UNITED STATES WILLIAM R. ENGLAND, OF GALION, OHIO.
SHOE-TREE.
Application inea August 13, 1921. seriai No. 491,929.
To all whom t may conce/m.'
Be it lnown that I, IVILLIAM R. ENGLAND, a citizen of the United States, resident of Galion, county of Crawford, and State of Ohio, have invented new and useful Improvements in Shoe-Trees, of which the following is a specification, the principle of the invention being herein explained and the best mode in which I have contemplated applying that principle so as to distinguish it from other inventions.
My invention relates to shoe trees and particularly to that class thereof wherein wooden toe and heel forms are connected by means of an intermediate iiexible and elastic steel member. The object of the invention is to produce a shoe tree of the above described character which will be simple and hence economical of construction and which will be capable of efficiently performing its function.
The said invention consists of means hereinafter fully described and particularly set forth in the claims.
In said annexed drawings:
Figure l represents a broken plan view of the preferred form of my improved shoe tree;
vFigure 2 represents a side elevation of the elements shown in Figure l;
Figure 3 represents a broken plan View of the intermediate flexible strip;
Figure 4 represents a transverse vertical section, taken in the plane indicated by the line IV-IV, Figure I;
Figures 5 and 6 represent sections similar to Figure 4, but showing, respectively, slight modifications.
The illustrated embodiment of my invention includes a wooden front or toe form l having the usual flat bottom, a wooden rear or heel form 2 and an intermediate cony. necting thin elastic steel band 3. The two After the band has been forced into the toe and heel-members as described, nails l1l are driven downwardly from the top into the respective membersand vso as to pass through the holes 4 `and thus intersects the band.` The holes 4 are enlarged as compared With the thickness of the nail so that the latter may be driven without the necessity of exercising extreme care in positioning same so as to pass into said holes.
the wooden members loosen during use, the nails prevent the withdrawal and separation of the said band and members.
The said nails may be driven from the top or bottom as shown in Figs. 4 and 5, so as to pass into only a portion of the members, or may be driven completely through same as shown in Fig. 6, and clinched or riveted.
lVhat I claim is:
l. In a shoe tree, the combination of a wooden toe and wooden heel form;` a fiat elastic steel band having its end portionsy rigidly embedded in said forms respectively, said end portions being each provided with a hole; anda nail driven into each of said forms and passing through said holes respectively.
2. In a shoe tree, the combination. of
wooden t'oe and heel forms; a at elastic steel band having its end portions driven Should by chance the band and either' ofinto and rigidly connected with said two forms respectively, said end portions being each provided with an enlarged hole; and a nail driven into each of said forms and passing through said enlarged holes'respectively.
Signed by me this 27 th day of July, 1921.
WILLIAM n. ENGLAND.
