To all whom it may concern:
Be it knownthat I, WILLIAM B. ARNOLD, a citizeny off theviUn'ited States, residing in North Abington, in the county of Plymouth and Commonwealth of' Massachusetts," have invented certainl new and useful Improvements in- Processes- Vof' Making Boots and Shoes, of which the following is a specificatien.
My invention relates to a new and im* proved process for making boots and' shoes. In the drawings Where the same characters: are used' to indicate the same parts Wherever they occur, Figure l in top plan View shows what I term a middle sole ern ployed in my process; Fig. 2 in top pla'n view shows a pieceY of welt. Fig. 3 in top plimvievv shows the middle sole with a welt temporarily secured in position thereonf by cement or otherwise and extending avound the edge of the middle sole from the heel 015 the inside to the heel of the outside. Fig. 4 is` a View similar to Fig. 3- showing the Wel-t extending all the Way around the edge of the middle sole. Fig. 5- is a cross sectienal view, showing. the needle in the position occupied in sewing the Welt to the in sole and further showing the use of the edge of the middle soleA asa guide for the needle and a positioner of the seam made bythe Aneedle in the Weltand. insole, the needle and thread appearing at the right the thread of the seam or other fastening means appearing at the left. Fig. 6 is aI cross sec 85 tional View, a filler appearing betvveetiie middle sole and insole. Fig. 7 is a view showing the outsole applied and the needle in position to stitch the outsole to the Welt. Fig. 8 isa view showing the outsole applied to '40 the `middle sole and the needle in position to stitch the outsole to the Welt.
While I have shown a shoe in illustrating my invention, I Wish it to be understood as not limitating myself to a shoe, since my ii..
vention embraces boots, shoes, and all footwear wherein a Welt, so called, is employed in itS manufacture. I therefore desire to be understood as embracing footwear generally wherever the Word shoe is employe I have not illustrated the forming Aor shaping of the upper or the insole or the shaping and `attaching of the upper to the insole, since these steps constitute no part of my invention, and may be carried out by any Well-known or preferred process. My improved process, or the Arnold process,
position to the. bottom of the shoe, the edge so-cal1ed, is principally concerned' with theA stepsrfollowmg the securing of the upper to' the insole.
lA rtl-presents what I term a middle sole, which; maybe made of leather or any other suitable material. This middle sole While it' corremonds to the general lines of the insole, is.I made sufiiciently smaller'- than the insole te permit the passage of a needle by the edge of the middle soie and through the insole for the proper location of the seam in the upper andv the insole. This difference in the sizev of the middle sole shouid' exist for so much of the edge of the' middle sole as' is to be used for a guide for' the sewing needle'.
2 represents a welt. This may be of any srsy wellllmown or desired construction. The
form' of the" Weltist'liat= illustrated in United states- Pant No. (S7/e831 granted 1:0 me 0n the 21st' day of May 1901.
In practising my pro'cess'thewelt is placed Y by handl ormachine upon the middle sole and tenrponirlyl secured by cement' or other;A Wise to the middle sole' as shown in Figs. 3 and 4, the welt projecting beyond the middile sole the distance" iti is desired to have' the outsole project beyoiidfthe seam joi'fling the Welt to the insole. The middle sole and; its' attached' weit is` their' cemented or otherwise temporarily' secured in proper off the middle sole' being placed on the bote tom of the shoe Where 1t is desired to have the inseam-made.. The welt isgthen stitchedeeo or otherwise secured by any desired means tothe insole. v
Vhile I have employed the Word seam and needlf I have employed these terms for the purpose of illustration. My invention embraces and I Wish it to be understood as asserting that it embraces the described steps, irrespective of the fol-In of bonding Y means employed to hold the Welt to the invsile and irrespective of the instrument'ali ties for placing said bonding means in the shoe. A
In securing the welt to the insolefihe needle 3 or other bond placing instrument is guided by the edge of the middle sole, thus locating the seam or other bonding means at a definite and predetermined distance from the outer edge of the Welt, and the outer edge of the insole by the act of and at the time of placing the bonding means. If the usual means are :rnployed for securing the insole to the welt :ne middle sole serves as a positive and safe guide for the needle or other bonding tool.
Under my process, after the Welt is secured to the insole, the middle sole may be removed, and a filler 4 applied in the usual Way as in Figs. 6 and 7, or a filler may be applied to the middle sole as in Fig. 8, in which case the middle sole need not be removed. Where it is desired to follow my process, and not remove the middle sole, the latter may be made of any desired material. Since my patented Welt is only as thick on the inside of the inseam as on t 1e outside of the inseam, only a little skiving of the edge of the middle sole would be necessary to make the top surface of the middle sole .flush with the top surface of the Welt when it is desired to use the middle sole as a permanent part of the shoe. The middle sole may serve as a welt holder and seam positioner or, as already stated, it may in addition be used as a permanent part of the shoe. The use andthe non use of a iiller is of course optional, as is the use of the middle sole as a permanent part of the shoe.
In Figs. 6 and 8 the middle sole 1 appears for clearness of illustration as it would appear if the middle sole were to be removed and not made a permanent part of the shoe. lVhen it is desired to retain the middle sole as a permanent part of the shoe, as in Figs. 6 and 8, the edge of theY middle sole should be pared or skived flush with the welt 2 or a marginal iiller employed on the welt so that the outsole will rest on the middle sole and welt or marginal filler on the Welt before stitching the outsole tothe Welt as the outsole rests on the iller and Welt in Fig. 7.
Vhile I have used the Word iiiiddle sole in referring to the part l, I do not wish to be understood as limiting my invention to a middle sole, since this part may be removed or may be used as a permanent part of the shoe as desired. Wherever I employ the Word middle sole I desire to be understood as embracing any sole-shaped device capable of holding a welt in position for attaching the welt to the insole and for guiding the needle or other bonding means and positioning the inseam.
I believe myself to be the first to use a sole-shape device as a welt holder and inseam positioner, whether said sole shaped device be removed after the welt is attached to the insole or be used as a permanent part ofthe shoe and. I desire to claim the same in the broadest possible legal manner.
I claim:
1. The process of making shoes which consists in applying a welt to a middle sole, applying said middle sole and its Welt to the bottom of a lasted or otherwise shaped upper and insole, securing the Welt to the insole by an instrumentality guided by the edge of the middle sole and completing the shoe in any desired Way. l
i2. The process of making shoes which consists in applying a Welt to a middle sole at the marginal portion thereof, applying said middle sole and its velt to the bottom of a lasted or otherwise shaped upper and.'
