HENRY DE 13R-Y,
@mit @Fmi OF OGDEN, UTAH.
SHOESTRNG-FASTENER.
To allie/0217, it mf/y/ concern f' Be 1t known that l, HENRY Dn Brr, a citizen of the United States, residing at Ogden,
. inthe county of veber and State of Utah,
have invented, certain new and useful linprovements in Shoestring Fasteners, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawings. y
This invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in shoe string fasteners, the object of the invention being to provide a device of this character wherebythe ends of the shoe string may be quickly and.
securely fastened lafter the shoe has been laced.
Another object of the invention is to provide 'a device of this character which will possess advantages in points'of elicieney and durability, is inexpensive to manufacture and at the same time is simple in construction and operation.
With the above and other objects in view, the invention consists in the novel features of construction and the combination and arrangement of parts hereinafter more fully described, pointed out in the claim and shown in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is an elevation of a portion of a shoe upper illustrating the application of my invention. Fig. 2 is a side elevation of one of the fastening members. Fig. 3 is a longitudinal sectional'view of the same. Fig. 4, is a detail perspective view illustrating the manner of securing a shoe string.4
Referring more particularly to the drawings, l indicates the elongated body portion of the fastener, one end of which is provided with an opening 2 whereby the same may be readily secured to the shoe by means of the eyelet 3. The other end of the body is curved upwardly and then downwardlv as shown at ft and the extreme end of the body isprovided with a hook member 5 adapted to engage within the leather of the shoe to securely fasten this end of the body.
Upwardly projecting ears 6 are formed upon the longitudinal edges of the bo'dy and are adapted:v to Vbe disposed between the spaced. ears 7 formed upon the intermediate portion of the lever 8. The ears G and 7 arc provided with a, transverse opening 9 in which is arranged a suitable pivot pin ll() whereby the lever is pivotally mounted upon the body l. One end of the lever S is provided Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed December 14, 1912.
l:.1tcutedlan. 2 E, H214. serial No. 736,872.
l with an enlarged portion 1l whereby pressure thereon. will manipulate the lever, and the other end of the lever is curved downuardly and then outwardly cti-incident with l the curvature of the end of the body l.
It will be apparent that the curved and the front end of the body l forms a suitable seat as shown at l2 in which the curved (ind of the lever 8 is adapted to fit, the lower face of the curved end of the lever andthe seat l2 are provided with serrations 13 so that when the shoe strings are clamped between the is lrst released. Mounted upon the pivot pin l0 and arranged between the ears is a coil spring 14, one end of which bears against the outer end of the lever 8, while the other end of the spring bears against the body portion l so as to normally retain the curved outer end of the body.
In securing my improved fastener to the shoe, they are adapted to 'be arranged upon the opposed edges of the upper of the shoe and it will also be understood that while there is a fastener arranged upon each side of the opening in the upper, only one need be used.
From the above description taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, it will be readily apparent that l have provided a simple and durable shoe string fastener whereby the loose ends of the shoe string, after the shoe has been laced up, may be securely fastened and held in a secure lated to release the shoe string. It will also be understood that the device is extremely simple in, its construction and can be manufactured at a comparatively low cost.
While I have shown and described the preferred form of my invention, it will be obvious that various changes in tihe details of construction and in the proportions may be resorted to for successfully carrying my invention into practice without sacrificing any of the novel features or departing from the scope of the appended claim.
lVhat l'claim is A'device of the. character described comprisingthe combination with an elongated body portion having an eyelet for engageportion in, position against said material, a curved hook member projecting from one end of the elongated body portion and adautposition until the lever 8 has been manipuv same they will not pull out unless the lever 8 end of thelever in engagement with the loc ment through material to secure the body A ed for engagement through the material to prevent turning of the body portion, said curved hook having a raised portion with a concaved seat formed therein above the plane of the body portion, said eoncaved seat having a plurality ofserrations formed therein, and parallel upstandin brackets formed at opposite sides of the boyportion; of a lever l pivotally mounted upon said brackets and having one end depressed to form a bowlshaped member provided with serrations upon the convex face thereof, and adapted to normally co-aet with the Serrat-ions inthe oncaved seat of the hook to securely hold an object placed therein, and means to retain 15 the lever in its normal position with the bowl-shaped member formed therein engaged in the eoneaved seat of the curved hook.
In testimony whereof I hereunto aix my 20 signature in the presence of two Witnesses.
HENRY DE BRY.
