Abstract

A shoe with a superior wearing sensation is equipped with an anti-slip structure to forward comfort and safety in a watery place. The shoe includes an upper that covers an instep from above, an insole part that connects to the lower part of the upper and an outsole part which is integrated by adhesion with the insole part and the upper and which is supported by an outsole surface, wherein the outsole part is equipped with an anti-slip structure in which a plurality of suction parts are arranged while a suction part includes a cup that tightly contacts along the cup rim to the ground surface to provide, by being compressed, suction force and a protuberance that protrudes downward from the center of the cup.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . An aqua shoe that is equipped with an anti-slip structure comprising:
 an upper that covers an instep from above;   an insole part that connects to the lower part of the upper; and   an outsole part which is integrated with the insole part and the upper and which is supported by an outsole surface,   wherein the outsole part is equipped with an anti-slip structure in which a plurality of suction parts are arranged while a suction part includes a cup that tightly contacts along the cup rim to the ground surface to provide, by being compressed, suction force.   
     
     
         2 . The aqua shoe that is equipped with an anti-slip structure of  claim 10 , wherein the suction part is constructed so that the level of the cup rim is located lower than the level of the lower end of the protuberance. 
     
     
         3 . The aqua shoe that is equipped with an anti-slip structure of  claim 2 , wherein, for the suction part, the cup rim, upon stepping on the ground, contacts to the ground and provides suction force by being compressed then relieves the suction force when the protuberance, upon shifting the foot load and by increasing the pressure, contacts to the ground. 
     
     
         4 . The aqua shoe that is equipped with an anti-slip structure of  claim 1 , wherein the outsole part is provided with connections that link the tops of the suction part one another and openings that vertically penetrate between the connections. 
     
     
         5 . The aqua shoe that is equipped with an anti-slip structure of  claim 4 , wherein the outsole part is provided with an inlay that shapes as a flat panel, and the level of the inlay bottom corresponds to the level of the lower end of the suction part. 
     
     
         6 . The aqua shoe that is equipped with an anti-slip structure of  claim 5 , wherein the outsole part is provided with a side wall that forms edging around the suction part arrangement and openings form among the connections adjacent to the inlay whereas occlusions form among the connections adjacent to the side wall. 
     
     
         7 . The aqua shoe that is equipped with an anti-slip structure of  claim 4 , wherein the outsole part includes hexagonal outsole units, for which six connections that lie at an equal interval with a suction part as the center connect six suction parts to constitute an outsole unit. 
     
     
         8 . The aqua shoe that is equipped with an anti-slip structure of  claim 1 , wherein the upper and insole part aforementioned are integrated via the Bonis sewing method by which the upper and the insole part confront each other at their edge. 
     
     
         9 . The aqua shoe that is equipped with an anti-slip structure of  claim 1 , further comprising a web part that extends forward from the outsole part front and pushes against the stream in the water, wherein the web part is curve upward to forward water expulsion. 
     
     
         10 . The aqua shoe that is equipped with an anti-slip structure of  claim 1 , wherein the suction part further includes a protuberance that protrudes downward from the center of the cup. 
     
     
         11 . The aqua shoe that is equipped with an anti-slip structure of  claim 1 , wherein the outsole part includes one or more openings that vertically penetrate outside the suction part. 
     
     
         12 . The aqua shoe that is equipped with an anti-slip structure of  claim 1 , wherein the outsole part includes connections that link the tops of the suction part one another. 
     
     
         13 . The aqua shoe that is equipped with an anti-slip structure of a claim of  claim 5 , wherein the inlay is provided with one or more grooves, and sinks that shape as a ring and are depressed upward. 
     
     
         14 . The aqua shoe that is equipped with an anti-slip structure of a claim of  claim 5 , wherein the area in the inlay that corresponds to the heel, which initially contacts on the ground surface and to which the highest pressure is applied in walking, is provided with a friction area in which a plurality of protuberances. 
     
     
         15 . The aqua shoe that is equipped with an anti-slip structure of  claim 12 , wherein the outsole part includes hexagonal outsole units, for which six connections that lie at an equal interval with a suction part as the center connect six suction parts to constitute an outsole unit. 
     
     
         16 . The aqua shoe that is equipped with an anti-slip structure of  claim 9 , wherein the web part is provided with one or more reinforcement ribs to prevent the web part from deforming to a certain extent. 
     
     
         17 . The aqua shoe that is equipped with an anti-slip structure of  claim 16 , wherein the vertical thickness of the reinforcement rib may be larger than the thickness of the rest of the web part. 
     
     
         18 . The aqua shoe that is equipped with an anti-slip structure of  claim 9 , wherein the web part is injection-molded as a single product integrated with the outsole part. 
     
     
         19 . The aqua shoe that is equipped with an anti-slip structure of  claim 4 , further comprising the insert that placed on and removed from the top of the insole, wherein the insert is provided with a plurality of conduits that link up with the openings of the outsole part. 
     
     
         20 . The aqua shoe that is equipped with an anti-slip structure of  claim 12 , further comprising the insert that placed on and removed from the top of the insole, wherein the insert is provided with a plurality of conduits that link up with the openings of the outsole part.
