Definitions

  • This invention relates to shoes provided with built in arch supports for correction or curative purposes; and it consists of a pack ing piece of leather or similar material of peculiar formation secured under the shank portion and heel of the shoe below the usual steel shank stiffener, as hereinafter fully described and claimed.
  • Fig. 1 is a side view of the lower part of a shoe constructed according to this invention, and showing the outsole and heel in section.
  • Fig. 2 is a plan view of the shoe, from below, with the out sole removed.
  • Fig. 3 is a cross-section through the packing piece, taken on the line 3-3 in Fig. 2.
  • Fig. 6 is a longitudinal section through a portion of the packing piece, taken on the line 6-6 in Fig. 2.
  • the out sole 7, the heel 8, and the upper 11 of the shoe are of any approved make, and the shoe has an insole 9, a welt 10, and
  • a steel shank stiffener 12 such as usually provided.
  • the steel shank stiffener 12 is secured centrally and directly to the insole in any suitable way, and the usual granular packing 14 is applied to the insole at its front portion, and along its outer side portion as far as the shank.
  • No granular packing is usually applied to the heel and shank portions of the shoe, or to a portion of its inner side portion under the part in line with the big toe, but may be if desirable. It is not usually advantageous to have granular packing material except at those parts of the shoe as shown, as it would make the shoe sole inconveniently thick and heavy for ordinary wear.
  • a packing piece 15 of leather is secured by cement or otherwise under those portions of the insole to which the granular packing 14 is not applied.
  • Leather is preferred, but other similar flexible material can be used.
  • This packing piece is shaped to conform to the insole at the heel and shank, and it has a pointed portion or tongue 16 at its front end in line with the big toe.
  • the upper side of the packing piece is substantially flatin its cross-sections where it bears on the insole and steel shank stiffener, but the packing piece is curved longitudinally to conform to those parts.
  • the underside of the packing piece 15 is beveled towards its edges and ends all around it from certain relative- 1927. Serial No. 195,349.
  • thick portions are an oval portion 18 at the middle of the tongue 16, an oval portion 19 in front of the heel, at the inner side portion thereof, and a curved ridge 20 which extends between the portions 18 and 19 parallel to the adjacent curved edge of the packing piece.
  • the location of these parts 18, 19 and 20. is indicated by dotted lines in Fig. 2, and the thick parts 18 and 19 form thickened extensions of the. ridge 20.
  • the portions 18 and 19 are of the same thickness, and the ridge 20 between them is not quite so thick.
  • the out sole 7 is secured to the welt and heel portion of the shoe in any approved way, under the packing piece and granular packing.
  • the spring shank stifl'ener is reinforced by the ridge 20 the middle part of which comes under it, and the thick portions 18 and 19 support the foot of the wearer at points which are desirable for corrective and curative purposes.
  • the edges of the packing piece is made flush with the adjacent granular packing so that the out sole has a good bearing.
  • An arch supporting shoe comprising an upper provided with a welt, an insole, a spring shank stiffener secured directly to the insole and arranged on the longitudinal center line of the shoe, a packing piece arranged under the shank stiffener and extending under the shank and heel portions of the insole for their full width and having a projecting tongue at one side arranged in line with the big toe portion of the shoe, said packing piece being beveled at each side and at its ends, granular packing under the remaining front portion of the insole, and an out sole secured to the welt under the said packing piece and granular packing.
  • An arch supporting shoe comprising an upper provided with a welt, an insole, a
