Abstract
A shoe midsole has a sole plate, a plurality of blades integrally standing on the sole plate, a cover bonded to the circumference of the sole plate, and a fluid sealed between the sole plate and the cover. A first concave part in a shape equivalent to a sole of a foot is formed on the surface of the sole plate, on which the plurality of blades stand, wherein the plurality of blades are accommodated within the first concave part. The plurality of blades are aligned at a predetermined interval in a direction nearly orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the sole plate, and some of the plurality of blades are tilted toward the toe.
Claims16
A shoe midsole, comprising:
- a sole plate;
- a plurality of blades integrally standing on the sole plate, each blade of the plurality of blades having a base at the sole plate and a distal end opposite the base;
- a cover bonded to a circumference of the sole plate;
- a fluid liquid sealed between the sole plate and the cover, and
- a first concave part in a shape equivalent to the sole of the foot formed on a surface of the sole plate, on which the plurality of blades stand,
- wherein the plurality of blades are accommodated within the first concave part,
- wherein the plurality of blades are aligned at a predetermined interval in a direction nearly orthogonal to a longitudinal direction of the sole plate, and
- wherein at least some blades of the plurality of blades are tilted so that each one blade of said at least some blades stands with said one blade's distal end closer to a toe than said one blade's base, so as to suppress a movement of the liquid from a toe side to a heel side when the toe kicks the ground, and thereby reduce a pressure applied to the sole of the foot when toes of the foot kick the ground.
Footwear including a footwear midsole, placed on a footwear base, comprising:
- a sole plate;
- a plurality of blades integrally standing on the sole plate, each blade of the plurality of blades having a base at the sole plate and a distal end opposite the base;
- a cover bonded to an outer circumference of the sole plate, and
- a liquid scaled between the sole plate and the cover, and
- wherein a first concave part in a shape equivalent to a sole of a foot is formed on a surface of the sole plate, on which the plurality of blades stand,
- wherein the plurality of blades accommodated within the first concave part are aligned at a predetermined interval in a direction nearly orthogonal to a longitudinal direction of the sole plate, and
- wherein each one blade of at least some blades of the plurality of blades stands with said one blade's distal end closer to a toe than said one blade's base, so as to suppress a movement of the liquid from a toe side to a heel side when the toe kicks the ground, and thereby reduce a pressure applied to the sole of the foot when toes of the loot kick the ground.
A shoe midsole configured to reduce pressure applied to a sole of a foot of a wearer of the shoe midsole when toes of said loot kick the ground, comprising:
- a sole plate;
- a plurality of blades integrally standing on the sole plate, each blade of the plurality of blades having a base at the sole plate and a distal end opposite the base;
- a cover bonded to a circumference of the sole plate;
- a liquid sealed between the sole plate and the cover, and
- a first concave part in a shape equivalent to the sole of the foot formed on a surface of the sole plate, on which the plurality of blades stand,
- wherein the plurality or blades are accommodated within the first concave part,
- wherein the plurality of blades are aligned at a predetermined interval in a direction nearly orthogonal to a longitudinal direction of the sole plate, and
- wherein at least some blades of the plurality of blades arc tilted so that each one blade of said at least some blades stands with said one blade's distal end closer to a toe than said one blade's base, so as to suppress a movement of the liquid from a toe side to a heel side when the toe kicks the ground, and thereby provide cushioning with said liquid to reduce said pressure applied to the sole of the foot when the toes kick the ground.
