A plurality of panels spaced apart from each other in the front-rear direction of the foot on the inner side and / or the outer side, covering at least a part of the side surface of the foot, and drawn toward the inner and outer central portions of the foot by a fastening member; A plurality of non-extensible string portions that are arranged between a pair of panels adjacent to each other in the front-rear direction and extend in the front-rear direction.
The present invention relates to a shoe upper.
In competitions such as tennis, volleyball and soccer, a lot of turning and braking operations are forced. Due to the characteristics of such competition, the upper needs to have lateral stability. Therefore, the current competition shoes have secured the stability of the upper by using a high-rigidity artificial material or a polyurethane resin material.
However, although these shoes can obtain high stability, they have a problem that the weight is heavy, the upper is buckled at the time of bending, and the fitting property is low. In particular, due to the characteristics of the competition described above, not only simple expansion and contraction deformations to the upper but also twisting etc. are added to the upper for competition shoes, and uncomfortable wrinkles are likely to occur (prone to uncomfortable feeling on the foot surface). Improvement of fit is desired. An upper using a mesh member or a stretch member having a partially low rigidity has been developed as a means for improving the fit.
WO 2011/129017 A1 (front page) WO 2008/398 A1 (front page) WO 2007/140054 A1 (front page) JP2012-196488 A (front page) WO 2011/028444 A1 (front page) WO 2011/011176 A1 (front page)
The upper structure disclosed in WO 2011/129017 A1 will be able to realize a reduction in weight and an improvement in unique fit. However, this technique is difficult to increase the reinforcement in the foot width direction, and it may be difficult to expect improvement in stability.
Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a novel upper structure having stability, lightness and fit.
In one aspect, the upper of the present invention has an inner portion 31 that covers the inner surface of the foot,
An outer portion 32 covering the outer surface of the foot;
A plurality of inner portions 31 and / or outer portions 32 that are spaced apart from each other in the front-rear direction Y of the foot, cover at least a part of the side surface of the foot, and are drawn toward the inner and outer central portions 36 of the foot by the fastening member 6. Panel 11 of
Among the plurality of panels 11, a plurality of non-extensible string portions 10 are disposed between a pair of panels 11 adjacent to each other in the front-rear direction Y and extend in the front-rear direction Y.
In the present invention, non-stretching includes a non-stretchable string portion that does not stretch or shrink, and further, essentially does not stretch beyond a predetermined length (by a force applied during wearing), but shrinks from a predetermined length. That means including a possible string part.
A string-like string part means a thing thicker than a thread and thinner than a rope.
In addition, the front-rear direction Y means including a horizontal direction parallel to the long axis of the foot and a direction inclined up and down and / or inside and outside the horizontal direction.
In the above aspect, the string portion disposed between the pair of panels 11 will help to reduce the weight of the upper.
In addition, the string portion is more likely to be deformed such that it is easily twisted or curved and contracted than a general upper member having a surface structure. Therefore, the upper will easily follow and deform when the foot is deformed due to the deformation of the foot. Therefore, the fit will be improved.
In addition, when the foot is going to shift inward or outward inside the upper, the non-extensible string portion will support the inner and outer side surfaces of the foot without extending beyond the predetermined length. Therefore, stability will be excellent.

In addition, the up-down direction means that the vertical direction and the direction inclined forward and backward and / or inside and outside the vertical direction are included, and means that the direction perpendicular to the direction in which the string portion 10 extends is included.
In this case, the string portion is more likely to be deformed such that it is twisted or curved and contracted more easily than a general upper member having a surface structure.
Preferably, the vertical width W of each string portion 10 is set to 1 mm to 15 mm.

Each panel member 2 is in a state where the plurality of columns and rows of the plurality of through holes S are open, and a portion of the mesh member 1 between the adjacent through holes S (hereinafter referred to as an exposed portion 10A). Are laminated on the front and back of the mesh member 1 in a state where is exposed. That is, each panel member 2 is laminated with the mesh member 1 interposed therebetween.
The mesh member 1 may be formed of a thin resin film (FRP) including reinforcing fibers extending in the front-rear direction Y.
The reinforcing member 34 in FIGS. 1 to 3 is bonded and / or welded to the upper surface of the midsole 80, for example, and an inner portion 31 that covers the inner surface of the instep and an outer surface of the instep. And an outer portion 32 for covering. The inner portion 31 and the outer portion 32 of the reinforcing member 34 include a plurality of panels 11 and a large number of string portions 10.
Next, each panel 11 and the string portion 10 will be described in detail. The inner portion 31 and the outer portion 32 have the same structure.
In the inner portion 31 and the outer portion 32, the panels 11 are spaced apart from each other in the front-rear direction Y of the foot, cover at least a part of the side surface of the foot, and a shoe race (an example of a fastening member) 6 It is drawn toward the inner and outer central portions 36. That is, for example, loops R are sewn to the upper end of each panel 11 in FIG. 1, and shoelaces 6 are inserted into these loops R.
Each panel 11 in FIGS. 2 and 3 covering the side of the instep of the foot extends in the transverse direction X (FIG. 1) and / or the vertical direction (including the oblique vertical direction) of the foot. Each string portion 10 covers the side of the instep.
Here, the instep means a portion that is posterior to the metatarsophalangeal joint MP of FIG. 10 and anterior to the front end Be of the talus and includes the upper surface and the side surface of the foot. The panel 11 may or may not cover the toes ahead of the middle foot phalanx joint MP and the buttocks behind the front end Be of the talus as in the rear panel 11 of FIG. Good.
Each panel 11 covering the side surface of the upper is formed in a rectangular strip shape (strip shape) extending obliquely backward or vertically from the upper end where the loop R is joined toward the midsole 80. The panels 11 are separated from each other in the front-rear direction Y or the oblique front-rear direction, and a large number of the string portions 10 are arranged between the panels 11 adjacent to each other.
Each slit-like through-hole S of the mesh member 1 in FIG. 4 extends in the oblique front-rear direction Y substantially parallel to each other. The through holes S are regularly arranged in the oblique front-rear direction Y and the transverse direction.
A portion between the through hole S and the through hole S between the front and rear directions Y is joined to each panel 11 of the panel member 2. Thus, the exposed portions 10A are spaced apart from each other in the circumferential direction of the foot among the plurality of through holes S and extend in the front-rear direction Y between the through holes S and the through holes S adjacent to each other in the circumferential direction. The string part 10 of FIG. 3 is formed.
Each said string part 10 is non-extensible in the front-back direction Y. Such a non-extensible string portion 10 may be formed by including a plurality of non-extensible fibers that are long in the front-rear direction Y in the fabric constituting the mesh member 1 of FIG.
In addition, the said string part 10 may have contractibility by including the another fiber which expands-contracts in the front-back direction Y.
As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the string portions 10 are arranged between a pair of panels 11 adjacent to each other in the front-rear direction Y among the plurality of panels 11 and are formed in a string shape extending in the front-rear direction Y. Has been. On the other hand, the vertical width W of each string portion 10 in FIG. 6 is set to about 2 mm to 5 mm, for example, and each string portion 10 is formed in a planar shape having a small area and a linear shape. Thus, the string portion 10 is set in a state in which the foot can be freely displaced and / or deformed in the transverse direction X (FIG. 1) and / or in the vertical direction.
As shown in an enlarged view in FIG. 6, the width W in the vertical direction of the string portion 10 means a distance between the upper edge and the lower edge of one string portion 10. In other words, the width W is defined as an imaginary line that traverses one string portion 10 in the vertical or diagonally up and down direction (perpendicular to the direction in which one string portion 10 extends) and two edges of the string portion 10. It means the distance between a pair of intersecting points O, O. It should be noted that these distances should be considered as distances along the curvature of the foot surface.
In the inner portion 31 and the outer portion 32, the plurality of string portions 10 are arranged at a substantially constant pitch P in the vertical direction. The ratio W / P of the width W of the string portion 10 to the pitch P in the vertical direction is set to about 60% to 80%, for example.
In addition, the pitch P of the string part 10 means a distance between a center line CL extending in a direction in which one string part 10 extends and a center line CL of another string part 10 adjacent to the string part 10. .
The length L of each string portion 10, that is, the length L of each string portion 10 between the pair of adjacent panels 11 is set to about 4 to 10 mm, for example.
In addition, generally the thickness of each string part 10, ie, the thickness of the mesh member 1 of FIG. 4, will be preferably about 0.5 to 1.5 mm.
The flexible member 33 shown in FIG. 5 is formed of, for example, a resin foam, a knitted fabric, a mesh-like member, or a combination thereof, and is more easily expanded and contracted in the front-rear direction Y than the string portion 10 and the panel 11. As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, a reinforcing member 34 formed of the panel 11 and the string portion 10 is disposed on the outer surface of the flexible member 33.
The reinforcing member 34 formed by the panel 11 and the string portion 10 is disposed along the outer surface of the flexible member 33 on the inside and outside of the instep. On the inner side and the outer side of the instep, most of the panel 11 and the string portion 10 are set in a non-attached state to the outer surface of the flexible member 33. In the case of this example, the string portion 10 is set in a non-adhering state on the outer surface of the flexible member 33, so that the string portion 10 is displaced and / or deformed in the transverse direction X and / or the vertical direction of the foot. It is set to a free state. It is preferable that at least the upper half of each panel 11 is in non-adhering contact with the outer surface of the flexible member 33 on the inside and outside of the instep.
On the other hand, the lower end edge of the reinforcing member 34 is attached (fixed) to the midsole 80 as described above. The reinforcing member 34 is attached (sewn) to the flexible member 33 at the rear end of the upper 3.
In the present invention, the term “attachment” may be replaced with the term “adhesion”, and conceptually means being joined so that it cannot be easily removed. Specifically, “attachment” means means such as adhesion, welding or stitching (sewing), or a combination of these two or more means.
In the present invention, the “non-attached state” means a free (free) state in which the panel 11 or the reinforcing member 34 is not attached to the flexible member 33. The non-attached panel 11 and the reinforcing member 34 are not restrained by the flexible member 33, and can be displaced and deformed such as twisting and rotating around the attached part. On the other hand, the portion of the flexible member 33 to which the string portion 10 and the panel 11 are not attached may be deformed so as to expand and contract in accordance with the deformation of the foot or the upper.
The at least one panel 11 of the plurality of panels 11 on the inner side of FIG. 2 or at least a part of the plurality of non-extensible string portions 10 is the inner side of the foot of FIG. At least part of the side surface of the main ball O1. On the other hand, at least one panel 11 of the plurality of panels 11 on the outer side of FIG. 3 or at least a part of the plurality of non-extensible string portions 10 has the legs of FIG. At least a part of the side surface of the small ball O5.
Next, the behavior of the upper will be described. That is, the behavior of the upper when shifting from the stationary standing position shown in FIGS. 6 and 8 to the time of dorsiflexion in FIGS. 7 and 9 will be described. In the present embodiment, “foot dorsiflexion” means that a joint in the foot (for example, a metatarsal joint joint or an interphalangeal joint) is dorsiflexed.
Now, when the shoes and feet of FIGS. 7 and 9 are dorsiflexed, the upper surface of the upper shrinks.
On the other hand, the string portion 10 of FIG. 7 (and FIG. 9) exhibits a deformation that shrinks in a direction along the upper surface of the upper during the dorsiflexion. In addition to the case where the surface of the flat string portion 10 is deformed as a curved surface, this deformation may be realized by actually shrinking the string portion 10.
That is, as can be seen from the comparison between FIG. 6 and FIG. 7, the panels 11 are displaced so that the distance between the adjacent panels 11 is shortened by the dorsiflexion. At this time, the lower end of the panel member 2 is attached to the midsole 80. Therefore, each panel 11 is inclined forward YF with the attached portion as the center. Thus, the panel 11 and the string portion 10 are displaced and deformed simultaneously.
On the other hand, when a force is applied in the cross direction X of the foot in the upper 3 of FIG. 1, each panel 11 drawn to the central portion 36 by the shoelace 6 fits to the inner and outer side surfaces of the foot, and these side surfaces are To support. At this time, the non-extensible string portion 10 resists the force and suppresses the movement of the main ball O1 in FIG. 10 or the movement of the small ball O5 to the outside. Let's go.
As shown in FIG. 11, the reinforcing member 34 may be formed by laminating one panel member 2 on one mesh member 1.
In FIG. 12, which shows another example, the string portion 10 is shown painted black. A string portion 10 may be formed between the panels 11 and 11 with a plurality of string members 10B sandwiched between the plurality of panels 11 and the flexible member 33. Also in this case, it is preferable that the string portion 10 is set in a non-attached state to the flexible member 33.
As described above, the preferred embodiments have been described with reference to the drawings. However, those skilled in the art will readily see various changes and modifications within the obvious scope by looking at the present invention.
For example, the lower half of the panel or the entire panel may be fixed to the flexible member.
Further, the bending rigidity of the panel member may be smaller than that of the mesh member or equivalent to that of the mesh member.
The sole arranged under the upper may have only a so-called outsole.
A panel and a string part may be provided only in one of an inner side part or an outer side part.
A tongue piece may be provided at the center of the upper.
The shoelace insertion holes may be eyelets instead of loops.
A belt may be employed as the tightening member instead of the shoe race or in addition to the shoe race.
The present invention can be applied to shoes for various uses such as walking in addition to shoes for court competition and running.
