Abstract

This invention relates to the shoe industry and particularly to decorative coverings fitted over the shoe for the purpose of changing its external appearance. The coverings consist of an upper portion with a toe, heel and sidewalls, the upper edges of which form an opening for accommodating the foot, and also a lower portion with an outsole in the region of the toe and an opening in the middle region of the sole and heelpiece, delimited by the lower edges of the sidewalls and the heel. The invention is characterised in that the outsole of the cover is attached to an outsole component that is joined to the upper part of the cover, while the lower edges of the sidewalls are joined in the middle region of the sole from the instep to the heel by at least one transverse rubber element. The edge of the outsole component may be positioned on the instep of the sole of the shoe; the lower edges of the sidewalls in the middle region of the sole may be joined by a number of transverse rubber elements which are parallel to one another or intersect. Additional firm lining elements may be found in the region of the toe and the heel. The technical result is a closer fit and more reliable attachment of the cover to the shoe.

Description

DECORATIVE SHOES CASE

Technical field

The invention relates to the shoe industry, namely to decorative covers that are worn over shoes with the aim of changing its appearance (color, texture), giving the shoe an updated or solemn appearance, transforming shoes into boots or boots by adding shafts.

State of the art

Known decorative covers for shoes that contain a cover for the upper part of the shoe and heel, as well as the sole (US patent 34s? 3141247, publ. 07/21/1964; US patent W 3373510, publ. 03/19/1968). The fit of the cover to the shoe is ensured by the elasticity of the material and the use of adhesive tape and glue in some places. However, in this case, a sufficient tightness of fit and fixing the cover on the surface of the shoes are not provided.

Known decorative cover for shoes according to international application J WO2009105056 (publ. 27.08.2009). Such a cover consists of the upper part containing a toe, heel and sidewalls, the upper edges of which form a neckline that matches the neckline of the shoe. The lower part of the cover contains a sole in the cape and a cutout in the middle of the sole and heel, bounded by the lower edges of the sidewalls. Details of the upper part of the cover are made of elastic material, and cutouts in the upper and lower parts of the cover are framed by an elastic edging tape. To improve the fixation of the cover on the shoe while wearing, carry out its additional fastening in areas of the outsole and heel, for example, using double-sided tape. A decorative cover may have a boot attached to the upper edges of the sidewalls, which allows it to be used for high boots or boots. This invention is taken as a prototype.

The disadvantages of the invention include the fact that the design of the cover does not provide a sufficient density of its fit and the reliability of fastening on the shoe, as a result of which the cover can move when walking. Another disadvantage is that between the outsole of the cover and the sole of the shoe a “pocket” forms, which, when walking, can cling to asphalt irregularities, and in which dirt and small pebbles can fall. This can lead to deformation of the cover and possible tearing of the outsole. Disclosure of invention

The technical result of the invention is to increase the tightness and reliability of fastening the cover on the shoe.

The technical result is achieved by the fact that in a decorative shoe cover containing the upper part, consisting of a cape, heel and sidewalls, the upper edges of which form a notch in the shape of shoes to accommodate the legs, as well as the lower part with a soles in the cape and a cut in the middle region soles and heels, bounded by the lower edges of the sidewalls and the heel, ACCORDING TO THE INVENTION, the sole of the cover is fixed to the outsole connected to the upper part of the cover, and the lower edges of the sidewalls in the middle of the sole from the rise to the heel are connected at the extreme th measure, one transverse elastic band. In the particular case of performing the cover, the edge of the outsole may be located on the rise of the sole of the shoe.

The outsole may be made of the same material as the top of the cover.

The lower edges of the sidewalls in the middle region of the sole can be connected by a series of transverse elastic bands made parallel to each other.

The lower edges of the sidewalls in the middle region of the sole can be joined by a series of transverse elastic bands made by intersecting.

In the area of the cape and heel, the cover may contain additional rigid pads.

The decorative cover may also contain short elastic bands made on the upper and / or lower edge of the heel on the inside.

The upper part of the cover can be made with a partially open cape and / or partially open heel, depending on the model of shoes.

The upper part of the cover may be made of inelastic material.

Outsole sole can be made of wear-resistant material.

The outsole sole may include a protruding welt or rim.

Figure 4 shows a view of a decorative cover from below with crossed transverse elastic bands.

In FIG. 5 is a bottom view of a decorative cover with an outsole detail completely corresponding to the outsole.

Figure 6 shows a view of the decorative cover from below with an outsole detail partially corresponding to the outsole (the outsole does not cover the area of the cape).

In FIG. 7 is a bottom view of a decorative cover with an outsole detail partially corresponding to the outsole (the outsole has a cutout in the middle part). The implementation of the invention

Decorative cover contains the upper part, consisting of cape 1, heel 2 and sidewalls 3, the upper edges 4 of which form a notch in the form of shoes (figure 1). The upper part of the cover can be made with a partially open cape and an open heel (figure 2).

The cover contains the lower part (Fig. 3-4), consisting of outsole 5 and a cutout in the middle region of the sole and heel, bounded by the lower edges 6 of the sidewalls and heels. The outsole is attached to the outsole 7, which is connected to the top part of the case. The outsole may protrude from under the outsole (FIGS. 3-4), and its edge may be located on the rise of the sole of the shoe (FIG. 4). The outsole may correspond to the outsole in full (Fig. 5) or in part (Fig. 6, 7).

The lower edges of the sidewalls in the middle region of the sole from the rise to the heel are connected by a number of transverse elastic bands 8, which can be made parallel (Fig. 3) or intersecting (Fig. 4). On the upper and / or lower edge of the heel 2 on the inner side can be located short elastic bands 9 (Fig. 1, Fig. 3).

Decorative covers always go in pairs - on the right and left legs; they are made as follows.

Cape 1, heel 2 and sidewalls 3 of the upper part of the cover are made of elastic materials (stretch leather, knitted fabric, knitted fabric, any natural and artificial fabrics on a knitted basis, etc.), or from inelastic materials (suede, leather, leather substitutes, suede substitutes, any inelastic natural and artificial fabrics, fur, faux fur, etc.). Details of the upper part of the cover can be cut separately and stitched, or the upper part can be made of one-piece.

For the manufacture of outsole 5 wear-resistant materials are used, such as polymeric materials, rubber, natural or artificial leather, cork, wood, felt and other materials that are resistant to abrasion and are used for the manufacture of outsole shoes. The outsole can have a protruding welt or rim (not shown in the figures).

The outsole 7 (Fig. 1-7) is made of various elastic and inelastic materials, including the same material used for the top of the case. As already noted, this part can be cut out completely or partially in the shape of the outsole, or so that its edge protrudes from under the outsole and is located on the rise of the sole of the shoe (figure 4). The outsole 7 is first sewn to the upper part of the cover, and then outsole 5 is fixed on it (sew or glue). This ensures a more snug fit of the cover to the shoe in the outsole area, eliminates the "pocket" between the outsole of the shoe and the outsole of the cover, into which dirt and small stones can get into when walking. In addition, in the embodiment, when the edge of the outsole is located on the rise of the shoe, the contact of the rear edge of the outsole of the cover with asphalt (or other surface) irregularities that can lead to deformation of the cover and possible tearing of the outsole is eliminated. An elongated outsole eliminates these shortcomings.

In the manufacturing process of the cover, one wide elastic band or several narrow transverse elastic bands 8 (parallel to each other or with intersection) are sewn to the lower edges 6 of the sidewalls 3 in the middle region of the sole from the rise to the heel.

Sometimes, in order to further enhance the tightness of the decorative cover to the shoe along the upper and / or lower edge of the heel, short elastic bands 9 are sewn from the inside of the cover (Fig. 1, Fig. 3).

To increase the wear resistance of the covers and improve their appearance, as well as to change the shape of the front and back of the shoes, in the area of the cape 1 and heel 2 can be inserted hard gaskets (not shown in the figures). Gaskets can be made of any material that, on the one hand, it is quite flexible and light, and, on the other hand, can be molded, for example, PVC film, foam rubber, polyurethane foam, rubber, dense leather, shoe nitro-artificial leather-T, thermoplastic vinyl artificial leather-NT, shoe cardboard, plastic and others. The method of attaching gaskets to the cover is stitching or gluing.

The proposed cover can be made with a partially open cape and / or open heel if used for open shoes such as sandals.

A bootleg can be sewn to the upper edges of the sidewalls 4 of the decorative cover, which will allow the shoes to be transformed into high boots or boots, and various straps and decorative elements can be attached to the cover to change the appearance of the shoe (not shown in the figures).

When putting on the cover, its upper part is pulled over the toe, the vamp and the back of the shoe with the heel in the neckline. This ensures a good fit and reliability of fastening the cover on the shoe, which ultimately leads to an improvement in the aesthetic appearance of the cover and ease of use. The best embodiments of the invention

Example 1

The upper part of the cover is made of leather or leather substitutes. Leather and leather substitutes are also used for the manufacture of the outsole, and light, thin and flexible materials, such as alloys of polymers and rubber, are used to make the outsole. The outsole is cut out in the shape of the outsole so so that subsequently its edge is located on the rise of the sole of the shoe. The outsole is sewn to the top of the cover in the area of the cape and the outsole is glued to it.

One wide elastic is sewn to the lower edges of the sidewalls in the midsole area. Short narrow elastic bands are sewn to the upper and lower edges of the heel from the inside.

The area of the cape and heel is additionally sealed with gaskets made of shoe lining or special thin thermoplastic materials used for shoe toes. The gaskets are glued to the wrong side of the cover.

Example 2

The upper part of the cover and the outsole are made of textile. The outsole is cut out in the shape of the outsole so that subsequently its edge is located on the rise of the sole of the shoe. The outsole is sewn to the top of the cover in the area of the cape.

The outsole is made by casting using molding materials - polyurethanes and polyvinyl chloride pastes. In the casting process, the outsole is simultaneously connected to the upper part of the cover in the area of the cape and the outsole.

Several transverse elastic bands are sewn parallel to each other to the lower edges of the sidewalls in the middle region of the sole. Short narrow elastic bands are sewn to the upper and lower edges of the heel from the inside.
