FOLDING SHOE-POLISHING STAND.
Application filed September 12, 1922. Serial No. 567,871.
TO (IN whom it 7?? 012 concern:
Be it known that 1, JAMES HERBERT Earn, a citizen of the United. States. residing at West Cheshire, in the county of New Haven and State of Connecticut, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Folding Shoe-Polishing Stands; and I do hereby declare the following, when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings and the characters of reference marked thereon, to be a full, clear, and exact description of the same, and which said drawings constitute part of this application, and represent, 1n
Fig. l a plan view of my improved folding shoe-polishing stand as folded.
Fig. 2 a plan view thereof as open.
Fig. 3 a view thereof in side elevation as open and ready for use, with the pivotal supports shown in their folded positions by broken lines.
My invention relates to an improved folding shoe-polishing stand, the object being to produce, at a low cost for manufacture, an extremely simple, strong, compact, effective and convenient device of the character described.
With these ends in view, my invention consists in a folding shoe-polishing stand having certain details of construction and combinations of parts as will be hereinafter described and pointed out in the claim.
In carrying out my invention, as herein shown, I employ a foot-plate 5 having the general outline of the sole and heel of a shoe, its sole and heel portions being separated by a vertical transverse shoulder 6 for engagement by the forward edge of the heel during the polishing operation. The under portion of the plate is formed with an axial reinforcing-web 7 though this is not imperative. At its forward end, the foot-plate 5 is formed with a pair of forwardly-raked and laterallyspread, integral mounting arms 8, perforated as at 9, near their upper ends and formed upon the forward edges of their lower ends with outwardly-projecting positive stops 10, and upon the rear edges of their lower ends with retainingbosses 11. At its heel end, the plate is formed with a corresponding pair of integral, rearwardly-raked and laterally-spread mounting-arms 12 having perforations 13, positive stops 1% and retaining-bosses 15,
the former being located 'upon the rear edges of the arms, while the latter are located upon the forward edges thereof, reversing the location of the corresponding stops and bosses u oon'the corresponding mounting-arms at t 1e forward end of the plate. The mounting-arms at the forward end of the plate carry a pivotal or folding support made of a single piece of heavy wire and comprising a bottom-reach 16 and two inwardly-inclined yielding side-bars 1'7 bent inwardly at their upper ends to form trunnions 18, which enter the holes 9 in the arms 8. The heel end of the foot-plate 5 is provided with a similar one-piece support, the trunnions of which are entered into the perforations 13 in the depending mountingarms 12. The said stops and bosses are separated from each other just enough to receive the upper ends of the arms between them. As shown, the stops and bosses are located opposite each other, but this is not essential.
In the collapsed position of the supports, the forward support is folded first so that its bottom-reach 16 falls into position in front of the shoulder 6 of the heel-plate. The rear support is'then folded upon the forward support, so as to lie parallel therewith. As thus folded, the article occupies very little space and may be conveniently packed in a suitcase, if desired. In using the device, the supports are swung into their open positions, in which they are inclined forwardly and rearwardly, so as to form a rigid support for it, and so that the weight of the foot upon the foot-plate tends to increase the rigidity and stability of the device. When the forward support is swung into its open position, its side arms engage with the retaining-bosses 11 over which they are sprung, after which they snap back into position between the bosses 11 and the positive stops 10. When the rear support is thrown into its open position, its side arms correspondingly spring over the re-' taining-bosses 15, after which they snap into position between the same and the positive stops 1 1. In thus going into their final positions, the trunnions 18 of the supports move laterally in the bearing-openings 9 and 13 in the mounting-arms.
My improved folding shoe-polishing stand, as thus constructed, consists of but three elements, all of which are simple and strong, and of such form and construction as to enable them to be readily operated.
I claim:
In a folding shoe-polishing stand, the combination with a foot-plate provided at its forward end with a pair of forwardlyraked and laterally-spread, depending, integral mounting-arms and at its rear end with a complementary pair of rearwardlyraked and laterally-spread, integral, de-
' endin mountin -arms each of the sair arms having a horizontal perforation, a positive stop and a retaining-boss, the said stop and boss of each arm being located below the perforation thereof; of one-piece rear and forward wire-supports, each cornprising a bott0rn-reach and two inwardlyinclineol yielding arms, the latter terminating at their upper ends in inwardly-turned trunnions entering the perforations of the mounting-arms, the stops and bosses whereof are spaced apart so as to receive between them the upper ends of the yielding arms of the supports when the same are in their 25 open or raked positions.
In testimony whereof, I have signed this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
