摘要

The shock-absorber for shoe-heels is mounted in a recess in the heel. The recess is closed at its base (9) and vertical sides, but open at the top. The mounting for the shock absorber comprises a top compartment (4) which protrudes downwardly, thereby forming an intermediate space (14) between the inner sole and the sole of the shoe (11). The top compartment (4) pref. contains an incompressible fluid, and a lower compartment (8) is open at its base connected with the atmosphere through the sides of the cavity.
