ARCH SUPPORT.
Application filed January 18, 1926. Serial No. 82,053.
This invention rel ates to a certain new and useful improvement in arch-supports.
My invention has for its chief object the provision of an efiicient arch-support of simple, inexpensive, and durable form and construction, which may be readily fitted in the shoe.
My invention has for another object the provision of an arch-support capable not only of height adjustment, but also comprising few parts adapted for relative lengthwise adjustment for conveniently meeting the supportin requirements of different insteps or metatorsi.
My invention has for a further object the provision of an arch-support equipped with an auxiliary pad that may be adjustably disposed as may be required ordesired under the ball or plantar surface of the foot.
And with the above and other objects in view, my invention resides in the novel features of form, construct-ion, arrangement, and combination of parts hereinafter described and pointed out in the claim.
In the accompanying drawing,
Figure 1 is an inverted plan view of an archsupport embodying my invention;
Figure 2 is a side elevational view, partly broken away and in section, of the arch-support; and
Figure 3 is a transverse sectional view of the support, taken approximately on the line 83, Figure 1, with the auxiliary pad thereof disposed as when not in use within the archcavity of the support.
Referring now more in detail and by reference characters to the drawing, which illustrates a preferred embodiment of my invention, A designates the upper or cover member of the support, which comprises a section of suitable somewhat flexible cushion material, such. as leather, contoured to convenienty fit within a. shoe at the shank and heel thereo f and bodily shaped to arcuately incline upwardly and transversely from its outer to its inner margin and otherwise both longitudinally and laterally blocked, as at 1, to normally conform approximately to the arch or instep of the human foot.
B designates the under or base member of the support, which comprises a section of suit ably stiif or rigid material, such as metal, of reduced length and breadth relatively to the section A, but correspondingly permanently 'shaped both longitudinally and laterally, as
at 2, to likewise approximately conform to and provide a support for the arch or instep of the human foot.
Provided lengthwise in member B adjacent its outer margin and near the heel-end thereof, is a series of suitably spaced tapped openings 3, adapted for selective threaded engagement with which is a screw-member or the like a seated in member A for separably securing the members A and Bin co-operative arch-supporting relation with member disposed under the member A and with the arched or so called arcuated portions 1 and 2 thereof in approximately registering relation and whereby also the members A and B may be so secured in lengthwise adjusted relation the one to the other within the limits of the series of openings 3 to accommodate or meet the supporting requirements of different arches.
Threaded or otherwise adjustably connected to member B adjacent the heel end thereof, is a headed-member or so-called pad G for selectively varying or adjusting the height of the so connected members A and B from the inside of the shoe to also meet the requirements of different arches.
D indicates a second or auxiliary pad which is connected pivotally, as at 5, with one end of a link 6 pivotally connected at its other end, as at 7, to one end of a second link 8, which, in turn, at its other end is pivotally connected, as at 9, to the member B adjacent its inner margin and within the cavity of the arcuated portion 2 thereof, as best seen in Figure 1. This pad D is thus capable approximately of universal swingable adjustment relatively to the members A and B for disposition as may be required under the ball or plantar surface of the foot along a line, as at 10, for selectively giving or aflt'ording support taereto, the pad D, when not so in use, being swung under the member B to reside within the cavity of its arched portion 2, as shown in full lines in Figure 3 and in dotted lines in Figure 1.
My new arch surface may be cheaply and economically manufactured and is exceedingly efficient in the performance of its intended functions.
I am aware that changes in the form, construction, arrangement, and combination of the several parts of the arch-support may be made and substituted for those herein shown and described without departing from the nature and principle of my invention.
Having thus described my invention, What I claim and desire to secure by Letters Petent is:
In an arch-support, a cushion cover-member contoured to fit Within a shoe, a rigid base-member disposed under the cover memconform to and provide a support for the arch of the human foot, said base member being provided lengtliwlse with a series of spaced threaded openings, and a threaded member seated in the cover-member and adapted for 15 In testimony whereof I have hereunto affixed my signature.
