Abstract

The present invention relates to a shoe for a bicycle wherein a shoe can be easily coupled to a bicycle pedal and can be conveniently separated from the pedal even without the installation of a toe clip for enabling a shoe to be inserted into a bicycle pedal. The shoe for a bicycle is formed in such a way that the front portion of a sole provided beneath a main body of a shoe is high and the back portion gradually becomes lower than the front portion, and a coupling groove is formed beneath the front portion of the sole so as to allow a pedal to be coupled or separated. Even if a toe clip for enabling a shoe to be inserted into a bicycle pedal is not installed, a shoe can be easily coupled to a bicycle pedal and can be conveniently separated from the pedal.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A shoe for a bicycle, comprising:
 a shoe sole which is installed at an underneath of a shoe body with the front side of the shoe sole being higher, and the rear side of the shoe sold being gradually lowered than the front side of the shoe sole; and   an engaging groove which is formed at a front lower side of the shoe sole, the pedal of the bicycle being engaged to and disengaged from the engaging groove.   
     
     
         2 . A shoe for a bicycle according to  claim 1 , wherein said engaging groove is formed at a 2/4 portion from the front side of the shoe for the purpose of transferring force thereto by means of the front side of the foot sole. 
     
     
         3 . A shoe for a bicycle according to  claim 1 , wherein said engaging groove is formed at a 2/4 portion from the front side of the shoe for the purpose of transferring force thereto by means of the front side of the foot sole. 
     
     
         4 . A shoe for a bicycle formed of a shoe body, and a shoe sole engaged to an underneath of the shoe body, comprising;
 an engaging groove which is formed at a shoe sole for an engagement with a pedal of a bicycle.   
     
     
         5 . A shoe for a bicycle formed of a shoe body, and a shoe sole engaged to an underneath of the shoe body, comprising;
 an engaging groove formed at the shoe sole in such a way that the height of one side “c” coming into contact with the surface of a pedal is lower, and the other side “d” is higher, so one side of the engaging groove is slanted, for the purpose of ensuring that force when being engaged with the pedal of the bicycle can be reliably transferred.
