Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an improved waterproof and breathable sole for shoes.
  • Plastic waterproof and breathable soles for shoes are already known.
  • the sole comprises:
  • a waterproof and breathable sole disclosed in WO 98/51177 by the same Applicant is also known; it comprises a preassembled insert in which there is a membrane that is impermeable to water and permeable to water vapor, associated with a lower protective layer made of a material that is resistant to hydrolysis, water-repellent, breathable and/or perforated.
  • the insert is completed by an element that is overmolded or assembled in place and surrounds the membrane and the protective layer and is joined hermetically to them.
  • the insert is part of a mid-sole and is joined together with said mid-sole to a tread made of perforated plastic, which is overmolded or assembled in place.
  • the protective layer arranged below the membrane is meant to protect said membrane against piercing due to foreign objects accidentally passing through the holes.
  • the protective layer is normally made of felt and is coupled to the membrane in a breathable manner (by means of spots of thermoplastic adhesive which has for example a polyurethane base), to allow the passage of the vapor from the inside of the shoe toward the outside through the holes provided in the tread.
  • the membrane is in fact normally made of expanded polytetrafluoroethylene, which is a scarcely elastic material, while the tread by its very nature and due to its operating requirements must be very elastic and flexible.
  • the membrane is unable to absorb the flexural stresses that produce an elastic elongation of the polymer, of which the elastomeric tread is made (PVC, TR, polyurethane, rubber, et cetera), in movements, during use and accordingly tends to tear because its elasticity modulus is exceeded, and loses its waterproofness.
  • the protective element below the membrane which is normally made of polyester felt, has been found unable, on its own, to absorb the tensions induced by the deformations of the sole.
  • the problem of the breakage of the membrane is not solved permanently, because of the reversibility of the phenomenon of thermoplasticity of the polyurethane adhesive used to laminate the membrane with the felt layer: the melting point of said adhesive (for example 65° C.) is in fact lower than the temperature (for example 180° C.) at which the polymer that constitutes the tread and must form a peripheral seal on the membrane is injected into the mold.
  • Temperatures higher than the melting point of the polyurethane adhesive can be reached both during the normal production of the shoe and during use of the shoe (for example when walking on hot tarmac during the summer period).
  • thermoplastic adhesive By reaching temperatures higher than the melting point, the thermoplastic adhesive is reactivated and the viscosity is reduced considerably (it is known that viscosity is a function of temperature), allowing complete absorption of said adhesive by the felt.
  • the aim of the present invention is therefore to provide a waterproof and breathable sole for shoes having an improved structure that is capable of eliminating the drawbacks noted above in known types, which lead to the tearing of the waterproof and water vapor-permeable membrane.
  • an object of the invention is to not reduce in any case the waterproofness and breathability capabilities of the sole.
  • Another object is to provide a sole that does not entail particular constructive complications with respect to known soles.
  • Another object is to provide a sole whose costs are competitive with respect to the costs of known types.
  • a waterproof and breathable sole for shoes having a structure that comprises:
  • FIG. 1 is a transverse sectional view of a waterproof and breathable sole for shoes having the structure according to the invention, in a first embodiment thereof;
  • FIG. 2 is a transverse sectional view of a waterproof and breathable sole for shoes having the structure according to the invention, in a second embodiment thereof.
  • a waterproof and breathable sole for shoes has, in a first embodiment, a structure that comprises a mid-sole 10 that is composed of a membrane 11 made of a material that is impermeable to water and permeable to water vapor (normally commercially available and made for example of expanded polytetrafluoroethylene), laminated over a supporting mesh 12 made of synthetic material and associated, by way of spots of adhesive 13 , with a lower protective layer 14 made of a material that is resistant to hydrolysis, water-repellent, breathable and/or perforated, preferably a polyester felt.
  • the structure further comprises a tread 15 made of elastomer, with through holes 16 , which is overmolded or assembled in place on the mid-sole 10 and is perimetrically joined hermetically thereto (see the borders 17 that surround its edges in FIG. 1 ).
  • the structure is characterized in that said membrane 11 is associated with said protective layer 14 by way of a thermoreactive adhesive.
  • Thermoreactive adhesives are adhesives that are per se known in another technical field; they are in fact used for example to produce barrier fabrics for surgical uses, which are formed by two or more layers of different materials that are laminated together.
  • Said fabrics in fact require repeated sterilizations in an autoclave at high temperatures in order to allow their reuse, and it is evident that the high temperature reached during the sterilization operation must not cause the separation of the two or more elements that constitute the barrier fabric.
  • bonds occur between the NCO and OH groups that are present in the molecular chains that constitute said adhesives.
  • Thermoreactive adhesives usable for the purposes of the invention are, for example, thermoplastic polyurethane adhesives which are manufactured by the company SCHAETTI AG, Switzerland, and marketed under the name PU SCHAETTI FIX 6050.
  • thermoreactive adhesives to associate in spots the membrane 11 with the protective layer 14 have shown that their molecular bonds do not allow melting and absorption at high temperatures of the adhesive by the felt of the protective layer 14 , preventing the separation of the membrane 11 and thus allowing the distribution of the stress over a larger cross-section (membrane 11 +felt of the layer 14 ).
  • a waterproof and breathable sole for shoes in a second embodiment, has a structure that comprises a preassembled insert 110 , which corresponds to the mid-sole 10 of the previous embodiment and in which there is a membrane 111 which is made of a material that is impermeable to water and permeable to water vapor (normally commercially available, for example made of expanded polytetrafluoroethylene), which is laminated over a supporting mesh 112 made of synthetic material and associated by spots of adhesive 113 with a lower protective layer 114 made of a material that is resistant to hydrolysis, water-repellent, breathable and/or perforated, preferably a polyester felt.
  • a membrane 111 which is made of a material that is impermeable to water and permeable to water vapor (normally commercially available, for example made of expanded polytetrafluoroethylene), which is laminated over a supporting mesh 112 made of synthetic material and associated by spots of adhesive 113 with a lower protective layer 114 made of a material that is resistant to hydro
  • the insert 110 is completed by a perimetric element 117 that is overmolded or assembled in place and surrounds the membrane 111 (with the mesh 112 ) and the protective layer 114 and is joined hermetically to them.
  • the insert 110 is joined to a tread 115 made of elastomer, with through holes 116 , that is overmolded or assembled in place thereon.
  • the structure is characterized in that said membrane 111 is associated with said protective layer 114 by way of a thermoreactive adhesive 113 .
  • the method for obtaining the described improved shoe sole is based on the steps for assemblying the sole parts as disclosed in relation with the preferred embodiments of the invention.
  • a waterproof and breathable sole for shoes having an improved structure has in fact been devised which eliminates the drawbacks suffered by known types which lead to the tearing of the waterproof and vapor-permeable membrane, without reducing the waterproofness and breathability characteristics of the sole.
  • the dimensions may be any according to requirements.
