Specification of Letters Patent.
Eatented June 7, 1921.
Application filed. January 14, 1920. Serial No. 351,446.
T 0 all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, FLoRENoE E. SANDERS, a citizen of the United States, residing at Benson, in the county of Swift, State of Minnesota, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Shoe-Racks; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
This invention relates to new and useful improvements in devices for holding shoes.
One object of the present invention is to provide a novel and improved device upon which shoes are arranged to be suspended, for display purposes, or for private use for the purpose of obviating the usual practice of placing shoes on the floor.
Another object is to provide a novel and improved device of this character whereby the shoes may be suspended in several different ways and be firmly held against dislodgment.
Other objects and advantages will be apparent from the following description when taken in connection with the accompanying drawing.
In the drawing:
The figure is a perspective view of the shoe rack secured on a base board, and showing three methods of suspending shoes thereon.
Referring particularly to the accompanying drawing, it will be seen that the shoe rack is formed from a single length of suitable stiff wire, bent to form the horizontal elongated rectangular frame 16 which is secured to the base board 15, the cornersof said wire frame being formed with eyes 13 and 17 through which are passed the screws 14 and 18, for securing the frame to the base. The intermediate portion of one of the longer sides of the frame 16 is formed with a plurality of upwardly extending parallel arms 10 which arms are twisted adjacent their junction with the said side of the frame, and have their lower portions extending in upward divergent relation to points about midway of the lengths of said arms. At these intermediate points the arms are bent inwardly to form the shoulders 10, and thence extended upwardly in close parallel relation. The upper ends of the arms are bent outwardly at approximately right angles to the arms, and connected by the curved bight portions 12, the portions between the arms 10 and the bight portions being bent downwardly into bowed formation.
One manner of suspending a shoe on the rack is disclosed at A in the figure, wherein the portion 12 is disposed in the heel portion of the shoe, with the toe of the shoe directed downwardly. In the drawing, at B, the shoe is suspended by inserting the topmost button of the shoe within the space between the outwardly turned upper ends of the arms 10. A still further manner of suspending shoes is shown at C, wherein the laces of the pair of shoes are tied together and then draped over the outwardly extending portions of the arms 10 and within the bowed formation thereof.
While the wire frame is shown as secured to a base board, it will be understood that it may be attached to the floor, to the baseboard of a wall, or to a door, with equal effectiveness.
The device is also adapted to be secured to a closet door for private use, or in a hallway.
What is claimed is:
A shoe rack formed from a single length i of wire and including a horizontal elongated rectangular base frame adapted for attachment to a support, vertical parallel arms emanating from one of the longer sides of the frame and being twisted at their points of emanation from the said side andv bein disposed in divergent relation from said points to the approximate centers of said arms, the arms being thence extended upwardly in parallel proximity and connected by a laterally extending and downwardly bowed bight portion.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
FLORENCE E. SANDERS.
