Air permeabile mobile insole
An air permeable mobile insole including a plastic layer and an air permeable woven layer covering up the plastic layer; multiple ventilation pores are disposed in consistent arrangement on the plastic layer; and a first groove connecting to the ambient air is formed between any two neighboring pores; a wall is molded protruding from the outer edge of the plastic layer; and multiple ventilation pores or multiple second grooves connecting through first grooves are disposed on the side of the wall not covered with the woven layer so to allow each ventilation pore communicating with the ambient air through the grooves to realize sufficient air circulation and fully removal of the odor.
(a) Field of the Invention
The present invention is related to an air unit, and more particularly, to an air permeable mobile insole.
(b) Description of the Prior Art
Insoles generally available in the market are each essentially comprised of two layers of a plastic layer made of EVA (Ethylene-Vinyl Acetate) or polyurethane (PU) foamed material and a woven layer adhered to the surface of the EVA layer. However, EVA or PU possess poor air permeability and the user wearing a pair of shoes with EVA or PU insole for a prolonged walking will develop odor from both feet, and that even presents a serious problem for those who sweats easily on both feet. Continuous efforts have been put to improve promote air permeability efficacy of the insole while increasing the wearing comfort of the footwear such as an air permeable insole published in Taiwan Gazette No. 90225551. The insole disclosed is essentially comprised of two sheets of foamed material adhered to each other and then processed and cut into shape. Multiple grooves to permit ventilation are disposed on the surface of the lower layer with each groove running through the outer edge of the insole to the terminal of the insole; a gap is disposed to the outer edge of the insole where the groove is provided; and the tail of the insole extends up to where close to the shoe opening above the heel so to prevent the ventilation passage from being blocked by the inner edge of the shoe to facilitate full ventilation. However, all the grooves are located on the bottom of the entire insole to prevent from realizing vertical ventilation; as a result, it becomes very difficult to eliminate the odor in the shoe since the odor is trapped in the shoe.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTIONThe primary purpose of the present invention is to provide an air permeable mobile insole in an even reasonable construction to correct the ventilation deficiency found with the prior art. To achieve the purpose, the present invention includes an EVA base layer and an air permeable woven layer attached onto the EVA layer. Multiple ventilation pores arranged in a consistent pattern are disposed on the EVA layer and a first groove connecting through the ambient air is molded between any two neighboring pores. A protruded wall is molded to the wall of the EVA layer and multiple ventilation pores or a second groove connecting through each first groove are disposed on the side of the wall not covered with the woven layer.
Whereas those ventilation pores are directly disposed on the insole and the woven layer is made of air permeable fabric, air current is allowed to vertically circulate through the woven layer and multiple ventilation pores. Meanwhile, as the weight of the wearer compresses the bottom of the EVA layer to the sole, those interconnecting first grooves disposed among ventilation pores to facilitate smooth exhaust of the air current allows each ventilation pore to connect through the ambient air by means of the first groove thus to realize air circulation to completely exhaust the odor.
The present invention is related to an air permeable mobile insole to be placed in the shoe for improving wearing comfort and air permeability of the shoe.
As illustrated in
Multiple ventilation pores 11 are consistently distributed on the plastic layer and multiple first grooves 12 interconnecting to one another are each disposed between any two neighboring ventilation pores 11. As illustrated in
To improve wearing comforts, a wall 13 protruding from the edge of the plastic layer 1 is molded as illustrated in
Multiple ventilation pores 11 are disposed or a second groove 14 is disposed connecting through the first groove 12 on the side of the wall 13 not covered up by the woven layer 2. With the presence of the second groove 14, an area between the wall 13 and the inner surface of the shoe is prevented from being fully adhered to each other so that the airflow in the insole is capable of being expelled from the wall 13 through the second groove 14 in time. Accordingly, the airflow at the bottom of the insole is kept a well-facilitated communication with the ambient air to effectively expel the airflow in the insole.
Whereas those multiple ventilation pores 11 are directly disposed on the insole and the woven layer 2 is made of air permeable material, is the airflow directly enters into those ventilation pores 11 through the woven layer 2 to realize vertical ventilation as indicated by an arrow C in
The prevent invention provides an improved structure of an air permeable mobile insole, and the application for a utility patent is duly filed accordingly. However, it is to be noted that the preferred embodiments disclosed in the specification and the accompanying drawings are not limiting the present invention; and that any construction, installation, or characteristics that is same or similar to that of the present invention should fall within the scope of the purposes and claims of the present invention.
