  • Publication number: 20240365924
    Abstract: Disclosed is a sole with a midsole (1) for a running shoe, wherein the midsole (1) comprises a forefoot region (VFB), a heel region (FB) and a midfoot region (MFB) arranged between the forefoot region (VFB) and the heel region (FB), and wherein the midsole comprises an elastic cushioning layer (2) and a base layer (3) arranged thereon, wherein the base layer (3) has a greater hardness than the cushioning layer (2) and wherein the cushioning layer (2) forms, in the heel region (FB) and optionally in the midfoot region (MFB) and/or in the forefoot region (VFB), a plurality of channels (21, 22) extending in the transverse direction (Q) of the sole.

  • Publication number: 20240298745
    Abstract: The invention relates to a sole for a running shoe, comprising an elastic midsole (1) with a base surface (2), which delimits the midsole (1) opposite the vertical direction (V) of the midsole, and a surface (3), which delimits the midsole (1) in the vertical direction (V). The midsole (1) is divided into a heel region (FB), a central foot region (MFB), and a front foot region (VFB), and the midsole (1) has multiple channels (41, 42, 43) which run in the transversal direction (Q) of the midsole (1) and are arranged one behind the other in the longitudinal direction (L) of the midsole (1).

  • Publication number: 20240138513
    Abstract: Disclosed is a sole for a running shoe, comprising a sole tip (4), a heel edge (5) and a midsole (1) having a base surface delimiting the midsole against the vertical direction (V) of the midsole and a top surface (2) delimiting the midsole in the vertical direction (V), wherein the midsole (1) has a heel region (FB), a midfoot region (MFB) and a forefoot region (VFB) and wherein the midsole (1) has an elastic plate (6), wherein the elastic plate (6) extends at least from the forefoot region (VFB) into the midfoot region (MFB), and wherein the elastic plate (6) in the forefoot region (VFB) and/or in the midfoot region (MFB) has a first curvature (61) with a vertex (S-61) curved along the longitudinal direction (L) of the midsole (1) in the direction of the top surface (2) of the midsole (1), wherein the elastic plate (6) is formed in such a way that the first curvature (61) is elastically bent in the direction of the base surface (3) by the forces acting during treading and/or rolling movement, and the first

  • Publication number: 20240049837
    Abstract: A method for producing a textile material, in particular a shoe upper, including the steps of: providing a shaping support, in particular a last; melting a polymer composition at a first temperature; applying the molten polymer composition to the shaping support. The molten polymer composition is applied to the shaping support by a nozzle which has an outlet opening for the molten polymer composition and a plurality of air exit openings which are provided around the outlet opening and from which compressed air is supplied to the exiting polymer composition in such a way that the molten polymer composition which has exited from the nozzle is applied as a helical filament to the shaping support.

  • Publication number: 20230354960
    Abstract: A method for producing a foam-molded shoe component includes the steps of: providing a polymer granulate; pre-treating the polymer granulate including binding to or in the polymer granulate a physical propellant in an autoclave at a first pressure and a first temperature; and foaming the pre-treated polymer granulate including melting the polymer granulate to produce a molten polymer composition, and foaming the molten polymer composition as a result of the expansion of the physical propellant.
