ports and more particularly to foot arch supports and has for its object to provide a device of this kind that is simple, is readily applied, can be adjusted to feet of various sizes and which will serve to effectually support the arch of the foot and will conform itself readily to the arch and instep and surface structure and that is inexpensive in cost of construction and of low selling price.
The invention consists of features illustrated in the accompanying drawings and described and claimed hereinafter.
Figure 1 is a perspective of the device as applied to a foot.
F 2 is a plan view of the ankle band detached from the foot.
Fig. 3 is a plan view of the stirrup for arch supporting portion of the device.
big. 4; is a section on line 4.-4t of rig. 2.
Fig. 5 is a section on line 5--5 of Fig. 3.
The device comprises, essentially, two pieces of a pliant material or construction 1 forming an ankle band 2 made up of fabric or other suitable flexible material and which may be laminated in construction as of front and rear sheets 3 and t stitched together marginally or otherwise as at 5. The transverse end. of the member forming the angle band may be suitably secured together around the ankle as is shown in Fig. 1 as by lacing 6 which can be threaded through respective eyelets or apertures 7.
The outer surface of the ankle band 2 is preferably-provided with fastening means as buckles 8 to which the stirrup or arch engaging member, hereinafter described, can be adjustably connected. 2 may be elastic or inelastic, and when elasticity is desired it may be secured as by cutting a notch in one of the longitudinal edges of the band and securing elastic gusset 9 to the band across said notch so that the band can readily adapt itself to the contour of the ankle and will permit the play of the tendons and muscles without cramping or pinching.
To secure the arch. supporting effect, I Provide a s r up manner 0 wh h i Pr f The ankle hand Specification of Letters Patent. Patented Aug. 31, 1920.
Application filed November 7, 1919.
Serial No. 336,402.
erably made of inelastic material and is in the form of a strip the ends of which are of reduced width as indicated at 11 and perforated at 12, in this case, to be connected to the fastening buckles 8-8 which are ar ran ed on opposite sides of the ankle band, Fig. 1. Obviously, any suitable means of attaching the stirrup forming member 10 to the ankle band 2 may be employed.
Preferably, the central or intermediate portion of the stirrup member 10 is transversely widened as at 13 to provide ample and sufficient bearing surface up against the sole of the foot, as indicated in Fig. 1, to effectually support the arch when the device is applied and the stirrup suitably tensioned as by the adjustment of its ends 11 in the .fasteningmeans 8. The stirrup member 10 may be constructed of any suitable material and if desired may be made of laminated plies of strips 14 and 15, but, preferably, the stirrup is made of inelastic material so as not to give under the tension of the downward pressure of the foot to which it is applied. This pressure, preferably, being transmitted as taken by the stirrup 10 directly to the ankle band 2.
From the above it will be seen that I have provided a device that is extremely simple and which when applied lies snugly over the foot structure and by diagonally cross ing the upwardly extending ends 11 of the stirrup these ends will be brought close round the instep of the foot and along the sides of the ankle, so that the device can be worn as applied either over a stocking or half hose, or may be applied directly in contact with the skin of the foot and ankle and the stocking or half hose drawn over the applied arch support so as to cover the same.
Various changes may be made without departing from the spirit of my invention as claimed.
I claim:
1. A11 arch support including an ankle band, a stirrup adapted to pass under the instep to support the arch, and means to ad justably secure said stirrup to the ankle band.
2. An arch support including an adjustable ankle band, a stirrup adapted to pass under the instep to support the arch, and means for adjustably securing said stirrup to the ankle hand.
8. An arch support including an ankle band a ,Stil'rup adapted to pass under the instep and cross over the arch of the foot,
: and means for adjustably securing said stirrup to the ankle band. v
4. An arch support including an adjust able ankle band, a stirrup adapted to pass 7 under the sole of the foot intermediate the 7 heel and ball thereof and diagonally crossing over the arch above the instep, and means to band and a stirrup adjustably connectible to the side of the band so as to pass under the sole of the foot to support its arch, the
* upper portion of the stirrup diagonally crossed over the instep.
6. An arch support-including an ankle band notched in one longitudinal edge, a gusset secured to sald band across said notch to glve elasticityto the. band, and a stirrup connected to the band and adapted to passunder the sole of the foot to support the arch.
7. An arch support including an ankle hand notched in one longitudinal edge,- a gusset secured to said band across said notch to give elasticity to the band, the band being provided With perforations near its end edges for lacing the hand around theankle, and a stirrup connected to said band and adapted to extend under the sole of the foot to support the arch.
In testimony whereof name to this specification.
