摘要:
The present invention is directed to a three-component releasable mounted cleat assembly for interlocking into a receptacle of a golf shoe A locking component is biasly inserted into an open receptacle in the shoe and has a geometric construction of downwardly extending tongues causes a requirement for a greater torque remove the cleat than was necessary to install it. An outer component which is coupled to the locking component provides a plurality of rigid posts extending outward for firmly gripping turf. The posts have an exterior wall surface extending vertically from a base and are confined within the outer perimeter of the base. An inner component is secured within the outer component and has a plurality of resilient legs extending outward in a radial direction and originating from a central area of the component.

Active-response golf shoes are disclosed. The golf shoes include at least one sensor, a controller, and at least one active-response element. The sensor and controller operate to rapidly determine if a golfer is walking or swinging a golf club. Once this determination is made the controller and active-response element rapidly change the shoe's characteristics. If the controller determines that the golfer is walking, the shoe provides a soft and flexible walking platform. If the controller determines that the golfer is swinging, the shoe morphs or changes automatically to provide a stable hitting platform. The controller senses various predetermined conditions such as pressure under the ball of the user's foot to determine whether the golfer is walking or swinging. The active-response elements may be a sole adjuster, a lace adjuster, and/or an upper adjuster. Methods of determining the golfer's type of movement are also disclosed.

A footbed is disclosed that is for use with a shoe. The footbed includes static and dynamic chambers for cushioning a wearer's foot. The static chambers are isolated from one another and the dynamic chambers. The dynamic chambers are in fluid communication and fluid therein is free to flow during a wearer's walk cycle.
