Description

aient @Wire CHARLES T. DAY, OF NEWARI{,'NEW JERSEY.
Letters Patent N 101,108, dated March 22, 1870.
IMPROVEMENT IN SKATES.
The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same Figure 1, ofthe drawings, is a representation of my invention, as applied tothe shoe.
Figure 2 is a bottom view of the skate.
Figures 3 and 4 are details.
My invention relates to skates, and consists mainly in the construction and novel arrangement of the clamping device, whereby the foot-plate is attached .to the sole of the shoe, in skates of the style known asthe New York club skate. l
lhe letter A, of the drawings, designates the runner of such a skate.
B, the metal foot-plate.
K, D, the heel-stud, adapted to secure the skate, by its insertion into a suitable socket, in a plate secured to the heel of the boot.
E E represent my foot-clamps, corrugated or toothed at c, and provided with the slots a a, whereby they are secured to the studs II I-I of the foot-plate.
Flanehes fmv m. are formed on the inner ends of the clamps E E, and extend somewhat to one side, in such a manner that the screw F, whereby they are connected, may be placed as closely as possible to the foot-plate.
rlhe operating-screw F is provided with double threads, c c, diverging from each other, and thus dispensing with a collar. Sometimes a single-thread screw and collar may be employed.
lhe slots a, a are parallel to each other and to the lscrew 11", which is arranged obliquely to the skaterunner, as shown.
`The advantages of my oblique clamps are many and practical. rlhe screw heilig placed to one side et' the stud H, the slot may be made long, thereby allowing the clamps to be spread wide apart.
The screw F not heilig over the studs can be placed close to the foot-plate, and will thcre`ore not 'be liable to catch in the ,ice when the skate is inclined. rlhe screw is also thrown around in a position more convenient for using the key.-
Lateral motion of the foot upon the foot-plate is prevented by the firm bearing of the oblique slots against the studs, thereby keeping the clamps from sliding from side to side under the foot-plate.
That I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
'Ihe skate-clamps E E, provided with the eccentrical nuts on m, and arranged to move to and from each other, in parallel directions, oblique to the runner of the skate, and operated by the oblique screw F, in the manner and for the purposes herein shown and described.
In testimony that I claim the above, I have hereunto subscribed my name in the presence of two witnesses.
