SHOE STRUCTURE

Abstract

A shoe structure is composed of a vamp, an insole and an outsole. The insole and its balanced plate are made of a botanic cornstarch synthetic resin. A support plate made of a bamboo sheet in different styles is disposed between the insole and the outsole, so that the integrated shoe structure can absorb forces exerted onto a foot sole to reduce the force and achieve a shock absorption effect and an anti-shock effect by the elasticity of fibers distributed on the support plate, so as to reduce the burden of the foot sole without feeling an increased weight, and the shoe structure made of a botanic material gives the effects of using an easily available material, lowering cost, and protecting environment.

Claims



1. A shoe structure, comprising a vamp, an insole and an outsole, characterized in that a support plate made of a bamboo sheet in different styles is disposed between the insole and the outsole for providing a wearing position for a foot arch, so that the elasticity of fibers distributed on the support plate can be provided for absorbing a force exerted onto a foot sole to reduce the force and achieve a shock absorption effect and an anti-shock effect, so as to reduce the burden of the foot sole without feeling an increased weight, and the shoe structure made of a botanic material gives the effects of using an easily available material, lowering cost, and protecting environment.

2. A shoe structure, comprising a vamp, an insole and an outsole, characterized in that the insole and a balanced plate combined with the insole are made of a cornstarch synthetic resin, such that the shoe structure made of a botanic material gives the effects of using an easily available material, lowering cost, and protecting environment.
Description



BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0001] 1. Field of the Invention

[0002] The present invention relates to a shoe structure that provides a support plate made of a bamboo sheet and disposed between an insole and an outsole, such that the elasticity of the support plate can absorb forces exerted onto a wearer's foot sole to reduce the force and enhance both shock absorption and anti-shock effects, and can also reduce the burden of the foot sole without feeling an increased weight, and the shoe structure made of a botanic material gives the effects of using an easily available material, lowering cost, and protecting environment.

[0003] 2. Description of the Related Art

[0004] In general, sport shoes or casual shoes are composed of a vamp, an insole and an outsole. A metal support plate is placed between the insole and the outsole for enhancing the support to forces exerted onto the whole shoe sole, but the total weight of the shoes will increase significantly due to the installed metal support plate, and the increased weight also creates another burden to the foot sole. Furthermore, the manufacturing cost is increased, and the manufacture of the support plate also has an adverse effect on environmental protections. To attract consumers' attention, a leather decorative surface is sewed onto the vamp to achieve an eye-catching effect, and such decorative surface is usually made by an artificial synthetic technique, and the manufacturing process of such a small portion of a shoe can jeopardize the environment and nature intangibly.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0005] In view of the foregoing shortcomings of the prior art, the inventor of the present invention based on years of experience to develop a shoe structure to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art.

[0006] Therefore, it is a primary objective of the present invention to provide a shoe structure comprising a vamp, an insole and an outsole, and a support plate made of a bamboo sheet in different styles is disposed between the insole and the outsole, so that the integrated shoe structure can absorb forces exerted onto a foot sole to reduce the force and achieve a shock absorption effect and an anti-shock effect by the elasticity of fibers distributed on the support plate, so as to reduce the burden of the foot sole without feeling an increase of the weight, and the shoe structure made of a botanic material gives the effects of using an easily available material, lowering cost, and protecting environment.

[0007] Another objective of the present invention is to provide a shoe structure, wherein the insole and its balanced plate are made of a cornstarch synthetic resin to give the effects of using an easily available material, lowering cost, and protecting environment.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0008] FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the present invention;

[0009] FIG. 2 is a schematic view of a shoe sole combined with a shoe structure in accordance with the present invention;

[0010] FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the present invention;

[0011] FIG. 4 is a schematic view of combining a support plate with a shoe sole in accordance with the present invention; and

[0012] FIG. 5 is another schematic view of combining a support plate with a shoe sole in accordance with the present invention.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0013] With reference to FIG. 1, a shoe structure of the present invention comprises a vamp 1, an insole 2 and an outsole 3, wherein the insole 2 and its balanced plate 2A are made of a cornstarch synthetic resin, and a support plate 4 made of a bamboo sheet in different styles is disposed at a wearing position of a foot arch and between the insole 2 and the outsole 3 (as shown in FIG. 2), so that the integrated shoe structure composed of the vamp 1, insole 2 and outsole 3 (as shown in FIG. 3) can absorb forces exerted onto a foot sole by the elasticity of fibers distributed on the support plate 4 to reduce the forces on the foot sole and enhances both shock absorption effect and anti-shock effect. Further, the support plate 4 is made of a bamboo sheet which has a light weight, so that if a shoe sole in different styles is installed (as shown in FIGS. 2, 4 and 5), the wearer will not feel the increased weight at all, and such shoe structure will not create a burden to the foot sole. Since the support plate 4 is made of a botanic bamboo material, the material is easily available, and thus substantially lowering the manufacturing cost, and even avoiding the damages created to the environment and nature.

[0014] In addition, the insole 2 and its balanced plate 2A of the invention are made of a cornstarch synthetic resin, and thus naturally lowering the cost and achieving the effect of protecting the environmental.

[0015] In summation of the description above, the present invention improves over the prior art, and complies with the requirements of patent application, and thus is duly filed for patent application.
