fnniearniii's 'ovniasifio-E HEEL# pplcaton' 'led February My invention relates to the art of repairing overshoes and has for its object' to provide a method especially7 adapted to the' repairing of ladies overshoe heels Where the heel has become badlywvorn.l
More particularly` it is my object lto provide ay method by kWhiclitlie 'heel can v:be re" :paired 'so as to retain ithe saine size and contour both on the outside andv :insidefas the contour of the original heel, :i f Y 'A stillffurtiher object isv to, lprovide va .method by which the retaining of :the original contourf is assured 'in a simple ymanner 4which "does not .require extraordinaryskill f `upon -thepartlof the worlnnan.y
Anotherf object Aofthe linvention is to 'pi-o'- vide a repairheel for use in connection'with lthe method.of'inyninventioirA y f AlVith t-hese 'andzother objects invieiv, my invention consists inthe 'Constr'uction l arrangement vand combination of the various parts` of mydevice, whereby *.tlieobj-ects contemplated areY attained Aas#hereinafter;more fully set forth, 'pointed out inmy claims, and illustrated in the accompanyingdrawings, in -Whichz 'Fig. 1r is'a'side elevation of a-ladys o veishoe, 'the heel-being shown ivornto such an extent that ordinary Amethods of `repair will not suffice to replace it.

The lordinary overshoe repair heel, -now found in Vgeneral use, comprises a latfslab of rubber Ywith a .semi-cup shaped flapcof found satisfactory to acertain cxtentin repairing niens overshoes of.l which. the heel is compara-bly shallow and flat. The flat slab of.' rubber is cemented and nailed to the 'old heel which hassimply been roughen'edandcleanedtoreceive it and the 7,V i927. serial no. ise'yiee.
Hap is Acemented to the rear ysurface ofthe overshoe projecting upwardly from vthe ibase of the heeh i. .Y
I have attempted to use the saine 'method of repairing for ladies overshoes but find it very ineffective and unsatisfactory. to the-much smaller surface of the ladys li-eel, :its more rounded shape and the fact that Wearing is likely toremove the rubber at lt'hesrear corner of the heel Ito` a. vlevel beyo'nd the inner surface thereof, itis ver-y dif- -iicult ordinarily-to secure a Cwatertight joint vbetiveeiithe Y old, yheel and fthe.' :repair heel.
A great majority of A the ov-er'shoes of .which l the heels need/rep airing are lbrought to the repairinan in such -a vcondition as .that shown 'in 1 rof the drawings. ,.It will be :noted'there Cthat' the rear portion of the heel ,has been Worntosuch ain/:extent thata hole hasbeen v'Worn clear through the lieel,. as indicated at -10 in Fig. 2, the ihole,extending vabovethe inner surface ofthe heel indicated 'at 11. lIt is obvious that to attach-such a flat slab Eto thebottom of' such afhee'l would not only fbe impractical but would produce ajoint Whichv probably would not bev Wat-erltight'7 the height of -the heel 'Would be in.- vcreasedythey thickness o-ffthe slab Aand the appearance /of the'acoinpleted job, Would vbe farufrom satisfactory;r y
t Inprder to elimina-tethisobjectioniof inf creasingfth-e t-h-iclrnessl'thereorf. the first' step ofzmy Vprocess compris-es the. removal: offthe heel properwhich 'hasfbeen indicated by the reference character 12. vThe repair heel is .i
shown .at Fig. f7 land comprises a base 13a-nd a lia-p having kthe sides `14. the rear Wall v and the front wall 16 Vall formed'inte-gra-lly with the base 13. The upperedge loff-*the side Walls 111 and 15 are curved to conform with the bas-e line 17 of lthe:overs'hoe and this line -is cutaway las 4at V18 :to meet-the edge' of the front Wall 16 which yextends under the overshoe. `|The cupfshapediiange which is thus formed by the Walls 14,l 15 and. 16 is shaped to tit the-side Walls`19,the rear portion of the instep WallEZO and the VVrear portion o-f the lieel Wall Q1v of the overshvoe. .y
`the, original heelSuQh [asthe rolled edges 22. T he line :offcut is therefore 'fmade above ythese roflledvvecilges` as ,at 23, so asf to entirely' y knife.
remove them from the overshoe, the projecting point 24 being trimmed down with a The rolled edges 22 do not eXtend across the forward edge of the heel, there being, however, a definite division line between'the wall 20 and the heel proper 12 as at 25. I n removing the old heel, the cut is made d1- rectly at this divisionline and thence eX- i tended upwardly to bring it above the rolled edges 22. The robject in cutting the 'wall 20 at the division line 25 is to leave a means for gauging the proper position of the repair heel relative to the overshoe. An inspection of the drawings shows that the lower edge of the flap' thus remaining will contact with the inner surface of the heel base 13 so as to position said inner surface in exactly the saine position originally occupied by the heel portion 12. The walls 1G and 15` being inclined to each other, as indicated by the broken lines26 and 27, respectively, it will now be seen that theposition of the forward corner of the heel base 13 being accurately determined, the engagement of the rear wall 15 with the wall 21 of the overshoe will serve to properly position the remainder of the repair heel, even though the side walls 19 and rear wall 21'are cut away at a substantial distance above the base Vof the heel. h
4 While thus gauging first the position of the forward'corner ofthe repairV heel and. then allowing the heel to contact snuglywith the side and rear walls of the overshoe, the
, workman is assured of getting a'snug fit between all portions of the side walls of-both overshoe and repair heel and the cemented surfaces will readily adhere to each other. Perfect union is had between the cemented surfaces simplybecause they fit each other.
If there were no gauge to accurately adjust the relativepositions of heel and overshoe, it would be easy to apply thefheel slightly out of position and to stretch the contig-l 'with suiiicient cement to cause adhesion, ay
line of stitching is run, asindicated by the dotted line 28 inv Fig. 5. Another line of Vstitching closer tothe base-of the heel may be added if desired. Y vThe Vrepair heel having sides which flare `outwardly in 'all directions is an' improvement over the old type of 'repair'heel in that ,after-the heel has been attached, the strain' communicated between heel and body of the overshoe will be received in any direction by one of the side walls of the repair heel. The strain between heel and body vof the overshoe is ordinarily a pushing strain in which there is a tendency for the overshoe to wedge more tightlyinto they heel. Accompanyingl this, there is the usual side strain, or longitudinal strain caused by the shuffling of walking. The resultant of these two strains in anygdirection will always be opposed by the Contact of one'of theside walls of the repair heel against the bodyy of the overshoe and consequently it will be practically impossible to rip the heel loose in ordinary usage.
The heel being tion as the original heel, the repair will cause no discomfort to the wearer, the heightA of the foot from the ground will remain -the same and the appearance of the overshoe will be almost the saine as in the original shoe.V The upper edge ofthe flaps 14 being shaped to fit Athe line 17, the only point Aat which the union of` repair heel and overshoe will be apparent is along the vedges 18.

in exactly the saine posi- Some changes may be made inthe construction and arrangementv of the parts of my Vinvention without departing fromy the r-eal spirit and purpose of my invention, and it is my intention to cover by my claims, any modified forms of structure'or use of mechanical equivalents, which may bel reasonably included within their scope.
I claim as my invention: Y
1.A The art of repairing an overshoehaving a comparatively. deep heel including forward and rear walls inclined downwardly and toward each other and a heel proper including rolled side edges extending above the inner surface of the heel proper comprising the following steps: severing/'the forward wall ofthe heel at the division line Vbetween the heel proper and said forward lill) ward `and rear walls inclined downwardlyV and toward Veach other I and' a heel proper including rolled side edges extending above Y the inner surface of the heel proper coinkprising the following steps: severing "the forward wall of the heel at the division Vline between' the heel proper and Vsaid forward wall, thence cutting upwardlyY and rearwardly above the rolled `edges and thence applying a repair Yheel including inclinedV for- VWard Vand rear Walls joined by side Walls shaped to tit the exterior surface of the original heel and securing said repalr heel in place.
including the following stepszsevering the heel proper from the remainder of the heelA on a line above the rolled edges rthereof and applying a repair heel including a heel base and forward, rear and side Walls extending continuously therearound and shaped to fit the Walls of the original heel, thence cementing said repair heel to the Walls of the origi- Y nal heel in a position identical with that of the original heel and thence running a line of stitching to secure the side Wallsof the repair heel to the side Walls of the original heel.
