Abstract

A shoe has an elastic heel which is formed of an elastic member. The elastic member is made of a material of a predetermined shape by bending. The elastic member is capable of deformation to provide a spring force for supporting and soothing the foot heel.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is:  
     
         1 . A shoe having an elastic heel, comprising: 
 a sole provided at a rear end with an upper heel portion, a lower heel portion, and a space located between said upper heel portion and said lower heel portion;    an upper connecting said sole; and    an elastic member having a pressed portion and a bottom support portion, which are respectively connected with said upper heel portion and said lower heel portion of said sole, and an elastic bending portion connecting said pressed portion and said bottom support portion, wherein said elastic curved portion have some portion locate in the space between said pressed portion and bottom support portion of said sole.    
     
     
         2 . The shoe as defined in  claim 1 , wherein said upper heel portion of said sole is connected at a rear end with a rear end of said lower heel portion.  
     
     
         3 . The shoe as defined in  claim 1 , wherein said upper heel portion of said sole is separated at a rear end thereof from a rear end of said lower heel portion.  
     
     
         4 . The shoe as defined in  claim 1 , wherein said upper heel portion of said sole and said lower heel portion are provided with a recessed portion to accommodate said elastic member.  
     
     
         5 . The shoe as defined in  claim 1 , wherein said elastic member is enclosed by said upper heel portion and said lower heel portion of said sole.  
     
     
         6 . The shoe as defined in  claim 1  further comprising a covering member for shielding an exposed portion of said elastic member.  
     
     
         7 . The shoe as defined in  claim 1 , wherein said elastic member is provided at a tail end of the bottom support portion with a warp end.  
     
     
         8 . The shoe as defined in  claim 1 , wherein said elastic member has a shape similar to the symbol of algebraic sum.  
     
     
         9 . The shoe as defined in  claim 1 , wherein said elastic member has an S shape.  
     
     
         10 . A shoe having an elastic heel, comprising: 
 a sole for supporting the human foot sole;    an upper connecting said sole;    a heel having an elastic member which is sequentially formed of a fastening portion, an elastic bending portion and a bottom support portion, said fastening portion being fastened with said sole such that said fastening portion is corresponding in location to the foot heel, said elastic bending portion capable of deformation enabling said fastening portion and said bottom support portion to displace in relation to each other, said bottom support portion supporting a portion corresponding in location to the ground surface.    
     
     
         11 . The shoe as defined in  claim 10 , wherein said heel has a bottom plate which is fastened to a portion of said elastic member such that said bottom plate is opposite to the ground surface.  
     
     
         12 . The shoe as defined in  claim 10 , wherein said bottom plate is fastened with a portion of said elastic member, with said portion being corresponding in location to the ground surface.  
     
     
         13 . The shoe as defined in  claim 10 , wherein said heel has a covering member which covers said elastic member.  
     
     
         14 . The shoe as defined in  claim 13 , wherein said covering member is provided with a recessed portion for accommodating said elastic member.  
     
     
         15 . The shoe as defined in  claim 10 , wherein said bottom support portion of said elastic member of said heel is provided with a warp end.  
     
     
         16 . The shoe as defined in  claim 10 , wherein said elastic member has a C shape.  
     
     
         17 . The shoe as defined in  claim 10 , wherein said elastic member has a shape similar to the symbol of algebraic sum.  
     
     
         18 . The shoe as defined in  claim 10 , wherein said elastic member has an S shape.  
     
     
         19 . The shoe as defined in  claim 10 , wherein said elastic member has an O shape.
