Abstract
A structure which is designed for a slipper used indoors, especially a structure designed for a slipper adapted to being partially torn away, the structure is composed of a main body and a sleeve, wherein the sleeve is slipped over the main body; and the bottom of the sleeve is made of non-woven fabric in plural layers, and the bottom of the sleeve is provided with a tearing line, thereby when the main body of the slipper is worn on a foot, the non-woven fabric structure of the sleeve adsorbs hairs, dusts to get an effect of cleaning a floor; and the bottommost non-woven fabric layer can be torn away by means of the tearing line, thus cleanliness of the bottom of the sleeve can be kept.
Description
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention is related to a structure which is designed for a slipper used indoors, and especially to a slipper that can have an effect of cleaning a floor by adsorbing hairs, dusts and can keep cleanliness of the bottom of the slipper.
- 2. Description of the Prior Art
- Dusts are always in the air, a floor adsorbs a lot of dusts, and people often have the phenomenon of dropping hairs being due to the functions of their bodies; these make the floor overly dirty and make a mess of the floor.
- A conventional slipper mainly is composed of a main body, a person can wear it on a foot to avoid contact with a floor, thus cleanliness of the floor and the bottom of the foot can be kept.
- While the abovementioned conventional slipper is subjected to bringing dusts and hairs to corners of rooms by walking of the person, and can induce dirtiness and mess of the indoor environment; hence the slipper must be cleansed after a time period to keep its cleanliness and provide a better indoor environment. This way can make a house owner or a house administrator trouble in cleansing; and an improvement is necessary.
- In view of the above stated problems, the inventor of the present invention provides an improved structure of slipper used indoors based on his professional experience of years in studying, designing and manufacturing same kind of products and after positive and hard study and developing.
- The improved structure of slipper used indoors mainly is composed of a main body and a sleeve, wherein the sleeve is slipped over the main body, and the bottom of the sleeve is made of non-woven fabric in plural layers, and the bottom of the sleeve is provided with a tearing line, thereby when the main body of the slipper is worn on a foot, the non-woven fabric structure of the sleeve adsorbs hairs, dusts to get an effect of cleaning a floor; and the bottommost non-woven fabric layer can be torn away by means of the tearing line, thus cleanliness of the bottom of the sleeve can be kept.
- The primary object of the present invention is by slipping of the sleeve made of non-woven fabric over the main body of the slipper, the non-woven fabric structure off the sleeve adsorbs hairs; dusts on the floor; and by means of the tearing line, the bottommost non-woven fabric layer can be torn-away to keep the cleanliness of the bottom of the slipper, and further to keep the cleanliness of the floor.
- The secondary object of the present invention is: the slipper itself can be made of non-woven fabric too, and a tearing line is provided on the contact surface of the main body of the slipper with the bottom of the foot of a user, therefore, by tearing away of the non-woven fabric by means of the tearing line, the user can keep cleanliness of the main body of the slipper when in wearing the latter.
- The present invention will be apparent in its content and effect to be achieved after reading the detailed description of the preferred embodiment thereof in reference to the accompanying drawings.
-
FIG. 1 is an anatomic perspective schematic view of the present invention; -
FIG. 2 is a perspective schematic view of the present invention; -
FIG. 3 is a perspective schematic view showing the bottom surface of the present invention; -
FIG. 4 is a sectional view of the present invention taken from a sectional line inFIG. 2 ; -
FIG. 5 is a perspective view showing another embodiment of main body of the slipper of the present invention. - Referring firstly to
FIGS. 1-3 , the improved structure of slipper used indoors of the present invention is composed of amain body 10 and asleeve 20, wherein: - The
main body 10 is for wearing on a foot of a user, and is provided with a slipping-overportion 11, the slipping-overportion 11 can slip over the foot. - The
sleeve 20 is slipped over themain body 10, and the bottom of thesleeve 20 is made ofnon-woven fabric 21 in plural layers; thesleeve 20 is provided on its front end with a slipping-overcover 22, and is provided on its rear end with afixing pocket 23, and the bottom of thesleeve 20 is provided with atearing line 24. - Thereby, the
main body 10 has the slipping-overportion 11 slipped in the slipping-overcover 22 of thesleeve 20, then the rear end of themain body 10 is slipped in thefixing pocket 23 on the rear end of thesleeve 20, so that thesleeve 20 can be slipped over themain body 10 for wearing on the foot of the user. - Referring simultaneously to
FIGS. 3 and 4 , when themain body 10 of the slipper is slipped in thesleeve 20 for wearing on the foot of the user, by the fact that the bottom of thesleeve 20 is subjected to adsorbing substances such as dusts and hairs by walking of the user, the bottommost layer of thenon-woven fabric 21 can be torn away by means of thetearing line 24 on the bottom of thesleeve 20, thus cleanliness of the bottom of thesleeve 20 can be kept. Taking advantage of the structural feature of thenon-woven fabric 21, the bottom of thesleeve 20 can repeatedly adsorb dusts and hairs to get an effect of cleaning a floor, and of keeping tidiness of the spaces of rooms indoors, thus a better environment of living can be provided. - And more, referring also to
FIG. 5 , wherein the bottom of themain body 10 of the slipper can also be made of non-woven fabric in plural layers, and the surface on themain body 10 of the slipper for wearing on the foot of the user is provided with atearing line 12; so that when the user wears themain body 10 of the slipper, he can have the hairs and dusts on the foot of the user adsorbed with thenon-woven fabric 12 on the bottom of themain body 10 of the slipper to thereby keep the cleanliness of the foot of the user. - And the uppermost layer of the
non-woven fabric 12 is torn away, so that the next person can have themain body 10 which is cleaner of the slipper for wearing, cleanliness of themain body 10 of the slipper can thus be kept. - The names of the members composing the present invention and the embodiment given is only for illustrating the present invention, and not for giving any limitation to the scope of the present invention; it will be apparent to those skilled in this art that various equivalent modifications or changes without departing from the spirit of this invention shall also fall within the scope of the appended claims.
