Patents by Inventor Ladan Salari-Sharif

Ladan Salari-Sharif has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Publication number: 20250089844
    Abstract: Soles for articles of footwear including a mechanically anisotropic three-dimensional mesh. The mechanically anisotropic three-dimensional mesh can include one or more mechanically anisotropic regions with a first lattice shear modulus measured in a first direction and a second lattice shear modulus measured in a second direction opposite to or orthogonal to the first direction. The first and second lattice shear moduli are different to provide the three-dimensional mesh with mechanically anisotropic properties. The mechanically anisotropic three-dimensional mesh can be three-dimensionally printed.

  • Publication number: 20250000206
    Abstract: An article of footwear may include a sole and an upper connected to the sole. The sole may include a first solid component and a second solid component. The sole may further include an additively manufactured mesh component that is arranged between the first solid component and the second solid component. The mesh component may be connected to each of the first solid component and the second solid component.

  • Publication number: 20240365922
    Abstract: Midsoles for articles of footwear are formed of a variety of three dimensional mesh lattices. The lattices can be populated by unit cells of various base geometries. Some base geometries are structures of struts and nodes that approximate the overall shape of an implicit surface. Some base geometries are structures of struts and nodes that include struts having at least two different effective diameters. Some lattices are compound lattices that include and blend together at least two lattices populated by cells having different base geometries. Some compound lattices have a skin that includes beams extending across multiple cells at the exterior of the compound lattice.

  • Publication number: 20240306765
    Abstract: Soles for an article of footwear with a three-dimensional mesh having a plurality of interconnected unit cells composed of one or more soft sub-cells and one or more stiff sub-cells. The arrangement of one or more soft sub-cells and one or more stiff sub-cells for the interconnected unit cells can provide the three-dimensional mesh with anisotropic properties, for example, anisotropic lattice shear moduli. In particular embodiments, the arrangement of soft sub-cells and stiff sub-cells for the unit cells can create a three-dimensional mesh predisposed to deform forwards when a sole including the three-dimensional mesh contacts the ground.
