Title: Foaming Shoe with Built-In Luminous Component

Description:
TECHNICAL FIELD 
     The invention relates to the field of footwear, in particular to a shoe with a built-in luminous component for shoe body decoration. 
     BACKGROUND 
     As is well known to us all, shoes make children feel restrained on feet, so they like to take the shoes off, bare feet is unfavorable for children&#39;s personal cleanness and body health and further brings a negative impact on walk-learning interest of children, however, luminous shoes with flashing lights become quite popular among children and adults because of their fashionable, fancy luminous and flashing features, children who wear shoes emitting light in various colors feel extremely excited, as a result, these shoes have won great support of parents. In order to further enhance the walking interest of walk-learning children, various types of shoes with LED light sources embedded therein have been also designed, wherein a motion-driving switch is arranged in a drive circuit for the LED light source in general, motion of a shoe wearer triggers the motion-driving switch, which further triggers the drive circuit to control the LED luminous light bodies to achieve light emission. 
     In traditional shoes that are capable of emitting light, however, luminous bodies are attached on the vamp and the luminous controller is embedded in the thick heel on the shoe bottom, therefore, special treatments, like waterproof treatment, anti-impact treatment and anti-bending treatment, need to be carried out on the luminous bodies and the luminous controller embedded on the shoe as well as on the connection electric wire for connection between the luminous bodies and the luminous controller, moreover, these traditional shoes are complex in manufacturing, that is to say, the vamp and the bottom needs to be manufactured separately and the vamp is then mounted on the bottom, such a process creates a disadvantage in mounting the luminous bodies and in connecting the luminous bodies with the luminous controller via the electric wire, and also changes the original shoemaking process flow, consequently, the original complex shoemaking procedure becomes more difficult to comprehend.
