RUBBER-RETAINER. y f I Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Aug. 27, i918.
Application led December 6, 1917. Serial No. 205,824.
To all whom t may Concern:
Be it known that I, Ponus J. YOUNG, citizen of the United States, residing at Santa Susana, in the county of Ventura and State of California, have invented certain new and usefulA Improvements in Rubber-Retainers, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to overshoe retainers having for its object the production of a device which may be conveniently associated with a shoe and then clasped to the rubber overshoe in a convenient manner.
Another object of the invention is to provide a means which will not unduly encumber the shoe and which will in no way retard locomotion of thewearer and will prevent friction caused by the rear end of the rubber' moving up and down on the shoe.
The above and other objects and advantages of this invention will be in part described, and in part understood from the following description of the present preferred embodiment, the same being illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure l is a side elevational view of a retainer constructed in accordance with my invention illustrating the application of the same.
F ig. 2 is a rear elevation thereof.
Fig. 3 is a top plan view of the same and Fig. 4 is a transverse sectional View of the device in use.
In the drawings in order to illustrate the operation of my device a portion of a shoe l and a portion of an overshoe 2 has been shown.
My improved retaining device is shown as associated with the shoe 1 and overshoe 2 and in this instance comprises a frame generally designated 3 consisting of a vertical strip 4 which has arms 5 extended laterally therefrom and arcuated so as to embrace the shoe upper in proximity to the heel of the shoe. The vertical strip 4 extends downwardly beyond the arms 5 and has its lower terminal curved inwardly to provide a lip 6 which is engaged between the upper space of the heel and the upper of the shoe. The free ends of the arms 5 are apertured and have mounted therein the ends of a suitable elastic element 7 The elastic element in this instance comprises a rubber band although it is to be understood that any analogous tensioning device may be used. It will also be noted that the arms 5 are inclined downwardly toward their terminals so that the elastic element may be more readily engaged around the hccl vof the shoe.
A clasp member 8 is formed on the upper outer face of the vertical strip 4 and engages over the upper margin of the overshoe 2. In this way the overshoe will be positively retained from displacement, and at the same time does not interfere with the wearer of the slice.
The frame 3 may be made of any suitable material but it .has been found that a very thin metal will produce the best results and will reduce the cost of manufacture to a minimum.
It will be understood that the above description and accompanying drawings comprehend only the general and preferred embodiment of my invention and that various minor changes in details of construction, proportion and arrangement of parts may be made within the scope of the appended claims without sacrificing any of the advantages of my invention.
What I claim is:
l. An overshoe retainer including an integral frame consisting of a vertical member engaged with the back of the shoe and within the confines of the overshoe and having lateral extensions formed thereon to embrace the sides of the shoe, means engaged with the upper terminal of the vertical portion for engaging the frame to the overshoe and retaining means engaged with the free terminals of the extensions for connecting the frame to the shoe.
2. An overshoe retainer including a frame consisting of a vertical strip adapted to engage with the shoe and having-its lower terminal curved inwardly to project between the top of the heel and the shoe upper, arms extending laterally from said vertical strip and embracing the shoe, means connected to said arms for holding the frame on the shoe, and retaining means on the frame adapted to engage the overshoe.
3. An overshoe retainer includinff a frame consisting of a vertical strip having a lip formed on its lower end to engage between the heel and the shoe upper, arms extending laterally from said strip and embracing the shoe upper, au -eastio element associated In testimony whereof I ax my Signa- Wlth the free ends of sild arms and adapted ture 1n presence of two Wltnesses.
to extend around the breast face of the hee] PGRUS J. YOUNG. of the shoe, and L Clasp mounted on the fftnesses:
upper end of Jehe Vertical strip and adapted H. A. PETERSON,
to engage the oVer'shoe. 'RAYMOND POOR.
