"ORTHOPAEDIC SHOE" ABSTRACT This invention relates to an orthopaedic shoe in which the toe is turned up automatically during ambulation when the foot of the wearer is raised in order to be brought forward. A thin, flexible and resilient plate is provided beneath the sole, with the part nearest the toe of the shoe secured to the sole and the part nearest the heel being free and connected to a thrusting device concealed in the heel. The force applied to the free end of the plate by the thrusting device has an active component directed away from the sole which urges the toe of the shoe upwards. The present invention seeks to prevent the dragging of the toe of the foot along the ground as is encountered with respect to individuals with infirmities or malformations of the lower limbs.
