Specification of Letters 4Patent Application led April 18, 1912,. Serial No. 691,579.
in shoe protectors and is more especially designed to protect wooden soled shoes which in use `are subjected to rough wear.
An object of the invention is to provide a simply constructed and eiicient attachment which will protect the sole, heel, and shank of the shoe, as well as a portion of the upper thereof.
Another Objectis to provide a metal protecting rim. for inclosingthe fastening elements which secure the upper t0 the sole and prevent them from wearing or' becoming loosened, and also to render theminvisible.
Another object is to provide a metal protecting rim held removably in position by removable sole and heel plates detachably engaged with the stationary sole and heel of the shoe. v
With this and other objects in view the invention consists of certain novel features of construction, combination, and arrangement of parts a's'jfiwill be hereinafter more fully described andelaimed. y
ln the accompanying drawings: Figure 1 represents a perspective view of a shoe equipped with this improvement; Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section thereof; Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the protector detached; Fig. 4: is a perspective view of the removable sole; Fig. 5 is a similar view of the removable heel lift; Fig. 6 is aa transverse vertical section through the froiit' portion of the shoe with parts broken out.
In the embodiment illustrated a heavy shoe such as is used by miners is shown provided with a stationary sole 1, preferably constructed of wood and shaped to form the forward portion or half sole 2, arch or shank portion 3, and a heel portion 4. The heel portion 4 has ,formed on its under side adepcnding stationary heel member 5; The sole Patented Jan. 28, 1913.
may be of any ldesired shape and it has con- Y necte'd thereto by any suitable means an upper 6.
Secured to the forward portion 2 of the sole l is a metal half sole 7 which is of the same size and conforms to the shape of the forward portion 2 of the sole and'the edge thereof is offset from the stationary sole to provide a peripheral' lip 8 for detachable engagement with a `removable outer sole 9,1"
preferably composed of heavyv leather and 4 engaged with said metal half sole 7 by means to be described.
The leather half sole 9 is provided on its,"
inner face .around the edge thereof with a metal strip l() secured at its outer edgeto 'I said sole 9 by rivets or other suitable fasten'- ing elements and having its inner edge olf4 j set from the sole 9 to form a connecting lip.
or flange 11 for slidable engagement with the lip 8 on the metal half sole 7. It is obvious from the drawings that this outer" leather half sole 9 may be readily slid into* engagement with the metal half sole 7 by en'- gaging the coperating lips of the soles vand sliding said outer sole longitudinally toward the rear or heel of the shoe. It will thus be observed that the outer leather sole may be quickly insert-ed and removed when desired, which is especially desirable in case a new outer sole should be required and also to permit the removal of the protecting rim hereinafter described.
A metal heel plate 12 is secured to the lower face of the stationary Wooden heel member 5 by any suitable means and has its peripheral edge offset fromsaid heel in a manner similar to the metal half sole 7 to provide an attaching lip 13 for engagement with the cooperating member which will now be described. is detachably connected with the metal heel plate 12 by means of a metal strip 15 secured to the inner face of the lift lll near its edge, said strip having its inner edge offset from said lift 14 to form a connecting lip or flange 16 for slidable engagement with the lip .13 and the metal heel plate 12,
A removableheellift 14:
'' sition to permit the sliding engagement with the metal heel plate in' a manner similiarl to the half sole above described. Y. y
connection with a vs'lhovel'or s ade.
As shown this 'prtector 17 1s composed of fao -a single piece of metal but it will be obvious that it may bemade of connected parts if desired, the lintegral form, however, being preferable.
- 'Ihe openings 22 and 23 at the bottom of this frame or protector 17 conform exactly lin sizeand shape to the metal half sole 7V and heel plate 12 to provide for a ready insertion and removal of this protector. When in operative position the offset lips of these platesv7 and l2 project slightly be-A low the lower edge of the protector into potherewith of the leather half sole 9 and heel lift 14 by means of Awhich theprotector 17 is held reliably in position on the shoewith`vv out any other fastening means being necessary and when the outer sole and heel plates become worn they may be quickly removedl .and new ones substituted.
As shown the puter leather half sole 9 is provided with removable wear plates 24 each of which is provided with a plurality of perforations or rivet holes 25 for the passage of the fastening screws or rivets. On the lower or outer face of these plates around the screw holes therein are formed depending annular anti-skidding elements 26 whichlwil'll revent the shoe from sliping when useffon ice or in muddy places.
he free edges of `these members 26 may be sharpened to any desired extent, the sharper they are the more effective. These wear plates 24 may be of any suitable size or sha. three being here shown applied to the halsole 9, two elongated plates being sener as is described form if desired. Depending anti-skidding elements 28 are formed around the screw openings in said heel plate in the same inanabove in relation to the sole member. y
The protector 17 is especially desirable as it does not require any means for securing it to the upper of the shoe whereby the life Aof the upper is prolonged.
One protector may be used in connection with many shoes, provided, of course, that the shape and size ofthe shoes be the same.
To disassemble the parts it is necessary only to slide the heel lift 14 rearwardly and the leather half sole 9 forwardly thereby disengaging them from the metal heel and sole plates whereupon the aluminum protector 17 may be readily slipped ofi" the bottom of the shoe.
I claim as my invention: v
-1. In a shoe, a stationary sole and heel, a metal half sole secured to said stationary sole, a protecting metal rim encircling said shoe, means for-detachably connecting the heel of said metal'rim with the stationary heel of the shoe, a detachable half sole, and coperating meanson said metal half sole and said detachable half sole for removably securing said .soles together and the protective rim in operative position.
