Definitions
- the heel clamps of skates have usually been provided at their upper ends With toothed or cutting edges formed by bending in the ends of the side pieces of the clamps, which edges are pressed into the leather of the heel and thereby hold the skate firm. It is however not possible to make these edges sharp and strong enough to be able to press them in the leather to a suflicient depth without great strain.
- This security against longitudinal displacement may suitably be still further increased by inclining the two steel cutting edges towards opposite sides.
- the skate is then so securely held in its longitudinal direction that the stop which is otherwise provided at the rear end of the skate can be dispensed with so that it becomes possible to fit the skates to boots of a number of different slzes.

- a is the heel plate of a skate and b are the two side clamping pieces which are movably fitted thereto and can be adjusted as to width in the usual manner by means of a threaded spindle which is not illustrated in the drawing.
- the upper ends of the side pieces I) are each provided with a slot 0 in which the somewhat 52,286, and. in Germany August 29, 1924.
- the steel plate is thus supported with its shoulders against the inner surface f of the side clamp 72 and its end which projects beyond the outside of the side clamp is provided with a hole in which a pin 9, which fixes the plate (Z in its position, is riveted.
- the plate d is preferably made of good quality steel and is provided on the inside with a sharp edgeh so that, when the side pieces are screwed together, it can'easily be pressed deeply into the leather of the heel without great exertion.
- the steel plates (Z fitted on the side clamps are arranged with their cutting edges h inclined to the sole and so that these the cutting edges are inclined in opposite directions.
- the joints between the small sheets of leather forming the heel are therefore overlapped obliquely so that any splitting of the leather is avoided with certainty and a thoroughly reliable fastening of the skate is obtained.
- the skate is so securely held to the boot by means of this new fastening device that the stop at the rear end of the heel plate, whioh'has hitherto usually been provided, can be dispensed with and, therefore, not only does an adjustment of the skate in the longitudinal direction of the heel become possible, but the skate can be used also for boots of greatly difi'erent sizes.
- the invention is of course not limited to the example illustrated. but other constructions are possible, thus the cutting edge of the steel plate instead of being inclined to the sole might also be arranged parallel to it and another kind of fastening for the steel plate and another shape for it might be chosen.
