FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a multi-function insole according to the invention; -
FIG. 2 is a top view of the insole; -
FIG. 3 is a bottom view of the insole; -
FIG. 4 is a sectional view taken along line A-A ofFIG. 3 ; and -
FIG. 5 is a side elevation of the insole. - Referring to
FIGS. 1 to 4 , a multi-function ventilatedinsole 1 in accordance with the invention comprises the following components as discussed in detail below. - An
elastic airbag 2 is disposed on the heel of theinsole 1 and the saidelastic airbag 2 includes atop layer section 23, abottom layer section 24 and anair chamber 3 forming between thetop layer section 23 and thebottom layer section 24. Acheck valve 20 and anintegral inlet 10 are disposed on the rear of theelastic airbag 2 and both are communicated each other with theair chamber 3. Twooutlets 21 is formed on the front of theelastic airbag 2 and communicated with theair chamber 3. The saidtop layer section 23, abottom layer section 24,air chamber 3,check valve 20,inlet 10, and twooutlets 21 are integrally formed with theelastic airbag 2. Theair chamber 3 is formed of a flexible material the same as that of thetop layer section 23 but having a different hardness. For example, thetop layer section 23 has a hardness of 30-35, and thebottom layer section 24 has a hardness of 50-55 are formed as a dual density unit. - Two spaced
channels 11 each extend from theelastic airbag 2 to aplantar arch portion 4 of theinsole 1. Thechannel 11 includes a plurality ofvent holes 12 disposed from a front end to an intermediate portion, and a rear concealedtunnel 110 extending to communicate with one of twooutlets 21 to theair chamber 3 and thecheck valve 20. - An oval, flexible
main support 22 is disposed in theair chamber 3 and connected to thetop layer section 23 andbottom layer section 24. Two spaced flexibleauxiliary supports 25 are disposed in theair chamber 3 and connected to thetop layer section 23 and thebottom layer section 24 and formed on one side of the flexiblemain support 22 respectively. Themain support 22 and theauxiliary supports 25 are integrally formed. Themain support 22 and theauxiliary supports 25 are formed of a flexible material which has hardness less than that of thebottom layer section 24. - The ventilation effect of the invention will be described in detail below. The
elastic airbag 2 is compressed when a wearer's foot wearing the shoe puts the most pressure down on theinsole 1 in a stepping action of walking. And in turn, themain support 22 and theauxiliary supports 25 are flexibly compressed and the space of theair chamber 3 is reduced. The pressurized air within theair chamber 3 forces thecheck valve 20 to close. Also, this forms a mechanism that expels air from within theair chamber 3 to thevent holes 12 via theoutlet 21, thetunnels 110, and thechannels 11. As a result, foul air is expelled out of theinsole 1 via thevent holes 12. - The
elastic airbag 2 is expanded to return to its original shape when the person lifts his or her feet in a lifting action of walking. And in turn, both themain support 22 and the auxiliary supports 25 return to its original shape. The air pressure within theair chamber 3 decreases sharply. This means that the air pressure within theair chamber 3 is less than the atmospheric pressure. Further, this forms a mechanism that draws atmospheric air into theair chamber 3 via theinlet 10 of theopen check valve 20. At about the same time, air inside ofinsole 1 trapped is drawn into theair chamber 3 via the vent holes 12, thechannels 11, thetunnels 110, and theoutlet 21. As a result, theair chamber 3 returns to its original state. - Weight of the wearer can be sufficiently supported by both the
main support 22 and the auxiliary supports 25 return to its original shape. Thus, a ventilation effect to theinsole 1 is carried out by repeating the stepping and lifting actions of the foot in walking. As a result, breathability of the shoe greatly increases and unpleasant odors no longer exist. - A plurality of
recesses 13 are formed on top of a front portion of theinsole 1 corresponding to the toes of the foot of a wearer. Eachrecess 13 has aknob 14 on a central portion of its top. Acurve protrusion 15 is formed on the top of theinsole 1 proximate to therecesses 13. A heart shapedprotuberance 17 is formed on the top ofinsole 1 between the front ends of thechannels 11. Acavity 16 is formed on the top of theinsole 1 between theprotrusion 15 and theprotuberance 17. Thus, a wearer can feel a degree of comfort on the feet when wearing shoes incorporating the insole of the invention. - As shown in
FIG. 5 specifically, thebottom layer section 24 is formed as a part ofoutsole 5. It is envisaged by the invention that ventilation, shock absorbing, foot massaging, anti-slippery, and steadying walk are brought about to the feet while walking. - The invention further has the following advantages:
-
- 1. Shock absorbing to the feet is obtained due to the provision of the main support and the auxiliary supports by flexibly returning to its original shape after lifting the foot.
- 2. Check valve is provided on the heel so that fresh air can be drawn into the shoe and foul air can be expelled via outlet in the heel. As a result, ventilation is achieved.
- 3. In response to a wearer's foot stepping on the insole, the main support, the auxiliary supports, and the elastic airbag are compressed, pressure of air in the elastic airbag increases to close the check valve, and draw the air from the elastic airbag to the vent holes via the outlet, the tunnels, and the channels, thereby expelling the air. In response to the wearer's foot lifting the sole, the main support, the auxiliary supports, and the elastic airbag return to its original shape, draw atmospheric air into the elastic airbag via the check valve, and draw air above the insole into the elastic airbag via the vent holes, the channels, the tunnels, and the outlet. As a result, foot hygiene can be obtained by sufficiently ventilating the air inside of shoe.
- 4. The at least one recessed and raised portions from a front end to an intermediate portion of the insole can increase traction and comfort while walking in addition to the wearer's foot massaging.
- 5. The bottom layer section can be formed as a part of outsole. It is envisaged by the invention that ventilation that ventilation, shock absorbing, foot massaging, anti-slippery, and steadying walk are brought about to the feet while walking.
- While the invention has been described in terms of preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art will recognize that the invention can be practiced with modifications within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.
