Full or partial footweat attaching anti-slip surface gripper

Abstract

Full or partial footwear attaching anti slip surface grippers that one would wear over footwear to prevent slipping on slippery surfaces (comprising snowy, icy, watery, oily, greasy, waxy, soapy surfaces, etc . . . ) comprising, a footwear attaching mechanism that partially or fully covers footwear and secures the surface gripping mechanism to the full or partial bottom sole of footwear. The full or partial footwear attaching anti slip surface grippers are easily/conveniently detached or attached to footwear, are inexpensive, lightweight, cosmetically appealing, adjustable, easy to store, makes it possible for the people to have surface gripping ability outside of the sports arena where special purpose or sporting surface gripping shoes (mountain boots, snow shoes, snow sandals, football, baseball, or golf cleats) are worn and reduces the number of injuries from falls on ice in the winter.

I claim:  
     
         1 . A full or partial footwear attaching anti slip surface gripper that one would wear over a footwear to safely prevent slipping on a slippery surface (comprising snowy, icy, watery, oily, greasy, waxy, soapy surfaces, etc . . . ) and that is more quickly/easily/conveniently attached to or detached from said footwear, is more compact, less expensive, more lightweight, more cosmetically appealing, smaller, easier to store or carry than existing special gripping shoes (mountain boots, snow shoes, snow sandals, sporting cleats, etc . . . ), and provides the everyday walker with a casual and more convenient way of obtaining anti slip prevention outside of the sport or hobby arena, comprising 
 (a) a footwear attaching mechanism whereby on the said full footwear attaching anti slip surface gripper, the said footwear attaching mechanism covers the entire bottom of said footwear extending above the sole ending below the ankle and whereby on the said partial footwear attaching anti slip surface gripper the said footwear attaching mechanism only covers a partial section of said footwear comprising the front, middle, or back section of said footwear    (b) a surface gripping mechanism whereby on the said full footwear attaching anti slip surface gripper the said surface gripping mechanism can cover all or a partial section underneath footwear and whereby on the said partial footwear attaching anti slip surface gripper the said surface gripping mechanism only covers a partial section underneath said footwear comprising the front, middle, or back section of said footwear    whereby when said full or partial footwear attaching anti slip surface grippers are attached to said footwear using said footwear attaching mechanism the said footwear attaching mechanism secures said surface gripping mechanism against the bottom sole of said footwear,    whereby when said surface gripping mechanism is secured to the bottom sole of said footwear while the user walks across said slippery surface the said surface gripping mechanism makes contact with said slippery surface and provides anti slip friction to aid the user in becoming stable enough to prevent slipping and falling on said slippery surface.    
     
     
         2 . The system claim of  1  wherein said footwear attaching mechanism comprising of a plurality of materials, shapes, sizes, members, member connecting means, locations around or attachments to said full or partial footwear attaching anti slip surface gripper.  
     
     
         3 . The system claim of  1  wherein the said surface gripping attachment mechanism comprising of a plurality of materials, shapes, sizes, members, member connecting means, locations around or attachments to said full or partial footwear attaching anti slip surface gripper.  
     
     
         4 . The system claim of  1  wherein the said full or partial footwear attaching anti slip surface grippers are secured to footwear by means comprising of strings, Velcro, straps, buckles, snap buckles, snap button, zippers, tacks, nails, staples, screws, loops, elastic band etc . . .  
     
     
         5 . The system claim of  1  wherein the said full or partial footwear attaching anti slip surface gripper's said gripping attachment mechanism comprises surface grippers, a gripper support attachment, and a gripper attaching means.  
     
     
         6 . The system claim of  5  wherein the said surface grippers are attached to the gripper support attachment by a gripper attaching means comprising screwing, gluing, welding, molding, bolting, crimping, press fitting, spin joint connecting, enclosed between fabric by sewing the fabric, etc . . . and made from one or a plurality of pieces.  
     
     
         7 . The system claim of  5  wherein the said surface grippers comprising of a plurality of materials, shapes, sizes, members, member connecting means, locations around or attachments to said full or partial footwear attaching anti slip surface grippers  
     
     
         8 . The system claim of  5  wherein the said gripper support attachment comprising of a plurality of materials, shapes, sizes, members, member connecting means, locations around or attachments to said full or partial footwear attaching anti slip surface grippers  
     
     
         9 . The system claim of  1  wherein the said full or partial footwear attaching anti slip surface grippers are used in the winter time by the everyday walking person, outside of the sports or hobby arena, to prevent one from slipping on snow or ice.  
     
     
         10 . The system claim of  1  wherein the surface gripping mechanism and footwear attaching mechanism can be replaceable in which each item can be sold separately.
