Description

Personalized insole capable of rapid prototyping and its manufacturing method

The present invention relates to an insole structure, and in particular, to a personalized insole that can be quickly formed according to the three-dimensional configuration of an individual's sole and is equipped with a negative pressure auxiliary element.

Press, when people wear shoes, they will place insoles inside the shoes. The shock-absorbing and cushioning effects of the insoles can alleviate the pain in the soles of the feet and other diseases caused by standing or walking for a long time, and at the same time, it can also provide better comfort to the feet. feel. Generally speaking, under normal circumstances, the sole of the foot should have a significantly higher arch (i.e., the concave arc-shaped part on the inside of the foot), and the talus and calcaneus should be in the same straight line and vertical on the ground. However, due to congenital or acquired relationships, the three-dimensional configuration of the soles of each person's feet will be different. For example, some people who are born with flat feet will have lower arches or even no arches; or, when When young children stand too early or have incorrect postures for a long time, they can easily develop Pronation of the foot.

In the production of current insoles, they are usually mass-produced with the same shape and are not adapted to the sole conditions of each person. Therefore, when users purchase insoles, they often choose softer insoles. In this way, when the user steps on the aforementioned insoles, When wearing an insole, the insole will have a greater amount of deformation and give people a more comfortable feeling. However, softer insoles are often less supportive. Therefore, if used for a long time, they can easily cause abnormal tightness of the plantar muscles. For people with flat feet or high arches, it will be more likely to aggravate the problem. Poor fascial conditions in the lower limbs. It can be seen from this that when choosing insoles, it is better to choose insoles that are supportive of the soles of the feet.

As mentioned above, due to the differences in the three-dimensional configuration of the soles of each person's feet, mass-produced insoles obviously cannot meet everyone's needs. However, currently customized insoles are usually used for correction, and their production Not only does it take several weeks, it is also expensive, especially the production process is cumbersome and requires a lot of specialized equipment and tools. Therefore, it is obviously not practical for the general public. In view of this, the inventor has designed a corrective insole that can be quickly customized. This is briefly described below. Please refer to Figure 1A. The corrective insole 10 includes an inner covering layer 11, a plurality of particles 12 and An outer cladding layer 13, wherein the inner cladding layer 11 itself is made of breathable material and filled with the particles 12. Afterwards, the inner cladding layer 11 together with the particles 12 can be placed together In the air-impermeable outer covering layer 13 , an air channel 131 is provided on the outer covering layer 13 , and the air channel 131 connects the inside and outside of the outer covering layer 13 .

Please refer to Figure 1A again. In terms of production, the orthopedic insole 10 can first be placed in the shaping groove 151 of a support fixture 15 (such as a shoe mold table), and then a professional (such as a rehabilitation practitioner) can ) can assist the user to adjust the foot position so that the foot can step on the top surface of the corrective insole 10 in a correct posture (that is, in compliance with the posture required for correction), and at the same time, the particles 12 will also be shaped ( Shaping) into the expected correction shape; after completing the aforementioned shaping process, professionals can connect the air channel with specialized vacuum equipment (such as vacuum pumps, valves, vacuum gauges, pipe fittings, joints, etc.), and Perform a vacuuming operation on the orthotic insole 10 so that the particles 12 are set in a state where they are in close contact with each other and cannot continue to move, and then the air channel 131 is hermetically sealed to form the corrective insole 10 (as shown in 1B as shown in the figure).

Although the above-mentioned orthotic insole 10 conceived by the inventor has a very short personalized production time (less than 10 minutes) and a much lower price than traditional orthotic insoles, it is still not enough to be widely used by the general public. The main reason is that the corrective insole 10 not only requires specialized vacuuming and shaping auxiliary equipment (such as shoe mold table, vibration table, sealing machine, etc.), but also requires professional assistance, which is beyond the capabilities of ordinary users. Provided, users in need can only purchase them from a few specialized places, such as foot correction clinics or insole specialty stores. In addition, in order for the corrective insole 10 to have good correction ability, a large number of particles 12 need to be placed therein so that it can be shaped into the shape required for correction. This situation also increases the overall production cost of the corrective insole 10 Still higher than ordinary insoles.

For the general public, the insoles they use do not necessarily need to be severe in nature, but are mainly for comfort and daily health care. Therefore, in the aforementioned problems (such as the need for specialized equipment, specialty stores/places) , professional services and higher costs), the orthotic insole 10 will significantly reduce the purchase and use willingness of the general public. Therefore, how to effectively solve the aforementioned problems to provide a more suitable product for the general public becomes the subject of the present invention. An important topic.

In view of the fact that conventional insoles still have many shortcomings, the inventor relied on years of practical experience and after many studies, attempts and implementations, finally designed a personalized insole that can be quickly formed and its The preparation method is expected to effectively solve the aforementioned problems.

One object of the present invention is to provide a personalized insole that can be quickly formed, which can be placed in a shoe or become a part of the shoe structure for the user's soles to step on. The personalized insole includes an outer shell. Covering layer, a plurality of particles, at least one opening and closing element and at least one negative pressure auxiliary element, wherein the outer covering layer is made of an airtight structure, and the planar configuration of the outer covering layer can be consistent with the sole of the foot. Matching the overall or partial planar configuration, it is provided with an air channel that can connect the inside and outside of the outer cladding layer. At least a local area of the top surface of the outer cladding layer is made of elastic or flexible non-woven fabrics. Made of breathable materials or structures; the opening and closing element can make the air channel exhaust in one direction, or can switch the air channel between a two-way conductive state and a two-way non-conductive state; such particles Can be filled directly or indirectly into the outer cladding layer, so that the outer cladding layer presents a predetermined thickness, and the particles can move within the outer cladding layer; each negative pressure auxiliary element is located on the outer cladding layer There is at least one air-containing space in the outer cladding. When it is pressed by external forces, the air in it will be discharged. Moreover, when the external force is removed, its own restoring force will also force it to Absorb external air; when the whole or part of the sole of the foot is stepped on the outer covering layer, the particles can complete the shaping (i.e., forming) by displacing with the whole or part of the three-dimensional configuration of the sole of the foot, and The air in the outer covering layer will be discharged out of the outer covering layer through the air channel due to the pressure exerted by the sole of the foot as a whole or locally. The negative pressure auxiliary component will also be affected by the aforementioned pressure and reduce its occupied volume. The air inside will also be discharged to the outside of the outer covering through the air channel. When the air channel is airtightly sealed and the pressure exerted by the sole of the foot is removed, the negative pressure auxiliary element will be discharged due to its own It expands with restoring force and absorbs the residual air between the particles to generate negative pressure, so that the particles are shaped in a state that is in close contact with each other and is not easily displaced to obtain the personalized insole. In this way, the user does not need to By using any additional specialized equipment, you can easily and quickly create personalized insoles that fit the three-dimensional configuration of your feet.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a method for manufacturing a personalized insole that can be quickly formed. The personalized insole can be placed in a shoe for the user's soles to step on. The manufacturing method first performs a step. The filling operation is to arrange at least one opening and closing element and at least one negative pressure auxiliary element at a predetermined position of an outer covering layer according to the design of the personalized insole, and to fill a plurality of particles into the outer covering layer. In the coating, so that the outer coating has a predetermined thickness and the particles can move within the outer coating. After the aforementioned placement and filling work is completed, the filling port is airtightly sealed to Complete the filling operation; wherein, the outer covering layer has an airtight structure, its planar configuration can match the overall or partial planar configuration of the sole of the foot, and it is provided with an air channel that can communicate with the outer covering layer. inside and outside the layer; the opening and closing element can make the air channel exhaust in one direction, or can convert the air channel into a two-way conduction state and a two-way non-conduction state; the negative pressure auxiliary element has a built-in There is at least one air-containing space. When it is under the pressure of external force, the air in it will be discharged. Moreover, when the external force is removed, its own recovery force will also force it to absorb external air; then, perform a forming The operation enables the particles to complete shaping (i.e., forming) by displacing along with the overall or partial three-dimensional configuration of the sole of the foot while the entire or part of the sole of the foot is stepping on the outer covering layer, and the The air in the outer covering layer will be discharged to the outside of the outer covering layer through the air channel due to the pressure exerted by the sole of the foot as a whole or locally. The negative pressure auxiliary component will also be affected by the aforementioned pressure and reduce its occupied volume. The air inside will also be discharged to the outside of the outer cladding through the air channel; and a shaping operation is performed to seal the air channel so that the air outside the outer cladding cannot flow into the outer cladding. Within the covering, and when the pressure exerted by the sole of the foot is removed, the negative pressure auxiliary element will expand due to its own restoring force and absorb the residual air between the particles to generate negative pressure, causing the particles to The personalized insoles are formed so as to be in close contact with each other and not easily displaced.

In addition, the following embodiments will further describe the relevant technical content of the present invention in detail, but the disclosed content is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

It should be understood that, although the terms first, second, etc. may be used herein to describe various elements or signals, these elements should not be limited by these terms. These terms are primarily used to distinguish one element from another element. In addition, the directional terms mentioned in the embodiments, such as "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", etc., are only for reference to the directions in the drawings. Therefore, the directional terms used are illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of the invention. In addition, the term "or" as used herein shall include any one or combination of more of the associated listed items, as the case may be.

The present invention is a personalized insole that can be quickly formed and a manufacturing method thereof. The main purpose of the personalized insole is to be used as a generally adaptable, pressure-relieving insole. It does not require the use of additional special auxiliary tools (such as specialized (vacuum equipment, etc.), and the user can easily make a personalized insole that matches the three-dimensional configuration of the sole of his or her own foot. However, the personalized insole of the present invention does not exclude its use as a correction. Please refer to Figure 2. In a first embodiment, the personalized insole 2 includes an outer covering layer 21, a plurality of particles 22, at least one negative pressure auxiliary element 23 and at least one opening and closing element 24, wherein , the outer covering layer 21 is made of airtight material or airtight structure, and its periphery is airtightly sealed to form a first accommodation space therein. In addition, the planar configuration of the outer covering layer 21 can be matched with the sole of the foot. The overall planar configuration matches (as shown in Figure 3A), and at least a partial area of the top surface is made of an elastic or flexible air-impermeable material or structure, so that it can be formed in the process described later. It conforms to the planar configuration of the sole of the foot, but is not limited to this. In other embodiments of the present invention, the planar configuration of the outer covering layer 21 can also be consistent with the part of the sole of the foot (such as: corresponding to the toe bones, midfoot bones or The local part of the heel bone) matches the plane configuration, and the combination is stated first.

Please refer to Figure 2 again. The outer cladding layer 21 can be provided with at least one air channel 211. The air channel 211 connects the inside and outside of the outer cladding layer 21 so that the air in the first accommodation space can pass through the outer cladding layer 21. The air channel 211 flows out to the outside of the outer cladding layer 21 . In addition, in the first embodiment, the particles 22 can be directly filled into the outer coating layer 21 so that the outer coating layer 21 exhibits a predetermined thickness and is maintained in a soft state, and, The particles 22 can move within the outer coating 21 . In addition, the personalized insole 2 is also provided with an opening and closing element 24. The opening and closing element 24 is airtightly installed on the outer covering layer 21 at a position corresponding to the air channel 211. For example, it can be provided inside the air channel 211. , or be provided inside and/or outside the outer cladding layer 21 . In the first embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2 , the opening and closing element 24 is located inside the outer cladding layer 21 . In addition, the opening and closing element 24 can make the air channel 211 discharge outward in one direction, or can switch the air channel 211 between a bidirectional conductive state and a bidirectional non-conductive state. In addition, in order to prevent the particles 22 from flowing out of the outer coating 21 through the air channel 211, the opening and closing element 24 can also add a blocking structure (such as a filter) to simultaneously block the particles. 22 flows out through the air channel 211.

Furthermore, please refer to Figures 2 and 3A. In order to avoid overly complicating the diagram, the particles 22 are omitted in Figure 3A. The negative pressure auxiliary element 23 can be located in the outer cladding layer 21, and its position and number can be determined according to actual needs. As shown in Figure 3A, there can be only a single negative pressure auxiliary element 23; or, as shown in Figure 3B As shown in the figure, there can be a plurality of negative pressure auxiliary elements 23; in addition, the negative pressure auxiliary element 23 can generally be located adjacent to the bottom surface of the outer cladding layer 21, and the particles 22 can be stacked on the top surface. The characteristic of the negative pressure auxiliary element 23 is that when it is deformed (becomes smaller) by external force, it will generate a restoring force, and when the external pressure disappears, it can restore itself to its original state. In addition, the negative pressure auxiliary element 23 can return to its original state. The negative pressure auxiliary element 23 itself has at least one air-containing space 26. When it is deformed (reduced) by external force, the air in the air-containing space 26 will be discharged. On the contrary, when the external force disappears, , its own restoring force will also force it to absorb external air into each air-containing space 26. For example, in the first embodiment, the negative pressure auxiliary element 23 can be an open porous elastic material (such as foam), and the collective holes or pores thereon are the air-holding spaces 26 . The term "open" mentioned above means that the air-containing space 26 is directly connected to the external space of the negative pressure auxiliary component 23. The "open" described in subsequent embodiments is also the same as the previous definition.

Referring back to Figures 2 and 3A, when the user's sole (whole or partially) steps on or exerts pressure on the top surface of the outer covering layer 21, the particles 22 displace along with the three-dimensional configuration of the sole of the foot. The shaping (that is, forming) is completed, and the air in the outer covering layer 21 will be discharged to the outside of the outer covering layer 21 through the air channel 211 due to the pressure exerted by the sole of the foot; and the negative pressure The auxiliary element 23 will also be affected by the aforementioned pressure to reduce its occupied volume, and the air in its air-containing space 26 will also be discharged from the negative pressure auxiliary element 23 and then discharged to the outer covering layer 21 through the air channel 211 outside. In addition, when the user seals the air channel 211 through the opening and closing element 24, so that air cannot flow into the outer covering layer 21 from the atmospheric side, and removes the pressure exerted by the sole of the foot, the negative pressure auxiliary element 23 will expand due to its own restoring force, and will absorb a relatively large proportion of the residual air between the particles 22 to form a negative pressure within the outer coating 21, so that the particles 22 are shaped in close contact with each other. In order to obtain the personalized insole 2 (as shown in Figure 4), it is in a reliable and non-displaceable state.

For the user, the molding of the personalized insole 2 mainly needs to go through two stages: "forming" and "setting". In the "forming" stage, the user can place the sole of the foot on the outer covering layer 21 and apply pressure. This stage only allows the air in the outer covering layer 21 to be discharged through the air channel 211 in one direction. Outside the outer covering layer 21; in the "setting" stage, the user's soles will leave the outer covering layer 21 to remove the pressure exerted by them. At this stage, no external contact with the outer covering layer 21 is allowed. The air flows in one direction through the air channel 211 to the inside of the outer cladding layer 21 . As mentioned above, the opening and closing element 24 needs to meet one of the following two conditions:

(1) Regardless of the "forming" stage or the "setting" stage, the air channel 211 only vents outward in one direction; according to the above conditions, the opening and closing element 24 can be achieved by using a check valve, that is, Connect a check valve with only one direction of outward exhaust to the air channel 211 in an airtight manner (e.g. located inside or outside the air channel 211); or

(2) In the "forming" stage, the air channel 211 is in a bidirectional conductive state, and in the "setting" stage, the air channel 211 is converted into a bidirectional non-conductive state. According to the above conditions, the opening and closing element 24 can be a plug, airtight tape, valve or other means; therefore, in the "forming" stage, the air channel 211 is in a bidirectional state, and pressure is exerted on the sole of the foot to complete the shaping After the air is exhausted and the sole of the foot continues to exert pressure, use a plug or airtight tape or other components to manually block or stick the air channel 211, and then remove the sole of the foot to apply pressure to complete the "setting" stage.

According to the needs of use, the design of the negative pressure auxiliary component 23 can have diverse considerations and can achieve different effects:

(1) As shown in Figures 3A and 3B, the position covered or placed by the negative pressure auxiliary element 23 can be: (1-1) covering the entire insole; (1-2) covering the forefoot area; (1- 3) Cover the arch area; (1-4) Cover the heel area; or (1-5) A combination of two or more of the above.

(2) Depending on the material and type of the negative pressure auxiliary component 23, the following styles can be roughly distinguished:

(2-1) Open porous elastic materials, such as foam, sponge, etc., and can be a single whole or pieced together from multiple independent components; the aforementioned "porous" means that the material itself has There are many holes or voids, and these holes or voids collectively can be regarded as the gas-holding space 26;

(2-2) Open hollow elastomers include: open hollow elastic round tubes, open hollow flat elastomers, open hollow spherical elastomers and open hollow elastic particles, etc.; among them, the open hollow elastomers Elastic particles refer to the particles that are filled into the outer coating and have a hollow interior, and the hollow interior is directly connected to the outside of the particles. Therefore, in addition to having the function of the particles themselves, they can also serve as The negative pressure auxiliary component is used;

(2-3) The double check valve structure is a non-open hollow elastomer, and is provided with a first outlet and a second outlet that are connected from the hollow interior to the exterior, and are airtightly connected. A first check valve and a second check valve; the first check valve is designed so that the air outside the negative pressure auxiliary component can only flow into the hollow interior (i.e., the air holding space 26) in one direction. , and the second check valve allows the air inside the hollow (i.e., the air-containing space 26) to flow out to the outside of the negative pressure auxiliary component only in one direction.

(3) In addition, please refer to Figure 5 (which is the A-A heel cross-section of the molded insole in Figure 3B). When the user walks, the upper half HU of the personalized insole 2 The particles 22 are shaped in a state of close contact with each other and are not easily displaced due to the influence of negative pressure, so their overall hardness is relatively high. At the same time, the negative pressure auxiliary element 23 of the lower half HD of the personalized insole 2 can itself The volume changes with external force, so it has buffering ability. Therefore, the personalized insole 2, where the negative pressure auxiliary element 23 is provided, can not only provide sole support but also has buffering properties;

(4) Viewed from the longitudinal section of the personalized insole 2, as shown in Figure 4, the negative pressure auxiliary element 23 will occupy part of the volume, so the number of particles 22 used can be greatly reduced to reduce the cost of the personalized insole 2. production cost while still being able to be molded into a three-dimensional configuration of the foot suitable for the user.

In the second embodiment of the present invention, the negative pressure auxiliary component used is not limited to block-shaped foam, but can be an open hollow elastomer. Here, a strip-shaped hollow elastic tube is used to represent the illustration, such as As shown in the plurality of hollow elastic tube bodies (negative pressure auxiliary element 33) in the upper part of Figure 6, the open hollow elastic tube body can also be made of breathable materials. Therefore, in addition to the large air capacity inside the tube itself, In addition to the space 36, a plurality of small air-containing spaces (i.e., holes and pores) in the tube wall can also be added; the air discharged by the negative pressure auxiliary element 33 can finally pass through the air channel 211 (such as the first 6), and in the second embodiment, the opening and closing element 24 is an airtight tape and can be located outside the outer covering layer 21.

Please refer to Figure 6 again. In this second embodiment, a negative pressure auxiliary element 43 with a double check valve structure (such as the oblate non-open hollow elastomer at the bottom of Figure 6) is used. It is made of airtight material or structure, and is airtightly connected to a first check valve 431 and a second check valve 432, wherein the first check valve 431 can only enable the negative pressure auxiliary component 43 to External air flows into its hollow interior (i.e., the air-containing space 46), as shown in the direction of the arrow above the first check valve 431 in Figure 6; the second check valve 432 can only make the negative pressure auxiliary component 43 hollow. The air in the interior (i.e., the air-containing space 46) flows out to the outside, as shown in the direction of the arrow below the second check valve 432 in Figure 6, and is airtightly connected with the air channel 211; when the outer covering layer 21 is sufficiently When the heel is repeatedly stepped on, squeezed and released by external force, the air inside it can sequentially flow out to the outer shell through the first check valve 431, the air containing space 46, the second check valve 432 and the air channel 211. outside the cladding 21. It is particularly mentioned here that when the user continuously steps on the negative pressure auxiliary element 43 , a larger negative pressure can be formed in the outer covering layer 21 . The first check valve 431 and the second check valve 432 only allow one-way flow of air. Therefore, as long as they can achieve the aforementioned structure of only one-way flow of air, for example, a duckbill valve, a cut-off valve, Air check valves, etc., all belong to the first check valve 431 and the second check valve 432 in the present invention.

Please refer to Figure 7A. In the third embodiment of the present invention, the particles 22 can be first filled into the second containing space of an inner coating layer 25, wherein the inner coating layer 25 is made of It is made of breathable material (such as elastic or flexible breathable fabric or breathable plastic film), and its planar configuration can match the overall or partial planar configuration of the sole of the foot, so that the inner covering layer 25 presents a The predetermined thickness is to maintain a soft state, and the particles 22 can move within the inner coating layer 25, and their particle diameter will be larger than the breathable pore diameter of the inner coating layer 25, so that the particles 22 will not be exposed to external forces. Press down to separate from the inner cladding layer 25 . In addition, the periphery of the inner coating layer 25 can be sealed, and it can be placed into the outer coating layer 21 together with the particles 22 inside, that is, the particles 22 are indirectly placed. in the outer cladding layer 21 . In addition, the negative pressure auxiliary element 23 and the opening and closing element 24 can be located outside the inner cladding layer 25. In this way, during the production process, the negative pressure auxiliary element 23, the opening and closing element 24 and the inner cladding layer 25 can be connected. By placing them respectively in the outer covering layer 21, not only the procedure is relatively simple, but also the negative pressure auxiliary element 23 and the opening and closing element 24 can be positioned at the expected position. However, in other embodiments of the present invention, the negative pressure auxiliary element 23 can also be installed in the inner coating layer 25 together with the particles 22, which will be described first.

Continuing with the above, please refer to Figure 7B. When the user's sole steps on the top surface of the outer covering layer 21, the particles 22 in the inner covering layer 25 follow the three-dimensional structure of the sole of the foot. The shape displacement completes the shaping, and the air in the inner covering layer 25 will be discharged to the inner covering layer 25 due to the pressure exerted by the sole of the foot; in addition, the negative pressure auxiliary element 23 will also Air will be discharged. The air discharged from the inner cladding layer 25 and the negative pressure auxiliary element 23 together with the air originally in the outer cladding layer 21 is discharged to the outer cladding layer 21 through the air channel 211. outside. In addition, the air channel 211 is hermetically sealed, and when the outer covering layer 21 is no longer stressed (that is, no longer stepped on), the restoring force of the negative pressure auxiliary element 23 will force it to absorb external air. The shaped particles 22 located in the inner covering layer 25 are shaped in a state of close contact with each other and are not easily displaced due to the influence of negative pressure, thereby obtaining the personalized insole 2 .

In addition, please refer to Figure 7C. In order to enable the personalized insole 2 to maintain its shape after being shaped for a long time, it can also be shaped after the shape is completed (that is, the particles 22 are shaped so that they are in close contact with each other and are not easily displacement state) and the air channel 211 has been hermetically sealed, the heating operation is performed. Among them, the particles 22 can be made of thermoplastic elastomer materials (such as TPU, TPEE, TPS, TPR, SEBS, etc.) with low melting point or low initial melting temperature (such as 60°C~85°C), and their melting point or The initial melting temperature will be lower than other components of the personalized insole 2 (such as outer covering layer 21, negative pressure auxiliary component 23..., etc.), which means that when the particles 22 are in a molten state, the personalized insole 2 Other components can also maintain their integrity without melting. In addition, the heating operation can be performed with hot boiling water, an oven, a hair dryer or a microwave oven, and does not require the use of professional heating equipment, thereby improving the convenience of personal use. During the heating operation, at least the surface of the particles 22 will be in a molten state, so that the adjacent particles 22 can be welded together to form a personalized insole 2 with a long life. In this way, if the outer covering layer 21 or the inner covering layer 25 is damaged under long-term use, the personalized insole 2 can still remain on the original sole of the foot because the particles 22 have been bonded together. Three-dimensional configuration to effectively extend the service life of the personalized insole 2.

In addition to making the particles 22 from thermoplastic elastomer materials, in other embodiments of the present invention, the particles 22 can also be evenly mixed with a plurality of bonding materials 27 so that the bonding materials 27 can evenly adhere to each of the bonding materials 27 . On the surface of the particle 22 (as shown in Figure 8), the joining material 27 can be in the form of powder, liquid paste, etc., and it includes an adhesive material (Binder) (such as TPU hot melt adhesive, EVA hot melt adhesive) ...etc.) 271 and/or adsorbent (Absorbent) (such as infrared absorbing material, electromagnetic wave absorbing material, etc.) 273. The adhesive material 271 and adsorbent material 273 can be attached to the surface of the particle 22 as shown in Figure 8, Or completely coat the surface of the particles 22 . In addition, the melting point of the joining material 27 will be lower than the melting point of other components of the personalized insole 2 (such as: particles 22, outer covering layer 21, negative pressure auxiliary component 23..., etc.), and the joining material 27 and these components The particles 22 can be directly or indirectly filled into the outer coating 21 . When the personalized insole 2 also includes an inner covering layer 25, the particle size of the joining materials 27 can be larger than the breathable pore size of the inner covering layer 25, so that the joining materials 27 can only be used in the inner covering layer 25. Displacement within 25. After the heating operation, the joining materials 27 can be melted to fuse the adjacent particles 22 into one body, thereby solidifying the personalized insole 2 with a long service life.

It is worth mentioning here that the personalized insole 2 can be reshaped when no heating operation is performed. The user only needs to open the air channel 211 to allow outside air to enter the outer covering layer 21 . In addition, the number of air channels 211 of the present invention is not limited to only one, and can also be a plurality (as shown in Figure 6). When one of the air channels 211 is occupied (as in the second embodiment, the air channel 211 at the bottom (occupied by the second check valve 432), the other air channel 211 can be opened to allow outside air to enter the outer cladding 21. When necessary, the air channel 211 can also be used to fill or remove particles 22 .

The manufacturing process of the personalized insole 2 of the present invention is now explained. Please refer to Figures 2 and 9. In step (501), a filling operation is performed. According to the design of the personalized insole 2, the The opening and closing element 24 and the negative pressure auxiliary element 23 are arranged at a predetermined position of the outer coating 21, and the particles 22 are directly or indirectly filled into the outer coating 21 (for example, the particles 22 can be first After being filled into the inner coating layer 25, the inner coating layer 25 is installed into the outer coating layer 21), so that the outer coating layer 21 exhibits a predetermined thickness, and the particles 22 It can move within the outer cladding layer 21 (or the inner cladding layer 25), and then seal the filling port airtightly to complete the filling operation; after that, in step (502), a pre-set Molding operation, this operation is usually performed at the factory, that is, based on a preliminary three-dimensional sole configuration. The aforementioned "preliminary three-dimensional sole configuration" generally refers to some representative three-dimensional sole models, for example, those that fit most people's soles. The shape of the sole of the foot or the shape of the sole of the foot is designed according to the user's expectation. After that, the filled insole is laid flat or placed on the support fixture (i.e., shoe mold table), so that the opening and closing element 24 is The air channel 211 is in a one-way exhaust mode or a two-way ventilation mode. The preliminary sole three-dimensional configuration is placed on the outer covering layer of the insole, and appropriate pressure is applied to make the particles 22 Shaping is completed along with the displacement along the three-dimensional configuration of the sole of the foot, and then an air extraction device (such as a vacuum pump) is used to evacuate the outer covering layer 21 through the air channel 211 to obtain strong shaping (higher vacuum). ) effect, and finally the air channel is hermetically sealed to complete the pre-forming operation. This operation allows the insole to maintain its representative appearance for a long time for storage, and will also be convenient for subsequent users.

In addition, in step (503), a forming operation is performed so that the air pressure inside and outside the outer cladding layer 21 is the same or substantially the same, and the opening and closing element 24 causes the air channel to move outward in one direction. In the case of the exhaust mode or the two-way ventilation mode, when the user steps on the whole or part of the sole of the foot and exerts pressure on the outer covering layer 21, the particles 22 can be caused to follow the whole or part of the sole of the foot. The local three-dimensional configuration is displaced to complete the shaping, and the air in the outer covering layer 21 will be discharged to the outside of the outer covering layer 21 through the air channel 211 due to the pressure exerted by the sole of the foot as a whole or locally. , the negative pressure auxiliary element 23 will also be affected by the aforementioned pressure to reduce its occupied volume, and the air in it will also be discharged to the outside of the outer cladding layer 21 through the air channel 211. At this time, the outer cladding layer The top surface of 21 will form a three-dimensional configuration that matches and conforms to the shape of the user's feet; in step (504), a shaping operation is performed so that the opening and closing element 24 allows the air channel to still maintain one-way exhaust. The state may be converted into a two-way non-conducting state, so that the air outside the outer covering layer 21 cannot flow into the outer covering layer 21. After the pressure exerted by the sole of the foot is removed, the negative pressure auxiliary component 23 will The insole 2 expands due to the restoring force and absorbs the residual air between the particles 22, so that the particles 22 are shaped in a state of close contact with each other and difficult to be displaced due to the influence of negative pressure, thereby obtaining the personalized insole 2. Furthermore, in step (505), a heating operation is performed so that the adjacent particles 22 can be directly or indirectly fused into one body, thereby solidifying a long-lasting personalized insole 2; also, for some materials, Gas will be released during heating, which will destroy the original negative pressure state and change the fixed shape. Therefore, in step (505), the insole can be heated while vacuuming to ensure its three-dimensional configuration. Not to be changed. In the above-mentioned manufacturing process of the present invention, steps (502) and (505) can be omitted depending on product requirements.

It is particularly noted that when the opening and closing element 24 uses a check valve, it has the following advantages:

1. The personalized insole 2 can be directly placed in the shoe. During pedaling or walking, the shaping (forming and shaping) of the personalized insole 2 will be automatically completed, which eliminates the need to manually install the insole 2 outside the shoe first. After the forming and shaping operations are completed, the personalized insole 2 is placed into the shoe for use. The main reason is that if the opening and closing element 24 is a plug, an airtight tape, etc., switching the air channel 211 between conduction and non-conduction must generally be done manually, so it needs to be done outside the shoe.

2. Comply with the three-dimensional configuration of the user's feet during daily activities.

3. During daily operations, the vacuum will be automatically replenished (to avoid micro-leakage problems).

4. Personalized insoles can be shaped to meet special configuration requirements. For example, in order to achieve the purpose of correction, patients with flat feet generally hope that the three-dimensional configuration of the insole can conform to the three-dimensional configuration of the sole of their foot when they are slightly stressed (or not stressed), or they hope to have an inclination somewhere or in a certain direction. , protrusions, etc. (such as stimulating acupuncture points), if you use the insole of the check valve at this time, you can manually squeeze the outer covering layer appropriately to make the outer covering layer (and/or the inner covering layer Part of the air in the coating) is slowly discharged to the outside of the outer coating through the air channel under control. When a slight negative pressure is reached, the particles can be brought into contact with each other and kept from moving arbitrarily. state, but when applying force on the outer covering layer with fingers, the particles can be easily moved and the three-dimensional shape after movement can be maintained; use this manual method and compare it with the foot, and use appropriate methods if necessary. Tools are used to assist shaping, which can easily and quickly complete the shaping operation of the special configuration requirements. Finally, the establishment of negative pressure is strengthened to complete the shaping operation, that is, a personalized insole 2 that meets the special configuration requirements is created.
