  • Patent number: 11963576
    Abstract: A sole structure for a shoe includes an upper wall portion disposed on the upper side, a lower wall portion disposed below and away from the upper wall portion, and a sidewall portion that is disposed between the upper wall portion and the lower wall portion and that is elastically deformable in the vertical direction. The upper and lower wall portions and the sidewall portion are formed of resin-made wall-shaped members. A three-dimensional elastic fiber structure formed of resin fibers is provided in the interior region between the upper wall portion and the lower wall portion. The interior region includes a hollow portion that is in contact with the three-dimensional elastic fiber structure via a partition wall formed of a resin-made wall-shaped member.

  • Publication number: 20100229307
    Abstract: Considering a case where a patient with whiplash syndrome can sleep safely, it is when the patient is sleeping at an appropriate orientation, whereby if a pillow enabling sleep while maintaining an appropriate orientation exists, a sick person can sleep peacefully, and furthermore, the pillow may be useful in treating the whiplash syndrome. A pillow enabling the patient with whiplash syndrome to sleep peacefully is thus developed. A pillow 1 of the present invention has a deformable pillow body 2 including an upper surface cloth 21 and a lower surface cloth 22 having an edge cloth 23 as a boundary, formed with a head depression part 4 including a bottom surface 41 at a position depressed from the upper surface cloth 21 to the lower surface cloth 22 of the pillow body 2, and a groove part 6 extending from the head depression part 4 to the edge cloth 23 of the pillow body 2 and being formed by joining the upper surface cloth 21 to the lower surface cloth 22.
