FIG. 7 is a schematic diagram of a bottomless rainproof shoe cover capable of being put on and taken off rapidly when being put on a shoe and a leg according to the present invention. - The present invention provides a bottomless rainproof shoe cover capable of being rapidly put on and taken off. For the sake of simplicity in the following description, a shoe cover pair is generally described using only a single shoe cover.
- Referring to
FIG. 1 andFIG. 2 , a bottomless rainproof shoe cover 1 (one of a pair of shoe covers of the present invention) comprises afront cover sheet 10, arear cover sheet 11, aframing strip 12 and afixture 13. - The
front cover sheet 10 is substantially in the form of a cover body, is made of thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) or thermoplastic silicone, and made by thermal compression molding, injection molding, or liquid injection molding. Alternatively, thefront cover sheet 10 may be a laminated long fiber tissue or a thermoplastic mesh, which may be, for example, made of polypropylene (PP), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), or nylon. Two rows of embeddingprotrusions 101 are formed along an interior circumference of thefront cover sheet 10 and the above-mentionedframing strip 12 is embedded between theembedding protrusions 101. Glue fills theembedding protrusions 101 to affix theframing strip 12 between the two rows of embeddingprotrusions 101. Although two rows of embeddingprotrusions 101 are disclosed, other means of embedding theframing strip 10 along the interior circumference of thefront cover sheet 10 are envisaged and possible in the present invention. - The
rear cover sheet 11 is substantially in the form of a hollow sleeve having an “L” shape and may be, for example, made of thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) or thermoplastic silicone, and may be formed by thermal compression molding, injection molding, or liquid injection molding. Two ends (not labeled but can be referred toFIG. 6 ) are formed on therear cover sheet 11. The two ends can each overlap the other to some extent. Fasteningelements - The
front cover sheet 10 andrear cover sheet 11 each have a front end and a rear end, and are brought together at one of their respective ends. Then, afixture 13 is fixed onto the joint between the front andrear cover sheets rainproof shoe cover 1 is thus formed. - Then, the
framing strip 12 is laid along thefront cover sheet 10 and formed as a ladder shape along the front-most end of thefront shoe cover 10, as shown in the figures. Theframing strip 12 may be implemented with a shape memory wire, a thin wire cable, or a thin spring. The plastic material for theframing strip 12 may be Polyperpropylene (PET), nylon, poly-carbonate (PC), polyoxymethylene (POM), or acrylonnitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS). More details about theframing strip 12 are provided in the following. - The
fixture 13 has two symmetrical portions (as shown inFIG. 3 ) andfixing elements 133 are formed thereon, respectively. Each of thefixing elements 133 has arespective fixing hole 1330 formed thereon. Theframing strip 12 is not only embedded and fixed between theembedding protrusions 101 by way of the glue as discussed above, but also has two ends that may be inserted into therespective fixing holes 1330. In this manner, the bottomlessrainproof shoe cover 1 is further reinforced in its profile. - The
fixture 13 is approximately a “C” shaped clip and comprises aspring 130, abuffering piece 131,slip resisting elements 132, fixingelements 133 and acover strip 134. Thespring 130 is bent into the shape of a “C” with two wings thereof flexed respectively like a hairpin. Thespring 130 may be formed from a snake spring. Abuffering material 131 is disposed along the interior rim of thespring 130 and may be formed from rubber or silicon or inflated versions thereof. In this way discomfort arising from direct contact and abrasion between thespring 130 and the shoe cover sheet portion therebelow is avoided. Acover strip 134 covers thespring 130 andbuffering material 131 and through which thespring 130 andbuffering material 131 are fused together with the front andrear cover sheets spring 130 are bonded and affixed with the fixingelements 133, which are disposed on thespring 130, for fixing the two ends of the framingstrip 12. Theslip resisting elements 132 are disposed on a top face and a bottom face of the two wings of the horizontal portions of the fixture 13 (thespring 130, and termed as upper and lower slip resisting elements 132), respectively, to resist any slippage occurring between thespring 130 and theslip resisting elements 132. Theslip resisting elements 132 may be implemented by grids or dot embossments, so that wear-resistance and endurance of the shoe cover are enhanced. With this fixing effect, the bottomlessrainproof shoe cover 1 can be put on and taken off rapidly and user convenience and abrasion resist functions thereof can be provided therefor. - In an embodiment, the front and
rear cover sheets rear cover sheets strip 12 and afixture 13. Regardless of whether the front andrear cover sheets strip 12 may be omitted. In embodiments without the framingstrip 12, the front-most portion of thefront cover sheet 10 may be enhanced for structural strength. A bottomlessrainproof cover sheet 1 without the framingstrip 12 is thus formed. - Referring to
FIG. 3 ,FIG. 4A ,FIG. 4B ,FIG. 5 andFIG. 6 , when the shoe cover is put on, thebuffering piece 131 is disposed against the side portions of the shoe cover and the two horizontal wings of thefixture 13 clip theindented portion 140 on the shoe bottom. Theslip resisting elements 132 are disposed against the upper and lower faces of the two wings of thefixture 13. The upper part of theslip resisting elements 132 can enhance the fixing effect of the shoe cover, while the lower part of theslip resisting elements 132 can increase the endurance of the shoe cover. - In addition, the ladder shaped portion formed by the front part of the framing
strip 12 is located at the front rim A of thefront cover sheet 10, so as to reduce the possibility of abrasion with the ground of the front portion of thefront cover sheet 10 and improve the endurance of the shoe cover. - Referring to
FIG. 4A andFIG. 4B , the embeddingprotrusions 101 are disposed on a wall of an interior circumference of thefront cover sheet 10 for receiving and fixing the framing strip 12 (described in the sense that the framingstrip 12 is embedded in the embedding protrusions 101). In addition, glue is filled between theprotrusions 101 for further fixation of the framingstrip 12. The framingstrip 12 may be formed from a shape memory wire, a thin wire cable, or a thin spring. At the same time, the ladder shaped portion formed by the front part of the framingstrip 12 is located at the front rim A of the front cover sheet, so as to reduce the possibility of abrasion with the ground of the front portion of the shoe and shoe covers and improve the endurance of the shoe covers. - Referring to
FIG. 5 , thefixture 13 is fused between thefront cover sheet 10 andrear cover sheet 11. Thefixture 13 has two wings, which are welded or nailed to a fixingelement 133, respectively. In the center of each of the fixingelements 133, a tube-like fixing hole 1330 is formed, respectively. The two ends of the framingstrip 12 are inserted into the fixingholes 1330, respectively. As such, the structural strength of the profile of thefront cover sheet 10 is enhanced. - Referring to
FIG. 6 , therear cover sheet 11, as above-mentioned, has two ends, which can be overlapped to some extent. On the two ends, an inner side of one of the two ends has afastening element 111 disposed thereon, while anouter side 110 of the other end has afastening element 110 disposed thereon. When a user puts the shoe cover on his shoe, the fastening elements, 111, 110 couple or adhere to each other. As such, different sizes of shoes can be covered by the shoe cover by adjusting the fastening range between the two ends of therear cover sheet 11. - Referring to
FIG. 7 , a schematic diagram of the bottomlessrainproof shoe cover 1 capable of being put on and taken off rapidly when being put onto ashoe 14 and aleg 15 according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown therein. Thefront cover 10 covers theshoe 14 at a front portion, the framingstrip 12 goes along the front-most portion of theshoe 14, thefixture 13 is located along the shoe side positions, and therear cover sheet 11 covers the shoe heel, and theleg 15 of the user. Therefore, the bottomlessrainproof shoe cover 1 provides good protection from rainwater as well as convenience in terms of being put on and taken off. - It is to be understand that while certain forms of the present invention have been illustrated and described herein, it is not to be limited to the specific forms or arrangement of parts described and shown.
