DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0049] The invention can be implemented in numerous ways, including as a method; a process; an apparatus; a system; and/or a device. A detailed description of one or more embodiments of the invention is provided below along with accompanying figures that illustrate the principles of the invention. The invention is described in connection with such embodiments, but the invention is not limited to any embodiment. In the specification, the various implementations of the invention may be referred to as techniques or technical solutions. In general, the order of the steps of disclosed processes may be altered and one or more steps of disclosed processes may be omitted within the scope of the invention.

[0050] To further illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and its implementations, the specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in reference to the accompanying figures. Apparently, the drawings described below are only some embodiments of the invention, those of ordinary skill in the art, without creative efforts, can derive other embodiments and drawings of the present invention.

[0051] For simplicity, the figures only schematically show parts relevant to the present invention, they do not represent the actual structure of the present invention as a product. Furthermore, for simplicity and easy understanding, for components having the same structure or function in some of the figures, only one of which is schematically illustrates, or only one of which is labeled. In this context, a represents both only this one and more than one of.

[0052] In a first embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, a shoe rack unit, comprising: a body (not labeled), the body having a hollow chamber formed by winding stripe-shaped structure 110; the two ends of the hollow chamber are in communication with each other, and form opening (not labeled) for getting and putting away shoes.

[0053] It is worth noting that the shoe rack unit may be formed by winding one or more stripe-shaped structure, and the cross-section of the stripe-shaped structure may be, for example but not limited to, circular, polygonal, ring or oval shaped. The stripe-shaped structure may be made of, for example but not limited to, plastic, metal, or plastic-coated metal. The shoe rack unit may be formed as an integrally structure or formed by connecting a plurality of the hollow bodies. The winding the stripe-shaped structure may produce arc or wave shaped structure, resulting in a shoe rack unit that is unique and has personality.

[0054] In a second embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, described on the basis of the first embodiment, the stripe-shaped structure 110 is provided with a plurality of connecting members 120, the connecting member 120 is used to connect a plurality of shoe rack units 100, allowing the connected shoe rack units 100 to form an integral shoe rack structure (not labeled). The connecting member 120 is preferably a H-shaped card piece (not labeled) and a symmetrical card slots (not labeled) forming the H-shape of the card piece for securing the stripe-shaped structure 110. Connecting member 120 is preferably made of an elastomer, such as rubber. The cross section of the body is a triangle due to the stability of a triangle. In practice, in order to increase the tightness of the connection between the shoe rack units 100, a plurality of connecting member 120 may be provided to reinforce the connection between the shoe rack units, more preferably when the connecting member 120 is provided at the section of the stripe-shaped structure 110 placed below the shoes, the connecting member 120 can also prevent shoes from slipping.

[0055] In a third embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 2-6, a shoe rack, comprising: a shoe bracket 200 and a plurality of shoe rack unit 100, the shoe rack unit 100 stacked on top of the shoe bracket 200; the shoe bracket 200 includes a base plate 210, the two ends of the base plate extending upwardly to form a first plate 220 and a second plate 230; the extension ends of the first plate 220 and the second plate 230 extending upwardly to form a first support plate 240 and a second support plate 250.

[0056] In a fourth embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2-6, on the basis of the third embodiment, the stripe-shaped structure is a first magnetic member 110 (not labeled); the first support plate 240, and surfaces of the second support plate 250 are each provided with a second magnetic member 260. It should be noted that, when the shoe bracket 200 and the shoe rack unit 100 are both made of non-magnetic material, the shoe rack stability is achieved through the supportive force and frictional force between the shoe bracket 200 and the shoe rack unit 100; when the shoe bracket 200 and the shoe rack unit 100 are made of iron or other magnetic materials, the stability of the shoe rack is further achieved through the magnetic force between the shoe bracket 200 and the shoe rack unit 100. More preferably, the lower surface of the base plate 210 is provided with a counterweight 270, which further increases the stability of the shoe rack. The lower surface of the base plate 210 is provided with foot pads 200 for adjusting the height of the shoe bracket 280, in this way one can adjust the level of the entire shoe bracket higher or lower to meet actual needs.

[0057] In a fifth embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2-6, the cross-section of the opening of the shoe rack unit 100 is an isosceles triangle; longitudinal cross section of the shoe bracket 200 is an isosceles triangle (i.e., the base plate 210, the first plate 220, the first support plate 240 and the second support plate 250 form the isosceles triangle, and the first plate 220 forms the base of the isosceles triangle), because the shoe rack unit 100 and the shoe bracket 200 are used cooperatively, in order to ensure the stability of the shoe rack, the sum of the apex angle of the isosceles triangle formed by the shoe rack unit 100 the base angle formed by the isosceles triangle formed by the shoe bracket 200 equal to 90. When the apex angle of the shoe rack unit 100 is 40, the apex angle of the shoe bracket 200 is 20, when the apex angle of the shoe rack unit 100 touches the base angle of the shoe bracket 200, at this time, the shoe rack formed by the shoe rack unit 100 and the shoe bracket 200 is a straight prismatic shape.

[0058] In a six embodiment, as show in FIG. 6, described on the basis of the third, fourth and fifth embodiments, there are many possible ways for stacking the shoe rack unit 100 and the shoe bracket 200. The shoe rack unit 100 can be first stacked in a head-to-tail fashion and then stacked on top of the shoe bracket 200. The shoe rack unit 100 can be first stacked together in a tail-to-tail fashion and then stacked on top of the shoe bracket 200. Of course, there are a variety of possible ways for stacking the shoe rack bracket unit 100 and the shoe 200, we will not describe them all here.

[0059] It should be noted, the above embodiments can be freely combined as needed. The above are only preferred embodiments of the invention, it should be noted that those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the principles of the invention, can make various improvements and modifications, such modifications and modifications should be within the scope of the present invention.
