' series of depressions 7 in the concave face thereof as shown in Fig. 4 which formthe Patented Nov. 18, 1930 FRANK oHAPrnaAnD-wILLIAM memes 15mm; Micmem Application filed March 25, 19295 s' iia naemQwa This invention relates to boot hooks and the object of the invention is to provide a device by means of which rubbers, Oxfords, pumps or slippers may be put on the foot.
Another object of the invention is'to provide a boot hook by means of which rubbers or low shoes may be put on with the utmost. ease and simplicity without thenecessity of stooping. I
Another object of the invention is to provide a device of the character described in' which it is not necessary to handle the. footwear while being put on the foot. 3 p
A further object of the invention is to provide a device of the character described which may be easily'and cheaply manufactured and which is very eifective in use.
These objects and the several novel features of the invention are hereinafter more fully described and claimed and thepreferred form of construction by which these objects are attained is shown in the accompanying drawings in which Fig. 1 is a. rear elevation of a boot hook embodying our invention.
Fig. 2 is a side elevation thereof. 3 c Fig. 3 is a section taken on line 3-3 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 4 is a section taken on line 4.-.4 of
' Fig. 1. v I
view showing the use of the de- Fig. 5 is a wee.
The device comprises a sheet metal member provided with a portionl which is rolled to fit about the lower end of a Wooden handle 2 and is secured thereto by the rivets 3.. If
desired however, the handle 2 may be formed of sheet metal by rolling the metal so that the Y portion l is continued to provide the handle 2 with the seam at the back. Formed integrally with the portion 1 and extending from I one side of the handle 2 is a fiat angular portion 4 which is provided with a rib 5 for strength. Depending from theportion 4 is an arcuate portion 6 which is provided with a lugs 8 struck up from the rear or convex side of the portion 6. The handle 2 is provided with an extending'pointed end 9 at one side of the center of the handle as shown in Fig.2. I
While thisdevice is useful inputting on slippers, Oxfords, or pumps its greatest use is. in putting on'rubbersas it eliminates the necessity of handling the rubbers and is especially valuable whenthe rubbers-are dirty,
muddy or wet. To put on the rubbers the point 9/is engagedagainst the rear of the rubber and the rear 'of the rubber "is bent downwardlythereby to spread the opening of" the rubber and allow the toe of the shoe to be inserted in -the rubber. At this time the -portion6 is moved to position against the rea-r'of the rubber which'fits due to its arcuate form and the. heelis moved down the portion 4''to theportion a; which time by pushing down with the heel' of' the shoe the shoe'will readily move down'the portion 6 into-the rubber. As the heel is moved into the rubber the portion 6=is engaged'betweenthe heel of. the shoe and the rear of the rubber thus causing the lug 8 to grip the rubber sothat it 'may" be pulled onto the shoe bylifting the handle 2. On account of the thinness of the metal the portion 6 doesnott'ake 'up-much'room in' the rubber and maybe readily drawn out from between the rubber and the shoe after the rubber has been put on. It is to be understood that this device may also-be used in the same manner for PuttiI-1g -0I1 OXfOIdS, slippers or pumps.
The end- 9 "of thedevice may also be usedintaking off the rubbers by pressing down on the rearof therubber so that theshoemaybe drawn out ofthe rubber. I From the foregoingldescription it becomes evidentf thatthe device is very simple and efficient in operation, will not "easily get out of order, is composed of few parts and is of consequent low 'manufacturingcost, and-provides a devi'cewhich accomplishes the ob ects described.-2] l Havingits utility and'mode of operation, what we claim and'desire to secure'by Letters Patent of the United States ist 1. A; bootv hook comprising a sheet metal member, a handle provided with a pointed end at one side ofthe center, the sheetmetal memberbeing secured to the handle adjacent the pointed end andextending therefrom on hus fiilly described our invention,
the side op osite the pointed end, the sheet metal mem er terminating in a depending portion extending at'a slight angle to the longitudinal axis of the handle, the said depending portion being arcuate in cross section and being provided with a series of lugs on the convex surfacethereof. I v
2. A boot hook comprising a handle, a sheet metal member extending at an angle from one g side of the handle and having a depending end extending at a slight angle to the handle,
the said depending end being arcuate in cross section and being provided with means on the convex surface thereof for engaging theinner surface of the concave heel portion of a rubber or shoe.
3. A boot hook comprising a handle provided with apointed end, a sheet metal mem-. ber extending beyond said end from one side 5 of the handle adjacent the pointed end spaced from the pointed end to provide a V notch and 1 having a depending end extending ata slight angleto the axis of the handle, the said dependin end being. arcuate in cross section,
a 4. A oot hook comprising a handle, a sheet metalrmember extending at an angle from the lower end of the handle and having a depending' end'arcuate in cross section, and a series of lugs on the convex face of the'arcuate portion.
5. Aboot'hook comprising a handle, asheet metal member secured to the handle and having a depending end beyond the handle end arcuate in cross section, the convex surface ofthe said end being of a form adapted 86 to grip-the: inner surface of, the curved heel portion of a rubber-or shoe. 7
6. A boot hook comprising a handle, a sheet metal member connected with and extending beyond the end of the handle and'h'aving a d terminal arcuate portion approximately parallel with the handle and an augularly disposedportion providing a shoulder between the terminal arcuate portion and the angular portion to engage the upper edge of a rubber or other footwearto limit the extent to which vthe'terminal portion may be inserted therein 7 and positioning the handle rearwardly of the rear end thereof, said arcuate portion beingprovided with gripping portions to engage so the rubber or other article whereby as the foot is being inserted therein the operator, by pulling on the handle, may draw the-shoe or rubber to final position over the heel.
