Description
June 17, 1930. F, SANSQNE 1,764,353
CUSHION HEEL Filed oct. 23. 192s Inventor 4' I "n I /Imrney I lso Patented Jamin, 1930 FFICE FRANKv SANSONE, F NEW ORLEANS, LOUISIANA CUSHION HEEL Application lcd October 28, 1,928. Serial No. 314,336.
Broadly, this invention relates to improvements in footwear and more particularly to a cushion heel for shoes, wherein the same providesmeans for the Aabsorption of even more shock than can be realized in the use of the ordinary rubherheel, said means also serving to more equally distribute wear over the tread surface of the heel so that the usual uneven edge portion wear of the heel will not be occasioned When'in use by even ersons in the habit of placing the tread sur ace of their heels unevenly while walking.
` An important object is to provide a heel of this character capable ofbeing manufactured by substantiall the same operations necessary in the pr uction of the conventional rubber heel now in the general use. Another object of importance resides in the provision of a cushion heel of integral construction, capable of being cheapl produced and'wherein the parts thereof )vi not easily bacome separated through lack of poor assem- Theseand other objects of the invention will become -a parent as the description of f the invention 1s better understood. v
In the drawings Figure 1 represents a bottom view of the improved heel.
ig. 2 is a top plan view of the heel.r f
Fig. 3 is^`a sectional view therethrou h, taken substantiall on the line 3 3 of ig. 1, looking in the 'rection of the arrow, and
l Fig. 4 1s a transverse sectional view of the heel taken substantially on the .line 4-4 of Fig. 1, and also looking in the direction of the arrow. e f
Referring to the .drawings whereirrlike numerals designate like parts, a block of resilient material 1 such as rubber, is of the usual heel shape, and /has embedded atit's other,
end, adjacent the tread surface thereof., a plurality of washersarranged at spaced i'n-` tervals adjacent the edge o the exterior. 4
A vertical opening 3 is formed in the block and is closed at its lower end by a tongue 4 projecting into the opening from the forward edge portion thereof. This tongue is toward he tongue 4 and its outer end bent to the edg'e portion of the the connecting web 5 are formed from the block 1 andare obviously of the same resilient material. Y
The tongue 4 is adapted to partially depend below the tread surface of the block l in substantially the manner shown in Fig. 3. The tongue 4is formed adjacent its thick end with a recess in which a suitable anti-slipping insert 6, is disposed therein. v
Thus, it will be seen that when the heel is in proper secured-,relationwitha shoe, the tongue -4 partially depends below the tread surface of the heel while the same is not being 'engaged with'the ground. IIn Walking, as the heel is brought to restonl the fground, the tongue 4 will first engage theground, and because of its resilient nature, suitable shock A will be absorbed-prior to the final resting of the tread surface of the heel upon the round.
The 1bulkiness of the tongue 4 will e com- 70 vpensated 4for by the opening 3,. so that the tread surface of the, t ngue 4 may become flush with the tread s rface of the block 1, when the'full weight of the person is'brought to bear on the heel. 75.
v Having thus describedlmy invention, what I claim as new is A cushion heel com rising a heel block off the usual shapeprov'idbd with a recess on its upper. face andthe-lower portion of the said i recess closed by a tongue-like memberiof substantiall rigid material united to the heel block at lts front edge portion and being flush with the lower surface of the heel block at this point, said tongue-like member having its 'rear/'f portion j normall disposed below tle lower surface of the eel block and having its edge portion united to the heel block by a relatively thin flexible web.
In testimony whereof I ax my signature. 90
