1 '0 all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, HENRY F. GEioER, a citizen of the United States,; residing at Cleveland, in the county of Cuyahoga and State of Ohio, have invented a new Heel and Instep Support.
My invention relates to a device for reducing the shock to the body when walking and at the same time support the instep.
I attain these objects by the device illustrated in the accompanying drawing, in which:
Figure I is a longitudinal vertical section of the shoe constructed in accordance with the invention. Fig. II is the bottom view of Fig. III is a view of a section taken on the line 3-3 of Fig. II.
Similar numbers refer to similar parts throughout the several views.
3 designates the cleats which hold the spring in place shown in Fig. II.
4, 5, (J, are the coils of the spring lying one within the other. Under the pressure of the body the coils come down on the inner heel of the shoe. I
7 is the portion of the plate which is concaved to fit the heel.
8 is the portion of the plate rising gradually and also concaved to fit the foot.
9 is the instep curve which is arched Specification of Letters Patent.

higher on the inner side than on the other side so as to fit the'foot.
10 is the surface extending from the front of the arch portion to the front end ofthe plate and is flat across and inclined with respect to that portion of the shoe on which it lies so that the central portion of the support normally occupies a position a distance above the instep so that the resiliency of this section of the prop can be utilized.
I claim:
A combined spring heel and instep support comprising a plate to fit within the shoe, said plate comprising a heel portion and an instep portion, the heel portion being concaved to correspond with that part of the foot, and having a spring secured to the under surface of this part of said plate and arranged to rest in the heel of the shoe, and the instep portion being concaved and extending slightly higher on the inner side so as to correspond to the curvature of the instep of the wearer, the front part of this instep portion of said plate being fiat across and being inclined with respect to that portion of the shoe on which it lies.
HENRY FRANK GEIGER.
