UITE STATES A IEN'I FREDERICK J. SMITH, OF HAVERHILL, MASSACHUSETTS, ASSIGNOR TO ROSA A. SMITH,
OF HAVERHILL,
MASSACHUSETTS.
SHOE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented July 8, 1913.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, FREDERICK J. SMITH, a citizen of the United States, residing at Haverhill, in the county of Essex and State of Massachusetts, have invented an Improvement in Shoes, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to certain improvements in turned shoes and particularly in turned shoes which will have the appearance of a welted shoe, but which may be made after the manner of the turned process.
Prior to my invention shoes of this general character have been manufactured by sewing a welt to the inner surface of an outer sole and sewing the upper to the outer side of the inner edge portion of the welt. So far as I am aware, these shoes have not been made to more than a very limited extent, particularly when machine sewed, for the reason that the welt is employed to act as a channel for the channel-guide of the sewing machine, with the result that the guide and the needle are likely to catch in the stitches which attach the welt to the sole and cause serious difficulty.
The object of my invention is to provide a shoe of the above described character which will not only have the appearance of a welted shoe, but will enable, as a practical matter, the manufacture of turned shoes without cutting the deep channel which is usually cut in the sole, so that the extent which the sole may be worn without wearing through the channel may be increased, and the benefitof the full thickness of the sole may be secured. I accomplish this object by the means shown in the accompanying drawing, in which,
Figure 1 is a central longitudinal section of the fore-part of a shoe made according to my invention. Fig. 2 is a plan view of the outer sole as prepared for the application of the welt. Fig. 3 is a detail sectional view of the edge portion thereof. Fig. 4 is a similar view showing the sole prepared for lasting. Fig. 5 is a similar view showing the parts attached in the position before turning.
In carrying out the process of manufacturewhich I employ, I provide an outer solo a and turn back a lip a from the edge thereof, in an ordinary sole-channeling machine, by a horizontal knife, which simply cuts a slit in from the edge, so that the lip may be turned back, as indicated in Fig. 3. This lip may be very light, and is so when a very thin sole is employed. A welt Z) is then secured to the surface a which is exposed by turning back the lip a, by a series of stitches 0, which extend through the solo in the usual manner of connecting a welt to an outer solo in a weltcd shoe, the edge of the welt being held flush with the edge of the sole.
The inner edge portion of the welt Z) is laid onto the inner surface of the lip on, so that their edges are approximately even. The upper is then lasted onto the upper surface of the welt, as in an ordinary turned shoe, and the upper, welt and lip are connected by a series of stitches e, in the ordinary manner of sewing a turned shoe, as indicated in Fig. 5. The shoe is then turned in the ordinary manner, and an inner sole f may be thereafter inserted. lVith this arrangement the wearing substance of the sole is practi :ally left intact, the removal of the edge portion which constitutes the lip, reducing the solo in thickness only slightly and at a point which will not affect the wearing qualities of the solo.
The groove which is formed by turning back the lip provides a smoother channel for the channel-guideof the sewing machine.
By this method the cost of manufacture over that of an ordinary turned shoe is but slightly increased. while the shoe as durable as an ordinary turned shoe having a considerably thicker sole.
I claim A turned shoe comprising a sole having a lip turned back from the edge thereof over the inner surface of the sole and forming a channel between said surface and the lip, a welt strip disposed on the opposite side of the lip from said channel and on the portion of the surface of the sole from which the lip was turned, and having the upper lying against the opposite side of the welt from the lip and two series of name to this specification, in the presence of stitches, one extending through the upper, two subscribing Witnesses.
welt and base portion of the lip to said channel and the other extending through the FREDERICK V welt and sole adjacent the edges thereof, Witnesses:
substantially as described. H. B. DAVIS,
In testimony whereof I havesigned my L. H. HARRIMAN.
