Description
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates to shoe inserts for correction, and more specifically to shoe inserts for correction which not only corrects unevenly deformed joints of a human body evenly by wearing shoes with shoe inserts inside but also provides enough massage effects.
- 2. Description of the Related Arts
- Basically, shoe inserts were used to absorb or disperse shock as much as possible by putting shoe inserts inside shoes so that shock mainly occurring while walking is not given directly to feet and not transmitted to a human body, or to correct shoes when shoes are loose because the size of shoes are bigger than feet.
- These shoe inserts may have effects of cushioning and size correction, however, these shoe inserts also had problems of not preventing pain of feet and knees and also, in worse cases, diseases such as arthritis, or cervical and lumbar discs occurring by having bad impact on joints of the knees, the hip, the waist and the neck since a leg becomes twisted when the heel is twisted because the structure of feet supporting most of weight while walking is not normal.
- That is, femur and tibia make ideal angle and the up-and-down space between inner side and outer side of the knee joint is balanced in case of having normal legs for an exemplary embodiment, on the other hand, the knee joint and the hip joint become twisted when a heel is twisted due to the side wear of a shoe or bad walking habit, thus generating unstable standing posture or walking posture since legs bend in a ‘O’ shape if up-and-down space of outer side of the knee joint is bigger than that of inner side, and also causing degenerative arthritis since the friction pressure of inner side of the knee increases. On the contrary, if legs bend in a ‘X’ shape when up-and-down space of outer side of the knee joint is smaller than that of inner side, the shock absorption is occurred due to the imbalance of the knee or hip joint in the process of transmitting mobility generated from a foot to the upper body through the knee, and mobility cannot function at its best.
- So, shoe inserts for correction were proposed to solve these problems in the past, wherein narrowing the space between the knees which were widened in a ‘O’ shape when using shoe inserts for correction for a long time by forming the rear portion supporting the rear-sole portion flat and forming the middle portion and the front portion supporting the middle-sole portion and the front-sole portion to be inclined upwardly to the outer side so that the outer side edge of the middle-sole portion and the front-sole portion gets lifted from the sole of the foot to the side of the little toe by the inclined surface when wearing the shoes.
- These shoe inserts for correction had problem of not correcting when a heel is twisted since only edges of outer side of a middle-sole portion and a front-sole portion were lifted up by the inclined surface, excluding the heel, while keeping the heel in a flat state same as normal shoe inserts.
- In addition, these shoe inserts for correction had disadvantage of having limited purpose since the shoe inserts for correction cannot be used in the correction of ‘X’ shaped knee since only edges of outer side of the middle-sole portion and the front-sole portion are lifted up, and also had problems of causing waste of resources and costs since the shoe inserts should have been manufactured not only in various sizes with different heights of the inclined surface in order to fit the foot size of the users but also in whole size of the sole of a foot.
- The present invention is invented by considering these and the purpose of is to provide shoe inserts for correction to effectively correct twisted heel so that not only the pain of feet and knee but also diseases such as arthritis or cervical and lumbar discs can be prevented.
- In addition, the other purpose of the present invention is not to waste resources and costs.
- Moreover, another purpose of the present invention is to provide shoe inserts for correction which contributes to health maintenance by preventing wearing discomfort and also improving massage effect sharply.
- The present invention is to provide shoe inserts for correction comprising a body having a size supporting only bottoms of a rear-sole portion and a middle-sole portion of a foot, and a correction means disposed at one of an outer side or an inner side of lower surface of the rear-sole portion of the body in a manner of crossing back and forth. The shoe inserts for correction are provided to not waste resources and costs and to correct legs by choosing and using the shoe inserts whether which side between the outer side or the inner side of the heel is twisted by placing the body having the correction means disposed at the inner side of the lower surface of the rear-sole portion into the shoes when legs are bent in a ‘X’ shape since the up-and-down space of inner side of the knee joint becomes bigger than that of the outer side, whereas, by placing the body having the correction means disposed at the outer side of the lower surface of the rear-sole portion into the shoes when legs are bent in a ‘O’ shape since the heel is twisted and the up-and-down space of inner side of the knee joint becomes smaller than that of the outer side.
- In addition, the present invention provides shoe inserts for correction that can choose and use the right ones by comprising a correction means protruding downwardly in an integral form on the lower surface of the rear-sole portion or comprising a separately manufactured correction means coupled to the lower surface of the rear-sole portion and at the same time forming the up-and-down thickness in proportional to the twisted degree of a heel.
- Moreover, the present invention provides shoe inserts for correction comprises; a body formed in a size supporting only bottoms of a rear-sole portion and a middle-sole portion of a foot; a correction means disposed at one of an outer side or an inner side of the lower surface of the rear-sole portion of the body in a manner of crossing back and forth; a coupling recess recessed into a portion corresponding to an arcuate portion of the foot; a massage member formed of one of soft synthetic resin, rubber or rubber magnet to gain sufficient massage effect when wearing the shoes by forming in different heights according to the depth of the arcuate portion and inserting and coupling to the coupling recess after selecting the right one according to the depth of the arcuate portion; and a slide-preventing means for preventing the body from being slid forward.
- Furthermore, the present invention provides shoe inserts for correction comprises a slide-preventing means with a friction member disposed at the front end portion of the lower surface of the body or with a size supporting the entire sole, and which is formed in a shape of an insole comprising a supporting jaw formed at a boundary, formed by making the rear portion thinner than the front portion, between a front-sole portion and a rear portion to support a front end portion of the body and thus prevent the body from being slid forward while using the slide-preventing means.
- The shoe inserts for correction according to the present invention is characterized to correct twisted heel more effectively by selecting and using shoe inserts comprising correction means with right location and thickness according to which side of heel is twisted and the twisted degree.
- In addition, resources and costs are not wasted since shoe inserts for correction are not manufactured in various sizes that is proportional to size of feet or twisted degree of heel by manufacturing separate correction means and coupling to lower surface of a real-sole portion.
- Moreover, the shoe inserts for correction may have advantage of massage effect and good wearing comfort since a body is not being slid forward.
