Definitions
- the present invention relates to a midsole having a laminated structure.
- the forefoot is generally thin.
- the forefoot is large and repeatedly bent at the MP joint and the like. In the portion where this bending is repeated, the midsole eventually exhibits permanent deformation. In particular, the permanent deformation tends to occur in the upper layer of the forefoot part.
- the midfoot supports the arch of the foot. This arch varies greatly between individuals. A wearer with a low arch tends to feel the arch being pushed up, while a wearer with a high arch may sag.
- a layered midsole is more likely to perform different functions than a single layered structure.

- the midsole is often formed from a foam with a rich repulsive force.
- the foams having different hardnesses are used.
- an object of the present invention is to improve the function of the midsole by disposing a low-rebound foam in a wide area.
- the midsole of the present invention in the first aspect, A midsole disposed on an outsole having a ground plane,
- the midsole has an upper layer and a lower layer,
- One of the upper layer or the lower layer includes a layer of a first foam containing a thermoplastic resin component,
- One or more of the most of the planar area of the front foot, the majority of the planar area of the middle foot, or the majority of the planar area of the hind foot in the other of the upper layer and the lower layer is a thermoplastic resin component.
- Including a second foam layer comprising The second foam has a specific gravity greater than that of the first foam, and is formed of a low resilience material that has a low speed of being restored to its original shape after being deformed.
- the relationship between the Asker C hardness Lc of the second foam S and the Asker C hardness Nc of the first foam N is set in the following formula (1): Lc ⁇ Nc + 10 (1).
- a midsole disposed on an outsole having a ground plane The midsole has an upper layer and a lower layer, The lower layer includes a first foam layer comprising a thermoplastic resin component; In the second foam, one or more of the most of the flat region of the front foot, the most of the flat region of the middle foot, or the most of the flat region of the hind foot in the upper layer contains a thermoplastic resin component. Including layers, The second foam has a specific gravity greater than that of the first foam, and is formed of a low resilience material that has a low speed of being restored to its original shape after being deformed.
- the relationship between the Asker C hardness Lc of the second foam and the Asker C hardness Nc of the first foam N is set in the following formula (1): Lc ⁇ Nc + 10 (1).
- the low-repulsion second foam having a large specific gravity has a larger distance between the bubbles than the distance between the bubbles in the first foam. Therefore, buckling is unlikely to occur, and the increase in load and the increase in strain are likely to be proportional. That is, the second foam has a large specific gravity but a strong linearity of deformation. Accordingly, the second foam can be a foam having a relatively low hardness.
- the first foam having a small specific gravity has a smaller distance between the bubbles than that of the second foam. Therefore, although it exhibits linearity under a small load below a predetermined load, if the load above a predetermined load is applied, it is considered that the resin structure will buckle, and the stress at which the strain increases rapidly with a small load increase. Area exists. That is, the first foam has a small specific gravity but a strong nonlinearity. Therefore, it is preferable to use a foam having a relatively high hardness as the first foam.
- stacked both up and down becomes close to the property which piled up the mechanical (physical) property which both have. Therefore, the laminate has a load region exhibiting linearity larger than that of the first foam, and the weight does not increase so much.
- the second foam having low resilience has a low speed of restoring to its original shape after being deformed, and therefore generally has a low deformation speed when an external force is applied. Therefore, it is easy to absorb energy and an improvement in cushioning properties can be expected.
- the hardness of the second foam is smaller than that of the first foam
- the second foam that causes a delay in deformation is directly above the outsole, a part of the outsole is locally When a large frictional force is applied in the horizontal direction, the second foam undergoes large shear deformation (slip). Therefore, if the second foam is too thick, the road surface and the first foam are greatly displaced. Stability may be reduced.
- the lower layer is the first foam, such a decrease in stability will hardly occur even if the hardness of the second foam is small.
- the stability is unlikely to decrease, the thickness of the first foam can be sufficiently increased, and the cushioning property can be further increased.
- the relationship between the Asker C hardness Lc of the second foam and the Asker C hardness Nc of the first foam is Lc ⁇ Nc + 10 (1) set in the following equation (1).
- the reason for setting is that when the Asker C hardness Lc of the second foam, which is a low-rebound material, is 10 ° or more larger than the Asker C hardness Nc of the first foam N, the deformation of the low-resilience material is reduced. This is because it is considered that the impact cannot be sufficiently absorbed or the hardness Nc of the first foam becomes too small and the deformation of the first foam becomes too large, and the stability and buffering properties are lowered.

- the middle foot 5M is composed of a scaphoid bone, a cubic bone, and three wedge bones.
- the rear foot 5R is composed of a talus and a rib.
- the low resilience material forming the second foam S has a higher viscosity and a lower storage elastic modulus G ⁇ than the first foam N.
- the low-resilience material is defined as a foam having a specific gravity greater than that of the first foam N and a speed at which the material is restored to its original shape after being deformed.
- FIG. 14A shows an enlarged conceptual cross section of the second foam S
- FIG. 14B shows an enlarged conceptual cross section of the first foam N.
- the ratio of the bubble diameters Ds and Dn to the distances ⁇ s and ⁇ n between the bubbles As is expressed by the following equation (2), and the first foam N is more than the second foam S. Is bigger. Ds / ⁇ s ⁇ Dn / ⁇ n (2)

- the slenderness ratio R is equal to or greater than a certain value, the structure is buckled even by a stress below the elastic limit. Therefore, the second foam S and the first foam N of the present invention can also be defined by the size of the diameter of the bubble As with respect to the distance between the bubbles As, as in the equation (2).
- the second foam S of the upper layer 2 integrally includes an inner winding upper part 2M, an outer winding upper part 2L, an inner part SM, an outer part SL, and a central part SC. That is, the upper layer 2 is integrally connected from the inner winding upper part 2M to the outer winding upper part 2L.
- the second foam S of the upper layer 2 supports the inner back surface of the foot.
- the second foam S of the outer portion SL supports the back surface outside the foot.
- the inner volume upper part 2M supports the side surface of the inner side M of the foot. As the inner winding upper part 2M extends from the inner side part SM toward the edge of the inner side M, the inner winding upper part 2M has a larger thickness in the normal direction perpendicular to the upper surface of the first foam N.
- the outer winding upper part 2L supports the side surface of the outer side L of the foot. As the outer winding upper part 2L extends from the outer side SL toward the edge of the outer side L, the outer winding upper part 2L is thicker in the normal direction perpendicular to the upper surface of the first foam N.
- the upper layer 2 formed of the second foam S has an average thickness of the outer side L larger than an average thickness of the inner side M of the foot.
- the lower layer 3 formed of the first foam N has an average thickness of the inner side M larger than an average thickness of the outer side L of the foot.
- the “average thickness of the inner side M” refers to the average thickness of the inner portion of the foot inside and outside the center line
- the “average thickness of the outside L” refers to the portion outside the foot inner and outer center line.
- the “average thickness” can be calculated, for example, by dividing the projected area from the upper surface from the volume of the cut out portion in addition to the method of directly measuring the cross section.
- the central portion SC includes a center between the inner side M and the outer side L of the upper layer 2 of the second foam S, and is disposed between the inner side portion SM and the outer side portion SL.
- the central portion SC forms a tapered portion ST.
- the tapered portion ST is formed between the thick outer portion SL of the second foam S and the thin inner portion SM of the second foam S as the second foam S extends to the inner side M.
- the thickness of the body S changes thinly.
- the degree of change in the thickness of the tapered portion ST is greater than the degree of change in the thickness of the outer portion SL, and the thickness of the tapered portion ST.
- the degree of change is greater than the degree of change in the thickness of the inner part SM.
- the taper portion ST is disposed closer to the inside than the centers of the inner side M and the outer side L in at least a part of the cross section of the rear half portion 1Rr of the rear foot portion 1R. Therefore, the thick part of the second foam S extends inward from the center of the inner side M and the outer side L.
- the average thickness of the central portion SC including the tapered portion ST is larger than the average thickness of the thin inner portion SM of the second foam S in the rear foot portion 1R.

- the average thickness of the layer of the second foam S in the middle foot portion 1M in FIG. 4C is larger than the minimum thickness of the layer of the second foam S in the inner portion SM of the rear foot portion 1R in FIG. 4A. And it is smaller than the maximum thickness of the 2nd foam S of the said outside part SL of the said back leg part 1R.
- the average thickness of the second foam S is smaller in the midfoot part 1M in FIG. 4C than in the rear leg part 1R in FIGS. 4A and 4B, and in the forefoot in FIGS. 4D and 4E than in the midfoot part 1M. Part 1F is even smaller.

- Such a distribution of the thickness of the second foam S enhances the cushioning in the rear foot portion 1R. Moreover, when kicking out the forefoot 5F (FIG. 1), it will be possible to suppress the permanent deformation of the forefoot part 1F caused by the large bending of the midsole 1 repeatedly. Moreover, the increase in the weight of the midsole 1 by the 2nd foam S with large specific gravity is made small.
- the upper layer 2, the lower layer 3 and the outsole 4 are laminated by being bonded or welded together.
- the upper layer 2 and the lower layer 3 may be bonded to each other in the secondary molded product, or may be welded together when the primary molded product is secondarily molded.
- An insole (not shown) (not shown) is bonded on the midsole 1.
- a sock liner (insole) is mounted on the upper of the insole.
- FIG. 2A shows a compressive stress-strain curve of a foam (hereinafter referred to as “normal foam”) as a general midsole material.
- normal foam a foam
- LR foam low repulsion material
- the normal foam exhibits linearity in which compressive stress and strain are easily proportional to each other at the initial stage of deformation.
- the stress is about 0.1 MPa
- the strain increases remarkably with respect to a slight increase in compressive stress.
- each distance ⁇ n between the adjacent bubbles An with respect to the average diameter Dn of the bubbles An that is, the value of the diameter Dn (Dn / ⁇ n) with respect to the thickness ⁇ n of the micro resin structure Rn is shown in FIG. It is larger than that of the low repulsion material S (Ds / ⁇ s). Therefore, although it exhibits linearity under a small load below a predetermined value, it is considered that buckling occurs in the resin structure Rn when a load above a predetermined value is applied.
- FIG. There is a stress region where the strain increases rapidly. That is, normal form N has a small specific gravity and a strong non-linearity. Therefore, in order to make the buckling less likely to occur, the normal foam N is preferably a foam having a relatively high hardness.
- Each of the diameters Dn and Ds is an average value of a large number of bubbles An and As, and each of the distances ⁇ n and ⁇ s is an average value of the shortest distance between adjacent bubbles. It is.
- the low repulsion material S having a large specific gravity in FIG. 14A the distance ⁇ s between the bubbles As with respect to the diameter of the bubbles As, that is, the value (Ds / ⁇ s) of the average diameter Ds with respect to the minimum thickness ⁇ s of the micro resin structure Rs is normal. Smaller than that of the foam (Dn / ⁇ n). For this reason, the buckling is unlikely to occur, and when the load increases, the strain is likely to increase in proportion thereto. That is, the low repulsion material S has a large specific gravity and a strong linearity. For example, in the case of 40 ° in FIG.
- the low-rebound material exhibits linearity up to a stress range approximately twice that of normal foam N. Even if the compressive stress is larger than expected, there is no possibility that the strain increases rapidly. Therefore, even if the second foam is a foam having a relatively low hardness, the desired cushioning property is easily obtained.
- the low repulsion material has a large specific gravity. Therefore, if the entire midsole is formed of a low repulsion material, the sole becomes too heavy. Therefore, the present inventor has invented a midsole that is lightweight and excellent in cushioning properties and the like by laminating the normal foam and the low repulsion material.
- FIGS. 2B and 2C show compressive stress-strain diagrams of a laminate in which normal foams having different hardnesses (40 ° and 53 °) are laminated with each other.
- the solid lines in FIGS. 2B and 2C show compressive stress-strain diagrams of a laminate in which normal foams (53 °) and low repulsion materials (40 °) having different hardnesses are laminated.
- the homogenous laminate of normal foams indicated by the alternate long and short dash line in FIGS. 2B and 2C has a slightly improved linearity of compressive stress and strain compared to the normal foam of single hardness in FIG. 2A.
- the low-rebound material and the normal foam heterogeneous laminate shown by the solid lines in FIGS. 2B and 2C have greatly improved linearity compared to the homogeneous laminate.
- the linearity is improved even when the thickness ratio between the low-rebound material and the normal foam in FIG. 2B is 25%: 75%, but the linearity is improved when the thickness ratio is 75%: 25%. It can be seen that the linearity is significantly improved, the linearity is maintained until the stress value is about 0.3 MPa, and the linearity is remarkably improved as compared with a single low repulsion material.
- the part include a forefoot part including an MP joint that is repeatedly bent greatly during walking and running, and an outer part of a rear foot part to which a large 1st strike is applied.
- FIG. 5C shows Asker C hardness of the normal foam (first foam N) and the low resilience material (second foam S) of the five types of midsole 1.
- the test ex. A to D have a laminated structure, but Normal as a comparative example has a normal foam single layer structure like a general midsole.
- a plurality of subjects sequentially wear each shoe equipped with one of the five types of midsole 1, and with the accelerometer attached to each subject's lower leg, perform a drop drop test,
- the cushioning property of the forefoot in FIG. 5A and the cushioning property of the rear foot in FIG. 5B were measured by known frequency analysis.
- the amount of change ⁇ in the varus direction with respect to the leg of the lower leg was measured, and the peak value of the first strike in FIG. 6A was calculated.
- the amount of change ⁇ in the external rotation direction with respect to the leg of the lower leg was measured, and the peak value was calculated.
- the evaluation values are shown in each figure.
- the numerical value on the vertical axis in FIG. 6A indicates the peak value of the change amount ⁇ .
- the amount of change ⁇ is small, it can be evaluated that the impact of the first strike applied to the soles of the rear legs is small.
- the 1st peak of the amount of change ⁇ does not appear, and it is estimated that the impact of the 1st strike can be greatly buffered.
- test ex. In A and B, the same peak value is larger than that of the comparative example of normal foam.
- a low repulsion material S having an Asker C hardness of 35 ° is disposed on the upper layer 2 (FIG. 4A) of the rear foot 1R.
- the rate of deformation of the low repulsion material S decreases as the compressive stress increases. Therefore, when the hardness of the low repulsion material S is too small compared to the load, the buffer function of the low repulsion material S is not exhibited, and therefore, it is estimated that the peak value of the variation ⁇ is larger than that of the normal foam comparative example. Is done.
- the numerical value on the vertical axis in FIG. 6B indicates the peak value of the change amount ⁇ .
- the peak value of the change amount ⁇ is small, it can be evaluated that the foot is not easily warped or warped, and the stability is high.
- Test ex. C has a smaller peak value of the change amount ⁇ than the comparative example of the normal form. The reason for this is considered to be that the low repulsion material S of the upper layer 2 has a delay in deformation, and therefore it is difficult for internal warping and external warping to occur. Therefore, test ex. C is considered to be excellent in stability.
- test ex. D is the test ex. Despite using the same 45 ° low repulsion material as C, the peak value of the amount of change ⁇ is larger than that of the normal foam comparative example. Consider the reason.
- test ex While the normal form of the lower layer 3 of C is normally used at 55 °, the test ex. That of D is 65 °, which is harder than usual. Therefore, it is considered that the entire sole is felt hard for each subject, and the peak value of the amount of change ⁇ is increased. Therefore, if the wearer is a large athlete and has strong leg strength, test ex. Also in D, it is estimated that the peak value of the change amount ⁇ is small and the stability can be increased.
- the hardness of the low repulsion material 2 is preferably about 50 ° to 55 °.
- test ex. B is the test ex. Compared to D, the peak value of the amount of change ⁇ is slightly smaller. This is because test ex. B is test ex. It is presumed that the hardness of the low resilience material S of the upper layer 2 is smaller than that of D and the rigidity of the entire midsole is lowered, and therefore the hardness of the entire sole is close to that of a comparative example of normal foam.
- test ex. A is the test ex.
- the peak value of the change amount ⁇ is larger than B and D.
- the reason is that the test ex. This is probably because the hardness of the lower layer 3 of A is 55 °, which is normally used, and the hardness of the upper layer 2 is 35 °, and the rigidity of the entire midsole is too small for the subject.
- the peak value of the amount of change ⁇ may be small and stability may be improved.
- FIG. 8A to FIG. 8C show the deformation state of each virtual laminate when the boundary surface has different inclination states.
- the displacement of the maximum distortion generation position is small inward and outward, but when the tapered portion ST is provided in the stepped shape of FIG. 8B, the maximum distortion generation position. Large inward and outward displacement.

Abstract
Description
接地面を有するアウトソールの上に配置されるミッドソールであって、
前記ミッドソールは上層と下層とを有し、
前記上層又は下層のうちの一方が熱可塑性の樹脂成分を含む第1発泡体の層を包含し、
前記上層又は下層のうちの他方における前足部の平面領域の大半、中足部の平面領域の大半または後足部の平面領域の大半のうちの1又は2以上の部位が熱可塑性の樹脂成分を含む第2発泡体の層を包含し、
前記第2発泡体は前記第1発泡体よりも比重が大きく、かつ、変形した後に元の形状に復元する速度が小さい低反発材で形成され、
前記第2発泡体SのアスカーC硬度Lcと前記第1発泡体NのアスカーC硬度Ncとの関係が下記の(1)式に設定されている
Lc≦Nc+10…(1)。
接地面を有するアウトソールの上に配置されるミッドソールであって、
前記ミッドソールは上層と下層とを有し、
前記下層が熱可塑性の樹脂成分を含む第1発泡体の層を包含し、
前記上層における前足部の平面領域の大半、中足部の平面領域の大半または後足部の平面領域の大半のうちの1又は2以上の部位が熱可塑性の樹脂成分を含む第2発泡体の層を包含し、
前記第2発泡体は前記第1発泡体よりも比重が大きく、かつ、変形した後に元の形状に復元する速度が小さい低反発材で形成され、
前記第2発泡体のアスカーC硬度Lcと前記第1発泡体NのアスカーC硬度Ncとの関係が下記の(1)式に設定されている
Lc≦Nc+10…(1)。
Lc≦Nc+10…(1)。
このように、設定した理由は、低反発材である第2発泡体のアスカーC硬度Lcが第1発泡体NのアスカーC硬度Ncよりも10°以上大きいと、低反発材の変形が小さくなりすぎて衝撃を十分に吸収できなかったり、あるいは、第1発泡体の硬度Ncが小さくなりすぎて、第1発泡体の変形が大きくなりすぎ、安定性や緩衝性が低下すると考えられるからである。
軽量化の観点から、前記第2発泡体(低反発材)の比重は、好ましくは0.7以下であり、より好ましくは0.6以下であり、更に好ましくは0.55以下である。また、第2発泡体の比重の下限は、出来るだけ小さいことが好ましい。たとえば、第2発泡体の比重は、0.1以上が好ましく、より好ましくは0.2以上である。
軽量化の観点から、前記第1発泡体の比重は、好ましくは0.6以下であり、より好ましくは0.5以下であり、更に好ましくは0.4以下である。また、第1発泡体の比重の下限は、出来るだけ小さいことが好ましい。たとえば、第1発泡体の比重は、0.05以上が好ましく、より好ましくは0.15以上である。
以上の樹脂成分は、1種単独で又は2種以上を併用できる。
なお、大半とは各平面領域の半分以上という意味である。
前記後足部において前記第2発泡体の層は、足の内側の平均厚さよりも外側の平均厚さが大きく、かつ、
前記後足部において前記第1発泡体の層は、足の外側の平均厚さよりも内側の平均厚さが大きい。
前記後足部において前記上層の前記第2発泡体の層は、足の内側の平均厚さよりも外側の平均厚さが大きく、かつ、
前記後足部において前記下層の前記第1発泡体の層は、足の外側の平均厚さよりも内側の平均厚さが大きい。
しかも、1stストライクの大きな荷重は短時間に負荷される故、第2発泡体が低硬度でも変形の遅い第2発泡体の変形が大きくなりすぎるのを抑制して、足の支持の安定性が向上することが期待できる。
以上の効果は、第1および第2発泡体を上下のいずれに配置しても期待できる。
前記後足部の後半部において前記テーパ部の厚さの変化の度合が前記外側部の厚さの変化の度合よりも大きく、かつ、前記テーパ部の厚さの変化の度合が前記内側部の厚さの変化の度合よりも大きい。
これに対し、本態様では、互いに異なる機械的性質を持つ第1および第2発泡体を上下に積層し、かつ、内側から外側に延びるに従い徐々に厚さの変化するテーパ部が設けられている。そのため、前記違和感を感じることなく、内外で互いに特性の異なるミッドソールを形成することができる。
また、2つの発泡体はテーパ部だけではなく、内側および外側においても面で接合され得るから、接着ないし溶着の確実性も向上する。
したがって、前記テーパ部が中心よりも内側寄りに配置されていることで、前記1stストライクの衝撃を厚い低反発材で緩衝することができる。
前記中足部における前記第2発泡体の層の平均厚さは、前記後足部の内側部の第2発泡体の層の最小厚さよりも大きく、かつ、前記後足部の前記外側部の第2発泡体の最大厚さよりも小さい。
特に、中足部が後足部の外側部よりも薄いことで、低反発材の硬度が小さい場合でも、オーバープロネーションの抑制にも役立つだろう。
前記第2発泡体のアスカーC硬度が35°~60°に設定されている。
一方、第1発泡体の硬度がアスカーC硬度で65°を超えたり、第2発泡体の硬度がアスカーC硬度で60°を超えると、変形が小さくなりすぎて、クッション性が低下する。
図2Aにおいて、実線で示す低反発材は一点鎖線で示す第1発泡体(Normal foam)に比べ線形性が強い。したがって、低反発材は低硬度でも高硬度でも座屈することなく、急激に大きく変形するおそれがない。
前記第2発泡体の硬度が前記第1発泡体の硬度よりも小さい。
一方、第1発泡体は硬度が第2発泡体のそれよりも大きいことで、過度の変形防止や軽量化に役立つ。
一方、両発泡体の硬度差が15°よりも大きいと、両発泡体の応力―歪曲線の相違が多きくなり、荷重が負荷された際の、変形の挙動が不安定になり易いだろう。
前記第2発泡体の硬度がアスカーC硬度で35°~50°に設定され、
前記第1発泡体の前記アスカーC硬度の値が、第2発泡体の前記アスカーC硬度の値に比べ、8°~15°大きい。
前記第2発泡体の硬度がアスカーC硬度で43°~57°に設定され、
前記第2発泡体の硬度が前記第1発泡体の硬度よりも小さいか、あるいは、前記第1発泡体の硬度と同等である。
前記内巻上部が前記内側部から内側の縁に向かって延びるに従い前記内巻上部は前記第1発泡体の上面に直交する法線方向の厚さが大きい。
低反発の第2発泡体の硬度が小さい場合、第2発泡体は通常の第1発泡体よりも傷付き易く、そのため、第2発泡体が薄いと第2発泡体が使用に伴い劣化し、ひび割れや亀裂の生じるおそれがある。これに対し、これらの態様では前記内巻上部が厚く、ひび割れや亀裂の発生を防止し得る。
前記外巻上部が前記外側部から外側の縁に向かって延びるに従い前記外巻上部は前記第1発泡体の上面に直交する法線方向の厚さが大きい。
前記ミッドソールは上層と下層とを有し、
前記上層又は下層のうちの一方における前足部の平面領域の大半、中足部の平面領域の大半または後足部の平面領域の大半のうちの1又は2以上の部位が熱可塑性の樹脂成分を有する第発泡体の層を包含し、
前記上層又は下層のうちの他方における前記第1発泡体の層が配置された前足部の平面領域の大半、中足部の平面領域の大半または後足部の平面領域の大半のうちの1又は2以上の部位が熱可塑性の樹脂成分を有する第2発泡体の層を包含し、
前記第1発泡体と前記第2発泡体とは互いに機械的性質が異なり、
前記3つの領域のうちいずれか1つにおいて、前記第1発泡体の厚さが足の内側と外側とで異なっており、かつ、前記第1発泡体の厚さの異なっている前記領域において第2発泡体の厚さが足の裏側を支える内側部と外側部で異なっており、
前記上層2における内側部と外側部との間には、内側から外側に延びるに従い厚さの変化するテーパ部が設けられ、
前記テーパ部の厚さの変化の度合が前記内側部の厚さの変化の度合、あるいは、前記外側部の厚さの変化の度合いよりも大きい。
たとえば、後足5Rは外側に大きな1stストライクが負荷される。中足5Mは足のアーチを形成するが、アーチの高さの個人差が大きい。前足5Fはトウオフの際の母趾と小趾とで力の加え方が大きく異なる。
したがって、ソールも内外で互いに機械的性質の互いに異なる素材を採用するのが好ましい場合がある。
また、2つの発泡体はテーパ部だけでなく、内側および外側においても面で接合され得るから、接着ないし溶着の確実性も向上する。
前記後足部において前記第2発泡体の層は、足の内側の平均厚さよりも外側の平均厚さが大きく、かつ、
前記後足部において前記第1発泡体の層は、足の外側の平均厚さよりも内側の平均厚さが大きく、
前記第1発泡体は前記第2発泡体よりもアスカーC硬度が大きい。
前記中足部において前記第2発泡体の層は、足の内側の平均厚さよりも外側の平均厚さが大きく、かつ、
前記中足部において前記第1発泡体の層は、足の外側の平均厚さよりも内側の平均厚さが大きく、
前記第1発泡体は前記第2発泡体よりもアスカーC硬度が大きい。
前記内巻上部が前記内側部から内側の縁に向かって延びるに従い前記内巻上部は前記第2発泡体の上面に直交する法線方向の厚さが大きい。
この場合、内巻上部は足の内側面を支え、足の支持を安定させる。
前記外巻上部が前記外側部から外側の縁に向かって延びるに従い前記外巻上部は前記第2発泡体の上面に直交する法線方向の厚さが大きい。
この場合、外巻上部は足の外側面を支え、足の支持を安定させる。
図3Aに示すミッドソール1は、図4A~図4Eのように、アウトソール4の上に配置される。図3A、図4A~図4E、図9A、図12A~図12Fおよび図13A~図13Dにおいて、低反発材つまり第2発泡体Sの部位には網点が施され、第1発泡体Nの部位には太線と細線でハッチングが施されている。
なお、図4A~図4Eのアウトソール4は接地面4sを有する。
前記下層3は熱可塑性の樹脂成分を有する第1発泡体Nの層からなる。上層2は熱可塑性の樹脂成分を有する第2発泡体Sの層からなる。
図14Aおよび図14Bにおいて気泡As間の距離Δs,Δnに対する気泡の径Ds,Dnの比は、下記の(2)式で表されるように、第2発泡体Sよりも第1発泡体Nの方が大きい。
Ds/Δs<Dn/Δn…(2)
一方、前記第2発泡体Sのミッドソール1に対する厚さの比は、図4Dおよび図4Eの前足部1Fが、図4A~図4Cの後足部1Rおよび中足部1Mに比べ大きい。
また、前足5F(図1)を蹴り出す際にミッドソール1が繰り返し大きく屈曲することによる前足部1Fの永久変形の生じるのを抑制し得るだろう。また、比重の大きい第2発泡体Sによるミッドソール1の重量の増大を小さくする。
図14Bの前記ノーマルフォームNは気泡Anの平均径Dnに対する隣接する気泡An間の各距離Δnつまり、ミクロの樹脂組織Rnの肉厚Δnに対する前記径Dnの値(Dn/Δn)が、図14Aの低反発材Sのそれ(Ds/Δs)に比べ大きい。そのため、小さな所定以下の荷重下では、線形性を呈するものの、所定以上の荷重が負荷されると、前記樹脂組織Rnに座屈が生じると考えられ、図2Aのように、小さな荷重の増加で歪みが急激に増大する応力域が存在する。つまり、ノーマルフォームNは比重は小さく非線形性が強い。したがって、前記座屈を生じにくくするために、ノーマルフォームNは比較的高硬度の発泡体を用いるのが好ましい。
なお、計算には単純な重ね合わせの原理を用いた。
図3A、図4A~図4Eの構造を有するミッドソール1を5種類用意した。
前記5種類のミッドソール1のうちの1つを備えた各靴を複数の被験者(成人)が順次着用し、前記各被験者の下腿に加速度計を装着した状態で、落垂落下テストを行い、公知の周波数解析により、図5Aの前足のクッション性、図5Bの後足のクッション性を測定した。また、下腿の足に対する内反方向への角度の変化量βを測定し、図6Aの1stストライクのピーク値を算出した。更に、同テストにおいて下腿の足に対する外旋方向への角度の変化量γを測定し、そのピーク値を算出した。その評価値を各図に示す。
図6Aに示されているように、テストex.CおよびDでは変化量βの1stピークが表れておらず、1stストライクの衝撃を大きく緩衝し得ると推定される。一方、テストex.AおよびBでは同ピーク値がノーマルフォームの比較例のそれよりも大きい。
テストex.CおよびDは後足部1Rの上層2(図4A)にアスカーC硬度が45°の低反発材が配置されており、圧縮応力が増加しても線形性を保ちながら変形すると考えられる。かかる線形性を保った変形は低反発材Sの緩衝機能を発揮させる。そのため、テストex.CおよびDにおいては変化量βの明確な1stピークが表れなかったと推測される。
図6Bの縦軸の数値は前記変化量γのピーク値を示す。前記変化量γのピーク値が小さい場合、足の内反りや外反りが生じにくく、安定性が高いと評価し得る。
積層体の変形状態の推測を行うため、図7Bに示すように内外が均等で中央部が大きい分布荷重に対する変形状態の算出を行った。荷重は図7Aに示す10本の各弾性要素6に対して与え、算出されたひずみ値を用い、変形状態を推測した。
前記積層体1Vとして、図9AのCase1,図12A~図12FのCase11~13,Case21~23および図13A~図13DのCase14,15,24,25を想定した。
各Caseにおける上層および下層の厚さT(単位:mm)は、図9Aおよび図10A~図10Dに示すとおりである。
図9Cの各デジタル値は図11BのS0からの距離Pを示し、図9Cにおいて、二重丸はbest、一重丸はbetter、三角は従来と同等、Xは従来よりも劣ると判断した。
前記低反発材Sの硬度がアスカーC硬度で35°~50°に設定され、
前記ノーマルフォームNの前記アスカーC硬度の値が、低反発材Sの前記アスカーC硬度の値に比べ、10°~15°大きい場合、前記機能の向上が期待できる。
前記低反発材Sの硬度がアスカーC硬度で45°~55°に設定されている場合、前記機能の向上が期待できることが分かる。
前記低反発材Sの硬度がアスカーC硬度で43°~57°に設定され、
前記低反発材Sの硬度Lcが前記ノーマルフォームNの硬度Ncよりも小さいか、あるいは、前記ノーマルフォームNの硬度Ncと同等である場合であっても前記機能向上が期待できる。
前記ノーマルフォームNのアスカーC硬度で50°~65°に設定され、
前記低反発材SのアスカーC硬度で35°~50°に設定され、
前記ノーマルフォームNの前記アスカーC硬度の値が、低反発材Sの前記アスカーC硬度に比べ、5°~15°大きい場合にも前記機能の向上が期待できる。
前記ノーマルフォームNの硬度がアスカーC硬度で50°~60°に設定され、
前記低反発材Sの硬度がアスカーC硬度で40°~50°に設定され、
前記ノーマルフォームNの前記アスカーC硬度の値が低反発材Sの前記アスカーC硬度の値に比べ、5°~15°大きい場合には前記機能の更に大きな向上が期待できる。
図12DのCase21と図12FのCase23とを比較すると、図表中の評価から分かるように、上層2にノーマルフォームNを配置し、下層3に低反発材Sを配置した図12FのCase23と、これとは逆の配置である図12DのCase21とで、同等の評価が得られた。
図12BのCase12および図12CのCase13のように、低反発材Sの厚さが図10Aおよび図10Bの13mm~17mmであると、硬度の小さい低反発材Sは採用しにくいだろう。
その場合、厚さの好ましい範囲は、図9A、図9BのCase1の厚さ5mm~図12DのCase21の厚さ15mm程度と推測される。
図5Aの前足、図5Bの後足および図6Bの中足についての結果から、本低反発材Sは前記図3Aの前足部1F、中足部1M、後足部1Rのいずれか1以上に配置されていれば、当該部位における機能の向上が期待できることが分かる。
また、上層及び/又は下層に発泡体以外の緩衝要素、たとえば非発泡体のゲルやエアが充填された鞘様のポッズが含まれていてもよい。
また、上層の下面及び/又は下層の上面に溝が形成されてもよいし、ミッドソールの側面に上下に延びる溝が形成されていてもよい。
