Application: Cushioning component for a wearable article (Patent ID: US20240206591A1)

The patent filed by NIKE Inc. describes a cushioning component for a wearable article, consisting of a bladder with a gas-filled interior cavity sealed by two barrier sheets and a core made of polymeric sheets bonded to the inner surfaces of the barrier sheets without creating sealed chambers. The core is designed to maintain the distance between the barrier sheets and can include blocker ink in unbonded areas. The core's thickness is limited, and the bonds can be arranged differently in various regions of the bladder, such as the forefoot and heel regions of footwear.

The claims detail the specific configurations and features of the cushioning component, including the use of a single polymeric sheet or multiple polymeric sheets in the core, different bonding patterns like linear or dot bonds, and variations in spacing and alignment of bonds in different regions of the bladder. The patent emphasizes the core's role in tethering the barrier sheets together while allowing fluid communication within the interior cavity, highlighting the innovative design elements aimed at enhancing cushioning performance in wearable articles, particularly footwear.
