Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a spiked shoe com- Dec. 27, 1972 Japan 47-l48345 prising a sole provided with a plural number of spikes on the lower surface thereof, and an upper mounted [52] US. Cl 36/59 R on said sole, wherein the effective part of each spike [51 Int. Cl A43b 23/28 om rises a parallel element having uniform cross secl i Fleld of Search 36/59 67 67 A. 67 D. tion in form and area through the length thereof, the 36/67 B bottom face of said parallel element being of a shape cut by a plane vertical to the axis of the spike.
  • the present invention relates to a spiked shoe for athletes.
  • a spiked shoes for athletes of the conventional type is usually providedwith a number of spikes on the sole thereof and the effective part of each spike is usually of a circular conical shape, and therefore said spike is stuck into a running track from the surface to the innerpart thereof so as to make necessary resistance force to slide slipping.
  • a running track comprises multiple- Iayered soil in the conventional use, such as of an entout-cas layer, a cinder layer, a gravel layer and sand layer, spikes are deeply stuck into the track, so that kicking action of an athletes foot is counteracted,'and more energy is required for pulling out said stuck spikes, or the track surface is damaged, which causes so-called ground condition to go bad.
  • Resilient rubbery sheet formed of macromolecular compound has the property of being buoyant and resilient when rather lightly pressed,,and rigid when pressed hard. For example, in a sprint race, a weight 3 times as.
  • spiked shoes of conventional type with circular conical spikes are used on a track of resilient rubbery sheet formedof macromolecular-compound, resistance force increases in pulling out the spikes once stuck into the track. Therefore, an athlete needs more energy for lifting-his legs, so that the essential function of spiked shoes is lost. Further, marks left on the resil ient rubbery sheet by saidspikes are not healed of itself.
  • spiked shoesfor such a track requested by an athlete as well as a ground owner are such as can catch the ground surface well, and has strong resistance to side slipping, and does not damage the track by leav ing spike marks thereon.
  • the main object of the present invention is to eliminate above-mentioned disadvantages of the conventional spiked shoes.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide spiked shoes especially suitable for a track of a resilient rubbery sheet formed of macromolecular compound, for example, used for a all-weather ground.
  • a number of spikes are mountedon the lower sole thereof, and the effective part of each spike comprises a parallel element, the lower end or the grounding end of which is of a shape cut by a plane vertical to said parallel element.
  • the word parallel element is intended to mean an element with substantially uniform cross section in form and area Comparing a spiked shoe of the present invention with a conventional spiked shoe having tapered spikes, resistance force to side slipping, which is necessary for running and will exist onthe grounding end of each through the length thereof, such as a circular cylinder element, a polygonal pillar element or the like.
  • spike in running is obtained in the former shoe by shorter penetration of spikes into a track.
  • spiked shoes of the present invention are used on a resilient rubbery track formed of macromolecular compound
  • pressure namely, reaction force exerting upwardly from the grounding face of each spike against the depressing pressure of the athletes 3 foot
  • pressure is putuniformlyon the whole bottom face or grounding face of each spike, so that each spike depresses and touches the track with temporally denting the surfacev thereof, and no spike marks are left thereon.
  • spiked shoes of the present invention are so comfortable for an athlete to wear that he can show his ability to the full in a race.
  • each spike comprises a parallel element defining the lower portion thereof and an enlarged element integrally extending upwardly from said parallel element, on the lower end of said enlarged element is provided a resistance face for checking unnecessarily deep penetration of the spike into a track. Therefore if a track is hard; spikes of said embodiment of the present invention never penetrate unnecessarily deep thereinto, and so, effective kicking action is not reduced and an extra energy is not required for pulling out the stuck spikes.
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing the front part of a spiked shoe according to the present invention, wherein the lower surface of the sole is seen being provided a. plural number of spikes in place;
  • FIGS. 2 and 3 are vertical sectional views each showing spikes in connectionwith shoe sole, wherein each spike is provided with a parallel element of circularcylinder shape;
  • FIG. 4 is a perspective view showing a spike having a parallel element of a square-pillar shape
  • FIG. 5 is a perspective view showing a spike having a parallel element of a hexagonal-pillar shape
  • FIG. 6 is a diagram showing the relation between the horizontal component of an athletes kicking force and a propelling force for driving him forward in a circula conical spike of the conventional type;
  • FIG. 7 is a diagram showing the relation between the horizontal component of an athletes kicking force and a propelling force for driving him forward in a pillarshaped spike of the present invention
  • FIG. 8 is a perspective view showing a spike of the present invention provided with a parallel element of circular-cylinder shape and an enlarged element of similarly circular-cylinder shape having a resistance face;
  • FIG. 9 is a vertical sectional view' showing the spike of FIG. 8;
  • FIG. 10 and FIG. 12 are perspective views showing modifications of the spike of FIG. 8'.
  • FIG. 11, FIG. 13 and FIG. 14 are elevational views showing other modifications of the spike of FIG. 8.
  • each spike 12 is vertically fixed through a supporting member 13 to the sole 10.
  • each spike 12 at least in the effective part thereof (the length of said effective part is shown by the designation E.L.), forms a circular-cylindrical parallel element 12A.
  • the upper end portion of said parallel element 12A is threaded by a plane vertical to the axis thereof, and therefore is substantially parallel with the ground when the shoe is used.
  • the above-mentioned supporting member 13 for connecting the spike 12 to the sole may be replaced by any other kind of suitable means.
  • a spike as shown in FIG.-3 is, on the upper end thereof, provided with an anchoring flange 12b formed integral with the spike, and the upper portion of the spike including said flange 12b is embedded in the sole 10.
  • a parallel element 12A of a spike is not limited to the above-mentioned circular-cylindrical one but may be shaped in a pillar with an elliptical, rectangular, polygonal or other cross section.
  • FIGS. 4 and 5 are shown parallel elements 112A, 212A with a rectangular or a hexagonal section respectively.
  • bottom face of a parallel element when used is not necessarily parallel with the ground but may be inclined relative thereto with a suitable angle.
  • FIGS. 6 and 7 illustrate a spike of the conventional type or of the present inventionrespectively, each penetrating into a track T formed of macromolecular compound when the athlete is running.
  • a spike of the present invention only temporally dents the track surface while the conventional spike is stuck into the track and leaves marks thereon foreover.
  • FIGS. 8- 12 illustrate the other embodiments of the present invention, wherein a spike is connected to the sole in the same manner as in the above-mentioned embodiment.
