Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to footwear most suitable for drivers, particularly drivers for long-distance trucks and buses.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, drivers who drive long distances have usually used athletic shoes or sandals that are light and easy to put on and take off. However, athletic shoes have the drawback that their legs may become loose during long-distance driving, and that the thick soles make it difficult to feel the feel of pedals such as brakes and clutches.

Further, long-distance drivers often wear the sports shoes like slippers by stepping on the heels of the sports shoes to prevent the legs from slipping during driving. Such a way of wearing is very dangerous in driving because it is easy to make mistakes in the operation of the accelerator, brake and clutch. The same applies to sandals.

Most commercially available footwear for drivers pursues fashionability, and no suitable footwear for long-distance drivers can be found.

[0005]

The problem to be solved by the present invention is that the driver, especially a long-distance driver, does not lose his or her legs even when worn for a long time, does not hinder pedal operation, and is removable. It's about making it easy.

[0006]

The feature of the present invention is that the instep part is divided into the toe side and the heel side, and the toe side instep part has a ventilation part, and the rear upper end part of the heel side instep part is The heel introduction piece is projected, and the thin and hard toe side sole is formed so as not to project outward from the joint of the toe side instep, and the left and right sides of the heel side sole are the heel side instep There is a footrest projecting outward from the joint of the parts.

[0007]

[Function] Since the upper part is separated into the toe side and the heel side, it is easy to wear. Moisture emitted from the foot radiates from the ventilation portion formed on the toe side instep, so that the foot does not get loose.

Since the toe side shoe sole is hard and thin, it is easy to grasp the feel of the pedal, and since it does not project outward from the joint of the toe side instep, pedal operation is not hindered.

In wearing, since the heel is guided by the heel introducing piece projecting from the upper end of the heel side instep, the user can easily wear it without using hands. Further, when taking off, one of the footrests protruding to the left and right of the heel side shoe sole can be easily taken off by hooking the other footrest.

1 to 4 show a pair of left and right representative driver's footwear on the right side.

Reference numeral 1 denotes a toe-side upper part, which is composed of two front and rear upper pieces 2 and 2'which are appropriately spaced from each other and a connecting piece 3 which connects and reinforces the two upper pieces 2 and 2 '. ing. Ventilation portions 4 are formed between the front and rear upper pieces 2 and 2 ′ and in the front portion of the front upper piece 2. Reference numeral 5 denotes a toe introduction piece, which is integrally curved and protrudes rearward from the rear instep piece 2 '.

Reference numeral 6 denotes a heel side instep portion which is provided apart from the toe side instep portion 1, and a tongue-like heel introducing piece 7 is integrally provided on the upper rear end portion thereof so as to be convexly curved forward. There is. Like the toe introduction piece 5, the heel introduction piece 7 is provided so as to be easily worn without using a hand, and therefore the shape is not limited to the illustrated embodiment and can be arbitrarily selected. However, if the heel-introducing piece 7 is too long, the footwear may be caught on the floor of the automobile during driving, so the length is appropriately selected.

Reference numeral 8 is a shoe sole, and its toe side shoe sole 9 does not project outward from the joint portion 10 of the toe side instep portion 1 so as not to hinder pedal operations such as an accelerator, a brake and a clutch. Is formed.

Reference numeral 11 denotes a heel side sole formed integrally with the toe side sole 9, and the left and right sides thereof project outward from the joint portion 12 of the heel side instep portion 6 to form a footrest portion 13. . By hooking the other footrest portion to the footrest portion 13, the footwear can be easily taken off.

The toe side shoe sole 9 of the hard shoe sole 8 is formed to be particularly thin so that the feel of the pedal can be easily grasped, and a small unevenness is provided on the back surface to prevent slipping.

Reference numeral 14 denotes a sponge insole, on the surface of which small irregularities are provided to maintain air permeability. Insole 1
4 should be made slightly thicker to protect it from water and slightly cushioning. It should be noted that if the arch portion is made higher according to the shape of the arch, the wearing comfort will be improved.

The material of the footwear of the present invention is not particularly limited, but in the embodiment, the toe side instep 1 is made of a sponge having a synthetic resin sheet such as vinyl attached to the surface thereof. It is adhered to 9 with an adhesive. The heel side instep portion 6 is integrally formed with the shoe sole 8 with hard rubber.

However, the heel side instep portion 6 may be formed of the same material as the toe side instep portion 1 and joined to the heel side shoe sole 11 with an adhesive. In order to further improve the air permeability, it is preferable to sew both insteps 1 and 6 to the sole 7.

The heel side shoe sole 11 can be thinned like the toe side shoe sole 9 and raw rubber can be attached to the bottom portion thereof. The heel introducing piece 7 is formed as a separate member, and the heel side instep portion 6 is formed. May be attached or sewn to the inside or outside. Similarly, toe introduction piece 5
It is also possible to form a separate member and attach it to the upper piece 2 '.

FIG. 5 shows another embodiment. In this embodiment, a large number of through holes are formed in the toe side instep part 1 to form the ventilation part 4. Instead of penetrating the holes, the toe side instep portion 1 may be made of a mesh woven cloth to ensure air permeability. Also heel side instep 6
Unlike the above-mentioned embodiment, is formed of a member different from the shoe sole 8 and joined to the heel side sole 11. Reference numeral 15 is a stretchable reinforcing piece joined to both insteps 1 and 6, and also serves as a water shield.

For female drivers, the toe side instep 1
You can also attach shoelaces to it to enhance fashion.

The footwear of the present invention is not only suitable for drivers, but can also be used for carrying out luggage from indoors, for carrying in luggage when moving in and out frequently, for example, when moving. .

[0023]

EFFECTS OF THE INVENTION Since the ventilation part of the instep part on the toe side prevents moisture generated from the feet from diffusing, the feet do not get distorted even during long-time driving.

Further, since the toe side shoe sole is thin and hard, it is easy to grasp the feel of the pedal, and the joint portion of the toe side instep does not project outward, so there is no trouble in pedal operation.

Besides, the upper part is divided into front and rear,
Easy to put on because there is a heel-introducing piece, and easy to take off because a foot rest is provided on the heel side sole. If the toe-introducing piece is also provided on the toe-side instep portion as in the embodiment, it becomes easier to wear. Therefore, in the event of a car accident, you can take off your footwear without using your hands and you can quickly get out of the car.
