' v G. J. WINTER CUSHION SHOE y Filed Jan. l5, 1924 Patented Aug. 18, 1925.
YUNITED vs'rarns GEORGE J. WINTER, OF BUFFALO, NEW YORK.
CUSHION SHOE.
Application inea January 15, 1924.' serial No. 686,397.
T 0 all whom t may concern.'
Be it known that I, GEORGE J. WINTER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Buffalo, in the county of Erie and State of New York, have invented new and useful Improvements in Cushion Shoes, of which the following is a specification.
My present invention pertains to cushion inner soles for boots, shoes and the like and it contemplates the provision of a simple and inexpensive cushioning means that forms a permanent and component part of the shoe.r i
rlhe invention further contemplates the provision of cushioning means that are adapted to be secured on the inner sole ofr a shoe and this in such a manner as to produce a neat and finished appearance to the interior of the shoe.
Further objects and advantages of the invention will be fully understood from the following description and claims when the same are read in connection with the drawings accompanying and forming part of the specification, in which Figure 1 is an inverted plan view of an inner sole equipped with my novel improvements.
Figure 2 is a top plan View of my inner sole cushioning means as showing a portion thereof in section.
Figure 3 is a longitudinal sectional View of the inner sole and cushioning means. Y
Figure 4lis a cross-section of the inner sole and cushioning means.
Similar numerals of reference designatecorresponding parts in all the views of the drawings.
My novel improvements are secured on the ordinary well known leather lor gem .welt inner sole 1 that is channeled as indicated by 2 and stitched at 3.
A layer of lambs `wool felt 5 is cut to the exact size of the leather inner sole and covers same snugly with the exception of the'heel seat. This leaves a hollow space at the heelseat thus showing the leather of the inner sole at the heel portion thereof and is done for the purpose of heeling the shoe as the nails would penetrate and clinch on theinner sole side of the *cushioning means were the layer 5 initially extended to cover the heel seat. The cavity left at the heel is filled with the felt 12 that inturn is covered by the heel plate 13 after the shoe has been heeled and hence the nails are fully n i covered and produce a perfect heel cushion. Provided in the felt 5 are a series of openings 14 for the purpose of allowing the foot to rest comfortably at the joints and at the same time the felt between thisseries of openings will support the arches between the joints of the foot thereby allowingvperfect freedom of movement of thevjoints,
separating the toes and preventing theml from vrubbing together and thus causing corns on the toe top or tips of the toes.
VAdapted to completely cover the felt 5 and cut to exactly the same shape as the felt is a covering' of canvas 6 that is stitched by the vertical stitching 7 to the felt and loose to the' edge thereof. V This strengthens the cushions and prevents them from wrinkling or bunching. I would distinctly have it understood that up to this: point, the felt and canvas are not secured to the inner sole but are free with respect thereto. When these members 5 and 6 have been stitched to each other they are secured to the inner smooth surface of the inner sole 1 by means of cement and I then use a water-proof materialpreferably linen treated with rubberV 8 that is slightly longer than the felt and is provided with a margin 9 of about 37S of an inch which rests over the smooth side stitching 11. The overlapping portion 9 to'which the smooth inner surface 10 has been stitched is then placed on the canvas- 6 and is snugly cemented around the edges and against the high portions of the channel2 as illustrated. The cushion made up in the manner illustrated is now readyto be placed on the last. The upper is pulled over for lasting .and sewing to the lip of the innersole with the overlap over-cushion to the inner sole which is the usual manner of making welt shoes. The shoes are then heeled. The placing of the heel cushion 12 and plate 13 is now resorted to.
It will be manifest from the foregoing that a shoe equipped with cushioning means such as that specified will require no breaking-in and thatrit will not be necessary for the wearer to suer because of the fact that a shoe equipped with my novel inner sole will immediately conform to the foot upon putting on of the shoes. The inner sole makes the shoe absolutely water-proof because of the overlapping water-proof material 9 and the openings 14 in the felt 5 -of the inner sole and is stitched to the r f smooth top lportion 10 by means of the act as ventilators in case of excessive perspiration and cause the perspiration to evaporate. It is a non-conductor of heat and hence may he Worn with comfort in Warm or cold Weather as the felt cushion Will cause the feet to retain their natural blood temperature.
I'Iaving described my invention, what l claim and desire to secure hv Letters-Patent is l. In a cushion shoe the combination an innersole having a smooth inner surface and a channelled outer surface` a felt pad having apertures therein and extending* from the toe of the innersole to the hase of the shank thereof, a canvas laver stitched to the felt and et the saine slape as the felt; said felt and. canvas heine: adapted to he secured to the smooth inner surface of the innersole, an overlapging` Water-prooi: material adapted to rest alcove the canvas, a smooth soit leather portion of Ithe saine configuration as the felt and stitched to the Water-proof; said Water-proof material he ing adapted to he cemented to the raised portion of the lip of' the innersole on the enter surface and a portion of i'elt adapted to rest on the heel seat of the innersole and a plate of leather adapted to he secured over the heel felt and having` an overlapping portion that rests upon the shank por tion of the smooth sott leather portion.
Q. In a cushion shoe, the combination ot an inner sole having` a smooth inner surface and a lip arranged on its outer surfacea a pad having openings therein and arranged to snughT fit the smooth surface and terminating at the lower end of the innersole shank. an independent heel plate formed of cushion material adapted to rest on the heel seat of the inner sole`l a canvas cover of a configuration similar to that of the pad and adapted to he stitched thereto, a Waterproof cover adapted to bear on th canvas and overlap the saine and cemented to the side outer Walls of the lip, a soit outer casing' stitched to the canvas and adapted to eonipletelj,v cover saine, and a heel cover having one end that hears on and is secured to the shank portion of the outer cover and adapted to hear on the heel plate, substantially as and for the purpose specitied.
In testimony Whereoi2 I have hereunto set my hand.
GEORGE J. WINTER.
