Fabric closure elements of the hook type in place on certain of the straps engage the loop pile on a companion strap to retain the cover on a piece of footwear.
Description
SOLE COVER FOR WORK SHOES OR BOOTS
The present invention may be termed a shoe or boot sole cover for protecting a floor, carpeting, rugs, etc. from foreign matter.
Work shoes or boots often become contaminated by dirt, oil and grease, chemicals requiring changing of footwear when entering a home or office. Such changing constitutes a nuisance and requires that additional footwear must be made available at entry locations. Where there are several workers, pairs of shoes, slippers and the like must be available at the entry area.
A solution to the foregoing problem is proposed by providing an over-the-shoe (or boot) cover for temporary installation on contaminated footwear. Cost, ease of use, durability, convenient storage, range of sizes are some of the considerations entering into providing a desirable over-the-shoe (or boot) article or cover.
U. S. Patent Application 2003/0226281 discloses an article having a fibrous sole formed from a sheet of felt with multiple front and rear straps stitched thereto.
U. S. Patent Application 202/0148138 discloses a floor protective cover having an upper with an elastic opening for she reception and is of neoprene, rubber or the like.
U. S. Patent 5,056,240 discloses an overshoe intended for use by someone doing gardening who finds it necessary to periodically enter the home with dirty or contaminated footwear. The article is of molded material having a sole and an upper closeable about an article of footwear with an adjustable strap secwed by a fabric closure.
A tab facilitates retention of the overshoe during shoe entry.
U. S. Patent 5,694,704 discloses an adhesive sheet sized and shaped to permit attachment to a work shoe with the sheet overlapping a portion of the shoe upper for protection from overspray from a commercial spray booth. The cover and strap securing the cover in place are formed from a sheet of adhesive bearing material.
U. S. Patent application publication U. S. 2003/0230006 discloses a cover for a shoe or boot sole intended for use by workers at a work station over long periods of time to provide a resilient anti-fatigue layer which is otherwise provided by resilient mats at a work station. The cover includes a sole of synthetic fibrous material which resiliently supports a shoe or boot. An array of straps in conjunction with front and rear sole mounted tabs serve to attach the cover to the footwear with two strap ends provided with fabric closwe members. Front, side and rear tabs in place on the sole of one embodiment serve to connect the plurality of straps engageable with the toe, sides and heel portion of a piece of footwear. The cover is apparently intended for use over a substantial period of time as it entails a degree of effort for footwear attachment.
U. S. Patent 5,659,978discloses the use of interconnected toe straps directed through a common ring with some of the straps reversed for attachment purposes. It appears as if the disclosed article is more or less for attachment to a piece of footwear for a considerable duration.
U. S. Patent Application Publication 2004/0006893 shows a shoe attachment having a relatively thick pad for placement beneath a shoe sole with front and rear straps passing through the pad for buckled attachment about a work shoe.

Figure 1 is a perspective view of a work shoe with the cover in place;
Figures 2 and 3 are top and bottom plan views with the cover detached from the work shoe;
Figure 4 is a vertical section taken along line 4-4 of Figure l;
Figure 5 is an enlarged view of a portion of Figure 4;
Figure 6 is an elevational view of a rack with stored covers;
Figure 7 is a top plan view of a modified cover.
With continuing attention to the drawings wherein applied reference numerals indicate parts similarly hereinafter identified, the reference numeral I
indicates generally a sole of the present cover which is of a length to extend somewhat beyond the length of a shoe or boot sole and a heel. A surface at 2 to be protected from dirt or debris on the footwear is indicated generally at F.
With continuing attention to the sole 1 of the cover, the same is of a width to provide side margins as at 4 extending laterally beyond the sides of a footwear sole and heel. Similarly, the cover sole 1 extends lengthwise to a point somewhat beyond the ront and rear-most portions of the footwear to be isolated from a floor surface. A
typical piece of footwear is shown at F in place on the cover sole. It is to be noted that the side margins 4 of the cover, when applied to footwear, are upwardly inclined, a.s later described, to cone any dirt or other debris or contaminant.

It is desirable from a practical standpoint to form sole 1 from material with a floor contacting surface comprised of loop pile at 5 of miniature loops of polymeric material such as polypropylene which loops are highly resistant to separation when tensioned.
'The sole has an upper surface or back 6 of a synthetic polymer which serves to carry the loop pile as the same is partially embedded in the back during manufacture.
The sole may be embodied in level loop pile carpeting having a depth of 3/16~'to 1/4'~
of an inch including back and the loop pile.
Forward or toe straps at 7 and 8 are integral with sole 1 for engagement with the footwear toe. The straps 7 and 8 preferably have reduced width inner segments at 7B and 8B to facilitate placement over the footwear toe. A frontal center strap at 9 with a fabric closure element 11 assists in elevating the forward end portion of the sole for retention of dirt or debris on the sole.
With attention now to the rearward straps at 14 and 15, which may be termed heel straps, are of greater length than toe straps 7 and 8 and wrap oppositely about the wearer's ankle prior to joining forward of the ankle in a snug manner. A hoop type closure element at 16 on one strap 14 or 15 engages the remaining heel strap at a segment thereon as the heel straps, like the forward or toe straps, provide a multitude of fabric loops therealong. Hook type closure element 16 and the loop pile on the cooperating strap segment provide cover attachment means. Forward attachment means are provided by hoop type closure element 10 on a forward or toe strap 7 or 8 and a cooperating strap segment of the remaining toe strap and specifically the loop pile located thereon.
During installation of the present cover on a work shoe, or other footwear, the marginal areas 4 along the opposite side of the sole will be displaced upwardly, as best shown in Figure 4, upon upward positioning the forward straps and rearward straps about the piece of footwear.
For economy of manufacture or other reasons the front and rear straps ?-8 and 15 are preferably formed from the same material as the sole. The straps may be formed separately if so desired and applied to the sole during assembly of the cover as by stitching, bonding, stapling, etc., per Fig 7.
An included angle, 60 degrees or so between each forward strap and the centerline lengthwise of sole 1 provides snug, desired transverse placement of same across the footwear toe.
Installation of the cover on a piece of footwear entails placement of the footwear with the shoe vamp located intermediate the innermost ends toe straps 7 and 8.
Rear or heel straps 14~15 are applied with the first applied strap passing rearwardly of the footwear so as to lie across the wearer's ankle (or boot upper) whereupon the remaining rear strap is wound oppositely about the ankle (or boot) to locate the attachment element I6 for pressed engagement with the loop pile on the first positioned rear strap. The front and rear straps so positioned contribute to the side margins 4 of the sole being drawn upwardly.

The front and rear straps so positioned contribute to the side margins 4 of the sole being drawn upwardly.
The loop pile of the sole cover is formed from polymeric material with the back joining the loops preferably of like material. The combination of such loop pile and backing is found in carpeting wherein polymers such as polypropylene, polyethylene, olefin, nylon and polyester may be utilized and bonded to the baking. The back upper surface is substantially continuous and lends itself to ease of cleaning and debris removal.
Suitable material may have an overall depth or thickness of approximately one-quarter of an inch but could be varied to best suit an intended use. Strap width, at the juncture with the sole, is flaired to contribute to elevation to the sole margins. Several covers may be stored on a wall mounted rack 20 per Figure 6 having a strip of loop pile 21 to receive a cover mounted element.
Hook and loop type closure elements are sole under the registered trademark VELCRO and are available with an adhesive permitting installation on the back or smooth side of selected straps. The closure elements may also be stapled to the straps selected.
While I have shown but a few embodiments of the invention, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the invention may be embodied still otherwise without departing from the spirit and scope of the claimed invention.
