Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Apr. 13, TQM.
Application filed November 11, 1913. Serial No. 800,298.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that ll, EPHRAIM DRENSH- ram, of the borough of Brooklyn, county of Kings, city and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Arch-Supporters, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to that class of arch supporters made principally of metal which are designed to fit each individual foot.
The object of this invention is to provide an arch supporter which can easily be made to fit the foot of the wearer and which is laterally adjustable.
A further object is the provision of an arch supporter whose supporting parts can readily be pressed from sheet metal and which with slight alterations can be adjusted to the individual foot.
ll attain these objects by the construction shown in the accompanying drawings, in which,
Figure 1 is a plan view of one form of my invention and Fig. 2 is a vertical section of the same on the line A-A of Fig. 1.
My improved arch supporter is divided longitudinally into two or more supporting parts as 1 and 2, (Fig. 1) which are made preferably of metal and which may be finished off by leather or other suitable covering if desired in a manner well known to the art and which forms no part of my invention. Said supporting parts are each shaped to fit and support a certain part of the entire supported portion of the foot and i are fastened together by any suitable fastening means such as rivets, or are adjustably fastened together by the nuts 11 on screws 10. The adjustability of my supporter to various sizes laterally is obtained y'means of slots as 9 in either of the supporting parts in this case supporting part 2, or in both parts, in which the fastening means as screws 10 and nuts 11 slide. Another way of obtaining the lateral adjustment is by overlapping the supporting parts as l and 2, Fig. 1, the required amount and then riveting said parts together.
By making the supporter of several parts A longitudinally, said parts as 1 and 2 may be readily fashioned in a suitablev press and then made to fit the individual foot accurately and exactly by slight alterations if needed. I
For additional strength at the place where it is most needed, reinforcing strips may be used, said strips running the entire length of the supporter or only part of the length as desired. When no reinforcing strips are used, the bottom of the supporter 1s primarily dependent for its rigidity on the overlapping of members 1 and 2.. It is obvious that more'than'one thickness of relnforcing material may be used or a series of narrow strips may be substituted for the long strip shown without departing from the spirit of my invention. The longitudinal members 1 and 2, may be adjusted to the required width and then riveted or otherwise fastened to the reinforcing strip or strips.
I do not limit myself to the specific construction shown as it is obvious that certaln changes can be made without departing from the scope of-my invention, such as the use of fastening means other than rivets or the screws and nuts shown.
What ll claim is:
1. An arch supporter comprising solid permanently formed overlapping metallic members substantially ofthe same length along their overlapping edges, each of said members being shaped to fit and support one side and part of the bottom of the individual foot to be supported, said members being arranged for lateral adjustment, and means for longitudinally securing said members in their adjusted position, the bottom of said supporter being primarily dependent for its rigidity on the overlapping of said members.
2. An arch supporter comprising solid permanently formed uniformly overlapping metallic members substantially of the same length along their overlapping edges, each of said members being shaped to fit and support one side and part of the bottom of the individual foot to be supported, said members being arranged for lateral adjustment, the overlapping edges of saidmembers remaining substantially parallel during and after adjustment, and means for longitudinally securing said members in their adjusted position.
