  • Publication number: 20040098882
    Abstract: An airbag buffer for footwear includes a sole and an airbag. The sole has a plurality of air passageways. The airbag is arranged in the sole and has an air flowing section between the airbag and the sole and communicating to the air passageways. The air within the sole is forced to flow into the air flowing section through the air passageways when the sole is pressed. The air flowed into the air flowing section can flow back to the sole through the air passageways when the pressure exerted to the sole is relieved. Therefore, the air within the footwear can uniformly flow along front-and-back and left-and-right directions as the user walks. The uniform and omni-directional flow of air makes a comfortable feeling to user.

  • Publication number: 20040093760
    Abstract: An air-permeable waterproof device for a shoe has a shoe sole and non-return pieces. Air outlets are disposed at the bottom of the shoe sole, and air vent holes are disposed at the top thereof. Receiving rooms are disposed in the shoe sole and located between the air outlets and air vent holes to connect them together. Bumps are disposed on inner surfaces at the air outlet side of the receiving rooms. The non-return pieces are disposed in the receiving rooms. Foot heat and moisture in a shoe are discharged out from the air vent holes through the air outlets. Exterior water is blocked by the non-return pieces and cannot permeate the shoe through the air vent holes. A filter net is disposed at the shoe sole to prevent the air outlets from being blocked. Moreover, the filter net is skidproof and can absorb moisture in the shoe.

  • Publication number: 20040074107
    Abstract: An air-permeable waterproof device comprises an air-permeable wall, an air vent wall, and a non-return piece. The air-permeable wall has air-permeable holes. The air vent wall has air vent holes and bumps. The air vent wall and the air-permeable wall are connected together to form a receiving room. The non-return piece is disposed in the receiving room. The air-permeable waterproof device is disposed on a shoe. Heat and moisture in the shoe are discharged out through the air-permeable holes and the air vent holes. Water in sumps on the ground will be blocked by the non-return piece and thus will not permeate into the shoe through the air vent holes to dampen the lining. Therefore, the inside of the shoe keeps nice and cool to let wearing of the shoe be comfortable and also avoid breeding of germs and foot diseases.
