Description

  The present invention relates to a shoe as footwear.

  Conventionally, when using shoes such as men's shoes, a shoe spatula is generally used. The shoe spatula is applied to the inner surface of the shoe heel, and after inserting the toe side of the foot into the shoe, Insert the shoe along the shoe vera and put on the shoe. When taking off the shoe, hold the shoe with your hand or pull the buttocks with your finger.

  As described above, the conventional shoe has a problem that it is inconvenient and troublesome to attach and detach, and it takes time to attach and detach. Moreover, it is very troublesome to always carry a shoehorn. In addition, it is difficult for a person with a physical disability to attach and detach shoes because it is necessary to work with hands while bending the body. Furthermore, people who have a habit of taking off shoes indoors have to frequently put on and take off their shoes, so the above problem becomes even more pronounced.

The inventions of Patent Documents 1 and 2 exist to solve the problem of attaching / detaching shoes. These are provided with a guide piece that acts as a shoe spatula in the vicinity of the upper end of the shoelace part. Usually, the guide piece is folded and fixed to the outside of the shoelace part by a fixing means, and the guide piece is stored. When wearing shoes, the guide piece is fixed and the guide piece is in an upright state, and the heel is inserted along the guide piece and the shoe is put on.
Although it is not necessary to carry a shoe spatula, these are troublesome because the operation of the guide portion must be performed by hand when wearing shoes, and there is a problem that it cannot be attached and detached in a short time. Moreover, it is difficult for a person with a physical disability to attach and detach. Furthermore, since a part of the guide piece is exposed and stored outside the collar part, there is also a problem that the appearance is not good.

  Therefore, the present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and it is not necessary to use a shoe spatula or a hand, and it is possible to easily attach and detach shoes in a short time, and it is comfortable to wear and has a good appearance. The goal is to provide shoes that look good.

Hereinafter, means for achieving the above object will be described.
The shoe according to claim 1 of the present invention includes a leaf spring having one end attached to the inside of the shoe heel portion, and the leaf spring is separated from the shoe heel portion and tilted with respect to the shoe attachment portion when not in use. In use, as the foot is inserted into the shoe , it slides on the upper surface of the leaf spring (12) so as to be slidable in the vertical direction against the urging force of the leaf spring. The slide member (13) includes a sliding member (13) that moves above the leaf spring (12) when not in use and substantially overlaps the upper surface of the leaf spring (12) when not in use .

  According to this, when putting on shoes, first, it inserts from the toe of a foot like the conventional shoes. Next, the blade is inserted along the upper surface of the inclined leaf spring. At this time, the leaf spring acts as a shoe spatula that guides the heel to the shoe, and the leaf spring is pressed by the heel so that it comes close to the shoe heel portion against its urging force. When taking off shoes, push up the heel upward to remove the heel and then toe off. When the heel is pushed up, the leaf spring is restored to the inclined state when not in use (initial state) by the urging force. Here, the upper surface of the leaf spring refers to the surface that comes into contact with the heel of the foot, and the lower surface refers to the surface that is attached to the shoe, and the same applies to the case where the leaf spring is folded back. Yes (hereinafter the same).

  In this way, it is not necessary to use a shoehorn or a hand unlike conventional shoe attachment / detachment, and attachment / detachment can be performed easily and in a short time. Also, during use, the leaf spring moderately presses the heel with its urging force, so that the shoe adheres very well to the foot, and the leaf spring is housed in the shoe body, so the appearance of the shoe There is no loss.

In addition , if the slide member is slid above the leaf spring when the shoe is put on, the portion for guiding the insertion of the heel can be lengthened, so that the shoe can be put on more easily.

  Also, as the heel is inserted into the shoe, the leaf spring approaches the shoe heel portion, and the slide member also slides downward due to the force received from the heel, and when the shoe has been worn, the slide member Overlaps the upper surface of the leaf spring, and the slide member comes into contact with the flange. Thus, since the slide member is housed inside the shoe body, the slide member does not get in the way when the shoe is used, and the appearance of the shoe is not impaired. In addition, it does not take time and effort to house the slide member using a hand.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, the slide member includes guide portions for slidingly sliding on the upper surface of the leaf spring at the left and right ends thereof, the leaf spring including a long hole, and the slide member and the leaf spring or the shoe. It is characterized in that the inside of the collar portion is connected by a slide auxiliary member through a long hole.

According to this, by inserting the guide portion of the slide member on the upper surface of the plate spring, the slide member slides slidably on the upper surface of the plate spring. In addition, since the slide member and the inside of the leaf spring or the shoe heel portion are connected by the slide auxiliary member through the long hole, the sliding width of the slide member can be limited, and when removing the shoe, the leaf spring The slide member automatically slides above the upper surface of the leaf spring in conjunction with the restoration of the above.

The shoe according to claim 3 is characterized in that the leaf spring is folded back.

  According to this, it becomes possible to attach a leaf | plate spring to a suitable position in the range from the upper end inside a shoelace part to a lower end. The number of times the leaf spring is folded is not particularly limited.

  Among the present inventions, the shoe according to claim 1 can be attached and detached easily and in a short time without using a shoehorn or a hand. Moreover, people with physical disabilities can easily attach and detach. Further, when in use, the shoe guide part presses the shoe by the urging force of the leaf spring, so that the shoe is firmly attached to the foot. Therefore, it is very comfortable to wear, and the effect that it is difficult to take off the shoes during use is also obtained. Further, since the leaf spring is accommodated in the shoe at the time of use, the appearance of the shoe is not impaired.

Also, the ease of wearing is improved by providing the slide member. Further, when wearing shoes, the slide member slides downward as the heel is inserted, so that it does not take time and effort to manually slide the slide member. Moreover, since it is stored in the shoe so as to overlap the upper surface of the leaf spring at the time of use, the use is not disturbed and the appearance is not impaired.

Furthermore, according to the shoe of claim 2 , since the slide member automatically moves above the upper surface of the leaf spring when the shoe is taken off, it is not necessary to use a hand when attaching and detaching, and it is much easier. Shoes can be attached and detached.

Finally, according to the shoe of the third aspect , the leaf spring can be freely attached in the range from the upper end to the lower end inside the shoe heel part.
