Description

[Detailed description of the invention] <Industrial field of application> This invention relates to a sole pressure device that can be attached directly to the sole of the foot or to the tread of footwear, and pressurizes the arch of the foot while walking. is repeated.

<Conventional technology> Conventional shoes of this type involve bonding a pressure material at a certain height to the arch of the sole or padding, or raising the arch of the sandal.

<The problem that the invention aims to solve> The health method of applying pressure to the arch of the foot is thought to have originated from the ancient practice of stepping on green bamboo. Therefore, just like with shoulder lifts and pine surges, if you do it forcibly for a long time, it will have the opposite effect.

Those attached to conventional footwear can
Because it pressurizes the arch of the foot, it tends to cause excessive stinging.

From the above point of view, the inventor of the present invention was acutely aware of the need for a foot sole pressurizer that could be adjusted in height at any time, and took this as an issue.

<Means for solving the problem> The sole pressure device of this invention is a pressure device that is attached directly to the sole of the foot or to the tread of footwear, and repeatedly presses the arch of the foot while walking. It consists of two approximately rectangular flat plates made of a material that attracts each other by magnetic force, and when these are placed side by side, their adjacent longitudinal sides come into close contact with each other, and a pressurizing material. The pressure material is attached along the sole of the foot or the tread surface of the footwear, and the pressure material is attracted and held by the substrate, and when the surface of the pressure material is overlapped and attracted to the surface of the substrate, , the combined height of both will be the height that applies appropriate pressure to the arch of the foot, and by rotating them while maintaining the adhesion of the side edges of the substrate and pressure material to each other, move them both in the front-back direction of the foot. The sole pressurizing device is characterized in that, when the devices are placed side by side and their longitudinal sides are attracted to each other, the dimensions of the devices are such that when the two devices are placed side by side and their longitudinal sides are attracted to each other, the two devices come into light contact with each other and fit into the depression of the arch of the foot.

<Function> The sole pressurizing device of this invention has two main materials: a substrate and a pressurizing material, both of which are made of materials that attract each other by magnetic force.
For example, magnets and magnets, or magnets and iron. The magnet may be made of magnetic rubber or the like.

As the names of this substrate and pressure material indicate, the substrate is attached to the tread surface of footwear or the sole of the foot, and the pressure material rests on the substrate and presses the sole of the foot. When there is no need to apply pressure, the pressurizing materials are placed side by side in the front-back direction of the foot, so that the side edges of the substrate and the pressurizing materials are adjacent to each other and are attracted to each other.

Even if the substrate and the pressurizing material are stacked one on top of the other or placed side by side, they stick to each other and maintain their mutual arrangement, and will not come off due to external force caused by walking. No means are required to constrain both to the required arrangement.

If you walk with both of them stacked on top of each other, the pressurizing material presses the arch of your foot with an appropriate strength, and the pressurizing position will not deviate from the initially determined position.

If you walk with both feet side by side, the pressurizing material will sit in the recess of the arch of your foot and will not apply pressure, but the side edges will stick to the side edges of the board, so there is no risk of them slipping.

〈Example〉 Figures 1 and 2 show the simplest embodiment of this invention. Figure 1 shows the pressure material 2 stacked on the substrate 1, and Figure 2 shows the pressure material 2 placed side by side. show. In this case, both are permanent magnets. To attach this to footwear, adhesive may be applied to the bottom surface of the board 1, and to attach it to the sole of the foot, a string or belt may be attached to the board 1 and hung on the instep of the foot as shown in FIG.

In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the board 1 is placed on the mounting plate 3.
Glue the lower surface of the 3rd and 4th
As shown in the figure, the 5th and 6th
It is something that can be layered on top of something like this. Mounting plate 3
Fix one end of a flexible cover 4 made of a rubber plate, leather, plastic sheet, etc. to one end, press and join the hook-and-loop fastener 5 attached to the other end with the hook-and-loop fastener on the other end of the cover 4, and place it to cover the top surface. For example, even if the pressure member 2 is angular, the cover 4 allows it to softly contact the sole of the foot.

By making the mounting plate 3 made of a copper plate, its lower surface is adhered to the tread surface of the footwear, for example, on the insole, and it adapts to the irregularities of the tread surface while walking. The copper ions generated by the mounting plate also have a preventive effect on athlete's foot.

Furthermore, since the lines of magnetic force emitted from the substrate 1 and the pressurizing material 2 pass through the feet, health benefits can also be expected.

When changing from the state shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 to the state shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, or vice versa, in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. When the pressure material 2 is turned to the desired posture, only the upper edges of the side surfaces of the substrate 1 and the pressure material 2 are attracted to each other, and they rotate lightly like a butterfly.

FIGS. 8 and 9 show how the embodiment shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 is used. In FIG. 8, the mounting plate 3 shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 is bonded to the footwear tread surface, for example, the upper surface of the sole or the insole 6 at the position of the arch of the foot. In the case of Fig. 9, the mounting plate 3 is glued to the upper surface of the central part of the band 7, and the hook-and-loop fasteners attached to both ends of the band 7 are overlapped on the instep of the foot.
This is an example where it is attached to the foot.

Although a small number of embodiments have been described above, this invention can undergo various changes without changing its gist.
It goes without saying that it can be applied, such as designing the shape of the substrate and pressurizing material to fit the sole of the foot.
It is left up to the designer's imagination, such as using magnetic rubber.

<Effects of the invention> For the first time, this invention solved the problem of all conventional devices of this type, which required continuous pressure on the soles of the feet as long as they were worn, resulting in excessive stinging.

In this invented sole pressure device, both the substrate and the pressure material are made of materials that attract each other by magnetic force, and when they are stacked one on top of the other, the height is high enough to press the arch of the sole of the foot.
The dimensions are such that if placed side by side, they will fit lightly into the concavity of the arch of the foot, so while walking, you can press the arch of the foot or stop it by simply changing the placement of the pressurizing material to either on top of the board or to the side. became possible.

Since the arrangement of both is maintained only by the adsorption force, there is no need to add a restraining member, which simplifies the structure and minimizes the number of steps required to change the arrangement.

Since the adsorption magnetic force of the substrate and pressurizing material passes through the lines of magnetic force to the soles of the feet, the health benefits cannot be ignored.
