RUBBER SO'LIE.
Application filed October 19, 1921.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that l, lioUis COLELLA, a subject of the King of Italy, residing at Detroit, in the county of Wayne and State of: lrilichigan, have invented a certain new and. useful Improvement in RubberSoles, oi which the following is a specification.
l /.ly invention relates to a new and useful improvement in a rubber sole and has for its object the provision of a rubber sole to be temporarily attached to a shoe which will be simple of structure, economic of manufacture and highly eflicient in use.
Another object is the. provision of a rubber sole which may be temporarily attached to a shoe and which will be so constructed as to afford an absolutely watertight connec tion with the shoe and provide a waterproof sole for the shoe.
Another object is the provision in a rubber sole of metallic spring retaining mem bers which will serve to retain the sole in position on the shoe.
ther objects will appear hereinafter.
The inventionconsists in the combination and arrangement of parts hereinafter de scribed and claimed.
The invention will be best understood by reference to the accompanying drawings which form a part of this specification and in which,
Flog. 1, is aside elevational view of the invention, showing it attached to a shoe,-
Fig. 2, is a top plan view of the invention.
Fig. 3, is a sectional view taken on line of Fig. 2,

Fig. 5, is a sectional view taken on substantially line 5-5 of Fig. 2. j
The invention is designed to provide a rubber sole which ma} be slipped over the sole of a shoe and temporarily attached thereto so as to provide a waterproof sole which may be easily removed and which will be so attached as to prevent its removal from the shoe while the same is being worn. It comprises a main sole portion 8 which is preferably constructed from rubber or some other waterproof material. Projecting upwardly from this sole portion, at right angles thereto, is a flange portion 9,-projecting inwardly from which, at the upper end thereof, is a flange forming portion 10. Projecting upwardly from this portion, at right angles thereto,
Serial No. 508,715.
is a flange forming portion 11. All of these flange forming portions are at right angles to the portion from which they project and are preferably formed from rubber. Embedded in the portions 8, 9, and '10 adjacent the shank of the device, at opposite sides of the sole-forming portion 8 are spring metallic clips or retaining members 12, each of which is provided with a slot 13 through which the rubber of the sole will flow when the clips are embedded in position, it being preferable that these clips be mounted in position during the molding of the sole. Each of these clips is provided, adjacent one end with an upwardly, angularly extending portion 14 from which projects an upwardly, inwardly extending portion 15. At the opposite end of these clips there projects an angularly downwardly extending member or portion 16. It will be noted that the portions 8 and 10 together with the portion 9 form a sort of passage or channel. In assembling the sole on a shoe the sole of the shoe 7 is engaged in the passage 17 and the device is then forced rearwardly onto the shoe, the sole of the shoe, as it passes along the passage. forcing the rubber sole to stretch and spread at the narrow portion or shank. As the sole of the shoe passes into place the rubber sole returns to its former shape and securely binds the shoe. The portion 10 engages the upper surface of the extending edge of the shoe sole and fits snugly thereto. The portion 11 engages the lower portion of the upper otthe shoeand fits snugly thereto so that no water may flow from the upper of the shoe intothe passage, 17. The clips serve as a reinforcement of that portion of the rubber sole which is subjected to the greatest wear when the sole is being placed on the shoe and removed therefrom. The portion of the clips which is embedded in the portion 8. 9 and 10 of the rubber sole serve to retain these portions in close engagement with the shoe at all times. The downwardly turned portion 16 serves to prevent any movement of the main body of the clip in the portion 8, thereby assisting the rubber which has flowed through the opening 13 to resist longitudinal thrusts. The device is removed from the shoe in the reverse manner to. the way it is put on. It is necessary that forwardly directed pressure he applied to the rear portion of the soleB; 7 v
n is also to be noted that the shank of the invention is turned upwardly from the plane ot' the main body of the sole so that a snug engagement is provided for at the arch of the shoe. In this Way I have provided a rubber over-sole which affords the the greatest protection against moisture and at the same time is neat in appearance. I
have also? reduced to a minimum the probability of the sole coining loose from the shoe While being Worn.
While I have illustrated the preferred form of construction I do not Wish to limit myself to the precise detail of structure set forth but desire to avail myself of all the modifications and changes which CORlf'Wlhllin the scope of the appended claims.
Having thusdescribed my invention What I claini as new and desire to secure" by Letters Patent is: g
1. A retaining clip for a removable sole comprising a longitudinal metallic body portion having an elongated slot "formed there'- in; a double angularly turned portion adjacent one end of said body portion; and an angularly turned integral portion ad jacent the opposite end of said body portion, said double angularly turned portion being adapted for engaging the side of a sole for retaining the removable sole thereon.
2. A retaining clip for a removable sole comprising a main body portion having an elongated slot formed therein; an angularly turned portion adjacent one end-of said main body portion and integral therewith; an angularly turned portion adjacent the end of said angnlarly turned portioin said po" ';ns being adapted for gripping the sole th which used; and an angularly oppositely turned portion adjacent the op posite end oi said main body portion, for anchoring the same to said removable sole.
In testimony whereof I have signed the above and foregoing specification at Detroit, Michigan.
