Abstract
A last includes a base part including a bottom and a plurality of additional parts, each of which is formed in a plate shape and is capable of being assembled to the base part. The base part includes a mounting unit and a first forming surface. The plurality of additional parts include a second forming surface. Each additional part has an end face. The second forming surface includes the end face of each of the plurality of additional parts. The base part includes a first base member including a mounting unit and a second base member attachable to and detachable from the first base member.
Claims6
A last comprising:
- an upper forming surface configured to form an upper including a wearing opening;
- a base part that includes a bottom, the bottom having an upper surface and a lower surface, the lower surface being configured to define a bottom surface of the upper;
- and
- a plurality of additional parts, each of which is configured in a plate shape for assembly to the base part,
- wherein the base part further includes:
- a first base member that includes a mounting unit configured to mount the plurality of additional parts such that the plurality of additional parts are arranged in a multi-layered configuration along one direction;
- a second base member attachable to and detachable from the first base member;
- and
- a first forming surface that defines a first region of the upper forming surface, the plurality of additional parts includes a second forming surface defining a second region disposed at a location different from the first region in the upper forming surface while attached to the mounting unit, each of the additional parts has an end face,
- the second forming surface includes the end face of each of the plurality of additional parts, and
- the plurality of additional parts are separate from the bottom of the base part and extends in a downward direction to terminate at the upper surface of the bottom of the base part, such that the plurality of additional parts are spaced from the lower surface of the bottom of the base part and spaced from the bottom surface of the upper.
A last comprising:
- an upper forming surface configured to form an upper including a wearing opening;
- a base part that includes a bottom, the bottom having an upper surface and a lower surface, the lower surface being configured to define a bottom surface of the upper;
- and
- a plurality of additional parts, each of which is configured in a plate shape for assembly to the base part,
- wherein the base part further includes:
- a first base member that includes a mounting unit configured to mount the plurality of additional parts such that the plurality of additional parts are arranged in a multi-layered configuration along one direction;
- a second base member attachable to and detachable from the first base member;
- and
- a first forming surface that defines a first region of the upper forming surface,
- the plurality of additional parts includes a second forming surface defining a second region disposed at a location different from the first region in the upper forming surface while attached to the mounting unit,
- each of the additional parts has an end face,
- the second forming surface includes the end face of each of the plurality of additional parts,
- the first forming surface includes a wearing opening forming unit configured to form the wearing opening,
- the mounting unit includes a front mounting unit located in front of the wearing opening forming unit,
- the first base member includes the front mounting unit, each of the additional parts configured to attach to the front mounting unit includes a bottom end face,
- the bottom end face of each of the plurality of additional parts attached to the front mounting unit defines a bottom surface of the upper together with the bottom of the base part,
- the second base member includes a rear mounting unit configured to mount a second plurality of additional parts behind the first base member, each of the second plurality of additional parts being configured in a plate shape for assembly to the second base member in a multi-layered configuration along one direction, and
- the second plurality of additional parts are separate from the bottom of the base part and extends in a downward direction to terminate at the upper surface of the bottom of the base part, such that the second plurality of additional parts are spaced from the lower surface of the bottom of the base part and spaced from the bottom surface of the upper.
