Definitions
- This invention relates generally to wearable articles and methods for the manufacture of these articles. More particularly, aspects of this invention relate to articles of footwear, as well as methods of manufacturing these articles using rapid manufacturing technology.
- a midsole for an article of footwear may be manufactured using one of a number of commonly used molding techniques, such as injection molding, blow molding, compression molding, vacuum molding, and the like.
- molding techniques often require expensive molding equipment that allows little room for variation in the articles produced from the mold. For instance, any change to the design of the molded article generally would require the creation of a new mold.
- molding methods generally required a costly retooling anytime a change was made to the molded article design.
- molding processes often result in material waste as some material may be trimmed from the molded article in a post- manufacturing processing step.
- articles such as articles of footwear, have regions prone to wear, such as flex regions, high stress regions, etc. Early wear in these regions can cut short the useful life of the product while other areas of the product continue to be capable of functioning at a high level in the intended manner.
- aspects of this invention relate to articles, such as articles of footwear, that include reinforcing regions.
- the articles of footwear (or portions thereof) may be formed using conventional techniques and materials and/or the articles of footwear (or portions thereof) may be formed using rapid prototyping techniques.
- the reinforcing regions may be formed as a portion of the shoe during fabrication of the shoe or may be formed separately and connected to the shoe using known means of attachment, such as adhesives, stitching, mechanical fasteners, and the like.
- a midsole may include a plurality of apertures that correspond to projections on an insole.
- the midsole and insole combination provide additional impact attenuation and the arrangement of the apertures and projections may be customized based on the specifications, desires, etc. of the wearer.
- Figure 1 generally illustrates a side view of an example article of footwear formed according to this invention.
- Figure 2 is a side view of an example article of footwear having reinforced regions formed according to aspects of this invention.
- Figure 3 is a side view of another example article of footwear having reinforced regions formed according to aspects of this invention.
- Figure 4 is a side view of still another example article of footwear having reinforced regions formed according to aspects of this invention.
- Figure 5 is a side view of example article of footwear, portions of the article of footwear being formed from different materials according to aspects of this invention.
- Figures 6A and 6B are top and cross section views, respectively, of a midsole impact force attenuation system having corresponding apertures and projections and formed according to aspects of this invention.
- Figure 7 is an example airbag impact attenuating system formed according to aspects of this invention.
- top,” “bottom,” “front,” “back,” “rear,” “side,” and the like may be used in this specification to describe various example features and elements of the invention, these terms are used herein as a matter of convenience, e.g., based on the example orientations shown in the figures and/or the orientations in typical use. None in this specification should be construed as requiring a specific three dimensional or spatial orientation of structures in order to fall within the scope of this invention. Further, the invention will generally be described in accordance with an article of footwear and method of manufacturing an article of footwear. However, the invention may be used in production of a variety of articles.
- aspects of this invention relate to articles, such as footwear, watchbands, articles of apparel, athletic equipment, and the like.
- aspects of this invention relate to methods of manufacturing such articles. More detailed descriptions of aspects of this invention follow.
- One aspect of this invention relates to articles, such as articles of footwear.
- Such articles of footwear may include, for example, an upper and a sole structure engaged with the upper.
- the upper and/or sole structure may be formed using rapid manufacturing techniques, such as laser sintering, solid deposition modeling, stereolithography, and the like.
- the upper may include reinforcement portions configured to provide additional durability, wear resistance, etc., in areas of the upper that may be prone to tearing, wear, flex, and the like.
- the reinforcement portions may be formed of conventional materials and manufacturing processes, for instance, non-rapid manufacturing additive fabrication techniques, or they may be formed using one or more rapid manufacturing additive fabrication techniques.
- the reinforcement portions may be connected to the upper using known means of attachment, such as stitching, adhesives, and the like.
- portions of the rapid manufactured upper and/or sole structure of the article of footwear may be formed of different materials to provide different mechanical characteristics to different regions of the shoe.
- flexible regions may be formed of a first material having properties associated with flexibility to enable flexing of the shoe
- supportive regions such as an ankle region
- the various portions of the shoe may be formed in a single rapid manufacturing process.
- portions of the rapid manufactured upper and/or sole structure of the article of footwear may be formed from material fused with varying laser intensities in order to provide different mechanical characteristics to different regions of the shoe. For instance, regions in which greater hardness is desired, such as an eyelet region, may receive a higher intensity laser than regions in which flexibility is desired, such as the toe region.
- Laser radiation intensity may be varied, for example, by altering the laser power, the laser scanning speed, or the laser beam spot size.
- Another aspect of this invention relates to methods of manufacturing articles, such as footwear, and the like.
- Such methods of manufacturing articles of footwear include forming an upper, forming a sole structure and engaging the upper with the sole structure.
- an upper may be formed using a rapid manufacturing additive fabrication technique.
- a first portion of the upper may be formed of a first material and a second portion of the upper may be formed of a second material, different from the first material.
- the first and second portions may be formed in a single rapid manufacturing process.
- the first material and the second material may provide different mechanical characteristics to the different portions of the article of footwear.
- a first portion of the upper may be formed using a laser at a first laser intensity, while a second portion of the upper may be formed using a laser at a second laser intensity, the second laser intensity being different from the first laser intensity.
- laser intensity may be varied, for example, by altering the laser power, the laser scanning speed, or the laser beam spot size.
- the first and second laser intensities may provide different mechanical characteristics to the different portions of the article of footwear.
- Figure 1 generally illustrates an example article of footwear 100 formed according to aspects of the invention.
- the article of footwear 100 includes an upper 102 and a sole structure 104.
- footwear 100 may be divided into three general regions: a forefoot or toe region 111, a midfoot region 112, and a heel region 113, as illustrated in Figure 1.
- footwear 100 includes two sides: lateral side 114 and medial side (not shown).
- Lateral side 114 is positioned to extend along the lateral (outside) side of the foot and generally passes through each of regions 111-113.
- the medial side is positioned to extend along an opposite medial (inside) side of the foot and generally passes through each of regions 111-113.
- Regions 111-113 and medial and lateral sides are not intended to demarcate precise areas of footwear 100. Rather, regions 111-113 and medial and lateral sides are intended to represent general areas of footwear 100 that provide a frame of reference during the following discussion.
- upper 102 is secured to sole structure 104 and defines a cavity for receiving a foot. Access to the cavity is provided by an ankle opening 106 located in heel region 113.
- a lace 108 extends through various apertures in upper 102. Lace 108 may be utilized in a conventional manner to selectively increase a size of ankle opening 106 and to modify certain dimensions of upper 102, particularly girth, to accommodate feet with varying dimensions.
- Various materials are suitable for use in manufacturing a conventional upper. Those materials used in conventional uppers include leather, synthetic leather, rubber, textiles, and polymer foams, for example, that are stitched or adhesively bonded together.
- the specific materials utilized for upper 102 may be selected to impart wear-resistance, flexibility, air-permeability, moisture control, and comfort. In some conventional arrangements, different materials may be incorporated into different areas of upper 102 in order to impart specific properties to those areas. Furthermore, the materials may be layered in order to provide a combination of properties to specific areas.
- the upper 102 may be formed using a rapid manufacturing additive fabrication technique from suitable materials, such as a thermoplastic elastomer, and may include various reinforcements formed using conventional methods, as well as by using rapid manufacturing additive fabrication techniques, as will be discussed more fully below.
- Sole structure 104 is secured to a lower surface of upper 102 and includes an outsole 120 and a midsole 122.
- Outsole 120 forms a ground-engaging surface of sole structure 104 and is formed of a durable, wear-resistant material.
- Conventional sole structures may be formed of rubber that is textured to enhance traction.
- the outsole 120 and/or midsole 122 may be formed, using a rapid manufacturing additive fabrication technique, of a thermoplastic elastomer, as will be discussed more fully below.
- outsole 120 may be integrally formed with midsole 122 or may be a lower surface of midsole 122.
- Some conventional midsoles are primarily formed of a polymer foam material, such as polyurethane or ethylvinylacetate, that forms a foam core type impact force attenuation system in the midsole 122.
- Other conventional midsoles may include a column type midsole impact force attenuation system, such as the one shown in Figure 1. Additional midsole impact force attenuation types are available for use in conventional midsoles, including an air bag type impact force attenuation system.
- These various impact force attenuation systems including column type, foam core, air bag, and the like (or at least portions thereof), may also be manufactured using rapid manufacturing techniques and associated materials in accordance with aspects of this invention, as will be discussed more fully below.
- Conventional articles of footwear are generally formed from a variety of different types of materials and a variety of different manufacturing processes.
- the upper and sole structure are generally formed as separate pieces and then are joined in a post-manufacture processing step.
- a plurality of upper portions may be formed or cut, using conventional methods, and then are connected to each other.
- the upper portions may be connected by any known means such as stitching, adhesives, mechanical fasteners, and the like. This process often generates a substantial amount of waste associated with trimming each of the individual pieces of the upper to be the correct shape and size for that particular upper or portion of the upper.
- the articles of footwear, or portions thereof may be formed using rapid manufacturing additive fabrication techniques, such as laser sintering, stereolithography, solid deposition modeling, and the like.
- Rapid manufacturing fabrication techniques involve creating a three-dimensional design in a data file, such as a Computer Aided Design (CAD) file, and building the object of the three- dimensional design in an automated layer by layer process.
- CAD Computer Aided Design
- the fabrication equipment reads the three-dimensional design from the data file and lays down successive layers of powder, liquid or sheet material to build the three dimensional object. The layers are joined together by the fabrication equipment, for instance, a high powered laser may be used, to form the three dimensional object of the design.
- CAD Computer Aided Design
- Such rapid manufacturing techniques are generally known in the art.
- One particular process for forming articles that may be used in accordance with aspects described herein is laser sintering.
- This process involves creating a three- dimensional design in a data file, such as a CAD file.
- the laser sintering fabrication equipment reads the CAD file and forms the three-dimensional object of the design, such as an upper or portion of an upper for an article of footwear, using a high powered laser to fuse powders or small particles of plastic, metal or ceramic.
- the laser selectively fuses powdered material by scanning cross-sections generated from a CAD file or a scan of the part on the surface of a powder bed.
- FIG. 2 illustrates one example article of footwear 200 including reinforcement portions 202, 204.
- the article of footwear 200 generally includes an upper 206 forming a void for receiving a foot of a wearer.
- the shoe 200 includes a sole structure 208 that may include a midsole 210 and an outsole 212.
- the sole structure 208 may be formed using conventional methods, such as molding, etc.
- the sole structure 208 may be formed using one or more rapid manufacturing additive fabrication techniques. Forming the sole structure 208 using rapid manufacturing techniques may permit complex shapes to be formed, some of which may be impossible to form using conventional manufacturing techniques. Also, forming the sole structure 208 using rapid manufacturing techniques may better allow for customization of the sole structure 208, because the foot of a wearer may be scanned and the sole structure 208 may be manufactured based on the scan of the wearer's foot.
- a regional reinforcement structure such as reinforcement 204
- the toe region reinforcement 204 may be formed from conventional materials, such as textile, leather, and the like, or it may be formed using a rapid manufacturing additive fabrication technique and associated materials.
- Using a rapid manufacturing technique to form the reinforcement 204 may permit variations in the thickness of the reinforcement in various regions of the reinforcement. For instance, the reinforcement may be thinner at the rear of the toe region (i.e., closer to the midfoot region of the shoe) rather than at the front of the toe region to provide additional support at the front of the shoe.
- FIG. 4 illustrates yet another article of footwear 400 having a reinforced region 402.
- the upper 406 and sole structure 408 of the article of footwear 400 may be formed using conventional materials and conventional manufacturing techniques, or they may be formed using one or more rapid manufacturing additive fabrication techniques and associated materials.
- the collar region 402 of the article of footwear 400 is often a region that receives heavy wear and may be likely to tear, wear down, etc. Accordingly, reinforcement in the collar region 402 may prolong the usable life of the shoe 400.
- the upper 406 of an article of footwear 400 may be formed using one or more rapid manufacturing additive fabrication techniques.
- a collar reinforcement 404 may be formed separately (either from conventional materials and processes or rapid manufacturing materials and processes) and connected to the upper 406 to provide additional wear resistance. Additionally, because the collar region 402 may be an area that can rub and cause irritation on the wearer's skin, the collar reinforcement 404 also may include a soft foam, fabric, or other comfort-enhancing material.
- the collar reinforcement 404 may be attached to the upper 406 using known means of attachment including stitching, adhesives, mechanical fasteners, and the like. In some arrangements, the collar reinforcement 404 may include a snap fit mechanism that mates with a corresponding snap fit mechanism configured in the collar region 402 of the upper 406.
- resin may be brushed, painted, sprayed, etc. onto various regions of an article of footwear formed using rapid manufacturing techniques to provide additional aesthetic enhancement, as well as additional durability to regions of high wear and/or stress.
- the resin may be brushed onto the shoe after the shoe has been formed, as a post-fabrication processing step.
- the process may include resins of varying colors, etc. in order to enhance the appearance of the shoe while providing added durability to various regions of the shoe or to the entire shoe, as desired.
- Various resins that may be used and techniques for applying the resin are discussed more fully in U.S. Patent Application No. 12/255,496, entitled "Articles and Methods of Manufacture of Articles" to which this application claims priority and which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
- the article of footwear 500 in FIG. 5 may be formed using one or more rapid manufacturing additive fabrication techniques.
- the layer-by-layer process used to fabricate the shoe 500 may include different materials for different regions of the shoe 500. For instance, additional flexibility may be desired in a toe region 502 of the shoe 500, while additional stiffness may be desired in the lateral side 504 and medial side (not shown) of the upper 506 being formed. Materials providing these differing properties may be used in the same rapid manufacturing additive fabrication technique.
- a layer of the powder being fused may include a first material in one area or portion of the article and a second material, different from the first material, in another area or portion of the article.
- thermoplastic elastomer such as DuraForm Flex plastic manufactured and sold by 3D Systems, or other similar materials, such as manufactured by Advanced Laser Materials, LLC (e.g., ALM Flex) and Evonik Industries (e.g., Evonik Soft Touch), various powders, any generally plastic-like material, and the like.
- regions in which additional hardening would be desired such as the eyelet region (203 of FIG. 2), may be fused with a higher intensity laser than other regions of the shoe. This may aid in reinforcing the eyelet region of the article.
- Varying the intensity of the laser may permit further customization of the article of footwear. For instance, varying the intensity of the laser used in fabricating various regions of the shoe may alter the density, stiffness, etc. of the shoe such that the article being formed may be "tuned" to desired specifications. These specifications may be unique to one or more identified users. This arrangement provides the ability to alter the properties of the article for each shoe fabricated, if desired, without requiring costly molds to be manufactured in order to produce the articles.
- Figures 6A and 6B illustrate yet another arrangement of a portion of an article of footwear that may be formed using one or more rapid manufacturing additive fabrication techniques.
- Figure 6A illustrates a top view of a midsole 600 of an article of footwear.
- the midsole 600 generally includes a plurality of apertures 602 distributed throughout a top surface 604.
- the apertures 602 may extend through a portion of the midsole 600 or may extend completely through the midsole 600 from the top surface 604 to a bottom surface 606.
- Figure 6B is a cross section of the midsole 600 of FIG. 6A taken along line A-A.
- the figure illustrates one example in which the apertures 602 extend partially through the midsole 600.
- the midsole 600 may be formed using one or more rapid manufacturing additive fabrication techniques.
- apertures any number, shape, arrangement, size, etc. of apertures to be formed in the midsole 600. For instance, larger or smaller apertures may be formed, apertures of varying shapes including square, rectangular, triangular, trapezoidal, hexagonal, etc. may be formed, the pattern of apertures may vary depending on the region of the midsole, etc.
- Figure 6B further includes an insole member 610.
- the insole member 610 includes a base 612 and a plurality of projections 614.
- the projections 614 are formed of a shape and size to correspond to the apertures 602 formed in the midsole 600.
- the insole member 610 and projections 614 may provide additional impact attenuation, support, comfort, etc. for the wearer.
- the insole member 610 may be formed using a rapid manufacturing additive fabrication technique or by conventional techniques.
- the size, arrangement, etc. of the apertures 602 and corresponding projections 614 may be customized to a particular user. For instance, a scan of a wearer's foot may be taken and additional impact attenuation may be provided in various regions based on the results of the scan.
- a midsole may include an inflated airbag formed of conventional materials.
- the airbag may include an insert to aid in maintaining the desired shape of the airbag.
- the insert may be attached to the airbag at various locations in the bag interior to help control the shape of the airbag when it is inflated.
- the use of rapid manufacturing to fabricate the insert allows the insert to be customized to the needs and/or desires of the wearer, as well as to any desired size, shape, etc. in order to maintain the desired shape of the airbag.
- Figure 7 illustrates one example airbag 700 including an insert 702 formed using one or more rapid manufacturing additive fabrication techniques.
- the insert 702 may be sized, shaped, configured, etc. based on a user's desires, specifications based on features of a user's foot, etc.
- one or more structures arranged in the midsole to hold or fasten the airbag in place may be formed using one or more rapid manufacturing additive fabrication techniques.
- brackets, clips, grooves, frames, pockets, or other structures for securing the airbag that may be difficult or impossible to manufacture using conventional methods of manufacture may be formed using rapid manufacturing.
- various parts may be manufactured using rapid fabrication additive techniques inside of other parts formed from the same process.
- a small part may be manufactured inside a hollow cavity in a larger part to save time and materials. This process would be similar to Russian dolls with smaller dolls nesting inside larger ones.
- the CAD file created may include the design for the small part and the larger part and the part may be manufactured in one process.
- some articles manufactured using rapid fabrication additive techniques may be formed in a collapsed condition in order to conserve space. For instance, similar to a paper bag that is stored collapsed along various creases and fold lines, the articles may be formed using rapid manufacturing in a collapsed condition then expanded upon use.
- an article of footwear may be formed of a plurality of interlocking rings.
- the rings may vary in size in different regions of the article of footwear or may be the same size throughout.
- the rings may be formed in a collapsed condition. That is, the rings may be formed in a stacked formation to produce an article having a very compact shape.
- the rings may be expanded upon opening or expansion of the article to provide the article in an expanded and/or usable condition.
