B. R. NYHAGEN RUBBER OVERSHOE Filed June 27, 1924 72 INVENTOR Z QLQ'WJZ.
ATTORNEY Patented May 12, 1925.
BARNEY R. NYHAGEN, OF NEW YORK, N.. Y.
RUBBER OVERSHOE.
Application filed June 27, 1924. Serial No. 722,725.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, BARNEY R. NYHAGEN, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of New York, borough of Bronx, in
the county of Bronx and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in a Rubber Overshoe, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact specification.
This invention relates more to a class of footwear.
My invention has for its object primarily to provide an overshoe designed to be em loyed by a person as a slip-on for preventmg the feet from getting wet during inclement weather, and which is preferably made of uniformly thin sheet rubber in fiat form to allow being folded into a compact parcel so that a person may carry a pair of the shoes in the pocket or in a hand bag as well as enabling the shoes to be sold at a price whereby a pair may be economically purchased for use in emergency and afterward dispensed with if desired. It is also contemplated to provide the shoes of a form adapted to be worn by children and adults over the stockings to keep the feet warm during cold weather as occasion requires. The invention consists essentially of a shoe of sheet rubber as being light in weight and very elastic, and which isof a form including two corresponding relatively thin fiat side walls, each substantially the shape of the contour lengthwise of a human foot.
particularly The edges of the walls exclusive of the entrance portion to the shoe are integrally formed, whereby the walls are normally disposed in lapping relation to permit of being folded into a small parcel so that a pair of the shoes may be conveniently carried for use in emergency, and forms of the shoe may also be made having perforations in the upper part of the foot portion'to adapt it for use over the stockings of the wearer for keeping the feet warm.
A further object of the invention is to provide a rubber overshoe of a simple and efficient form which may be made in appropriate sizes.
With these and other objects in view, the invention will be hereinafter more. fullytdescribed with reference to the accompanying drawing forming a part of this speclfication in which similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the views,
and will then be pointed out in the claims at the endof the description.
In the drawing, Figure 1 is a side elevation of one form of rubber overshoe embodying my invention.
Fig. '2 is a longitudinal vertical section taken through the overshoe- Fig. 3 is a sectional View taken on the line 33 of Fig. 2, and
Fig. 4 is a side elevation of a slightly modified form of the overshoe.
The overshoe is preferably made of sheet rubber of relative thinness and elasticity to permit when worn of assuming a shape so that it will removably fit somewhat closely over the shoe, or over the stocking or bare foot of the wearer for keeping the feet dry and warm during inclement weather as well as enabling its use elsewhere as occasion requires. V
The shoe has a foot portion or casing 10 which is hollow with its entrance, as 11, provided as usual at the ankle part, and the foot portion is made preferabl of uniform thickness throughout to avoi forming a thickness at the sole part proper of the shoe. This foot portion includes two correspond ing flat side walls 12 and 13 both of shapes approximately similar to the contour lengthwise of a human foot, and each side wall thereby is formed with a front foot part 14 and heel part 15. The side walls may also be formed to provide the foot portion 10 with an archpart, though such formation is not provided in the forms of the side walls illustrated.
The entire shoe is molded or otherwise I made with parts of the edges of the side walls 12 and 13, exclusive of the parts thereof at the entrance 11 being integrally formed, and at the intersecting edge parts is provided a fold or crease 16 which extends throughout the central part of the foot portion 10 from the front part to the rear part of the entrance 11. The side walls 12 and 13 are thereby disposed normally in lapping relation for allowing a pair of the overshoes to be folded into a compact parcel tobe conveniently carried by a person in the pocket or in a hand bag for use in emergency. By also making the overshoes in this form of thin sheet elastic they may be offered for sale at an unusually moderate price in various places to permit of being economically purchased and dispensed with if desired after being once used. Moreover, by making the shoes of thin rubber forms may be provided with perforations, as 17, in the side walls of the foot portion 10 to adapt the shoes for utilization on the bare feet or over the stockings of children and adults when it is desired to keep the feet dry and warm during wet and cold weather. p
In the foregoing description, I have embodied the preferred form of my invention, but I do not wish to be understood as limiting myself thereto, as I am aware that modifications may be made therein without departing from the principle or sacrificing any of the advantages of this invention, therefore, I reserve to myself the rightto make such changes as fairly fall within the scope thereof.
Having thus described my invention, I
' claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent 1. An overshoe of relatively thin sheet elastic, having two flat walls normally lapping upon each other and the edges of the walls exclusive of the entrance being integral.
2. An overshoe of uniform relatively thin sheet elastic having throughout its length a crease extending from the front to the rear of the entrance for providing two side walls normally lapping upon each other.
3. An overshoe of relatively thin sheet elastic, including two corresponding flat side walls, each approximately the shape of the contour lengthwise of a human foot and having their edges exclusive of the entrance portion integrally formed, whereby the walls are normally disposed in lapping relation.
4. An overshoe of sheet rubber, having] a foot portion of uniform thinness throughout to avoid providing a sole member of greater thickness than the upper part of the foot portion, said foot portioncomposed of two corresponding flat side walls, cachapproxi- 'mately the shape of the contour lengthwise of a human foot and having their edges exclusive of the entrance portion integrally formed, whereby the walls are normally disposed in lapping relation.
5. An overshoe of relatively thin elastic, having two perforated flat walls normally lapping upon each other and the edges of the walls exclusive of the entrance being integral.
6. An overshoe of uniform relatively thin sheet elastic having throughout its length a crease extending from the front to therear of the entrance for providing two side walls normally lapping upon each other, and the wfalls having perforations in portions there- 0 7. An overshoe of relatively thin elastic including two corresponding flat perforated side walls, each approximately the shape of the contour lengthwise of a human foot and having their edges exclusive of the entrance portion integrally formed, whereby the walls are normally disposed in lapping relation.
8. An overshoe of sheet rubber, having a foot portion of uniform thinness throughout ,to avoid providing a sole member of greater thickness than the upper part of the foot portion, said foot portion composed of two corresponding flat perforated side walls, each approximately the shape of the contour lengthwise of a human foot and having their edges exclusive of the entrance portion integrally formed, whereby the walls are normally disposed in lapping relation.
This specification signed and witnessed this 26 day of June A. D. 1924.
BARNEY R. NYHAGEN.
