Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Industrial field of application) The present invention relates to a measuring device capable of easily and accurately selecting a ski shoe suitable for a foot.

(Prior Art) In skiing, the role played by ski shoes is important,
Therefore, when selecting ski shoes, first wear thick socks and put your feet in a compatible size of ski shoes, and do not feel cramped, have too much room, do not feel pressure, In reality, it is judged whether or not the movement of the foot is restrained or whether or not the comfort is good or bad, based on one's own feeling.

For that purpose, a plurality of ski shoes are put in, and a suitable ski shoe is selected based on the feeling of putting them in, so that it takes a considerable time to select from the plurality of ski shoes.

(Issues to be solved by the invention) Since ski boots are selected based on their own intuition and feeling, even if a person who has a lot of ski experience can select ski shoes that suit his or her own, beginners and skiers alike It is very difficult for a person who intends to do so to select a ski shoe which is suitable for skiing and is convenient for skiing.

When the ski shoes selected by one's own feeling in a stationary state are put into practical use, there is a tendency that the feet may become slippery in the ski shoes, and some pain may be felt.

(Means for Solving the Problem) The present invention is intended to measure the compatibility between a foot and a ski boot by using a pressure sensor and a measuring device and select an appropriate ski boot in a short time. Is.

That is, a plurality of pressure sensors are attached to a desired portion of a person's foot or inner shoes or socks or sock-shaped bags of ski shoes (hereinafter referred to as inner footwear), and the sensors are used as output readers and calculators. Ski shoes characterized by connecting to the device and indicator, putting the foot on the inner footwear, putting on the ski shoes and tightening them in a practical state with a buckle or other tightening tool to select an appropriate ski shoe that fits the foot It is a conformity measuring device.

(Operation) When the user puts his / her foot on the inner footwear having the above-mentioned structure and puts on the ski boot to tighten it, the sensor outputs how much the tightening pressure of the ski boot is applied to the pressure sensor mounting portion. This output is read by an output reader, an arithmetic unit, and a display, and the conformity between the ski boot and the foot is measured. In the measurement, the part where the output of the pressure sensor is strong indicates that the tightening pressure of the ski boot is high, while the part where the output of the pressure sensor is weak indicates that the tightening pressure is low. Ski shoes that are easy to use and have many low parts have too much space between their feet and the ski boots, so that non-conformity can be determined.

(Example) A pressure sensor 2, 2, ... at a desired portion of the inner footwear 1
・ (Strain gauge pressure sensor such as PS-SF and PS-A manufactured by Kyowa Denki Co., Ltd.) sealed with a tube containing liquid such as silicone oil, or strain-sensitive conductive rubber (for example, Samsung Belt Twodex PCH) etc. ”are attached. It is desirable that this attachment site corresponds to the center point of the tibia of the foot, the midfoot point of the calf, the upper part of the wedge, the medial malleolus, the lateral malleolus, the calcaneus, the lower part of the metatarsal, and the veins of the instep and shin. . The pressure sensor is connected to the output reader 3, the computing unit 4 and the display unit 5, the foot is put into the inner footwear 1 and the ski shoe 6 is put on and tightened with the tightening tool. The ski shoe 6 and the pressure sensor 2 of the inner footwear 1 are sensitive to each other and output. This output is measured by the output reader 3, the calculator 4, and the display 5.

The output readers may correspond one-to-one to the plurality of pressure sensors, or the plurality of pressure sensors may be connected to the output reader 3 via the channel switch 7.
Further, the output reader 3 and the arithmetic unit 4 may be housed in a single case.

(Effect of the device) This device can output the tightening pressure of the ski shoes for each wearing part and immediately measure the strength of the tightening by the pressure sensor attached to the inner footwear. You can select ski shoes that are comfortable to wear in a short time and accurately.
