Abstract

The invention relates to a sole which can be made from any natural or synthetic material. According to the invention, bands are sewn between the layers of the sole and provided with links for the passage of the strap(s) used to fasten the sole to the foot. As a result, the user can alter the colour, shape, length, etc. of the straps and, in this way, design the footwear to suit the occasion.

Description

SUELA CON ESLABONES EN SU PERIFERIA QUE PERMITE AL USUARIO DISEÑAR Y TRANSFORMAR SUS SANDALIAS SOLE WITH LINKS IN ITS PERIPHERY THAT ALLOWS THE USER TO DESIGN AND TRANSFORM ITS SANDALS
ANTECEDENTESBACKGROUND
Hasta ahora, las sandalias, alpargatas y calzados similares han consistido de una plataforma sobre la que se montan (cosidas o pegadas) tiras de tela o piel que cubren el empeine del pie y corresponden a lo que, en todo tipo de zapatos, se llama corte o empella. Sin embargo, este sistema presenta dos limitantes o inconvenientes para el usuario: a) es imposible variar el color, la forma y la textura de las tiras o la empella; y b) es difícil lavarlas.Until now, sandals, espadrilles and similar footwear have consisted of a platform on which (strips or glued) strips of fabric or leather that cover the instep of the foot are mounted and correspond to what, in all types of shoes, is called cut or roll. However, this system has two limitations or inconveniences for the user: a) it is impossible to vary the color, shape and texture of the strips or the sheeting; and b) it is difficult to wash them.
De acuerdo con una investigación sobre el estado de la técnica, se han dado a conocer diferentes tipos de sistemas que hacen posible intercambiar el corte superior de un zapato o de una sandalia. Me referiré concretamente a dos documentos que presentan una sandalia de corte intercambiable. El primero (patente de Frédéric, N° FR 1034211) consiste en una suela de cuyo borde superior sobresalen unas grapas destinadas a guiar unas correas intercambiables que corren por un espacio hueco debajo de la suela. El segundo (Charles, N° US 2006/0174514) consiste en una suela provista de unas tiras fijas a la suela, cuyos extremos rematan en una especie ojal por donde pasa un gancho abierto, al cual se acoplan también, mediante los respectivos ojales, las cintas intercambiables del zapato. Sin embargo, los dos casos presentan inconvenientes significativos: Por un lado, tanto las grapas como los ganchos hacen contacto con el pie, provocando que éste se lastime; por el otro, tanto las grapas como los ganchos pueden desprenderse al caminar.According to an investigation on the state of the art, different types of systems have been disclosed that make it possible to exchange the upper cut of a shoe or a sandal. I will refer specifically to two documents that present an interchangeable sandal. The first (Frédéric patent, No. FR 1034211) consists of a sole whose upper edge protrudes staples intended to guide interchangeable straps that run through a hollow space under the sole. The second (Charles, No. US 2006/0174514) consists of a sole provided with fixed strips to the sole, the ends of which end in a sort of eyelet through which an open hook passes, to which they are also coupled, through the respective eyelets, interchangeable shoe straps. However, the two cases have significant drawbacks: On the one hand, both the clips and the hooks make contact with the foot, causing the foot to be injured; on the other, both the staples and the hooks can be detached when walking.
Con la finalidad de suprimir estos inconvenientes la presente invención consiste en una suela que permite intercambiar los cortes de una sandalia o un zapato, empleando un sistema fijo de cintas, provistas de eslabones en sus extremos, las cuales se cosen o pegan entre al menos dos suelas (una que hace contacto con el pie y otea que hace contacto con el suelo), permitiendo así que por sus eslabones pasen diferentes cortes superiores del calzado.With the purpose of eliminating these inconveniences, the present invention consists of a sole that allows to exchange the cuts of a sandal or a shoe, using a fixed system of ribbons, provided with links at their ends, which are sewn or glued between at least two soles (one which makes contact with the foot and observes that it makes contact with the ground), thus allowing different upper cuts of the footwear to pass through its links.
Estas cintas con eslabones no rebasan el borde superior de los suela, con el fin de evitar que los eslabones hagan contacto con el pie. Los eslabones, por su parte, no tienen aberturas sino que son cerrados, de manera que quedan fijos y no pueden salirse de la cinta que los sujeta, la suela puede ser de cualquier material y tener una altura suficiente para impedir que los eslabones la rebasen y los eslabones pueden ser de cualquier forma tamaño, siempre y cuando no sobrepase el borde superior de la suela.These links with ribbons do not exceed the upper edge of the soles, in order to prevent the links from making contact with the foot. The links, on the other hand, do not have openings but are closed, so that they are fixed and can not leave the tape that holds them, the sole can be of any material and have a sufficient height to prevent the links from passing it and the links can be any size, as long as it does not exceed the upper edge of the sole.

DESCRIPCIÓN DETALLADAFigures 8, 9, 10 and 11 represent views of the sole with different types of upper cuts assembled in the links of the tapes. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
El presente invento supone una solución novedosa a las limitantes anteriores para el caso de las sandalias, los huaraches, las alpargatas, los suecos y calzados similares. A continuación se detalla la invención para uno de estos casos (las alpargatas), en el entendido de que podrá aplicarse a los demás tipos de calzado, salvando sus diferencias específicas.The present invention is a novel solution to the above limitations in the case of sandals, huaraches, espadrilles, Swedes and similar footwear. The invention is detailed below for one of these cases (espadrilles), with the understanding that it can be applied to other types of footwear, saving their specific differences.
Hasta ahora, las suelas para alpargatas han consistido de una o varias capas de fibra vegetal trenzada. Cada una de estas capas se forma enrollando y pegando sobre sí una trenza de fibra vegetal, hasta obtener una plataforma que se conoce como urdido (suela natural). Modernamente, a este urdido suele añadírsele, por vulcanización, una delgada capa de material sintético, para reforzar y proteger la parte que entrará en contacto con el suelo (suela sintética). Finalmente, sobre la suela compuesta que resulta de unir el urdido con la capa sintética se cosen el corte o empella (si la alpargata cubre el empeine) o en su caso unas cintas que se ciñen al pie (si la alpargata es descubierta).So far, soles for espadrilles have consisted of one or several layers of braided vegetable fiber. Each of these layers is formed by rolling up and pasting a braid of vegetable fiber, until a platform is known as a warp (natural sole). Modernly, to this warp is usually added, by vulcanization, a thin layer of synthetic material, to reinforce and protect the part that will come into contact with the ground (synthetic sole). Finally, on the composite sole that results from joining the warp with the synthetic layer, the cut or stitching is sewn (if the espadrille covers the instep) or, if applicable, tapes that fit the foot (if the espadrille is discovered).
El invento propuesto consiste en un cuerpo de suela que define una sección superior, una sección inferior y dos lados laterales, cada sección superior e inferior están compuestas de capas (2a, 2b, 2c, 2d, 2f) añadiendo entre las secciones superior e inferior del cuerpo de suela unas cintas (3) que la cruzan transversalmente de costado a costado, estas son de material resistente y flexible y en cada uno de sus extremos llevan cosidos unos eslabones (4). En las suelas con capa sintética, esto ocurre antes de la vulcanización; en las de fibra natural, antes de coser las capas entre sí; en las suelas de madera, cuero, goma, caucho, plástico, etc., que consistan de una sola capa, las correas con los eslabones serán adosadas a la suela del modo más conveniente.The proposed invention consists of a sole body that defines an upper section, a lower section and two lateral sides, each upper and lower section are composed of layers (2a, 2b, 2c, 2d, 2f) adding between the upper and lower sections from the sole body some ribbons (3) that cross it transversely from side to side, these are made of resistant and flexible material and at each of their ends they have sewn links (4). In soles with a synthetic layer, this occurs before vulcanization; in natural fiber, before sewing the layers together; in the soles of wood, leather, rubber, rubber, plastic, etc., which consist of a single layer, the straps with the links will be attached to the sole in the most convenient way.
El largo de las cintas (3) excederá apenas el ancho de la suela. Así, los eslabones (4) cosidos a ella se hallarán adosados a sus bordes, sin rebasarlos ni hacia arriba (para no molestar al pie) ni hacia abajo (para evitar resbalones), pero teniendo algún juego en ambas direcciones, es decir que el grosor de la sección superior del cuerpo de suela, es decir la capa o capas superiores juntas será mayor a la altura de los eslabones. En las suelas altas, las cintas (3) se coserán debajo de la capa que hace contacto con el pie (2a y 2b), en los casos en que el tipo de suela lo haga necesario, el modelo añadirá en su superficie superior una talonera (5), intercambiable o fija, para evitar terceduras o inestabilidad del pie (Figura 8).The length of the tapes (3) will exceed just the width of the sole. Thus, the links (4) sewn to it will be attached to its edges, without exceeding them neither up (not to disturb the foot) nor down (to avoid slips), but having some play in both directions, that is to say Thickness of the upper section of the sole body, that is the upper layer or layers together will be greater than the height of the links. In high soles, the straps (3) will be sewn under the layer that makes contact with the foot (2a and 2b), in cases where the type of sole makes it necessary, the model will add in its upper surface a heel (5), interchangeable or fixed, to avoid tearing or instability of the foot (Figure 8).
La forma, la disposición y el material de los eslabones (4) dependerá de los modelos (de metal, de plástico, forrados en la misma fibra que la suela, etc.; en forma de argollas, rectángulos, hebillas, etc.). Así, por ejemplo, unas cintas anchas (3) implicarán un número menor de eslabones (4) alrededor de la suela, a los cuales tendrán que sujetarse mediante broches de presión, botones, velero o algún otro sistema (6).The shape, arrangement and material of the links (4) will depend on the models (metal, plastic, lined in the same fiber as the sole, etc .; in the form of rings, rectangles, buckles, etc.). Thus, for example, wide ribbons (3) will involve a smaller number of links (4) around the sole, to which they will have to be fastened by means of snaps, buttons, sailboat or some other system (6).
Se procede entonces a la vulcanización, al cosido, etc., donde se fijan las cintas (3) a la suela. La suela se ciñe al pie haciendo pasar por el ojo de los eslabones (4) un cordón, una cinta de tela, de piel, unas correas, etc. (7). Las formas y colores de dichas correas, así como la manera en que éstas crucen el empeine y pasen por el ojo de los eslabones, dependerán del gusto y la inventiva del usuario (Figuras 8 a 11). Éste podrá diseñar su alpargata o sandalia en cada ocasión, cambiando por completo las cintas (más largas o más cortas, de distintos colores, etc.) o sólo la manera de disponerlas, atarlas o rematarlas. It is then vulcanized, sewn, etc., where the tapes (3) are attached to the sole. The sole is attached to the foot by passing through the eye of the links (4) a cord, a fabric, leather tape, straps, etc. (7). The shapes and colors of these straps, as well as the way in which they cross the instep and pass through the eye of the links, will depend on the taste and inventiveness of the user (Figures 8 to 11). He can design his espadrille or sandal on each occasion, completely changing the tapes (longer or shorter, of different colors, etc.) or just the way to arrange them, tie them or finish them off.
