EMBODIMENTS

[0038] In order to enable a person skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of the utility model, the following is a further detailed description of the utility model in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

Embodiment 1

[0039] As shown in FIG. 1, this embodiment discloses a support structure for the sole of a shoe, including a flexible support piece 1, which is provided at the forefoot position (Q in FIG. 1) or the arch position (Z in FIG. 1) of the sole, or at both the forefoot and the arch position, and which is arranged along the width direction of the sole (X in FIG. 1).

[0040] In this embodiment, the support piece 1 is provided with a number of raised curved sections 2 that can undergo elastic deformation under force along the width direction of the sole.

[0041] The number of raised arc sections 2 can be set one or more. As in FIG. 2, the support piece 1 is flanked by raised arcuate sections 2 along the width direction of the sole, with a flat surface 3 in the middle. In FIG. 3, the support piece 1 is a raised curved section 2 along the width of the sole on the inner side, and a flat surface 3 in the middle and outer side. When the shoe is a left-footed shoe, the width direction of the sole is on the inner side of the right side, and when the shoe is a right-footed shoe, the width direction of the sole is on the inner side of the left side. The overall of the support sheet 1 in FIG. 4 is a raised arcuate section 2 along the width direction of the sole. In FIG. 5, the middle of the support piece 1 along the width direction of the sole is a raised arc section 2, and the sides are flat 3.

[0042] The support piece 1 may comprise one or two pieces. As shown in FIG. 6, the two support pieces 1 are distributed on both sides of the metatarsophalangeal joint line g, which does not affect the bending stiffness at the metatarsophalangeal joint.

[0043] The material of the support sheet 1 is carbon fiber plate or TPU plate. There are different kinds of hardness of carbon fiber plate, in order to make the carbon fiber plate of this application more elastic, the hardness of carbon fiber?0.261 Nm/deg is used. Carbon fiber plate material is more sensitive to force perception and faster response to deformation. Therefore, the use of this material can effectively solve the problem of slow energy return rate of existing materials and structures, so that the jumping action has been completed, but the absorbed energy is not fully released.

Embodiment 2

[0044] This embodiment discloses a support structure for a shoe sole, including a support piece 1 having elasticity, the support piece 1 is provided at the forefoot position of the shoe sole, and it is laid out along the width direction of the shoe sole, and it is provided with a number of under-concave arc-shaped sections 4 that can undergo elastic deformation by force along the width direction of the shoe sole.

[0045] As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the middle of the support piece 1 in this embodiment is a recessed arcuate section 4 along the width direction of the sole of the shoe, and the sides are flat 3.

Embodiment 3

[0046] As shown in FIG. 9, this embodiment discloses a support structure for a shoe sole, comprising a number of support sheets 1 having elasticity and a support plate 5 fixed to the lower or upper surface of the support sheet 1. In FIG. 10, the support plate 5 is fixed to the lower surface of the support piece 1. In FIG. 11, the support plate 5 is fixed to the upper surface of the support plate 1, the support plate 5 is set to make the stability better when stepping on the movement.

Embodiment 4

[0047] As shown in FIG. 12, this embodiment discloses a support structure for a shoe sole, comprising a support sheet 1 having resilience and a support plate 5 disposed below the support sheet 1, the support plate 5 having a hardness greater than the hardness of the support sheet 1. The support plate 5 is laid out along the length of the sole, and the support plate 5 is filled with sole material (such as EVA material) between the support plate 5 and the support piece 1. The EVA material is filled to maintain the structure in a stable state during the work process, while carrying out secondary cushioning and energy return.

Embodiment 5

[0048] This embodiment discloses a shoe sole comprising the support structure of Embodiment 1. The sole support structure is bonded or integrated into the upper surface of the shoe midsole 6.

[0049] As shown in FIG. 13, the space between the support plate 1 and the shoe midsole 6 is hollowed out. The support sheet 1 is a carbon fiber plate, and the two sides of the carbon fiber plate have different bending degrees, the upper surface downward bending degree is a, and the lower surface upward bending degree is b, then a>b. The carbon fiber plate is installed in the correct direction, making it easier to bend downward, which is conducive to absorbing impact and increasing the effect of shock absorption and energy return.

[0050] As shown in FIGS. 13 and 14, when the metatarsophalangeal joint is plantarflexed, the support piece is bent by the force F, and energy is stored in the support piece 1, which has a greater tendency of deformation recovery (rebound force F), which facilitates the release of energy from the support piece 1. At the same time, the metatarsophalangeal joint receives less resistance when doing plantarflexion, and good plantarflexion can provide a stable working environment for the ankle joint, which is conducive to improving longitudinal jump performance.

Embodiment 6

[0051] This embodiment discloses a shoe sole comprising the support structure of Embodiment 1. The support plate 1 is bonded or integrally formed above the shoe midsole in a direction where the downward bend is greater than the upward bend, or is bonded or integrally formed between the shoe midsole and the shoe outsole, or is embedded inside the shoe midsole.

[0052] As shown in FIG. 15, the shoe midsole 6 is provided with a bottom convexity 7 corresponding to the position of the raised arcuate section of the support piece 1. The raised arcuate section of the support piece 1 is supported by the fitting of the sole convex 7. The bottom convex 7 is made of EVA material with a resilience of 55-70%, i.e. the bottom convex is a high resilient EVA material, and the high resilient bottom convex can facilitate the elastic deformation of the support piece.

Embodiment 7

[0053] This embodiment discloses a shoe sole, including the support structure of Embodiment 2. The support structure is bonded or integrally formed on the upper surface of the shoe midsole, or bonded or integrally formed between the shoe midsole and the shoe outsole, or embedded inside the shoe midsole.

[0054] As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the shoe midsole 6 is provided with a recess 8 corresponding to the position of the recessed arcuate section of the support piece 1. The midsole of the shoe in the recessed area is selected to be made of a highly resilient EVA material with a resilience rate of 55-70%.

Embodiment 8

[0055] This embodiment discloses a shoe sole comprising the support structure of embodiment three or embodiment four.

[0056] As shown in FIG. 16, the support plate 5 is laid out along the length of the sole, the support piece 1 is set two pieces along the width of the sole, the support piece 1 is located on the support plate 5, and the support plate 5 is hollowed out between the support plate 5 and the support piece 1 (shown in FIG. 10), or the support plate 5 is filled with sole material between the support piece 1 (shown in FIG. 12), such as a high resilient EVA material with a resilience rate of 55-70%.

Embodiment 9

[0057] This embodiment discloses an athletic shoe comprising the sole of any one of embodiments 5 to 8.

[0058] The above description is only a better specific implementation of the utility model, but the scope of protection of the utility model is not limited to this, any changes or replacements that can be easily thought of by a person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the utility model shall be covered by the scope of protection of the utility model.
