Abstract
A transformable shoe described wherein can transform into different heel heights. It is a shoe wherein the heel is detached or attached that transforms the shoe into heels of varying heights. The frame of the shoe contains two independent soles that are pivotally connected via a hinge. The two independent shoe soles will vary angles via the hinge upon attaching or detaching of the heel. Heels of varying heights can be attached to the bottom of the sole. The hinge connecting the two independent soles will rotate according to the height of the heels attached to the sole. The heel upon detachment from the shoe can be stowed by the person separately.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . A shoe assembly comprising:
a front sole section having a front sole section rear edge, a rear sole section having a rear sole section front edge and a rear sole section axis, a heel removably attached to said rear sole section, and a hinge connecting said front sole section and said rear sole section, wherein: said hinge is perpendicular to said rear sole section axis.
2 . The shoe assembly of claim 1 wherein:
said rear sole section has a rear sole section rear edge, and wherein said rear sole section axis extends from approximately the midpoint of said rear sole section rear edge to approximately the midpoint of said rear sole section front edge.
3 . The shoe assembly of claim 1 wherein said hinge comprises:
a cylinder with an open center, and an axle rod extending through the open center of said cylinder.
4 . The shoe assembly of claim 1 wherein:
said heel has a heel top surface and a heel bottom surface, said heel has a heel interior hollow, said rear sole section has a rear sole section bottom surface, and said rear sole section bottom surface has a rear sole section threaded hole.
5 . The shoe assembly of claim 4 wherein:
said heel is removably attached to said rear sole section, further comprising: means to connect said heel with said rear sole section.
6 . The shoe assembly of claim 5 wherein said means to connect said heel top surface with said rear sole section bottom surface comprises:
a rod of rigid material, wherein: said rod enters said heel interior hollow, the length of said rod is a least equal to the distance from said heel top surface to said heel bottom surface, and said rod has rod threads.
7 . The shoe assembly of claim 6 wherein:
said rod threads engage with said rear sole section threaded hole.
8 . The shoe assembly of claim 7 wherein:
said heel provides structural support, and said rod provides structural support of weight directed downwardly upon said rear sole section.
9 . The shoe assembly of claim 8 wherein:
said heel top surface has heel top protrusions, said rear sole section bottom surface has rear sole section bottom surface recesses, and said heel top surface protrusions enter into said rear sole section bottom surface recesses.
10 . The shoe assembly of claim 9 wherein:
said rod enters rear sole section bottom surface recesses, and said rod snaps into rear sole section bottom surface recess.Cited by (0)
