SYSTEMS, DEVICES, AND METHODS FOR CONTROLLING FLUID FLOW TRANSFER IN SHOES

摘要

The present subject matter relates to systems, devices, and methods for controlling fluid flow transfer in footwear in which a front chamber has a first inlet and a first outlet, a rear chamber has a second inlet and a second outlet, a first valve assembly is connected between the second outlet and the first inlet and is configured to allow fluid to pass unidirectionally from the rear chamber to the front chamber, and a second valve assembly is connected between the first outlet and the second inlet and is configured to allow fluid to pass unidirectionally from the front chamber to the rear chamber. In addition, one or both of the front chamber or the rear chamber can include one or more openings therethrough that are configured to allow fluid to pass into or out of the respective chamber with respect to a surrounding environment.
