241 Method for applying hot melt adhesive powder onto a shoe or sole part US14014143 2013-08-29 US08808809B2 2014-08-19 Jakov Makover; Bar Cochva Mardix; Yaacov Sadeh
A method for applying hot melt adhesive powder onto a sole or shoe part includes the steps of applying a cleaning agent, irradiating, applying a conductive liquid which has a conductivity at least 100 times higher than purified water which has a conductivity of 5.5·10−6 S/m, spraying hot melt adhesive powder; and heating. The method can save energy, reduce the working space, reduce the labor intensity and improve the working environment by continuously carrying out the spraying and the melting operation of the hot melt adhesive.

244 Automated Strobel Printing US13610207 2012-09-11 US20140068878A1 2014-03-13 Yong-Joo Chon; Doo Young Kim; Young Gwan Kim
A machine moves shoe strobels to a camera or scanner where images of the strobels are captured. Using the images, a computing device instructs a printer how to mark guidelines on the strobels that signify one or more strobel sewing lines for different shoes models and shoe sizes. Cross-sectional lines may also be printed on the strobels to aid in error-checking guideline marking. Unmarked strobels are stacked in a loading compartment, sometimes in pairs—e.g., right and left shoe strobels. The unmarked strobels are transferred to a conveyor that brings the strobels to the camera or scanner and the printer. After guidelines and/or cross-sectional lines are added to the strobels, the marked strobels are stacked in a compartments housing other marked strobels.
245 METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING INFLATABLE BLADDERS FOR USE IN FOOTWEAR AND OTHER ARTICLES OF MANUFACTURE US14033129 2013-09-20 US20140059890A1 2014-03-06 Paul M. DAVIS; Frank Millette; Paul E. Litchfield
The present invention is a method for manufacturing inflatable bladders for use in articles of manufacture. The method includes the steps of providing a first polymer film, applying a curable release coating to the polymer film in a pattern that corresponds to the configuration of the inflatable bladder, curing the release coating to the first polymer film, providing a second polymer film with the first polymer film to form a layered element such that the release coating is disposed between the polymer films, positioning the layered element between two plies of material, applying heat and pressure to adhere the polymer films together except in the area where the release coating has been applied to form an inflatable compartment surrounded by a sealed perimeter, and removing the plies of material from the adhered first and second polymer films.

254 Utilizing a printer to customize apparel in a retail facility US12615834 2009-11-10 US08348371B2 2013-01-08 Sean McDowell; Steve Horn; Dave Powers; Brandon Avery; Bryan Cioffi
Customized articles of footwear are produced by providing options and graphics that are selected by a customer when submitting a custom order at a retail facility. The graphics are selected from a catalog while the options, such as a shoe model or a shoe size, are selected at an order interface rendered at a computing device. The computing device processes the order by uploading printing instructions associated with the customer-selected graphic or by converting specifications of the order into the printing instructions. The printing instructions are passed to a printer that is configured to move inkjet nozzles in a pattern and, concurrently, control a timed release of coloring agent from the inkjet nozzles based on the printing instructions. Releasing the coloring agent over the article of footwear physically applies a design thereto, which substantially resembles the customer-selected graphic. An oven typically cures the design via infrared heat over a timeframe.
