Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to the field of footwear, particularly the outer soles of walking or athletic shoes.
- Footwear can be designed to provide a variety of stylistic and functional benefits. One of these sought-after utilitarian advantages is comfort of the wearer during various activities. Particularly when walking or running, flexibility and shock absorption of the shoe greatly determine the amount of comfortable support experienced by the wearer. Shoes normally worn for active use, e.g., extensive walking or fitness sports, typically consist of an upper (of canvas, leather or other supple fabric material) joined to an outer sole (of rubber, leather or other durable material) having a bottom that contacts the ground. The inner surface of the outer sole, i.e., outsole, has distinct regions that contact corresponding portions of the wearer's foot sole. For example, the outsole can have distinct heel, arch and plantar regions that underlie the respective portions of the foot—these regions may be specifically adapted to provide a given functional benefit to the parts of the foot that are supported by them. A highly flexible inner sole, i.e., insole, is usually provided that directly contacts the wearer's foot and is positioned between the foot and the upper surface of the outsole. The insole has an upper surface of fabric or soft leather to give added comfort and breathability to the sole of the foot. The outsole needs to embody both flexible and durable characteristics, to resist wear from pavement and torsional stresses, also to cushion shock from impact due to foot motion.
- Others have sought to provide added shock absorption to the outsole by providing added layers or members in various regions of the outsole. For example, U.S. Pat. No. 4,783,910 to Boys, II et al., provides a midsole with discrete heel capsule to cushion G-forces, in conjunction with an anti-torsion heel member. U.S. Pat. Nos. 1,994,681 to Blumfeld, 4,245,406 to Landay, et al., and 5,839,208 to Huang disclose outsoles having inner cavities presenting patterns of ribbed structures that are joined to sides of the outsole. Such structures are said to enhance the shock-absorbing support function of the outsole and its torsional stability.
- U.S. Pat. No. 4,794,707 to Franklin, et al., shows a midsole with an internal dynamic rocker element disposed in the forefoot of the midsole, said to enhance walking comfort.
- U.S. Pat. No. 4,663,865 to Telecemian has a first set of ribs that extend from within the heel cavity and a second set of ribs extending diagonally through the arch cavity, both sets dovetailing into the floor of the plantar cavity. A resilient cushion is located in the plantar cavity, being shaped and sized corresponding to that cavity. However, the separate cushion does not form an integral part of the inner plantar cavity of the outsole, but rather functions as an integral component of the midsole than of the outsole. Moreover, such a cushion requires additional steps to assemble together with the midsole during the manufacturing process.
- Therefore it is desirable to provide a strategically positioned cushioning support member in a strategic functional region of the outsole cavity, which member functions integrally with the outsole in cushioning shock to a given area of the foot.
- It is further desirable to provide a cushioning member that is fabricated as part of the inner cavity of the outsole, so that the member is joined thereto and functions integrally with the outsole, versus other components of the shoe during wear.
- It is still futher desirable to provide an integral cushioning member that functions together with other stabilizing members found within the inner cavity of the outsole.
- According to the subject invention, an outer sole of a shoe unit has a peripheral wall delimiting a plantar, heel and arch region of the outsole. A separate, flexible cushioning pad of polymeric material is molded in place within one or more of the heel, plantar and arch regions of the outsole.
- In a preferred embodiment, the outsole made of a flexible polymeric material having a given density and the pad is molded in place within the plantar region, the pad being formed of a different polymeric material than the outsole, such that the plantar and heel regions are of differing densities, respectively.
- In a preferred embodiment, an inner cavity is formed in at least one of the plantar, heel and arch regions, the cavity including a floor. A separate cushioning pad element is located within the cavity, wherein the pad is molded-in-place to the floor within the cavity to form an integral functional part of the outsole.
- In a preferred embodiment, the cavity and pad are located in the plantar region of the outsole.
- In another preferred embodiment, a plurality of ribs form a structure defining a series of combs that articulate with the peripheral wall of the outsole, the arrangement further delimiting an inner periphery of the cavity, wherein the pad is joined to that inner periphery. In a further preferred embodiment, the cavity and pad are shaped to correspond to the contours of the peripheral walls of the outsole.
- In another preferred embodiment, a plurality of ribs form a structure defining a series of open combs that extend transversely across the outsole and articulate with the peripheral wall of the outsole within one or more of the heel, arch and plantar regions. It is further preferred that the pad be molded in place within the combs of the plantar region.
- An advantage of the present invention is that a strategically positioned cushioning support member can function in a strategic region of the outsole, as an integral part of the outsole, in cushioning shock to a given area of the foot.
- Another advantage of the present invention is that the cushioning member can be fabricated as part of the inner cavity of the outsole, so that the member is joined thereto and functions integrally with the outsole, versus other components of the shoe during wear.
- Another advantage of the present invention is an integral cushioning member that functions together with other stabilizing members found within the inner cavity of the outsole.
- A further advantage of the present invention is enhanced support and shock absorption by providing an outsole with selected cushioning capacity where needed, without the necessity of a separately engineered midsole assembly.
- Other objects and advantages of the present invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art, by a careful examination of the following Specification, Claims and Drawings wherein reference numerals correspond to like descriptions in the Specification.

shoe unit 10, in FIGS. 1-7. More specifically and for purposes of illustration, FIGS. 1-7 generally show one or more elements of only arepresentative unit 10, while a second unit of the pair of footwear is not shown.Unit 10 consists of an upper, generally shown at 12, aninsole 14, anoutsole 16 and apad 18 having a structure and function that shall be detailed below. Those skilled in the art will further appreciate that the present invention could take the form of thesports shoe 10 depicted or, alteratively, the footwear could be a walking shoe, hiking boot or other footwear for active use. Similarly, the materials used for the various elements could be leather or other synthetic materials. - Further according to the subject invention, the
outsole 16 ofshoe unit 10 has aperipheral wall 20 delimiting aplantar 22, aheel 24 and anarch 26 region of the outsole, respectively. As shown in FIGS. 1-3, aninner cavity 28 is preferably formed in at least one of theplantar 22,heel 24 andarch 26 regions, thecavity having floor 30. Preferably,cavity 28 is located in theplantar region 22.Pad 18 is a separate cushioning element preferably located within theplantar cavity 28, where the pad is molded-in-place to thefloor 30 within the cavity to form an integral functional part of theoutsole 26. - A plurality of
ribs 32 form a structure defining a series of combs that articulate with theperipheral wall 20 of the outsole, the arrangement further delimiting aninner periphery 34 of thecavity 28, wherein thepad 18 is joined to that inner periphery. Theribs 32 are normally present in at least theheel 24 but also may exist inplantar region 22 where they provide added support and integrity to the outsole.Ribs 32 preferably extend diagonally, versus the ribs which are present in the heel that extend longitudinally and transversely alongoutsole 16.Ribs 32 are preferably injection molded in one piece, together with theoutsole 16, from a polymeric material, e.g., Thermal Plastic Rubber (TPR).Pad 18 is preferably injection molded-in-place from a similar or different polymeric material relative asoutsole 16. Suitable materials for thepad 18 are preferably selected from the group comprising Ethyl Vinyl Acetate (EVA) and Thermal Plastic Urethane (TPU). - The inner periphery of
cavity 28 andpad 18 are sized and shaped to correspond to one another, and to the contours of theperipheral wall 20 ofoutsole 16.Pad 18 is typically made of EVA, although other resilient, flexible materials are possible as noted above.Pad 18 has anupper surface 36 that is juxtaposed with theinsole 14 and anedge 38 that is positioned adjacent theperiphery 34 ofcavity 28 during assembly ofshoe 10.Heel 40 andtoe 42 caps are provided to receive acorresponding heel 44 andtoe 46 of the upper 12, respectively, for facilitating the adhesive bonding of these structures together. Prior to assembly of the upper 12 andoutsole 16, as mentioned above, thepad 18 can be molded in place onto thefloor 30 as follows. A preformed pad element 19 is placed incavity 28 then alayer 48 is applied of a conventional TPR material or one of the preferred materials mentioned above that adhesively bonds to the top 36 and edge 38 surfaces of the pad, acting further to mold these surfaces to thefloor 30 andribs 32 that compriseinner periphery 34 ofcavity 28. Thepad 18 can also be molded by conventional injection molding, in a relatively simultaneous step along with theoutsole 16. - Referring to FIGS.5-6,
pad 18 extends betweenperipheral walls 20 and fillscavity 28, whereas FIGS. 6-7 alternatively showribs 32 being present inplantar region 22 such that the polymeric material of injection moldedpad 18 is found within the comb structure betweenribs 32. Because the polymeric material ofribs 32 andoutsole 16 can be the same or different thanpad 18, it is possible to have different regions ofoutsole 16 with differing densities. - Obviously, other substitutions, modifications and alterations of the embodiments presented herein are made apparent to those skilled in the art, without departing from the scope of the present invention. Thus, the description contained in this Specification is intended by way of example rather than limitation vis-a-vis the appended Claims.
