Fig. 2 is a vertical longitudinal section of the same.
Like letters refer to like parts in the ditt'erent 1i gures ofthe drawing.
Our invention relates to that class of boot jacks which are provided with two pulls or places for inserting' the boot 5 and consists in a hinged platform, arranged and operating as hereinafter more fully set forth, the object being to enable the person using the jack to hold the same with greater ease and rmness while the foot is being` withdrawn.
The extreme simplicity of our invention renders an elaborate description ui'ineeessary.
The body of the boot-jack is composed of a, stout continuous metallic wire, bent to form the large bow A and smaller bow B. The platform C is constructed of thin sheet metal, and is hinged at E to the cross-pin D, being so formed as to projectslightlyv overthepartB when in the position shown in Fig. l. Dis a support or fulcrum, on which the jack rests when in usc.
From tlieforegoing description, the operation of our invention will be readily understood by all conversant with such matters. 'lhe jack being placed on the floor in. the posit-ion shown in Fig. 2, the boot to be drawn from the foot is inserted in the aperture of the bow A, Fig.
l, in the usual manner, the platform C beingturned over upon the bow B, as shown. One foot is then placed upon the platform, keeping the jack firmly in position on the iloor, while the other foot is withdrawn from the boot in the bow A. Then it is desired to use the smaller bow, B, the bow A is caused to rest upon the floor. and the platform `C is turned over upon it, in the manner described for the bow B.
The object ofthe platform is to prevent the bows from injuring or hurting the foot, and to enable the jack to be held in position with greater security and trmness.
Having thus described our invention, what we claim as new is- The boot-jack described, consisting of the bows A B, support D, and hinged platform C, constructed to operate substantially as and for the purpose described.
