Also a method of joining the preformed sole to the bottom of the lasted upper by holding it against a cushion layer of smaller size than the sole and with a spacer surrounding the cushion layer and forming a connecting strip around the edge of the sole and the adjacent shoulder of the lasted upper.
  • the invention is concerned with the construction of shoes with air-cushion sole as well as form and process for their manufacture.
  • the task at the basis of the invention is to simplify the construction and production of shoes with air-cushion sole, in such a way that the expenditure of manual labor with the production of shoes of this type is reduced.
  • the invention consists in a special forming of a shoe with air-cushion sole, which according to the invention is connected to the upper by injecting a plasticizable synthetic material or rubber.
  • the air-cushion is arranged in the area of the sole or half sole which has been sealed against the injected material.
  • shoes with air-cushion soles are produced by the fact that a premanufactured sole or half sole together with the air cushion are moved by a sole plate in the mold of an injection molding machine into engagement with a lasted upper whereupon an eXtrudable material capable of being injected into the mold cavity, in particular synthetic material or rubber, is injected into the mold cavity provided for this purpose between the sole and the upper to produce a joining.
  • the air-cushion soles consisting of a sole or half sole and air-cushion, are connected with the upper in an injection molding machine. Thereby, this essential part of the manufacturing process may be carried out by machine.
  • the sole or half sole is made with the same sole plate with which the sole or half sole is moved together with the air-cushion into engagement with the upper.
  • a further proposal of the invention consists in the fact that the air-cushion is sealed by a sealing ring, separated from the sole or half sole, against the injected material.
  • a sole or half sole which is essentially free from elevations on the side confronting the upper or air-cushion. Therefore soles or half soles made in the usual manner can be used, especially also soles stamped out from sheets or the like. These soles can then be processed as customary soles, in particular roughened on the upper side and spread over with an adhesive agent. Thereby the costs for the production of the sole or half sole as well as the expenditure in handling of the same are reduced.
  • the sole or half sole can consist of a material corresponding to the requirements of practice, for example, to be especially abrasionproof, oil-proof, heat-resistant, and the like.
  • the sealing ring can ⁇ be of a material of desirable elasticity and formability, for example, porous or cellular synthetic material or rubber.
  • the thickness of the manufactured air-cushion can be adapted better and more easily corresponding to the practical requirements at any given time through corresponding dimensioning of the sealing ring.
  • the thickness of the air-cushion sole is predetermined. To that extent, desirable adjustings are made possible without the use of a corresponding number of different molds for the production of soles or half soles.
  • the packing ring is fastened at the sole or half sole and/or at the upper or at the insole, especially by means of adhesive.
  • the sealing ring can be injected to the upper or to the insole for which an injection mold made according to the invention is used.
