IMPROVEMENT IN BURNISHERS FOR BOOTS ANDISHOES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 133,301, dated November 26, 1872.
material, covered with a coating of nickel or' cobalt, or a burnisher made of solid nickel or cobalt, which metals are especially adapted for burnishers` of any kind, on account of their hardness and the fine polish that can be profduced on their surfaces.
My invention also consists in a new construction of a hand-burnisher made of a semicircular (or nearly so) form,having one flat (or nearly so) surface,
and provided with one or more projecting curved lips, by means of which I am able to reach and burnish any part or corners on the shank, sole, and heel of a boot or shoe, as will now be fully shown and described.
On the drawing, Fi gure l represents a ground plan. Fig. 2 represents a side elevation, and Figs. 3 over the line A B on Figs. 1 and`2.
Similar letters refer to similar parts wherever they occur on the drawing.
a Vis the burnisher, provided with handles b b in the usual way. The upper side ot' the burnisher a is made dat, or nearly so, lbut the under side of the burnisher is made of a semicircular (or nearly so) form, as shown in Figs. 3 and 4.. The burnisher a is provided'with one. or more projecting lips, o, by the construction of which I am able to reach and burnish any part ofthe boot or shoe, and especially so when the heel is made of a fancy shape, or the halfsole jointed to the boot or shoe with a curved end, as often'is the case on certain kinds of 4 work.
By the construction of my burnisher, as shown and et represent'cross-section taken in the drawing, having the projecting curved lip c, one or more, and the attened upper surface, I can easily burnish the shank of a boot or shoe lclose up to the heel, or anywhere where a sharp corner is located. This could not be accomplished on the ordinary burnishers, over which my invention is a great advantage. My burnisher I make either of solid nickel or cobalt, or I make it of iron, steel, &o., and coat it afterward with a layer of nickel or cobalt. I have found by experiments that the blackin g does not adhere to a nickel or cobalt surface, which surfaces, being very hard and of a great polish, will accomplish the burnishing of boots or shoes quicker and better than what could be done with the ordinary steel or iron burnishers. a
A burnisher made either solid or plated with nickel or cobalt may also be used to great advantage, revolving on a shaft or otherwise in a machine; and I do not confine my nickel or cobalt surface to this kind of hand-burnisher alone, as such a metal or metals may be used with the same advantage on any kind of burand described.
2. Aburnisher for boots or shoes, made either solid or plated with a coating of nickel or cobalt, for the purpose as herein fully set forth and described.
