US Patent:

6665958, Dec 23, 2003

Filed:

Sep 17, 2001

Appl. No.:

09/953978

Inventors:

David Goodwin - Portland OR

Assignee:

Nike, Inc. - Beaverton OR

International Classification:

A43B 1320

US Classification:

36 29, 36 31, 36 35 B, 36 35 R

Abstract:

A protective cage for footwear bladders is disclosed. The protective cage includes a cage base and a plurality of support members that extend outwardly from the cage base. The support members extend across the side wall of the bladder to protect the device from abrasion and to prevent fatigue. The use of the support members, which selectively bend and buckle under loaded conditions, control the amount of perimeter deflection of the bladder, while allowing for complete deflection at the center of the bladder.

Appl. No.:

10/642262

Inventors:

Edward N. Thomas - Portland OR, US
David Goodwin - Portland OR, US

Assignee:

NIKE, Inc. - Beaverton OR

International Classification:

B32B 1/04
A43B 13/20

US Classification:

428 69, 428 71, 428 86, 36 29

Abstract:

The invention relates to a fluid-filled bladder and a method for making for making a fluid-filled bladder that include a core having at least one fusing filament. A portion of the fusing filament is positioned adjacent to the exterior surface of the core such that it engages and fuses to barrier layers of the bladder, thereby securing the core to the barrier layers without the need for an additional fusing agent therebetween.

Appl. No.:

10/704566

Inventors:

David A. Goodwin - Portland OR, US

Assignee:

NIKE, Inc. - Beaverton OR

International Classification:

A43B 13/20

US Classification:

36 29, 36 35 B, 36 28

Abstract:

A fluid-filled bladder for an article of footwear is disclosed that includes a sealed outer barrier and a tensile member. The barrier is substantially impermeable to a fluid contained by the bladder, and the tensile member is located within the barrier and bonded to opposite sides of the barrier. The tensile member defines a flexion area that promotes flexing of a first portion of the bladder with respect to a second portion of the bladder. The flexion area is an area where the tensile member is absent, and the flexion area may have the configuration of a space, aperture, or indentation, for example.

Appl. No.:

11/242607

Inventors:

David A. Goodwin - Portland OR, US
Gerald Edwin Crowley - Beaverton OR, US

Assignee:

NIKE, Inc. - Beaverton OR

International Classification:

A43B 13/20

US Classification:

36 29, 36 28, 36 35 B, 36 37

Abstract:

An article of footwear is disclosed that includes an upper and a sole structure secured to the upper. The sole structure incorporates a support element that includes a fluid-filled chamber, a first insert, and a second insert. The chamber defines a first surface, an opposite second surface, and a sidewall extending between the first surface and the second surface. The first insert is secured to the first surface and at least partially recessed into the polymer material of the chamber, and the second insert is secured to the second surface. In addition, the chamber may be pressurized to deform the first insert or the second insert.
