Of course in size and in contour the pad may be varied so that more than one metatarsal bone may be supported, if desired, and so that pressure may be spread or localized as the needs of the individual case may require. Y
It will be apparent that in assembling the structure the arm 16 is applied to the plate by turning it at right angles to its intended position so that the parallel sided head 20 may slip through the slot 25, and then the plate is pivotally turned to working position and its pin 21 is fitted in any one of the openings 2G in the plate, the slotting of the plate for reception of the pivot post 19 enabling the arm to be adjusted forward and backward to register with either of the lines 0f openings, and its pivotal movement with respect to the plate slots enabling its pin 21 to be brought into engagement with any desired one of the holes. The pad 17 in turn may be rotarily adjusted to any desired position so as to bring its highest convexity into just the position to give the greatest ease to the wearer and as the pad becomes unduly compacted, or change in the condition of the foot of the wearer necessitates different pads, the substitution of new pads may be made.
lt will be apparent to those skilled in the art that many changes in details of construction might be made in the embodiment of my invention without departure from the spirit of the invention and within the scope of the appended claims.
Having described my invention what I claim is:
,1. In an arch support the combination of a metallic arch supporting plate, an arm carried by and adjustable to diiferent posr tions with respect to said plate and having an end protruding beyond the plate, and a pad structure carried by the extremity of said arm.
2. In a device of the character described the combination of an arch plate, an adj nstable arm, and a pad. said pad carried oy 'the extremity of said arm beyond the plate7 and said arm and plate having cooperating means for longitudinal and pivotal adjustment of the arm upon the plate and coperating means for fastening the arm in selected position of longitudinal and pivotal adjustment.
3. In a device of the character described the combination of a metallic arch plate, a flat arm therebelow protruding beyond the arch plate end and adjustable with respect to the arch plate, and a pad, carried by the protruding end of the arm, overlapping the eplge of the arch plate.
il. In a device of the character described, the combination of a. metallic arch plate, a Hat arm carried by the arch plate and adjustable relative thereto, and a detachable pad carried by the arm.
In testimonv whereof I hereunto set my hand in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
