Definitions

  • the present invention belongs to the field of footwear engineering, and describes a self-scalable casual footwear that allows involve two subsequent footwear sizes, both on foot length and several widths/perimeters and heights that the same foot length can hold without the need for additional components for adjustment, such as laces, rubber bands, straps, velcro, zippers, hooks, eyelets or any other that is treated as a resource for the purpose of this invention.
  • the document CN20237514U differs from the present invention because only the requisite of width of the footwear is met, the outsole being static in relation to the length.
  • the present invention meets both the width and length needs in all of its component parts and is intended for adult female public.
  • the document ES1061431 is not in conflict with the present invention, because it is a product for the children's segment, as the outsole allows only adjustment in length, the width getting adjustable by a velcro system. Differently, the present invention meets both the width and length needs in all its component parts.
  • the document GB913182A is different from the present invention, since it refers only to elasticity on the footwear length.
  • the present invention has the objective of providing the use of a footwear which allows to involve two subsequent footwear sizes, since, at the same time as different people with the same length of feet may have different widths/perimeters, either in the regions of the hindfoot, midfoot and forefoot, the individual himself/herself does not have symmetry of the members in question.
  • FIG. 1 shows a perspective view of the footwear described in the present invention
  • FIG. 2 shows the mounting insole, showing the narrower areas ( 5 ) as described in the present invention
  • FIG. 3 shows the outsole as described in the present invention
  • FIG. 4 shows the bi-elastic material of upper, highlighting the three layers that comprise it: the first and third layer ( 8 ) of synthetic knitted fabric and the second layer ( 9 ) of latex foam material with SBR; and
  • FIG. 5 shows a side sectional view of the outsole highlighting the two layers ( 6 and 7 ) that compose it.
  • the present invention relates to a casual footwear that allows involve two subsequent footwear sizes, comprising an upper of bi-elastic material ( 1 ) and a mono-elastic ( 2 ), an outsole of bi-material ( 3 ) and a mounting insole ( 4 ).
  • the upper, the top part of the footwear, is manufactured with a hi-elastic material ( 1 ) and a mono-elastic material ( 2 ).
  • the first ensures a lengthening in the vertical and horizontal direction (length and width of feet), and is composed of materials having an elastic property and divided into three layers: the first and third ( 8 ) layers of synthetic knitted fabric with a yarn composition in the range of 83% to 97% of PES (polyester), and is more suitable the composition of 90% PBS and 10% of PUR.
  • the composition of the fabric yarns may be of synthetic or natural origin associated with a PUR yarn in the process of manufacturing the knitting for interlacing the yarns, thereby securing its elasticity.
  • the second layer ( 9 ) is composed of latex foam material with SBR (styrene butadiene rubber) with 1.3 to 5 mm of thickness and specific gravity of 140 kg/m 3 and 350 kg/m 3 , the most suitable thickness and specific gravity being 2 mm and 270 kg/m 3 .
  • SBR styrene butadiene rubber
  • thermo-sticky PU thermo-sticky PU
  • other adhesives alternatives may also be applied in the liquid state (when the adhesive is applied at ambient temperature without the need for heat usage to reactivate its properties) or in the semi-solid/paste state (hot melting, when it is necessary to liquefy it with a high temperature to activate its stickiness properties).
  • the mono-elastic material ( 2 ) has only lengthening in its width, and is composed of a base of PES (polyester) fabric and a PU (polyurethane) coating, and is considered a “laminate fabric” or “synthetic laminate”. It is set in the bi-elastic material ( 1 ) by an adhesive film with thermo-sticky PU resin and seams around the edges, it is arranged in three parts (pieces) that limit the excessive lengthening of the footwear in the heel area, toecap (front of the footwear) and parts of the sides.
  • the bi-elastic material ( 1 ) In areas where it is not fixed, it allows the bi-elastic material ( 1 ) to hold the property of the lengthening, allowing the footwear to fit the size and width of the foot without causing an excessive pressure (tighten the foot) or a play (the footwear drops out of the foot), allowing for a safe walking.
  • the mounting insole ( 4 ) is developed with a web of 100% of PES, a resin non-woven fabric with a grammage of between 140 and 500 g/m 2 and with specific design, so that, during the manufacturing process of positioning the upper in the mold, allows the length accuracy and not leaving the footwear loose or warped, and when gluing/setting the outsole, the narrower areas ( 5 ) are cut and removed to allow the lengthening of the footwear not to be compromised.
  • the bi-material outsole ( 3 ) of TR forms two layers, the first ( 7 ) being soft and elastic with a hardness between 20 and 25 Shore A, preferably of 22 Shore A and a thickness between 0.9 and 2.0 mm, preferably of 1.5 mm, in the sole of the foot region (forefoot and midfoot) enabling the lengthening safely, since when reducing the thickness, a low resistance to lengthening occurs and otherwise make rigid the material for lengthening, and a thickness between 8 and 11 mm, preferably of 9 mm, in the heel region (hindfoot), guaranteeing the quality to absorb the impact when walking, without deformation or excessive rigidity.
  • the second layer ( 6 ), which is in contact with the ground, is soft and resistant to wear (abrasion) with a hardness between 70 and 80 Shore A, preferably of 80 Shore A.
  • the wavy design on its surface enables a greater adherence and ensures the safety when walking, and its application is divided distinctly in the three regions of the foot, more statically covering the entire area of the hindfoot, without significant sizing, in the midfoot/forefoot divided into fifteen insulated parts and with distinct shapes enabling the outsole lengthening in the width and length of the foot and in the forefoot statically occupying part of the toecap/tip of the footwear without significant sizing.
