Abstract: Disclosed is an method for automatically gumming a shoe for gumming a gumming target which is an upper surface of a shoe sole or a bottom surface of a shoe body on an automatically circulating path, comprises: guiding the gumming target into the automatically circulating path; by a shape retrieving device, retrieving a shape of the target on the automatically circulating path to obtain a retrieving result; by an applying device, applying a treating agent on the gumming target according to the retrieving result; grabbing the gumming target out of the automatically circulating path and then heating the gumming target; applying a gum on the gumming target according to the retrieving result; grabbing the target out of the automatically circulating path and then heating the gumming target again, thereby the quality and speed of gumming shoe can be enhanced.

Abstract: Disclosed is an automatic gumming system for automatically gumming an upper surface of a shoe sole or a bottom surface of a shoe body, comprises a conveying device, an data obtaining device, a treating agent applying device, a heating device, and a gumming device. The data obtaining device has an image retrieving member which is provided in a position corresponding to an image retrieving zone for the image retrieving member to scan a gumming surface of a gumming target to generate a gumming data. The treating agent applying device applies a treating agent on the gumming surface according to the gumming data. The heating device is provided in a position corresponding to a heating zone for heating the gumming surface. The gum applying device applies a gum on the gumming surface according to the gumming data, by which the quality and speed of gumming process can be enhanced.

Abstract: A convertible article includes: a torso bag having a hood detachably securable with the torso bag, with an inflatable pillow attached to the hood and inflated for cushioning a wearer's head; a leg bag detachably securable with the torso bag for forming a sleeping bag to be worn by the wearer for sleeping purpose; and a built-in carrying bag inherently formed in the leg bag, whereby upon inversion of the built-in carrying bag outwardly from the leg bag and folding and insertion of the remaining portion of the leg bag into the carrying bag, the carrying bag can be conveniently carried for storing the torso bag, the hood and other items into the carrying bag.
