer of a natural or synthetic warp fiber yarn can be structurally designed to provide comfort to one of the wearer's feet. 8 through 17 illustrate another illustrative embodiment of an article of footwear 800 (also referred to simply as article 800) having one of a plurality of types of monofilament regions 860.

In embodiments where the monofilament regions 860 are discontinuous, each monofilament region 860 can be completely surrounded or circumscribed by the remainder of the upper 820.
相較於上文描述之編織組件130,在圖8至圖16中展示之編織組件830可包含額外結構或元件。在一例示性實施例中,編織組件830之主要元件係一編織元件831及一襯墊拉伸元件832。編織元件831可由至少一個紗線形成,其被操縱(例如,使用一編織機)以形成界定各種緯圈及經圈之複數個互相嚙合紗圈。即,編織元件831具有一編織織物之結構。襯墊拉伸元件832延伸穿過編織元件831且在編織元件831內之各種紗圈之間經過。儘管襯墊拉伸元件832大體上沿著編織元件831內之緯圈延伸,但襯墊拉伸元件832亦可沿著編織元件831內之經圈延伸。襯墊拉伸元件832可賦予抗拉伸性,且當併入至物件800中時,連同鞋帶154操作以增強物件800之配合。在一例示性實施例中,襯墊拉伸元件832可穿過編織元件831之一或多個部分,包含一或多個單絲區域860之部分。 The braided component 830 shown in Figures 8-16 can include additional structures or elements as compared to the braided component 130 described above. In an exemplary embodiment, the primary components of braided component 830 are a knit element 831 and a pad tensile element 832. Knit element 831 can be formed from at least one yarn that is manipulated (e.g., using a braiding machine) to form a plurality of intermeshing loops that define various weft and warp turns. That is, the knit element 831 has a structure of a woven fabric. The pad tensile element 832 extends through the knit element 831 and passes between various loops within the knit element 831. While the pad tensile element 832 extends generally along the weft loop within the knit element 831, the pad tensile element 832 can also extend along the warp within the knit element 831. The pad tensile element 832 can impart stretch resistance and, when incorporated into the article 800, operates in conjunction with the lace 154 to enhance the fit of the article 800. In an exemplary embodiment, the pad tensile element 832 can pass through one or more portions of the knit element 831, including portions of one or more monofilament regions 860.
在一些實施例中,襯墊拉伸元件832可在一垂直方向上從鞋底結構110朝向腳背區域850向上延伸穿過編織元件831。在一例示性實施例中,襯墊拉伸元件832之部分可形成充當鞋帶孔隙853之一紗圈且接著可在垂直方向上從腳背區域850朝向鞋底結構110向下返回延伸。另外,當物件800提供有鞋帶154時,襯墊拉伸元件832可在鞋帶154被拉 緊時拉伸,且襯墊拉伸元件832抵抗鞋面820中之拉伸。再者,襯墊拉伸元件832協助圍繞腳部緊固鞋面820且連同鞋帶154操作以增強物件800之配合。在一些實施例中,襯墊拉伸元件832可在一或多個部分處(包含沿著腳背區域850之內側及外側)離開編織元件831,從而被曝露於鞋面820之外表面821上。 In some embodiments, the pad tensile element 832 can extend upwardly from the sole structure 110 toward the instep region 850 through the knit element 831 in a vertical direction. In an exemplary embodiment, a portion of the pad tensile element 832 can form a loop that acts as one of the lace apertures 853 and can then extend back down from the instep region 850 toward the sole structure 110 in a vertical direction. Additionally, when the article 800 is provided with a lace 154, the pad tensile element 832 can be pulled over the lace 154 The stretch is stretched and the pad tensile element 832 resists stretching in the upper 820. Again, the pad tensile element 832 assists in securing the upper 820 around the foot and operates in conjunction with the lace 154 to enhance the engagement of the item 800. In some embodiments, the pad tensile element 832 can exit the knit element 831 at one or more portions (including along the inside and outside of the instep region 850) to be exposed on the outer surface 821 of the upper 820.
如在上文參考編織組件130所描述,編織組件830可類似地包含由不同材料(包含用於形成上文描述之一紗線之合適材料之任一者)形成之紗線。在一些實施例中,編織組件830可進一步包含如上文描述之不可熔紗線及可熔紗線。當一可熔紗線被加熱且熔合至不可熔紗線時,此程序可具有硬化或僵化編織組件830之結構之效果。再者,藉由將(a)一不可熔紗線之一部分接合至一不可熔紗線之另一部分及/或(b)不可熔紗線與襯墊拉伸元件832接合至彼此具有緊固或鎖定不可熔紗線及襯墊拉伸元件832之對置位置之效果,藉此賦予抗拉伸性及硬度。即,不可熔紗線之部分在與可熔紗線熔合時無法相對於彼此滑動,藉此防止編織元件831歸因於編織結構之相對移動而翹曲或永久拉伸。另外,襯墊拉伸元件832無法相對於編織元件831滑動,藉此防止襯墊拉伸元件832之部分從編織元件831向外拉動。因此,編織組件830之區域可構形成有編織元件831內之可熔及不可熔紗線二者。 As described above with reference to knitted component 130, knitted component 830 can similarly comprise yarns formed from different materials, including any of the suitable materials used to form one of the yarns described above. In some embodiments, the braided component 830 can further comprise a non-fusible yarn and a fusible yarn as described above. This procedure may have the effect of hardening or rigidening the structure of the braided component 830 when a fusible yarn is heated and fused to the non-fusible yarn. Further, by (a) one portion of a non-fusible yarn is joined to another portion of a non-fusible yarn and/or (b) the non-fusible yarn is joined to the liner tensile member 832 to have a fastening or The effect of the incombustible position of the non-fusible yarn and the pad tensile member 832 is locked, thereby imparting stretch resistance and hardness. That is, portions of the non-fusible yarn are unable to slide relative to each other when fused to the fusible yarn, thereby preventing the knit element 831 from warping or permanently stretching due to relative movement of the woven structure. Additionally, the pad tensile element 832 cannot slide relative to the knit element 831, thereby preventing portions of the pad tensile element 832 from pulling outwardly from the knit element 831. Thus, the region of the braided component 830 can be configured with both fusible and non-fusible yarns within the braided component 831.
在一些實施例中,編織組件830可包含具有多個編織層之編織元件831。相關聯於編織組件830之編織層可部分同延且重疊編織元件831包含至少一個共同紗線或單絲線之部分,其在編織層之間來回穿過,從而將層接合及互鎖至彼此。使用此結構,編織層共同形成由單式編織構造形成之一單一編織織物。 In some embodiments, the braided component 830 can comprise a knit element 831 having a plurality of braid layers. The woven layer associated with the woven component 830 can be partially coextensive and the overlapping knit element 831 includes at least one portion of a common yarn or monofilament thread that passes back and forth between the woven layers to engage and interlock the layers to each other. Using this configuration, the woven layers collectively form a single woven fabric formed from a unitary woven construction.
在一例示性實施例中,編織元件831可包含在一或多個部分處彼此互鎖以形成編織組件830之至少兩個編織層。在一項實施例中,一第一編織層可形成編織組件830之一第一側之大部分,且一第二編織 層可形成編織組件830之一第二側之大部分。在一些實施例中,第一編織層可相關聯於外表面821之大部分,且第二編織層可相關聯於內表面822之大部分。在一例示性實施例中,襯墊拉伸元件832可延伸穿過第一編織層、第二編織層之部分及/或穿過編織元件831在第一編織層與第二編織層之間的部分。 In an exemplary embodiment, knit element 831 can include at least two braid layers that interlock with each other to form a braided component 830 at one or more portions. In one embodiment, a first woven layer can form a majority of the first side of one of the woven components 830, and a second weave The layer can form a majority of the second side of one of the braided components 830. In some embodiments, the first woven layer can be associated with a majority of the outer surface 821 and the second woven layer can be associated with a majority of the inner surface 822. In an exemplary embodiment, the pad tensile element 832 can extend through the first knit layer, a portion of the second knit layer, and/or through the knit element 831 between the first knit layer and the second knit layer. section.
在一些實施例中,編織組件830可包含一或多個邊界區帶,如在上文參考編織組件130所描述。邊界區帶界定其中紗線用於編織從一種紗線類型至另一紗線類型之編織組件830轉變之一部分之編織組件830之部分。舉例而言,編織組件830可在鞋面820上之一或多個邊界區帶處從一第一類型之紗線轉變成形成單絲區域860之一單絲線。另外,在其中編織組件830可進一步具有多個編織層之結構之實施例中,邊界區帶可在第一編織層及第二編織層之僅一者處轉變紗線類型,或可在第一編織層及第二編織層之二者處轉變紗線類型。即,邊界區帶可應用於編織元件831之個別編織層之層級處。 In some embodiments, the braided component 830 can include one or more boundary zones, as described above with reference to the braided component 130. The boundary zone defines a portion of the braided component 830 in which the yarn is used to weave a portion of the braided component 830 that transitions from one yarn type to another. For example, the braided component 830 can be converted from a first type of yarn to a monofilament line forming one of the monofilament areas 860 at one or more boundary zones on the upper 820. Additionally, in embodiments in which the braided component 830 can further have a plurality of braided layers, the boundary zone can transition the yarn type at only one of the first braided layer and the second braided layer, or can be first The yarn type is converted at both the woven layer and the second woven layer. That is, the boundary zone can be applied to the level of the individual braid layers of the knit element 831.
在一例示性實施例中,第一類型之紗線在相關聯於單絲區域860之各者之一或多個邊界區帶處從一天然或合成經撚纖維紗線轉變成單絲線。在此實施例中,內單絲部分862包含在朝向腳跟區14之內側18上沿著鞋面820之一部分安置之一後部內邊界900,其中形成內單絲部分862之一個編織層之至少一個單絲線轉變成用於形成編織組件830之其餘部分之編織元件831之至少一個編織層中之第一類型之紗線。內單絲部分862可進一步包含一頂部內邊界904及一底部內邊界906。在一項實施例中,頂部內邊界904沿著鞋面820之內側18定位且可與鞋領823及喉部開口840隔開第一距離D1,且底部內邊界906亦沿著鞋面820之內側18定位且可與鞋底結構110隔開第二距離D2(在上文描述)。 In an exemplary embodiment, the first type of yarn is converted from a natural or synthetic warp fiber yarn to a monofilament strand at one or more boundary zones associated with each of the monofilament regions 860. In this embodiment, the inner monofilament portion 862 includes a rear inner boundary 900 disposed along one of the uppers 18 toward the inner side 18 of the heel region 14, wherein at least one of the inner monofilament portions 862 is formed. The monofilament strands are converted into a first type of yarn in at least one of the knit layers of the knit element 831 used to form the remainder of the knit assembly 830. Inner monofilament portion 862 can further include a top inner boundary 904 and a bottom inner boundary 906. In one embodiment, the top inner boundary 904 is positioned along the inner side 18 of the upper 820 and may be spaced apart from the collar 823 and the throat opening 840 by a first distance D1, and the bottom inner boundary 906 is also along the upper 820 The medial side 18 is positioned and can be spaced apart from the sole structure 110 by a second distance D2 (described above).
在一些實施例中,前部內邊界902可在鞋面820上界定內單絲部 分862之一前部位置。在其中單絲區域860實質上連續之實施例中,前部內邊界902可簡單轉變成前足單絲部分864。然而,在其中各單絲區域860不連續之實施例中,前部內邊界902可界定從單絲線變回至用於形成編織元件831之兩個編織層之第一紗線類型之轉變。應理解,在此等不連續實施例中,前足單絲部分864將藉由其中紗線再次轉變回至用於形成至少一個編織層之單絲線之另一邊界區帶界定。 In some embodiments, the front inner boundary 902 can define an inner monofilament portion on the upper 820 One of the front positions of 862. In embodiments where the monofilament area 860 is substantially continuous, the front inner boundary 902 can be simply converted into the forefoot monofilament portion 864. However, in embodiments in which the monofilament regions 860 are discontinuous, the front inner boundary 902 can define a transition from the monofilament strand back to the first yarn type used to form the two braid layers of the knit element 831. It should be understood that in such discontinuous embodiments, the forefoot monofilament portion 864 will be defined by another boundary zone in which the yarn is again converted back to the monofilament strand used to form the at least one braid.
繼續沿著鞋面820,前足單絲部分864可包含一後部前足邊界908及一前部前足邊界909。在一項實施例中,後部前足邊界908可定位於腳背區域850前方且隔開第三距離D3且前部前足邊界909可定位於物件800之一腳趾端附近且隔開第四距離D4(在上文描述)。在此實施例中,外單絲部分866包含安置於朝向腳跟區14之鞋面820之外側16上之一後部外邊界910,形成外單絲部分866之一個編織層之至少一個單絲線轉變成用於形成編織組件830之其餘部分之編織元件831之至少一個編織層中之第一類型之紗線。外單絲部分866可進一步包含一頂部外邊界914及一底部外邊界916。在一項實施例中,頂部外邊界914定位成沿著鞋面820之外側16且可與鞋領823及喉部開口840隔開第五距離D5,且底部外邊界916亦可定位成沿著鞋面820之外側16且可與鞋底結構110隔開第六距離D6(在上文描述)。 Continuing along upper 820, forefoot monofilament portion 864 can include a rear forefoot boundary 908 and a front forefoot boundary 909. In one embodiment, the posterior forefoot boundary 908 can be positioned forward of the instep region 850 and spaced apart by a third distance D3 and the front forefoot boundary 909 can be positioned adjacent one of the toe ends of the article 800 and separated by a fourth distance D4 (at Described above). In this embodiment, the outer monofilament portion 866 includes a rear outer boundary 910 disposed on the outer side 16 of the upper 820 toward the heel region 14, and at least one monofilament strand forming a braid of the outer monofilament portion 866 is converted into A first type of yarn in at least one of the knit layers of the knit element 831 used to form the remainder of the knit assembly 830. The outer monofilament portion 866 can further include a top outer boundary 914 and a bottom outer boundary 916. In one embodiment, the top outer boundary 914 is positioned along the outer side 16 of the upper 820 and may be spaced a fifth distance D5 from the collar 823 and the throat opening 840, and the bottom outer boundary 916 may also be positioned along The outer side 16 of the upper 820 can be spaced apart from the sole structure 110 by a sixth distance D6 (described above).
在一些實施例中,一前部外邊界912可在鞋面820上界定外單絲部分866之一前部位置。類似於前部內邊界902,在其中單絲區域860實質上連續之實施例中,前部外邊界912可簡單轉變成前足單絲部分864。然而,在其中各單絲區域860不連續之實施例中,前部外邊界912可界定從單絲線變回至用於形成編織元件831之兩個編織層之第一紗線類型之轉變。應理解,在此等不連續實施例中,前足單絲部分864將藉由其中紗線再次轉變回至用於形成至少一個編織層之單絲線之另一邊界區帶界定。 In some embodiments, a front outer boundary 912 can define a front position on the upper 820 on one of the outer monofilament portions 866. Similar to the front inner boundary 902, in embodiments where the monofilament area 860 is substantially continuous, the front outer boundary 912 can be simply converted into the forefoot monofilament portion 864. However, in embodiments in which the monofilament regions 860 are discontinuous, the front outer boundary 912 can define a transition from the monofilament strand back to the first yarn type used to form the two braid layers of the knit element 831. It should be understood that in such discontinuous embodiments, the forefoot monofilament portion 864 will be defined by another boundary zone in which the yarn is again converted back to the monofilament strand used to form the at least one braid.
在一些實施例中,內單絲部分862及外單絲部分866在內側18及外側16之各者上可具有類似配置從而近似對稱,如參考上文之編織組件130所描述。在此等實施例中,第一距離D1及第五距離D5可約相等。類似地,第二距離D2及第六距離D6亦可約相等。然而,在其他實施例中,內側18及外側16之各者可具有在各側之間不同之單絲區域860。因此,在此等其他實施例中,第一距離D1及第五距離D5之各者可不同及/或第二距離D2及第六距離D6可不同,以將內單絲部分862及外單絲部分866進一步定位於更遠離於或更接近於鞋領823及/或鞋底結構110。仍在其他實施例中,僅內側18或外側16之一者可包含單絲區域860。應理解,可根據本文中描述之程序配置具有不同尺寸、形狀及/或位置之單絲區域860之其他結構。 In some embodiments, inner monofilament portion 862 and outer monofilament portion 866 can have similar configurations on each of inner side 18 and outer side 16 to approximate symmetry, as described with reference to knitted assembly 130 above. In these embodiments, the first distance D1 and the fifth distance D5 may be approximately equal. Similarly, the second distance D2 and the sixth distance D6 may also be approximately equal. However, in other embodiments, each of the inner side 18 and the outer side 16 can have a monofilament area 860 that differs between the sides. Therefore, in other embodiments, each of the first distance D1 and the fifth distance D5 may be different and/or the second distance D2 and the sixth distance D6 may be different to the inner monofilament portion 862 and the outer monofilament. Portion 866 is further positioned further away from or closer to collar 823 and/or sole structure 110. In still other embodiments, only one of the inner side 18 or the outer side 16 may comprise a monofilament area 860. It should be understood that other configurations of monofilament regions 860 having different sizes, shapes, and/or locations may be configured in accordance with the procedures described herein.
另外,在一例示性實施例中,編織組件830可進一步包含相關聯於腳跟單絲部分868之邊界區帶。在此實施例中,腳跟單絲部分868可包含一頂部腳跟邊界920及一底部腳跟邊界922。頂部腳跟邊界920可與鞋面820之腳跟區中之鞋領823及喉部開口840隔開,且底部腳跟邊界922可與鞋底結構110隔開。在一些實施例中,頂部腳跟邊界920可與鞋領823隔開實質上類似於頂部內邊界904及/或頂部外邊界914之一距離,且底部腳跟邊界922可與鞋底結構110隔開實質上類似於底部內邊界906及/或底部外邊界916之一距離。在其他實施例中,頂部腳跟邊界920及/或底部腳跟邊界922之間隔可變化。 Additionally, in an exemplary embodiment, the braided component 830 can further include a boundary zone associated with the heel monofilament portion 868. In this embodiment, the heel monofilament portion 868 can include a top heel boundary 920 and a bottom heel boundary 922. The top heel border 920 can be spaced from the collar 823 and throat opening 840 in the heel region of the upper 820, and the bottom heel border 922 can be spaced from the sole structure 110. In some embodiments, the top heel boundary 920 can be spaced from the collar 823 substantially similar to one of the top inner boundary 904 and/or the top outer boundary 914, and the bottom heel boundary 922 can be spaced from the sole structure 110 substantially Similar to one of the bottom inner boundary 906 and/or the bottom outer boundary 916. In other embodiments, the spacing of the top heel boundary 920 and/or the bottom heel boundary 922 can vary.
如在上文描述,在一些實施例中,編織組件830可包含具有不同結構之多種類型之單絲區域860。舉例而言,在一例示性實施例中,單絲區域860可包含由具有單絲線之兩個編織層形成之一第一類型之單絲區域及由具有一單絲線及天然或合成經撚纖維紗線之兩個編織層形成之一第二類型之單絲區域。在一例示性實施例中,可沿著外側16及內側18之各者安置第一類型之單絲區域860(即,具有單絲線之兩 個編織層)。在此實施例中,內單絲部分862及/或外單絲部分866可為第一類型之單絲區域。即,內單絲部分862及/或外單絲部分866可包含由一第一單絲線形成之一第一編織層及由一第二單絲線形成之一第二編織層。 As described above, in some embodiments, the braided component 830 can comprise a plurality of types of monofilament regions 860 having different configurations. For example, in an exemplary embodiment, monofilament region 860 can comprise a first type of monofilament region formed from two woven layers having monofilament strands and having a monofilament strand and natural or synthetic warp fiber The two braid layers of the yarn form one of the second type of monofilament regions. In an exemplary embodiment, a first type of monofilament area 860 can be placed along each of the outer side 16 and the inner side 18 (ie, having two monofilament lines) Woven layers). In this embodiment, inner monofilament portion 862 and/or outer monofilament portion 866 can be a monofilament region of the first type. That is, inner monofilament portion 862 and/or outer monofilament portion 866 can comprise a first woven layer formed from a first monofilament strand and a second woven layer formed from a second monofilament strand.
在一例示性實施例中,經結構設計以在一穿著者之一腳部之腳趾及腳跟安置於鞋面820內時抵靠腳趾及腳跟之編織組件830之部分可構形成第二類型之單絲區域860,即,具有由一單絲線形成之一個編織層及由天然或合成經撚纖維紗線形成之一個編織層之兩個編織層。在此實施例中,前足單絲部分864及/或腳跟單絲部分868可為第二類型之單絲區域。即,前足單絲部分864及/或腳跟單絲部分868可包含由一單絲線形成之一第一編織層及由天然或合成經撚纖維紗線形成之一第二編織層。 In an exemplary embodiment, the portion of the knit assembly 830 that abuts the toe and heel when structurally designed to place the toe and heel of one of the wearer's feet in the upper 820 can form a second type of single Silk region 860, i.e., two braid layers having a braid formed from a monofilament strand and a braid formed from natural or synthetic warp fiber yarn. In this embodiment, the forefoot monofilament portion 864 and/or the heel monofilament portion 868 can be a second type of monofilament region. That is, the forefoot monofilament portion 864 and/or the heel monofilament portion 868 can comprise a first woven layer formed from a monofilament strand and a second woven layer formed from a natural or synthetic warp conjugated fiber yarn.
在一例示性實施例中,前足單絲部分864及/或腳跟單絲部分868中由單絲線形成之第二編織層可相關聯於鞋面820之外表面821,且前足單絲部分864及/或腳跟單絲部分868中由天然或合成經撚纖維紗線形成之第二編織層可相關聯於鞋面820之內表面822。舉例而言,在一項實施例中,在前足單絲部分864及/或腳跟單絲部分868中,相關聯於內表面822之第二編織層可由一聚合物紗線製成。使用此結構,具有聚合物紗線之第二編織層可為一穿著者安置於鞋面820內之一腳部提供一光滑且柔軟內表面822。另外,第二編織層可為腳部提供保護以防前足單絲部分864及/或腳跟單絲部分868中由單絲線形成之第一編織層之尖銳邊緣或彎曲部分。 In an exemplary embodiment, the second woven layer formed by the monofilament strands in the forefoot monofilament portion 864 and/or the heel monofilament portion 868 can be associated with the outer surface 821 of the upper 820, and the forefoot monofilament portion 864 and The second woven layer formed from natural or synthetic warp-twisted fiber yarns in the heel monofilament portion 868 can be associated with the inner surface 822 of the upper 820. For example, in one embodiment, in the forefoot monofilament portion 864 and/or the heel monofilament portion 868, the second woven layer associated with the inner surface 822 can be made from a polymer yarn. Using this configuration, the second woven layer having the polymeric yarns provides a smooth and soft inner surface 822 for a foot disposed on one of the uppers 820 by a wearer. Additionally, the second woven layer can provide protection to the foot from sharp edges or curved portions of the first woven layer formed by the monofilament strands in the forefoot monofilament portion 864 and/or the heel monofilament portion 868.
在另一實施例中,在前足單絲部分864及/或腳跟單絲部分868中,相關聯於內表面822之第二編織層可由聚合物紗線及可熔紗線之一組合製成。使用此結構,相關聯於第二編織層之可熔紗線部分可經結構設計以在被加熱時協助將前足單絲部分864及/或腳跟單絲部分 868設置於編織組件830內之位置中(如在上文描述)。 In another embodiment, in the forefoot monofilament portion 864 and/or the heel monofilament portion 868, the second woven layer associated with the inner surface 822 can be made from a combination of one of a polymeric yarn and a fusible yarn. Using this configuration, the portion of the fusible yarn associated with the second woven layer can be structurally designed to assist in the placement of the forefoot monofilament portion 864 and/or the heel monofilament portion when heated. 868 is disposed in a position within the braided component 830 (as described above).
藉由將具有不同類型之單絲區域860之編織組件830併入至用於物件800之鞋面820中,單絲區域860可提供強度、抗拉伸性、減小重量及/或協助氣流穿過鞋面820以為物件800之內部提供透氣性(如在上文描述)。另外,藉由變化單絲區域860之兩個編織層結構,鞋面820可在提供此等特徵的同時亦為一穿著者之一腳部維持舒適性。參考圖12A至圖12C,圖解說明具有併入具有不同類型之單絲區域860之編織組件830之鞋面820之物件800之橫截面視圖。 By incorporating a braided component 830 having different types of monofilament areas 860 into the upper 820 for article 800, the monofilament area 860 can provide strength, stretch resistance, weight reduction, and/or assist in airflow. The upper 820 is passed to provide breathability to the interior of the article 800 (as described above). Additionally, by varying the two woven layer configurations of the monofilament area 860, the upper 820 can provide comfort to one of the wearer's feet while providing such features. Referring to Figures 12A-12C, a cross-sectional view of an article 800 having an upper 820 incorporating a braided component 830 having different types of monofilament regions 860 is illustrated.
圖12A展示橫跨鞋面820呈現之前足區10之一橫截面視圖。在此實施例中,前足單絲部分864安置成沿著鞋面820之一頂部。在一例示性實施例中,前足單絲部分864可為上文描述之第二類型之一單絲區域860。在此實施例中,前足單絲部分864包含兩個編織層,包含相關聯於編織組件830之外表面821之由一單絲線形成之一第一編織層及相關聯於內表面822之由一天然或合成經撚纖維紗線形成之一第二編織層。在一些實施例中,前足單絲部分864之第二編織層可由相同於形成編織組件830之編織元件831之其餘部分之紗線製成。 FIG. 12A shows a cross-sectional view of one of the previous foot regions 10 presented across the upper 820. In this embodiment, the forefoot monofilament portion 864 is disposed along the top of one of the uppers 820. In an exemplary embodiment, the forefoot monofilament portion 864 can be one of the second types of monofilament regions 860 described above. In this embodiment, the forefoot monofilament portion 864 includes two woven layers comprising a first woven layer formed by a monofilament line associated with the outer surface 821 of the woven component 830 and associated with the inner surface 822.

在一例示性實施例中,隨著襯墊拉伸元件832延伸穿過編織元件831,第二緯圈1602及第三緯圈1604可相對應於襯墊拉伸元件832。使用此結構,襯墊拉伸元件832可延伸穿過內單絲部分862中之單絲線1400,且繼續延伸穿過編織元件831之其餘部分中之天然或合成經撚纖維紗線1402。因此,隨著襯墊拉伸元件832延伸穿過編織元件831在內單絲部分862外之其餘部分,天然或合成經撚纖維紗線1402可實質上圍繞襯墊拉伸元件832之部分。使用此結構,在單絲區域860外從編織組件830之外表面821上觀察時可隱藏襯墊拉伸元件832。 In an exemplary embodiment, as the pad tensile element 832 extends through the knit element 831, the second and second latitudes 1602 and 1604 may correspond to the pad tensile element 832. Using this configuration, the pad tensile element 832 can extend through the monofilament strand 1400 in the inner monofilament portion 862 and continue to extend through the natural or synthetic warp-twist fiber yarn 1402 in the remainder of the knit element 831. Thus, as the pad tensile element 832 extends through the remainder of the knit element 831 beyond the monofilament portion 862, the natural or synthetic warp fiber yarn 1402 can substantially surround a portion of the pad tensile element 832. With this configuration, the pad tensile element 832 can be hidden when viewed from the outer surface 821 of the braided component 830 outside of the monofilament area 860.
在其他實施例中,編織組件830包含一單絲線之一或多個緯圈可順著延伸穿過編織元件831超過單絲區域860之其餘部分。現參考圖16B,圖解說明編織組件830包含內單絲部分862之一部分之一選用之結構。如同圖16A,襯墊拉伸元件832延伸穿過編織元件831及內單絲部分862。然而,在此實施例中,上文描述之由一單絲線(例如,單絲線1400)形成之一或多個緯圈可連同襯墊拉伸元件832進一步延伸穿過內單絲部分862外之編織元件831。 In other embodiments, the braided component 830 includes one or more weft loops that can extend along the braided component 831 beyond the remainder of the monofilament region 860. Referring now to Figure 16B, the braid assembly 830 is illustrated as including one of the portions of one of the inner monofilament portions 862. As with Figure 16A, pad tensile element 832 extends through knit element 831 and inner monofilament portion 862. However, in this embodiment, one or more of the latitudes formed by a monofilament thread (e.g., monofilament strand 1400) as described above may extend further through the inner monofilament portion 862 along with the liner tensile element 832. Knit element 831.

A portion of the natural or synthetic warp fiber yarn 1402, as described above. As shown in the enlarged view of FIG. 16B, one of the first latitudes 1600 of the woven component 830 and the fourth latitude 1606 of the woven component 830 are converted from the monofilament line 1400 forming the inner monofilament portion 862 at the bottom inner boundary 906 to Natural or synthetic warp fiber yarn 1402. In one embodiment, one of the second latitude 1602 and the third latitude 1604 of the woven component 830 does not transition from the monofilament strand 1400 to the natural or synthetic warp fiber yarn 1402 or another different at the bottom inner boundary 906. Type of yarn. Alternatively, the second latitude ring 1602 and the third latitude ring 1604 continue to be formed by the same monofilament strand 1400 forming the inner monofilament portion 862 in a substantially continuous manner.
在此實施例中,隨著襯墊拉伸元件832延伸穿過編織元件831,使用單絲線1400編織之第二緯圈1602及第三緯圈1604可相對應於襯墊拉伸元件832。使用此結構,襯墊拉伸元件832可延伸穿過內單絲部分862中之單絲線1400,以及穿過編織元件831之其餘部分。因此,隨著襯墊拉伸元件832延伸穿過編織元件831在內單絲部分862外之其餘部分,單絲線1400可實質上圍繞襯墊拉伸元件832之部分。在其他實施例中,單絲線之一或多個緯圈可在各單絲區域860(包含內單絲部分862、前足單絲部分864、外單絲部分866及/或腳跟單絲部分868)外延伸以遵循及相對應於貫穿編織組件830之襯墊拉伸元件832之路徑。藉由使用單絲線1400圍封或圍繞襯墊拉伸元件832,額外強度及支撐可經提供至襯墊拉伸元件832。 In this embodiment, as the pad tensile element 832 extends through the knit element 831, the second latitude 1602 and the third latitude 1604 woven using the monofilament strand 1400 may correspond to the pad tensile element 832. Using this configuration, the pad tensile element 832 can extend through the monofilament strand 1400 in the inner monofilament portion 862 and through the remainder of the knit element 831. Thus, as the pad tensile element 832 extends through the knit element 831 to the remainder of the inner monofilament portion 862, the monofilament strand 1400 can substantially surround a portion of the pad tensile element 832. In other embodiments, one or more of the monofilament strands may be in each monofilament area 860 (including inner monofilament portion 862, forefoot monofilament portion 864, outer monofilament portion 866, and/or heel monofilament portion 868). The outer extension extends to correspond to and corresponds to the path of the liner tensile element 832 through the braided component 830. Additional strength and support may be provided to the pad tensile element 832 by enclosing or surrounding the pad tensile element 832 using the monofilament strand 1400.
