BLOW-OUT SHOE.

yApplication 1ed'-0ctober 28, 1918. Serial No. 259,952.
To all w kom t may concern Be it known that T, R. Moenia, a citizen of the United States, residing at `Dallas, inthe county of Dallas and State of ner tubes of pneumatic tires.
The particular feature of the invention resides in .a means of fastening the shoe without the` use of laces or metallic connections and involving a soft pliable but posi- "i tive fastening which will securely hold the shoe in place and also lie fiat within the casing which is very desirable.
In carrying out the invention a split sleeve formed of layers of tire fabric is provided with an internal tongue lying between the edges of the sleeve and the tube when said sleeve is placed thereon. A fastening` strip is secured along each edge portion of the sleeve so as to overhang the same, One of these strips is provided with elongated spaced eyes while the other strip is provided with T-shaped lugs formed integral with and of the same material as the strip. The shanks of the lugs have a width substantially the same as the length of each eye, so that when the lugs are engaged in the eyes the heads will extend beyond each end of the eyes and the shoulders formed at the intersections of the heads and shanks will prevent said heads from withdrawing from the eyes. It is understood that in inserting the lugs in the eyes one end must first be passed through the eyes and the other end folded so as to also pass through, after which the heads may be straightened out.
A fastening of this nature is efficiently and quickly operated both in fastening and unfastening.
The invention will be more readily under stood from a reading of the following specification and by reference to the accompanying drawings, in which an example of the invention is illustrated, and wherein- Figure l illustrates a portion of an inner tube showing a shoe constructed in accordance with this invention and fastened on the tube,
Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the same parts with a portion of casing shown in section and elevation,
Fig. 3 is a cross sectional view of the tube and shoe and a portion of the tire casing, and
Fig. 4l is a perspective view of one end of the shoeshowing the'same unfastened.
In the drawings' the'numeral l designates an elongated split sleeve composed of superimposed layersV of tire fabric or other suitable material terminating at each end in stepped order, the innermost' layer being longest. The layers terminate iiush 'along the `split edges of the sleeve. A tongue 2 composed of superimposed layers is disposed within the sleeve and' extends across the gap between the edges.
`Fastening strips 3 and l respectively are disposed along the longitudinal edges of the sleeve and secured by stitches 3 and 4E.
The stitches 3 pass through the layers of the sleeve and the uppermost layer. of .the tongue, while the stitches el merely pass through the sleeve. lVhen the sleeve is placed about a tube the tongue 2 protects the tube from the stitches 4f, and the inner layer of the tongue protects said tube from 'the stitches 3. Thus the tube contacts only with the fabric of the sleeve and tongue. l
The strip 3 overhangs the edge of the sleeve and is provided with slots or elongated eyes 5 spaced longitudinally yof the strip. The strip al also overhangs the edge of the sleeve and has its overhanging portion formed into T shaped lugs 6 Vhaving elongated shanks 7 attaching them to the bodv of the strip. The shanks are wide enough tb substantially fill the eyes so that the heads of the lugs will extend on each side of said eyes as is shown in Fig. l. The shoulders formed at the intersection of the heads and the shanks bear on the strip 3 and prevent withdrawal of the lugs. In fastening the strips together one end of the head of a lug is first passed through the corresponding eye and then the other end is doubled over and passed through the eye which may be accomplished owing to the flexible nature of the material. After the head is completely through the eye it is flattened out, as shown in Fig. l. The elongated shank 7 permits a free manipulation of the lugs and fa.- cilitates the fastening. When it is desired to unfasten the shoe the operation is reversed. It will be seen that the heads of the lugs lie flat on the strip 3 and when the shoe is in the casing and subjected to the air pressure of the tube the lugs cannot curl up or become displaced. There is no lace or fastening member to become broken. The shoe may be quickly applied and fastened and is inexpensive. The strips 3 and 4 may be made of tire fabric the same as the sleeve.
The elongated shanks make the sleeve adjustable in diameter. All inner tubes are not exact to size; for instance one 4 inch tube will be found to be larger than another 4 inch tube, so that if the elongated Shanks Were not provided the sleeve would buckle on undersized tubes and would have to be stretched for oversized tubes. Further the Shanks permit the sleeve edges to be brought together and overlapped so as to reduce the diameter of the sleeve and compress the tube to facilitate inserting in the casing.
'Vhat I claim is- A blow out shoe for inner tubes comprising a split sleeve composed of a plurality of superposed layers terminating at each end in stepped order with the inner most layer, the longest, a tongue adapted to bridge the gap in the split sleeve located on the interior of the sleeve and composed of superposed layers, fastening strips at the split edges ofthe sleeve, a line of stitching passing through one of said strips, the sev eral layers of the sleeve and the inner layer of the tongue and prevented from coming in Contact With the inner tube by the outer layer of the tongue; a second line of stitching going through the other strip and the several layers of the sleeve, the free end of the tongue adapted to cover the latter line of stitching, said strips provided With interlocking portions for maintaining the strips" from spreading beyond a predetermined distance and the interlocking portions `being adapted to slide upon each other to admit contraction of the split sleeve Without bulking said strips.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature LEE R. MOORE.
