To aZZ 10710? itmay concem: y p
Be it known that I, lVILLm F. STARCK, a citizen of the United States, residing in the city and county of San Francisco and State of California, have invented a new and useful Improvement ina Shoe Rack, of which thet'ollowing is a' specification.
My invention relates to improvenents in shoe racks whereina single wire or metallic 'od is bent to form upper and lower horizontal bars to engage and suspend one or more .shoes vcrtically and adjac'ent 'a ve'rtical surface to reduce the horizontal space required for storing, and wherein saidrack is also' fol-med with legs having eyelets formed in the ends thereof whereby said rack may be Secured in .vertical position and in spaced relation to a vertical surface.
The primary object of the present invention is to provide a new and improved shoe rack.
Another ob'ect is to .provide a new and improved devce of the character described having improved and simplified means, permitting an economicalproduction, for enin a vertical position and adjacent a vertical surface, such as the wall or on the inside of the door of a closet or other similar compartment, in order to minimize the horizontal space occupied by'said shoes.
A further object is to provide a shoe rack of the .type set for-th which may be easily and economically constructed from a single piece or length of wre, so bent to form an entire and complete structure arranged to carry out the purposes of a shoe rack.
A still further object is to form a shoe rack from a single piece of wire or metallic rod, and having upper and lower horizontal bars or rods to engage the heel and sole respectively of one or more shoes and effectively retain said shoes in a vertical position and adjacent a vertical surface such as the wall of a small compartment or closet in order to reduce the horizontal or floor space occupied by said shoes when not in I when the rack s formed n such manner t use.
I accomplish these and other objects by means of the improved device disclosed in the drawings forming a part of the present specification wherein like charactersof reference are used to designate similar parts throughout the said specficaton and draw ings, and in which-e Fg. 1 s a perspectve view of my mproved shoe rack, disclosing the manner in which the entire rack is formed from a single piece or length of wire; and i Fig. 2 isan end elevation disclosing the shoe raclc attached to a vertical surface and supporting a shoe.
4 Referring to the drawings the numeral 1 is used to designate an upper horizontal bar formed of a single piece or length of wire 'or Inetallic rod having lateral portions on each end thereof formed into return bends to provide legs 2 having eyelets 3 arranged at right angles to the said legs 2 and slightly above the bar -1 when the shoe rack is in a vertical or operative position, in order tt) hold the said bar 1 in spaced relation to a vertical surface 4, such as the wall of a closet or the inside of a door or small compartnent, as disclosed in' Fi 2 of 'the drawings, the purpose of whic spaced relation will fully set forth.
` 'After forming the legs 2 the wire is again bent substantially at right anglesbut downwardly and slightly inwardly toward the plane of the eyelets 3 to form vertical members 6 having formed at their lower ends suitable loops 7 whose inner sides are arranged to rest against the vertical surface 4, and thence, continuing, the ends of the wire are bent at right angles to the legs or members 6 and toward each other where the said ends are firmly connected by twisting said ends together as at 8 in order' to form a lower'horizontal bar 9 preferably arranged parallel with and directly below the upper horizontal bar 1.
While I have shown and described the ends of the wire forming the shoe rack as being connected in the approximate center of the lower bar 9 it is obvious that said ends may efl'ectively be connected in a number of other places within the 'shoe rack without departing from the spirit of the invention. 4
I prefer to connect said ends at said place as described, however, for the reason that or small compartment, or on the inside of a door and Secured in such position by means the eyelets 3 and into said vertical surface in Fig. 2 of the drawings. The screws 10` hold the shoegrack firn'ly against said vertical surface with the upperr rail o -r rod 1. in
spaced relation to said' vertical surface 4.
so that the heel ll-of one. o'r more shoes 12 may be hooked over or 1 whereby saicl shoe 12-may be Suspended and supporteclin a vertical position, and acljaceut the verticalsurface 4, this position 5 said lower barin spacecl relaton thereto,
being further supported bythe lower rod or rail 9 which engagesthe' sole at the toe of the shoe 12, thereby maintaining the said shoe 11 in a vertical position where it will occupy less space horizontally thanif the shoe or shoes were placed intheir natural pos'tion upon the floor, thereby efieeting a saving of space within closets and small compartments, where space s at a premium, as Well as saving the shoes fronrdamage 'by being trod upon inadvertently.
Having thus described my 1n vent1on what I claim as new and ters Patent is 1. A shoe raok for storing and holding shoes comprising a sngle wire bentto form upper and lower Parallel and horizontally disposed bars and having legs forined with eyelets there'ii adjacent the upper bar whereby said raek may be Secured in spa ced relation to a vertical surface, and loops forned .atljacent the lower bar. to engage said vertical surface and thereby hold said lower bar in spaced relation to said surface, said upper and lower bars being arranged to' engage the heel and sole respecdesire to' secure by Lettively of one or nore shoes and suspend the same vertically adjacent said vertical surface whereby said shoes may be stored within a minimum horizontal space.
2. A shoe rack for storing and holding shoes comprising a single wire bent to form a substantially reetangular frame having hung upon said rod upper and lower arallel and horizontal bars connected' by substantially vertical end portions, saidend portions and the upper horizontal bar having portions extended rearwardly in arallel' proxima-te relation to form legs having eyelets formed at the ends thereof whereby said raek may be Secured in spaced relation to a vertical surface; and rearwardly extended loops formed at the juncture of the lower bar and the end portions to engage the vertical surface and hold said upper andlower bars being arranged to engage the heel and sole respeetively of one or more shoes and suspend the same vertically adjacent said vertical surface Whereby saidshoes may be stored within a minimum horizontal space.
3. A shoe rack for storing and holding shoes compris ng a single wire bent to form a substantially rectangular frame having upper and lower parallel and horizontal -bars connected by substantially vertical end. portions, said end portons and the upper horizontal har having portions extended rearwardly in parallel proximate relation to form legs having upwardly turned eyelets formed at the ends thereof whereby said rackmaybe' secured in spaced relation to a vertical surface; and rearwardly extended loopsiformed at the juncture of the lower bar and the end portions to engage the vertical surface and hold said lower bar in spaced relation thereto, said upper and lower bars being arranged to engage the heel and sole respectively of one or more shoes and suspend the same vertically adjacent said vertical surface Whereby said WILLIAM F. STARCK.
