PATENT GEEICE.
JOSEPH H. ALLEN, OF VVADSVORTH, NEVADA.
IMPROVEMENT IN WELT-TRIMMERS FOR BOOTS AND SHOES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 117,138, dated July 18, 1871.
To all whom t may concern:
Be it known that I, J osEPH H. ALLEN, of Wadsworth, county of Vashoe, State of Nevada, have invented an Improved Tool for Trimming the Welts of Sewed Boots and Shoes; and I do hereby declare the following' description and accompanying drawing are sufficient to enable any person skilled in the art or science to which it most nearly appertains to make and use my said invention or improvements without further invention or experiment.
My invention relates to a simple and convenient tool for trimming the welts of sewed boots and shoes; and it consists of an adjustable knife properlyT guarded to prevent cutting the upper.
In order to more fully illustrate and explain my invention7 reference is had to the accompanying drawing forming a part of this specication, in which- A represents a suitable handle for my trimming-tool, the rear end of which may be beveled off, as shown, so as to provide an angular edge for separating the projecting welt from the upper leather ofthe boot or shoe after the welt has been trimmed at any width they may require for stitching. Secured in the opposite end of this handle is a bar, b, which tapers iatwise to au edge at its point. The end Z of this bar is bent at right angles to the bar b and is provided with The bar b is also slotted at some point between the handle A and the bent enel d, through which slot the knife-holder f passes, and is held at the desired position by a set-screw, e, thus bringing` the bent end d and knife-holder j' parallel with each other. The knife g passes through a slot in the lower end of the knife-holder until its point enters the slot o in the bar d, where it is -held by a set-screw, z'. The knie-holderfcan be adjusted up or down, according to the width of welt it is desired to leave projecting around the boot or shoe, the point ot' the knife at all times moving in thc slot c, which prevents it from cuttingthe upper. rlhe point of the bent bar d is thinned and rounded oft' so as to move easily between the welt and upper, while the welt to be trimmed comes between this bar and the knife-holder.
By this means I provide a simple, cheap, and convenient tool for boot and shoe-makers7 use.
Having thus describedl my invention, what I JOSEPH H. ALLEY. ['L. s] Witnesses:
