Bladder with inverted edge seam and method of making the bladder

A bladder (36) which is particularly useful for a sole assembly of a shoe is formed of multiple layers of barrier film to provide multiple pressurized layers of cushioning fluid or gas when the bladder is filled. A multiple gas layer bladder enhances cushioning response by relying more on the response characteristics of the gas and reducing the amount of foam and the dependence on foam as a cushioning material. The internal film layers (42,44) provide a truss-like geometry in cross section and act as tensile members to impart a generally smooth surface contour to the bladder. The bladder (36) is constructed to provide complex regionalized cushioning profiles which are coupled to the anatomy of the foot and expected loads at known points. The sidewalls of the bladder can be constructed with an inverted seam construction to eliminate finishing steps in the manufacture of cushioning bladders and alternatively to provide a clean, seamless appearance along the sidewalls. The inverted seam can be formed by attaching the peripheral edges of inner barrier layers (42,44) to the outer barrier layers (38,40) adjacent a weld between inner barrier layers to provide an inside-out inverted seam appearance. An inverted seam can also be formed by providing separate sidewall elements attached to the barrier layers of the bladder to provide a seam displaced from the center of the sidewall.

신발의 신발 밑창 조립체에 특히 유용한 블래더는 블래더가 충전될 때 완충 유체 또는 가스의 다중 가압 층을 제공하도록 배리어 필름의 다층으로 형성된다. 복합 가스 층 블래더는 가스의 응답 특성에 보다 의존하고 완충재로서 폼의 양과 폼에대한 의존성을 감소시켜 완충 응답을 향상시킨다. 내부 필름 층은 단면에서 트러스 형상의(truss-like) 형태를 제공하고 인장 부재로서 작용하여 블래더에 대체로 유연한 표면 윤곽을 부여한다. 블래더는 발의 해부학적 형상과 공지된 지점에서 예상되는 하중에 부합되는 복잡한 지역적 완충 프로파일을 제공하도록 구성된다. 블래더의 측벽은 이면 시임 구성으로 구성될 수 있어 완충 블래더의 제조에서의 마무리 단계를 없애고 또한 측벽을 따라서 청결하고, 시임이 없는 외관을 제공한다. 이면 시임은 내측 배리어 층의 주변 에지를 내측 배리어 층 사이의 용접부 부근의 외측 배리어 층에 부착함으로써 형성되어 이면 시임 외관을 제공한다. 이면 시임은 또한 측벽의 중앙으로부터 오프셋된 시임을 제공하도록 블래더의 배리어 층에 부착된 분리된 측벽 요소를 제공함으로써 형성될 수 있다. Particularly useful bladders for shoe sole assemblies of shoes are formed into multiple layers of barrier film to provide multiple pressurized layers of buffer fluid or gas when the bladder is filled. The composite gas layer bladder is more dependent on the response characteristics of the gas and improves the buffer response by reducing the amount of foam and its dependence on the foam as a cushion. The inner film layer provides a truss-like shape in cross section and acts as a tension member to give the bladder a generally flexible surface profile. The bladder is configured to provide a complex regional cushioning profile that matches the anatomical shape of the foot and the expected load at known points. The sidewalls of the bladder can be configured in a backside seam configuration, eliminating the finishing steps in the manufacture of the buffer bladder and also providing a clean, seamless appearance along the sidewalls. The back seam is formed by attaching a peripheral edge of the inner barrier layer to an outer barrier layer near the weld between the inner barrier layers to provide a back seam appearance. The back seam can also be formed by providing a separate sidewall element attached to the barrier layer of the bladder to provide a seam offset from the center of the sidewall.

Thinning down machine for leather stampings

When sewing or fitting the edges of stampings of leather or similar flexible material, it is necessary that materials that are rather thick should be thinned down on their peripheries; the machine effects this operation by means of a band cutter. The pieces to be trimmed vertically are placed on a loading plate which can be moved along an upper guide track towards the cutting edge of the band to arrive at a removal position; a lower guide track serves to bring the loading plate back to the placing position. In the latter, magazines containing a supply of stampings are mounted over the loading plate above the different suction fixing positions which are located according to the shapes of the different pieces to be dressed. These magazines allow of the attainment of a certain degree of automation and the risk of accident is eliminated.

Therefore, the plastic semi product can be firmly positioned and held tight, and then the mechanical arm can trim the plastic semi product under the guiding of the restricting edge and the support edge, which makes the trimming process easy and precise.

Improvements in or relating to Cutting Presses

1,191,901. Cutting-out presses. BRITISH UNITED SHOE MACHINERY CO. Ltd. 17 April, 1967 [15 April, 1966], No. 17520/67. Heading B4B. [Also in Division F2] A cutting press comprises a lower platen 12 supporting a conductive cutting pad 13 on which material 14 to be cut and a cutting die 16 are supported, and an upper platen 30 which is supported by a carriage 22 movable transversely of the platen 12 by hydraulically powered means, the platen 30 being movable towards the platen 12 by means including a hydraulic ram mounted on the carriage. The carriage is provided with rollers 24 movable along a pair of rails 20. The platen 30 is supported at the lower end of a vertically slidable cylinder 28 mounted in a cylindrical bearing block 26 supported by the carriage. Mounted on a cover-plate 38 is a hollow pistonrod 40 which carries a piston 42 slidably accommodated in the cylinder 28. The piston-rod 40 and piston 42 have a bore extending therethrough by means of which, through a flexible hydraulic hose 44, a chamber formed in the cylinder 28 below the piston 42 is connected with a source of pressure fluid from a pump 48 driven from an electric motor 50 and flywheel 50a. Springs 34 urge the platen 30 upwardly to its raised position away from the platen 12. For moving the carriage 22, and thus the platen 30, transversely of the platen 12 there is provided a screwthreaded rod 60 driven by a reversible hydraulic motor 68, the rod 60 threadedly engaging a nut 64. Electrical control means are provided to enable the press to be operated in a number of different modes and to this end the control means comprises electrical timer devices for controlling the return stroke of the platen 30 after cutting, the retreating movement of the carriage 22, and the return movement of the carriage. In addition, the platen 30 is provided with two hand sensing heads 510 (see Division F2) and with two die sensing heads 600 which are provided in electrical circuits to control the retreating and return ...

Improvements in or relating to starting and stopping mechanism of power driven machines

539,584. Starting and stopping mechanism for machines. BRITISH UNITED SHOE MACHINERY CO., Ltd., HEATHER, C. H., and KEALL, F. B. March 14, 1940, Nos. 4767 and 14639. [Class 80 (ii)] [Also in Group XXXIV] In power driven machines, such as presses, in which a dog 24 co-operates with a lever 26 for actuating brake and clutch apparatus for starting and stopping the machine, the dog 24 instead of being pivoted to a purely reciprocating point 17 of the connecting rod 16, as hitherto, is pivoted to the connecting rod 16 on a pivot 29 offset from the pivot 17. Thus the brake actuated by the lever 26 will continue to operate even should the machine shaft 12 slightly overrun. Means for preventing actuation of the mechanism should the machine get out of adjustment are provided. In the revolution press shown, the lever 26 actuates a clutch and a band brake in a manner such as described in Specifications 4833/13, [Class 80 (ii)], and 498,469. In the position shown the dog 24 engages the lever 26 and is held against an abutment 38 on the vertically reciprocable cross-head 18 by a spring 36. The dog 24 has a trip plate 34 engaging a trip plate 30 on a bar 32. The latter at one end has a pin-and-slot connection with a link 40 pivoted to a link 50 articulated to the lever 26, and at the other end has a roller 56 slideble in a guideway 54 in a link 48 pivoted to a treadle 96. The left-hand end of the bar 32 is urged upwardly by a spring 58, but upward movement is prevented by an abutment 42 on the bar 32 engaging a pawl 46 pivoted to the link 48. The treadle 96 has a vertical arm 95 connected by a rod 97 passing through a slotted block 98 pivoted to the link 40. In operation the treadle 96 is depressed to move the rod 97 and hence the bar 32 to the left. The trip plate 30 through the trip plate 34 disengages the dog 24 from the lever 26 so that the latter is free to engage the clutch and release the brake mechanism. When the shaft 12 has rotated through one revolution the dog 24 re- ...

Shoe Sole Trimming Machine

Improvements in and relating to machines for operating on the edges of soles attached to footwear

646,372. Edge-setting. BATA, NARODNI PODNIK. Sept. 17, 1946, No. 27831. Convention date, March 23, 1943. [Class 17(i)] A machine, for operating on a sole edge attached to a shoe in which the work support moves the sole past the tool support, has means which, when released, allows the tool post to be moved in two directions relative to the sole edge. In the edge-setting machine described, a shoe support 1, Fig. 1, is mounted for vertical and rotary movement at 2, 3. A cam system 4 on a shaft 42 driven from a motor 35 imparts the rotary motion through a toothed segment 8 and pinion 9, while a cam shaft 16 gives the vertical sliding motion through a shaft 22 and a chain and sprocket wheel connection to the slide 2. Rollers 5, 17 are kept in contact with the cams by compressed air cylinders. A bracket 50, Figs. 1, 2, is rotatable about a post 52, when a locking pin 48 is withdrawn from a recess 49 at predetermined moments in the cycle of operations on the sole, and has attached to it four levers 51, 51<SP>1</SP> pivoted for vertical movement at 53, 53<SP>1</SP>. Supported at one end is a drive transmitting device 54 and tool support 55, and at the other end, and acting also as a counterpoise, a motor 56. To one lever 51<SP>1</SP> a cylinder 60 is attached so that, when pressure is admitted below the piston 61, it is forced against an adjustable screw 62 in an arm 63 of the bracket 50, so that the tool is forced down on the sole edge against the action of a spring 64 attaching the motor end of the levers to the bracket 50. Two tools 80, 80<SP>1</SP> for operating on left and right shoes are mounted in the post on pins 91, 91<SP>1</SP>, and are moved into working position by a pneumatic cylinder 93 when operated by a valve .A toolheater 94 is provided. The oscillatory rotational movement of the tools is transmitted from the motor by a flexible belt 58 to a pulley 57, which drives a shaft 97 having an offset post ...
