INVENTOR {is ATTORNEYfi 1920. ET I- WOODEN SOLE WORKING SHOE.
GEORGE W. MILLER, OF ROCHESTER, YORK.
WOODEN-SOLE WORKING-SHOE.
To all whom it may concern Ee it known that I, GEORGE W. MILLER, a citizenof the United States, residing at Rochester in the county of Monroe and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in VVooden- Sole Working-Shoes; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, and to the reference-numerals marked thereon.
My invention relates to shoes and has for its object to provide a shoe which is economical to manufacture, comfortable for the wearer, and durable. A further obj ect of my invention is to make a work shoe by a new process, said shoe having a wooden sole to which an upper of leather, canvas or the like may be securely. fastened. More specifically the object of my invention is to produce a shoe having a wooden sole formed on an ordinary last machine and provided with a groove into which is securely fastened the lower edge of the counter, and the upper which carries a wire, which is secured in the groove. To these and other ends the invention consists in certain improvements and combinations of parts, all as will be hereinafter more fully described, the novel features being pointed out in the claims at the end of the specification.
In the drawings:
Figure 1 is a side elevation of a shoe con structed according to my invention,
Fig. 2 is a transverse section through the sole taken substantially on theline 2 2 of Fig. 1,
Fig. 3 is a similar section through the heel of the shoe taken substantially on the line 3 -3 of Fig. 1,
Fig. 4 is an enlarged section showing the method of securing the upper to the sole of the shoe,
Fig. 5 is a similar view showing the method of securing the upper and counter to the heel of the shoe,
Fig. 6 is a plan view of the sole of the shoe worn on the right foot,
Fig. 7 is a longitudinal section through the sole of the shoe taken substantially on the line 7 7 of Fig. 6 and looking in the direction of the arrow at the left of said figure, and
Fig. 8 is a view similar to Flg. 7 but look- Specification of Letters Patent. 7
Patented May 4, 1920.
Application filed August 23, 1918. Serial No; 251,053.
ing in the direction of the arrow at the right of said Fig. 6.
Similar reference characters indicate similar parts in all the figures of the drawings.
My improved shoe is in the nature of an improvement on the device disclosed in my patent for wooden sole sandal, No. 1,187,005, patented June 13, 1916, and comprises a sole or bottom portion 1, made of a single piece of wood and out or turned in a last machine to the form illustrated. At its rear-end the sole is thickened to form a heel 2, and forwardly of the heel is arched to form an instep 3, and has its forward end curved upwardly at 1- for convenience in walking.
The upper side or top of the soleis formed as cleadly indicated in the sectional views in Figs. 2, 3, 7 and 8, being somewhat concave on a transverse section, an arch support just forwardly of the heel at 5, and hollowed or concaved forwardly of the arch support and adjacent the inside of the shoe at 6 to accommodate the sole and ball of the foot. It will be noted that the shape of the sole thus produced is substantially the same as that of the sole of an ordinary leather shoe. Around the entire outer edge of this sole adjacent the top thereof is formed a groove 7, in which is secured the upper of the shoe about to be described.
The upper 8 of the shoe is made of two pieces of canvas, leather or the like, cut to proper shape and sewed together over the. toe and down the back over the heel. The adjacent edges of the two pieces of the upper, from a point adjacent the top of the toe, are not sewed together, but are finished and are provided with eyelets 9 adapted to receive a lacing or cord for securing the shoe to the foot. The lower edge of the upper is folded inwardly upon itself to form a loop as shown at 10 in Fig. 4:. A cord or metal wire 11 may be led around in the fold or loop and secured therein by sewing or stitching. Properly positioned in the lower rear part of the upper is secured by sewing or stitching, as shown at 12, a counter 13 of sole leather or other suitable material. The counter is cut to proper shape and size and projects slightly below the upper of the shoe for a purpose to be presently described.
In completing the shoe, the folded lower edge of the upper containing the wire is secured in the glizoove 7 of the sole by means of staples 14. he staples pass through the fold of the upper and around the wire in the fold and may be inserted at comparatively short intervals, to securely fasten the wire and folded ed e of the upper surrounding the wire in t e groove and to the sole. Around the heel the projecting counter lies beneath the fold containing the wire and the staples are driven through the fold around the wire and through the counter lying immediately beneath the fold, drawing the counter into the bottom and closely against the sides of the groove. It will be noted that when completed the wire in the fold of the upper lies between the loop of the staple,
and the counter in the groove. When secured in the groove, any portion of the coun ter which pro ects from the groove is trimmed off to give the shoe a neat finished appearance.
It will be noted that in making this shoe, no last is used, that the upper is secured directly to the sole without reversing, that the staples which secure the upper to the sole also secure the counter thereto, and that the finished shoe is strong, durable, neat in appearance and inexpensive to make. The sole comprising both an inner and outer sole is formed to properly support the arch of the foot, making it comfortable for the wearer and is made of a single piece of wood.
Havin described my invention, what I claim an desire to secure by Letters Patent 1s:
1. A shoe comprising a one-piece wooden sole having a groove entirely around its upper edge and an upper having its lower edge folded inwardly to form a fold, a counter secured in said upper and having an outwardly projecting lower edge beneath said fold, and means for securing said fold together with the counter in said groove.
2. A shoe comprising a wooden sole havingagroove formed in its upper edge, an upper having its lower edge turned inwardly to form a fold located in said groove, a counter within said upper having its lower edge folded into said groove about and under the fold in said upper,and means for securing said upper and counter in said groove.
