STOCKING PROTECTOR FOR SHOES.
Application filed November 16, 1925.
tors tor-shoes.
One of the objects of the invention is the provision of means to prevent material, relative movement oi? the stocking, covering a human foot, and the surrounding shoe, and especially the heel portion thereof to substantially eliminate wear induced by movement between the shoe and stocking.
Another object is to prevent the heel of the wearer of a shoe from lifting with respect to the shoe while walking.
Another object is to provide a device of this character which will. not materially diminish the useful longitudinal dimensions of the interior of the shoe.
A further object is to provide a lining about the, counter of ashes which presents a surface, in contact with the heel of a stocking, which has an unusually high friction coeilicient and which also presents a physical ob struction in the path of the heel or the foot to prevent it from moving vertically relative to the shoe. 7
Other objects, advantages and benefits of the invention will become apparent to persons skilled in the art from a consideration oi the following description and the drawings forming a part hereof, wherein Figure 1 shows a perspective view of the interior rear part of a shoe;
Fig. 2 is a plan view or the stocking protector near full size;
Fig. 3 shows a reduced plan view of two devices made of a single piece and subsequently divided along its longitudinal axis;
Fig. 4: is a side elevation showing the straightside of the device; and
Fig. 5 is a longitudinal section through the heel part of a shoe showing the protector in place in the shoe.
In all the views the same reference charactors indicate similar parts.
As shown on the drawings:
The device about to be described performs two important functions, to wit :it presents a thickened rim or rib portion which extends above and about the heel bone or oscalcis of the foot. This prevents the foot from litting out of the shoe, bootor slipper when walking and it also serves as means to prevent lateral shifting of the heel of the foot in the shoe. The surrounded, or inner and much thinner zone is roughened, or checkered, to increase its frictional engagement with the stocking or sock within the shoe,
This invention relates to stocking proteczone 10 contacts the sock Serial No. 69,256.
boot 0r slipper, also prevents relative movement thereof and consequent attendant wear.v
The device is made of a sheet of rubber, or other suitable substance having substantially the smile quality thereof, and consists of a very thin central zone 10 shown as checkered or roughened and which is intended for contact with the stocking or sock. Surrounding this central zone, a tapered rib or rim 11 is substantially parallel with the curved outer edge of the sheet'and extends thereabout. The tapered rib or rim l1 begins at the dotted line 12 and extends to the marginal edge of the sheet; its highest point or apex is at 13 where the smooth margin 14- meets the roughened portion 10. The smooth tapered part l4 facilitates, or at least does not materially mterpose any resistance to inserting the foot into the shoe and the lower roughened portron, below line 13 inter-poses considerable resistance to movement of the heel vertically with respect to the shoe. After the shoe is on the foot, the rib l1 obstructs the movement of the heel by physically in the path of the heel in its upward movement and the roughened part interposes frictional resistance by its contact with the sock. The entire checkered or roughened or stocking and prevents free relative movement thereof.
The device is to be cemented in the interior of the heel of a shoe 15 as shown in Figure 1.
The location of the rib 11 with respect to the heel of the wearer of the shoe is plainly shown in Figure 5. This rib also extends laterally and downwardly as shown in Figure 1, thereby preventing the heel from shifting latorally and more securely holding it against vertical movement, with respect to the shoe.
The device is initially made, as shown'in Figure 3, of oval form in plan. It is then divided on the longitudinal line 16, thus making two protectors. p
The notch 17 serves as a guide for properly locating the protector in the shoe.
The curvededge 18 is reduced in thickness to an extreme degree so that when cementedv to the inner surface oi. the shoe, there is practically no ridge left at 18 to cause the protector toscuri' up or become roughened at its edges by use. I
To remove the shoe it is only necessary to loosen the lacing and then move the foot slightly forward, whereupon the shoe may be removed as easily as it' the protector Was not present.
virtue of the fact that it is 2 V I V 1310,07?
I am aware that many changes may be made, and numerous details of construction may be varied through a wide range without departing from the principles of this inven- 5 tion and I therefore do not purpose limiting the patent grantedthereon, otherwise than necessitated by the prior art.=
That I claim is: V 1 V A stocking protector and heel retainer for 1 lining the heel. of a shoe comprising a sheet of rubber approximately semi-elliptical in shape, the sheet being tapered upwardly from the center of the straight edge thereof to form .a thickened rib having its apex parallel to and spaced from the curved edge of the sheet, and then gently tapered downwardly to form a feather edge.
' In testimony whereof I have hereunto subscribed my name.
