Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Mar. 24, 1914.
Application filed June 24, 1912. Serial No. 705,410.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, GEORGE H. RICKE, a citizen of the United States, residing at the city of Cincinnati, in the county of Hamilton and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Shoes, of which the following is a specification.
My invention belongs to that class of shoes lwhich are provided with 'wooden soles. I make the wooden sole of two or more pieces and connect them' together so as to forni a movable or flexible joint, so t-hat when the wearer walks or stoops, they will yield to the form assumed by the foot, the' same las the ordinary shoe. I make this joint watertight by a unique and durable construction of the parts which form the joint. Its advantages and features willreadily become apparent from the following specification and claim.
In `the accompanying drawing forming part of this specification: Figure 1 is an isometric view illustrating my new shoe. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section taken through the joint, parts of the sole heilig broken away. Fig. 3 is a section through part of o-ne side of the shoe at thejoint, showing-how the ,shoe upper and auxiliary parts used by me to make a t-ight joint at the sole edge of the shoe are relatively placed before finishing, and Fig. 4 is a similar view to that sho-wn in Fig. 3, except `that it is shown finished and connected to the sole of the shoe.
three sections or parts 1, 2 and 3, connected together and to the upper 4 as hereinafter described. The upper`4 is connected to the parts 1, 2 and 3 by being suitably fastened in a groove or rabbet 5 along the sole edge. In the parts 1 and 2 are formed grooves 6 and 7the convex partj 8 of part 2 fitting in the' groove 6 and the convex part 9 of part 3 fittingA into groove 7. These grooves and convex parts are semi-circular in outline, so that they'will coact to form a tight movable joint where they come together. In order to properly connect these parts 1, 2 and 3 together I provide a Shank or tongue 10 which passes entirely through the part 2 and extends into parts 1 and 3 part Way only. At theforward end of part 2 where the shank 10 passes through said part, the slot 'or slit through which it passes is made wide or wedge shaped as shown zit-12, a
similar formation being present at 13 in the forward end of part 3,-this formation allows the parts 1, 2 and 3 to play as the wearer" walks, the shank 10 only slightly yielding, and in thismanner the shank 10 is preserved and the parts are more readily forced to assume the position required of them when the wearer is walking o1' stooping, (the wedge shaped slits 12 and 13 allowing for the play) see particularly Fig. 2.
In order to hold the parts properly together, I provide bolts or nails 14 in each of the parts l, 2 and 3 which pass through the shank 10 to hold it in position. These bolts or nails 14 may be of any form and put in place in any desired manner, one form being shown in Fig. 2.
To make the joint water proof, I provide the following construction. Over the parts forming the joint I place in the recess 15, (formed at the said joint) a piece of leather 16, allowing it to extend beyond the edge of the sole at each side, over this I place a metal insole or stifener 17, which snugly lits into said recess 15, but does not extend out ofit, and over this metal insole I place a rubber piece 18 which also extends over the sole edge, as does the leather piece 16. These leather and rubber parts which extend over the solo edge are then connected together at their edges and they maybe stitched together or otherwise connected.
Then with the upper 4 they are tacked or,
otherwise rmly connected to the sole parts, in the rabbet 5 as shown in Fig. 4. The leather piece 16 andrubber piece 18 may extend entirely across the recess 15 or only lie along its edge on each side if so desired, and parts 16, 17 and 18 may all be cemented together if desired. The regular insole usually used is marked 19 and may be of any material.
It will readily be apparent that I form a water tight flexible joint in a Wooden soled shoe.
Any other form of construction may be used to connect the sole and shoe upper than one herein set forth, the main featurebethe ing the formation of the-sole, which is. also capable of modification and such modification will fall within the scope of my invention, as I do not wish to limit myself to the specific construction herein 'set forth.
What I claim as new and my invention and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
In a shoe of the class described, a. sole mede up of sections, said sections having concave and convex interlocking ends, and
having a slot therein adapted to receive a shank, a shank located in said slot, said slot being gradually flared 01- Widened from a point in rem" of an interlocking end of each 0f certain of said sections to said end,
whereby bending of the sole is facilitated, and means for securing said shank to said 10 sections.
