PURPOSE:To encase shoes efficiently in the subsequent process by properly arranging and conveying right and left shoes in pair which have been released from molds separately. CONSTITUTION:In the first conveyer 11, a pair of shoes S1, S2 which are separately released from left and right foot molds and placed at a space therebetween with each toe arranged in the same direction, are transported in the direction orthogonal to the longitudinal direction thereof. The second conveyer 12 is adapted to transport both shoes sequentially in the same direction. The conveyer 12 is provided with a stopper 3 which is disposed approximately orthogonal to the direction of transporting both shoes and is adapted to stop the moving of both shoes to be arranged properly. The third conveyer 13 is disposed adjacent to the conveyer 12. Thus, left and right shoes separately released from foot molds by a shoes releasing device can be arranged in pair and conveyed, so as to perform succeeding encasing and checking operations efficiently. | ||||||

48 | A CLIP FOR REMOVABLY FIXING AND HOLDING A NUMBER OF SHOES | EP03793610.1 | 2003-09-05 | EP1538949B1 | 2007-04-11 | HOLM, Jesper |
A clip (1; 20; 23) serves for removably fixing a number of shoes (9). The clip (9) comprises a, seen in cross section, U-shaped frame (2; 21) with two opposite jaws (7, 8; 19; 22; 23, 24) defining a space (10; 26) for tightly receiving the shoes (9), and the frame (2; 21) and/or the jaws (7, 8; 19; 22; 23, 24) are arranged to at least partially enlarge the space (10; 26) elastically on insertion of a shoe (9). The two opposite jaws (7, 8; 19; 22; 23, 24) are placed on the inside of each their respectively first (5) and second legs (6) of the U-shaped frame and are exerting a clamping force on an inserted shoe. Furthermore, the frictional force between the shoe and the jaws contributes to holding the shoe. In the preferred embodiment at least one of the jaws is a brush. The shoe holder advantageously keeps shoes hung on e.g. a wall so that they do not take up any floor space. | ||||||

A shoe support for supporting lasts of a wide range of sizes comprises two support members in the form of spaced-apart bars (38) each of which can pivot at an axis (36) extending adjacent an elongated edge of its associated bar so that the distance between the ends of the bars can be varied. Instead of bars (38), plate members (138) may be used, dimensioned so as to provide a substantially continuous support surface, for e.g. shoe components, when pivoted to a horizontal position. For maintaining the support members (38;138) in adjusted position, furthermore, a friction arrangement (40,42; 144,146) is provided. The shoe support is especially suitable for use in a shoe transporter system forming part of a drying apparatus in which the bottoms of shoes and/or shoe components to which a coating of e.g. adhesive has been applied can be supported by the shoe supports with the coated surfaces exposed to turbulent air and heat. |

Foam items may be buffed using particles such as particulate sodium bicarbonate in accordance with the present invention. Foam items may be, for example, expanded EVA foam items pre-formed into an intermediate size and shape. A skin layer may be formed during the expansion of the foam item to form an expanded foam item which may be entirely or partially removed by buffing the item using particles projected with selected buffing parameters. The buffing parameters may be varied based upon the thickness of at least a portion of the skin layer and/or the desired degree of moldability for the foam item after buffing. Particulate sodium bicarbonate or other types of particles used for buffing may be recycled and reused for further buffing of foam items. | ||||||
