Definitions
- Object of the present patent application is a modular article of footwear, and particularly an article with a removable heel.
- the present invention has been devised in order to freshly stimulate a field which relied on traditional solutions for a too long time, also from a commercial perspective.
- the traditional structure of an article of footwear consists of a bottom (or sole) and an overhanging upper.
- Such bottom is sometimes manufactured by moulding plastic materials, while in other cases the bottom is made of leather and it comprises a heel and possibly an outsole as well.
- the bottom being manufactured along with the upper has a monolithic structure, that is, none of the above-mentioned components thereof can be separated from the other components anymore (except that in a traumatic manner).
- the choice of replacing the heel initially mounted on the article of footwear according to the invention with a different heel could be connected to the user's choice to install a heel having a different shape, colour or outfit compared to the original heel.
- the replacement of the heel could also be an opportunity to change the typology of the article of footwear, switching it from a sandal to a substantially closed shoe and vice versa.
- a typical shoe is characterized in that it adopts a "closed" upper to embrace and contain the foot from the tip to the heel.
- a typical sandal or sabot is an article of footwear which adopts a half upper, that is an upper which can only contain the front portion of the user's foot.
- the front portion of the sole of the article of footwear according to the invention is provided to be a classical half upper (resembling that of a sandal or sabot) in any case.
- a heel without a heel-counter or a heel incorporating a heel-counter can be alternatively installed to the back of this front half portion of the above-mentioned sole (where, in the typical jargon of the footwear field, the term "heel-counter” denotes the portion of the upper embracing the heel).
- Figure 2 is an axonometric representation showing only the front portion of the sole as used in the above-mentioned article of footwear;
- Figures 3 and 4 are two axonometric representations showing two alternative versions of the heel intended to be mounted to the manufactured article of Figure 2;
- Figure 5 is an axonometric representation illustrating means used to carry out the above-mentioned quick connection of the front portion of the sole to the respective heel as illustrated in the previous figures;
- Figure 6 is an axonometric representation of an alternative constructive version of the present article of footwear
- Figure 7 is an axonometric representation of the article of footwear of Figure 6 showing the two components of the article of footwear in a detached arrangement;
- Figure 8 is an axonometric representation of the means used to quickly assemble the two components of Figure 7.
- the present article of footwear comprises a sole (1) consisting of two components (2, 3) which can be mutually and tightly assembled, of which the front one
- the second portion consists of a heel (3) adapted to be coupled to and detached from the above-mentioned front portion (2) through appropriate mutual coupling means.
- such mutual coupling means consist of a pin (4) axially projecting from the front edge of the heel (3), and a corresponding seat (5) formed at the rear edge of the above-mentioned front portion
- the above-mentioned mutual coupling means consist of two overlying tubular pins (40) horizontally projecting from the rear edge of the front portion (2) of the present sole (1), and two corresponding seats (50) formed at the front edge of the heel (3).
- each of the two pins (40) is provided to include, near the free end thereof, a ball (40a) partially projecting upwardly, said ball (40a) being subject to the action of an underlying spring (not shown in the accompanying figures).
- the same ball (40a) becomes perfectly aligned with the corresponding small hole (51a) formed in the sleeve (51); then, the pushing force generated by the corresponding spring makes the same ball (40a) to come out from the pin (40) and to be fittingly received within the same small hole (51a).
- the interference generated by the circumferential edge of such small hole (51a) all around the ball (40a) prevents the heel (3) and the front portion (2) of the sole (1) to be accidentally detached from each other. Indeed, the detachment thereof can be achieved only by applying a noticeable opening force such as the balls (40a) of the pins (40) can penetrate again said pins, under the great interference of the edges of the small holes (51a) of the respective sleeves (51).
- the ability to couple and detach the two components (2, 3) of the sole (1) as necessary allows the user to alternate heels of different shapes and colours with the article of footwear according to the invention.
- the heel (3) can incorporate a heel-counter (8) to embrace the user's foot at the area of his/her heel, as shown in Figure 4.
