Application illed September 8, 1928. Serial No. 804,307.
This invention relates to an improved shoe lift, constructed as a new article of manufacture for direct incorporation with a shoe under manufacture or produced forA inde- 5 endent sale as a complete article, and has or its primary object the construction of shoe lifts capable of quick application by types of shoe machines now on the market for applying leather lifts to Shoe uppers.
An object of the invention is the novel construction and design of the shoe lift proper and its companion wear plate whereby they may be assembled, and attached in a manner to produce a unitary article having..
nail receiving holes so positioned as to properly aline with a nailing machine when the lift is applied in place upon a'shoe. U
Another object lof the invention resides in the arrangementof an edge of the plate in abutting relation with a` wall of .the l1ft to provide an abutment for facilitating the 1nsertion of a single attaching element for fixing the plate in proper position upon the lift,
A feature of the invention is the novel manner of positioning and attaching the rivet to the plate and to the lift for accomplishing a neat connection and the proper positioning of the nail holes in thefplate with relation to the material of the'li t.
yWith these and other objectsfin view, the invention will be better understood from the following detailed description taken in c nnection with the accompanying drawing, wherein,-
Figure 1 is a fragmentary ortion of a shoe showing* my improved ift applied thereto. v
Figure 2 is a bottom plan v1ew,:
Figure 4 is a sectional view on line 4 4 of Figure 2.
Again referring tothe drawing illustrating one of the many Vconstructions of my 1nvention, the numeral 1 designates the lift in its entirety, preferably constructed from leather and provided in its under surface with a recess2, shown in thisparticular in- 50"stance of semi-circular formation so as to conform te the rear end portion of the heel and further to providea wall 3 that extends transversely of the lift. This recess which is of a predetermined depth and area is 'adapted to snugly receive a correspondingly shaped plate 4, preferably constructed of ymetal to increase its wearing qualities, and this vplate is adapted to have its ed e 5 arranged in abutting relation with t e wall 3 forproviding an abutment to facilitate the properl positioning of the plate and the fixing thereof to the lift, in a manner hereinafter described. Particular attention is called to the fact that the thickness of the plate is equal to the depth of the recess so that the exposed surface of the late will lie flush with the under surface o the lift to produce a heel structure of neat appearance. It will be noted that the plate is provided with a plurality of nail receiving holes 6 for directly receiving the usual nails utilized for securing a leather lift to the heel structure, and as it is of vital importance that these holes be properl' sitioned with relation to the material o tlii? lift, I provide a unique form of connection between th`e plate and the lift which will assure the proper positioning of the holes and at the same time form a vconnection between the plate and the lift for providing a unitary article for direct attachment to a shoe in the manufacture thereof or for independent sale for application to a shoe heel that has become. worn.
To accomplish this desired result, I provide an attached element` in the form of a rivet 7, the head 8 of which is countersunk in the plate, so that the same ma lie flush with the surface of the plate. is provided with a split shank 9, the members 10 of which are bent in op osite directions and forced into lflush relation with the top surface of the lift so as to not interfere with the-proper application of the lift to the heel structure.
Due to the abutting relation of the e ofv the plate and the wall of the lift an the novel Aarrangement 'of the rivet 7, the late is effectively secured to the lift and the clesproperly positioned to receive the'nailsjin the ap lication of the lift to the shoe stuc' ture.
Vus, it will be appreciated, matige, Plate forms a dual. functie@A @f me .dg
is rivet 7 the wearing qualities of the heel and proper- 1y positioning and guiding the insertion of the nails into the heel structure.
To take care of manufacturing requirements, it may be advisable to construct the lift of two parts, an upper section 11 and a lower section 12, the latter of a reduced length to coact with the under surface of the upper section to provide the recess for the reception of the plate as shown in Figure 3.
It is to be understood that with the plate arranged in neat abutting relation with the wall of the lift and the rivet effectively securing the plate to the lift, the latter may be manufactured complete in assembled formation for sale as a complete article or for application to a shoe in the manufacture thereof.
The design of the plate and the shoe lift may be changed in various ways and the plate secured to the lift in various other manners than illustrated, and therefore, I do not desire to be limited in protection in any manner whatsoever, except as set forth in the following claim.
What I claim is:
As a new article of manufacture, a combination shoe lift and heel plate, said lift consisting of two laminated layers of leather, one of which is cut away to form a recess, said heel plate consisting of a metallic plate arranged within said recess and filling the same, said metallic plate having a plurality of nail holes therein, and a rivet for attaching the plate to the lift for fixing the position of the nail holes relative to the lift.
In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand.
RICHARD EDGAR FREEMAN.
