UNITED STATES FRANK P. STEIL, or GUDAHY, WISCONSIN.
COUNTER.
Original application filed October 9, 1924, Serial No.'742,563. Divided and this application filed August .23, 1926. SerialNo. 131,010.
The invention relates to shoes, and more particularly to a counter for stitchdown shoes. I I
The object of this invention is to provide a novel form of counter which may be firmly attached to the heel seat portion of the shoe during the process of securing the upper thereto so that the counter will not be free to work up and down in the shoe, and so that the strains which would tend to loosen the counter from the shoe are counteracted. This application to the counter alone is a division of my copending application Serial No. 742.563, filed October 9, 1924, and is filed pursuant. to a requirement of division made by the Patent Oflice during the prosecution of said application.
The invention further consists in the several features hereinafter set forth and more particularly defined by claims at the conclusion hereof.
In the drawings Fig. 1 is a vertical sectional view through a stitchdown shoe provided with a counter embodying the invention, parts being broken away;
Fig. 2 is an elevation view of the counter;
Fig. 3 is a plan view of the counter;
Fig. at is a detail vertical sectional view through the rear portion of the shoe.
In the drawings the numeral .5 designates the counter generally. It may be of any suitable material, and generally is made of leather molded to the desired heel shape. It is provided on its side edges with inwardlycxtending flanges 6, while the rear portion of the counter is provided with an outwardly-extending flange which is here formed by a plurality of tabs 7.
One way of assembling the counter in a stitchdown shoe is shown in Fig. 1, wherein the numeral 8 designates the upper, 9 the lining, 10 an inner sole, 11 an outer. sole with the lift portion 12 at the heel seat, 13 the welt and 14 the stitching.
The flanges 6 are preferably disposed beneath the inner sole 10 and secured to the adjacent part of the outer sole, here shown as the lift portion 12, while the flange formed by the tabs 7 is brought down flat against the heel seat portion of theouter sole and secured with the out-turned portion 15 of the upper and with the welt 13 to the outer sole by the stitching 14:. Thus the rear portion of the counter is firmly anchored to the outer sole and strains incident to the flexing of the shoe, in walking, are prevented from pulling or loosening the connection of the counter with the adjacent parts of the shoe. Staples also be used to secure the out-turned edge of the upper, the counter and flange, if desired, in a manner well known to this art. As the invention herein relates to the counter alone and one arrangement for its use in stitchdown shoes has been particularly shown and described in the aforementioned application, a further description and showing thereof is deemed unnecessary.
I desire it to be understood that this invention is not to be limited to any particular form or arrangement of parts except in so far as such limitations are specified in the claims.
What I claim as my invention is:
l. A counter for stitchdown shoes having inwardly-extending side flanges and an outwardly-extending rear flange.
2. A counter for stitchdown shoes having inwardly-extending side flanges and a plurality of tabs forming an outwardly-extending rear flange.
In testimony whereof, I affix my signa-' ture.
