FASTENEB'.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Jan. 15, 1918.
Application filed October 27, 1916. Serial No. 128,081.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, SILVESTRE F. WILSON,
a citizen of the United States, residing. at
'Fruitvale, in the county of Alameda and State of California, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Fasteners, of which the following is a specification.
. The present invention has reference generally to fasteners and more particularly relates to a fastener especially adapted for use on shoes.
As a primary object the present invention contemplates the provision of a flexible shoe fastener capable of expanding and contracting over the instep with the movement of the foot to consequently obviate the employment of shoe laces which have a tendency to prevent circulation of blood in the foot of the wearer, thus providing for the comfort of the wearer of the shoe.
It is an equally important object of the present invention to provide novel resilient means .which have associated therewith novel engaging means for engagement with the upper of the shoe from that to whichthe resilient means is connected.
As. an additional improvement the invention embraces the provision of av novel buckle to which is connected the resilient means, the buckle being removably mounted and having the form of a cam lever whereby when engaged and swung to a closed position, the resilient means will be maintained in an operative position across the instep ofthe shoe.
A more specific feature of the present in vention consists in the provision of a hook for recei ing movement when the buckle is swung into a closed position to facilitate the operation of the latter.
Among the other aims and objects of the present invention-may be. recited the pro vision of a device of the character described,
the buckle and capable of The invention is clearly illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which: I Figurel is a perspective, showing the invention applied to a shoe,
Fig. 2 is an enlarged transverse section taken on the line 2-2,
Fig. 3 is an enlarged front elevation of one of the fasteners,
Fig. 4c is an enlarged transverse sectional detail of one form of spring,
Fig. 5 is an enlarged transverse section of another form of spring.
Similar characters of reference are employed in all of the above described views to indicate corresponding parts.
Referring now, more particularly to the accompanying drawings, I have illustrated a shoe 1 including the uppers 2 and 3 and a tongue 4. At the outset, it is to be understood that the specific construction of the shoe forms no important part of this in type such as isillu'strated in F igs. 4: and 5 are now provided. A pair of s rings 7 have their outer ends 8 connected in suitable openings 9 adjacent the ends of the attach ingplate 5, while they pass throughsuit'able openings in the upper 2 and have their "opposite ends connected in clips 10 which are in turn pivo-tally associated with my improved buckle 11. In this instanceg'the buckle is preferably formedfrom asin 1e piece of wire form to provide a body 12, the base of'which v.is pivotally associated with the clips lO,
while the intermediate portion of the base is offset in substantially U-form to provide a hook 13 while directly opposite on the vertex is formed a finger-loop 14. A receiving hook 15 is connected to the upper 3 by means of a suitable rivet 16, the hook 15 being adapted to receive the hook'13 of the buckle.
The operation of the invention is as follows:
Assuming that. the fastenersare applied to the shoe 1 andit is desired to fasten them i so that they will assume the position illuswhich is bent into triangu ar 15 arranged off cn'ter'zind th is' nelnteinithe ,l 5st: I t-n trated- "*1, the finger portion -14 of each buckle is engaged and moved against the tension of eephiiefi 7:18 stqtemfei ge the hook 13 in the hook 15. The intermediate portion of this hook. 15 now SBI'VBSJHS a pivot, while the bend in the hook 13 acts as LSD that in efieet. the buckle" serves as a cam-lever of the seeond cl z ss si noe the springs serve as the weightfvvliil the point 0, e plieatien. of PQYZQI? i 9&1 "th 199.11% A's i ckl f s swag fibel tf i T nresse l e eix s 'theiiiieer 1 7h k .15
