SHOE-LACING DEVICE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed. May 10, 1912.
Patented Mar. 17, 1! 9141-.
Serial No. 698,399.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, Josnrn; Omisnun NA- DEAU, a subject of the King of Great. Britain, residing at Cochrane, Ontario, Canada, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Sln'ie-Lacing Devices; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
The invention to be hereinafter described relates to a boot or shoe lacing device.
In order to more clearly disclose the construction, operation, and use of the invention, reference should be had to the accompanying drawings forming part of the present application.
In the drawings:F1igure 1 is a perspective View of a shoe with the device applied; Fig. 2 is an enlarged plan view of the de vice, applied; Fig. is a cross section on line 3-3 of Fig. 2; Fig. 4; is a cross section on line l lof Fig. 2; Fig. 5 is a side elevation of the device, detached; and Figs. 6, 7 and 8 are plan views of the device showing several different applications.
Referring to the drawings in detail, 1 indicates one edge of the shoe or boot upper. Between the lining of the outer face is placed a U shaped spacing block 2 forming a small pocket. In this pocket is revolubly mounted a small red or pin 3. The inner end of this rod is provided with a flange 4t which is seated between the inner face of the shoe lin ing and a holding strip which is secured to the lining. The outer end projects through the shoe edge and is overturned in the form of a button. To this outer end is secured an operating lover or handle 5 provided with a snap socket 6 adapted to cooperate with a spring stud or button 7 secured to the opposite edge of the shoe. To the rod 3, a short distance from the flange 4., is rigidly secured a small spool 8 of slightly greater diameter than the rod 3. In order to prevent the leather from sliding inwardly along the rod 8 and toward the flange of the spool 8, a spacing flange has been provided on the rod close to the handle In using the device, the shoe lace will be threaded back and forth through the numerous eyelets and its opposite ends will be connected, one to a hook 10 on the large diameter spool, and the other to a similar hook on the rod 3 or on the spacing flange. The
upper part of the shoe will, of course, require to be left considerably looser than the lower part, in order that the "foot may be inserted without removing the lace. Consequently, more lace will be drawn in from this top section than from the bottom section, while tightening. Therefore, the end of that lace section controlling the upper part of the shoe, is secured to the spool so that that section will be drawn in at a greater rate than the lower section. \Vhen the two lace ends have been duly secured to their respective hooks, the lever handle 5 is rotated to wind up the lace ends 01' the spool and rod. This action takes up all looseness and closes the shoe tightly about the foot. Then the lacing has been drawn tight enough, the socket 6 is pressed over its button 7 and the lace will be hold tight.
It is thought that the operation and use of the invention will be clear from the preceding detailed description.
Changes may be made in the construction. arrangement, and disposition of the several parts of the invention without; in any way departing from the field and scope of the same and it is meant to include all such within this application wherein only a preferred form has been disclosed.
Ilavingthus fully described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. In combination, a shoe upper, a rod revolubly mounted in one edge of said upper about midway between the top and bottom thereof, a spool of greater diameter than said rod and fixed thereto, a lacing threaded through eyelets of said uppe above and bclow said rod, connections between the end of the upper lace section and said spool, and connections between the end of the lower lace section and said rod, and means for rotating said rod to tighten both lace sections simultmicously and at. different rates.
2. In combination, a shoe upper, a rod rcvolubly mounted in one edge of said upper about midway between the top and bot-- tom thereof, a lever handle secured to said rod and provided with a snap socket, a snap button carried by said shoe upper and cooperating with said socket, a spool of greater diameter than said rod and fixed thereto, a lacing threaded through eyelets of said upper above and below said rod, connections between the end of the upper lace section and said spool, connections between the end of the lower lace section and said rod, and means for rotating said rod to tighten both lace sections simultaneously at difierent rates.
3. In combination, a shoe upper, a rod revolubly mounted between the layers of one edge of said upper about midway between the top and bottom thereof, a spool of greater diameter than said rod and fixed thereto, a U shaped spacing block seated in said upper and inclosing said rod and spool in a pocket formed thereby, a lacing threaded through eyelets of said upper above and below said rod, connections between the end of the upper lace section and said spool, con- 15 nections between the end of the lower lace section and said rod, and means for rotating said rod.
In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand in the presence of two witnesses.
