Abstract
A shoe including a shoe body having an outsold and an upper fastened to the outsole; an insole formed as an air bag filled with air and mounted within the outsole; a pressure inductor connected to the insole to detect the pressure applied to the insole; a circuit board mounted in the insole and consisting of a pressure converter and a microprocessor, the pressure converter converting the pressure detected by the pressure inductor into a frequency signal to be processed by the microprocessor so that the microprocessor obtains a value corresponding to the pressure applied to the insole; and a liquid crystal display connected to the microprocessor to display the value obtained by the microprocessor.
Claims11
A shoe comprising:
- a shoe body having an outsole defining a receiving chamber, and an upper fastened to said outsole;
- an insole formed as an air bag filled with air;
- a pressure inductor connected to said insole to detect the pressure of the air imposed on the pressure inductor in response to pressure applied to said insole;
- a circuit board mounted in the receiving chamber of said insole, comprising a pressure converter and a microprocessor, said pressure converter converting the pressure detected by said pressure inductor into a frequency signal having a variable frequency representative of the detected pressure, the frequency signal processed by said microprocessor so that said microprocessor provides a value corresponding to the pressure of the air inside the insole;
- and
- a liquid crystal display connected to said microprocessor to display the value calculated by said microprocessor.
