20110061266 | ARTICLE OF FOOTWEAR THAT IS WATERPROOF, WEAR-RESISTANT, AND LIGHTWEIGHT - An article of footwear includes a sole body ( | 2011-03-17 |
20110061267 | Removable Footwear Cleat with Cushioning - A removable cleat for footwear. The cleat includes a disc with opposing faces. A shoe coupling element is attached to one face of the disc. The other disc face supports a cushioning layer. Traction elements are supported by the cushioning layer. When a user steps on a surface wearing a shoe outfitted with these cleats, the resilience of the cushioning layer at once both lessens the impact of the traction elements on the ground surface and lessens the reaction force on the user's foot transmitted through the shoe's outsole. The user's comfort is thereby enhanced. | 2011-03-17 |
20110061268 | SOLE HAVING THE TILT SURFACE AND THE KNEE JOINT-PROTECTING SHOE COMPRISING THE SAME - The present invention relates to a sole having a tilt surface, and to a knee joint-protecting shoe including same, and more particularly, to a sole having a tilt surface in which the tilt surface formed at the sole of a shoe enables the foot of a wearer to be inclined or slipped, inwardly or outwardly, in order to correct abnormality in the lower skeletal extremity, and uniformly distribute load on the knee joint of the wearer to prevent degenerative knee arthritis and alleviate pain, and to a knee joint-protecting shoe including the outsole. The present invention further comprises a sole having a tilt surface for attachment to the bottom surface of a shoe, wherein the outsole has a top surface and a bottom surface formed parallel to each other, a tilt structure including an upper member and a lower member defined by a tilt surface formed in the widthwise direction, and deformable members arranged at predetermined intervals from both front and rear ends of the shoe in a lengthwise direction to generate shear deformation in a tilted direction between the upper member and the lower member. | 2011-03-17 |
20110061271 | HYDRAULIC LOCKING MECHANISM FOR SECURING TOOTH CARRYING ADAPTERS TO LIPS OF EXCAVATING BUCKETS AND THE LIKE - A connection for firmly securing an adapter for detachably carrying a replaceable digging tooth at its front end to a lip of an excavating container of excavating equipment. The adapter has an upper leg and a lower leg located proximate respective upper and lower surfaces of the lip. The connection has substantially aligned openings in the legs and the lip, and engagement sections of the adapter legs traverse the opening in the lip proximate and forward of an aft end thereof. A pressure applying unit, such as a hydraulic actuator, is arranged inside the opening and generates a generally horizontally acting force which draws the adapter and the lip towards each other. A stress member, which can be a C-clamp, is operatively coupled to the hydraulic actuator and resiliently deforms relative to its relaxed shape when it is subjected to the horizontally acting force. A spacer, such as a wedge, is inserted between the hydraulic actuator and the openings while the horizontally acting force resiliently deforms the stress member. The wedge is shaped so that upon a reduction or cessation of the horizontally acting force the stress member, e.g. the C-clamp, remains in the resiliently deformed state in which it draws the adapter and the lip towards each other and keeps them immovably secured to each other until the wedge can be withdrawn following a repressurization of the hydraulic actuator. | 2011-03-17 |
