Method for manufacturing shoe body and apparatus for utilizing the method

A method for manufacturing a shoe body, wherein the shoe body is a part of a shoe and is adapted to be combined with a sole to form the shoe;

• the shoe body has a vamp having a three-dimensional shape and a protective layer which is adhered to at least a part of a surface of the vamp;
• the protective layer is made of composite material which is different from a material of the vamp;
• the method is adapted to adhere the protective layer on the vamp, comprising steps of:
• A. preparing a tensile film and a composite material film, wherein the tensile film is extensible;
• B. overlapping the tensile film and the composite material film, and fixing at least two opposite lateral edges or two adjacent lateral edges of both the tensile film and the composite material film at the same time;
• C. moving the vamp to press the composite material film with at least part of the surface of the vamp, alternatively, moving the tensile film and the composite material film which are overlapped in step B to press at least part of the surface of the vamp with the composite material film, so that both of the tensile film and the composite material film have a predetermined tension;
• D. heating the composite material film in a contactless manner at a predetermined temperature for a predetermined time, so that the composite material film is joined to at least part of the surface of the vamp;
• and
• E. moving the tensile film away from the composite material film.
