IMPROVED FOOT-SCRAPER.

TO ALL WHOM I'I MAY CONCERN:
Be-it known that I, JAMES WHAIT, of Springfield, Missouri, have invented certain new und useful i1nprovements in Scrapers fopCleaning Boots and Shoes; and I hereby declare that the following is-a true, full, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon,
Figure I in the'annexed drawings, which make a part of this specication, represents a front view ofl my scraper.
Figure 2 is aplan view of the concave adjustahleljuw.
Figure 3 is an end view of the cla-mp'.
l 'The lett-er A, in iig. 1, designates the base of the scraper, which will be fastened to the step by screws; B represents the scraper, which consists of a vertical plate of iron, cast solid with the base A. Near the ends of A are the Hanges C, which are east solid with scraper B and base A, and intended in part to give additional strength to said scraper. In a line with flanges C are placed the vertical clamps D, each of which is composed of two' jaws, one of each brace ofjaws being cast solid with scraper B, and the two oppositejaws being hinged to their respective {langes land conned together near their top by a screw-bolt, g. i The jaws D are concave t0 within a short distance of their top, but leaving a plane surface of near the eighth of an inch in width on the face of' the jaw. It will be observed that when the jaws are screwed together the material within them will be compressed bythe flat margin of the jaws, and will, consequently, expand in the concave, and thus hold the shucks firmly in position.
In operating my scraper, rst unscrew the bolt that holds the jaws together, then insert between them the shucks or rags previously prepared for the purpose. This being done, screw up the nut as far as it will go, and thescraper will be ready for use, and will clean the sides of shoes or boots, as well as the bottom.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
'Ihe hinged hollow sides D D, in combination with scraper B, all constructed and arranged as and for the vpurpose set forth.
JAMES WHAIT.
