View Patent ↗The insole has a number of flexible bulges on a first major surface, and a number of protruding ribs on a second major surface. The projections of the bulges fall within the regions bounded by the ribs. The bulges and their underlying bounding ribs therefore form a number of chambers. The insole further contains a number of through holes positioned between the ends of at least two ribs. The insole further contains a larger heel bulge provided on the first major surface in the heel section, and a concave on the second major surface, which is conducted to the other chambers via at least a duct.
1. An insole with ventilation, comprising:
a plurality of flexible bulges on a first major surface of said insole;
a plurality of protruding ribs on the other, second major surface of said insole; and
a plurality of through holes around said bulges conducting said first and second major surfaces;
wherein the projections of a bulge falls within the region bounded by said ribs, respectively; a plurality of chambers are formed by said bulges and their corresponding bounding ribs; and said chambers are conducted to adjacent through holes.
2. The insole according to claim 1 , further comprising
a heel bulge in the heel section on said first major surface; and
a concave in the heel section on said second major surface;
wherein the projection of said heel bulge falls within said concave; and said concave is conducted to said chambers via at least a duct.
