El elemento para calzado se aplica en especial para las zapatillas utilizadas por los ciclistas. El elemento se coloca sobre la suela del propio calzado, y contará el elemento con las oquedades apropiadas para que pueda encajar con los tacos propios que tienen en las suelas el calzado utilizado por los ciclistas. Gracias al elemento se permitirá al ciclista poder andar sobre el suelo con total comodidad, con un agarre adecuado. The shoe insert is specifically designed for cycling shoes. It fits over the sole of the shoe and features grooves that allow it to engage with the cleats on the shoe's sole. This insert provides the cyclist with a comfortable and secure grip on the ground.

SECTOR DE LA TÉCNICA TECHNICAL SECTOR

Por lo tanto, esta invención se circunscribe en el sector de la fabricación de accesorios para calzado, en especial para calzado deportivo. Therefore, this invention is circumscribed within the sector of the manufacture of footwear accessories, especially for sports footwear.

ESTADO DE LA TÉCNICA STATE OF THE ART

En el contexto del estado de la técnica para el diseño y fabricación de calzado, es importante destacar la relevancia de la ergonomía y la biomecánica en la creación de zapatos que promuevan una marcha cómoda y saludable. In the context of the state of the art for the design and manufacture of footwear, it is important to highlight the relevance of ergonomics and biomechanics in the creation of shoes that promote a comfortable and healthy gait.

Históricamente, el calzado ha evolucionado desde diseños meramente protectores hasta modelos que buscan mejorar la postura y el confort durante la caminata. Investigaciones en el campo de la podología y la ortopedia han demostrado que caminar con zapatos totalmente planos, es decir, sin ninguna elevación en la región del talón, puede no ser lo ideal para la salud podal y general del usuario. Las zapatillas empleadas por los ciclistas presentan en la suela una serie de tacos o anclajes para fijarse a los pedales automáticos de las bicicletas.Historically, footwear has evolved from purely protective designs to models that aim to improve posture and comfort while walking. Research in the fields of podiatry and orthopedics has shown that walking in completely flat shoes, that is, without any elevation in the heel area, may not be ideal for the wearer's foot and overall health. The shoes used by cyclists have a series of cleats or anchors on the sole to attach to the automatic pedals of the bicycles.

Cuando los ciclistas bajan de la bicicleta no pueden caminar de manera cómoda sobre el suelo, ya que dichos tacos son rígidos y les impiden andar con normalidad, además de que no presentan un agarre adecuado con el terreno y además se pueden dañar. When cyclists get off their bikes, they cannot walk comfortably on the ground, as the cleats are rigid and prevent them from walking normally, in addition to not providing adequate grip on the terrain and potentially being damaged.

Con el objetivo de solventar los problemas detallados se presenta la actual invención. With the aim of solving the problems detailed above, the current invention is presented.

Se desconoce la existencia de ningún producto con las mismas características técnicas que la invención que aquí se presenta. The existence of any product with the same technical characteristics as the invention presented here is unknown.
