Application filed March 9,,1'911. Serial No. 613,463.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Feb. 13, 1912.
To all whom it may concern: Be it known that 1, Aims G. F1Tz, a citi zen of the United fitates, residing at Auburn,
in the county of Androscogg'in and State of 5 Mame, have invented certain new and use ful Improvements in Last-s, of which the following'is a specification.
One of the'modern requirements 1n the art of shoe making is that the lasts above.
facturing shoes and in the wear and tear of factory use the to of the fore part is I "liable to be broken 0 In my said patent,
I provided for the necessary upward and forward movement of the heel part relative to the fore part by removing a portion of the sides of the top of the fore part and forming a recess in the heel part to give entrance thereto. A considerable amount of upward and forward movement of the heel part relative to the fore part is absolutely necessary in lasts which are connected hy links as distinguished from lasts which are bonded by the ordinary hinge.
My present invention is designed to provide a last which shall permit the requisite amount of upward and forward movement without removing any portion of the top at the sides of the fore part, except so much as is necessary to satisfy the requirement before referred to. e
In the drawings I have-illustrated my improvement and in said drawings Figure 1 is a side elevation of the last embodying my improvement; Fig. 2 is a side elevation partly in section showing the bonding link and resistance spring; and Fig. 3 is a rear end view of the fore part of the last.
Same reference characters indicate like 5 parts in the several figures.
In said drawing A is the heel part and B the fore partof a last, said; parts being adapted to be bonded together byone or more links C pivotally mounted in the heel part and fore pa'rt respectively and spanning the line of division between the two parts of the last. D is a coil spring set in Awardly into it from the top, where fiche heel of the last is moved upwardly and Eforwardly the salient angle at the top of the heel part moves forwardly into the reenthe fore part of the last in the path of .prong E on the end of one of the bonding links. The last throughout the fore and heel part at a point spaced apart from the de bottom part is contracted, as seen at F,""-Fig. l and 3. I claim no inventioii. in thus reducing the top of the last, it being merely demanded by a change in the custom of manufacturing shoes. To permit the heel part to move upwardly and forwardly suiliclent to permit easy insertion and removal \of the .last from the shoe, I divide the lastion lines of out which farm on the 5 rear endkof the fore part a. reengrant angle Gr at the top and two salient angles H and I below and on the heellpart a salient angle J at the top and a reentrant angle K below and a gap L extending downwardly into the last from the top. It will be noted that when the last is thus divided and the parts placed end to end the lower salient angle on the end of the fore part fits into the reentrant angle K in the end of the heel part, thus affording a firm. support for the parts of the last when in extended position.
WVhen nolv' the heel part ismoved upwardly and forwardly it assumes relative to,the"fore part the position shown in dotted lines in Fig. 1, wherein the salient angle in the heel part fits into reentrant angle in the fore part, thus affording a very much greater forward movement of the heel part than would otherwise be attainable.
Having thus described my invention" and its use, I claim-:-
A last divided by lines of out whiclrform on the rear end of the fore part a rentrant angle at the top and two salient angles below and on the front end of the heel part a salient angle at the top and a rentrant angle below, and, when the last is in extended position, a gap. extendin downdey when trant angle in the fore part and into locking engagement with the fore part;
