Description
Sept 22, 1931- c. H. sTEMMoNs j 1,824,176
SOCK LINER Filed Aug. 12, 1929 Enmedio: 0725.
Patented Sept. 22, 1931 UNITED STATES CLARENCE H. STEMMONS, 0F KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI SOCK LINER Application led August 12, 1929. Serial No. 385,094.
This invention, relates to sock liners for shoes and the primary object is to produce, as a new article of manufacture, a sock liner provided on the inner edge of the arch portion with an arch supporting Wing which fits snugly against and conforms to the curvature of t e inner lower arch portion of the shoe to which it is applied without creasing or Wrinkling so as to aiord a reinforcement or filling' and thus act as an arch support.
Another object is to provide a sock liner with an arch supporting wing of the character mentioned, provided with an extension to underlie that portion of the liner upon which the metatarsus joint of the foot rests.
With these objects in View the invention consists in certain novel and useful features of construction and combinations of parts as hereinafter described and claimed; and in order that it may be fully understood, reference is to be had to the accompanying drawin s in which igure 1 is a plan view of a sock liner equipped with an arch support and a metatarsus oint pad embodying the invention, the figure picturing the pad in flat or shipping condition.
Figure 2 is a rear view ofthe device as depicted by Figure 1.
Figure 3 is a dotted side view of a shoe with a sock liner embodying the invention fitting the shoe in operative position.
Figure 4 is a cross section taken on the line lV-IV of Figure 3.
In the said drawings, l indicates a shoe of conventional type, and 2 a sock liner of size and form to fit the depicted shoe. Along the inner side of the arch of the sock liner is a wing 3 which follows the hollow side of the arch portion of the liner and projects laterally and upwardly therefrom to conform to the inner arch portion of the shoe for which it is designed tobe used so that it will fit the inner arch portion of the shoe snugly and without any wrinkles or creases and afford arch support for the foot. The wingT is elliptic in generahcontour and is permanently stitched as at 4 to the inner marginal portion of the arch of the liner. The arch portion is preferably of loop form as indicated by Figure 4 and is padded with moss hair or the like 5 so as to adapt itself to any peculiarity of the inner side of the arch portion of the foot so as to not only afford arch support for the latter but insure the comfortable fit of the shoe upon the foot.
It is also desirable to provide the liner with a pad for the metatarsus joint of the foot, and it is preferred to provide the wing at its front end, with an inwardly-projecting extension or neck 6 terminating at the point mentioned below the liner in a rounded head 7 which is stitched as at 8 to the bottom of the liner, a padding of moss hair or the like 9 being interposed between the head 7 and the bottom of the liner as a cushion for the metatarsus joint of the foot.
It. is known that arch supports have been fitted in shoes at the point indicated but these supports have either been made as a permanent part of the shoe or have been separate pieces set detachably in the shoe by the wearer, and devices of the latter type are liable to creepage or displacement and hence do not usually afford proper support at eXactly the 'point where support should be provided.
With my sock liner the wing being a permanent part of the liner, is incapable of displacement or creepage and in practice insures a most comfortable fit of the shoe and a posishoe by adhesives or the like though it may of course be so fastened if desired.
lt is obvious of course that manufacturers equipping their shoes with sock liners of this improved type will usually fasten the liners in shoes by adhesive as conventional practice.
From the above description it will be apparent that I have produced, as a new article of manufacturmaml as distinctfrom the regular insole oi' a shoe. an arch liner embodying the features of advantage set forth as Adesirable in the statement of the objects of the invention. and which may be modified in minor details of contour or size to meet lthe arch is very the conditions presented by diferent tfypes and sizes of shoes, as the curvature or orm of a sock liner for a. low heeled shoe must be cut to a different attern from a. shoe where igh and where the liner therefore must bow to a much greater extent in order to fit flatly upon the median portion of the insole of the shoe.
I claim:
As a new article of manufacture, a sock liner consisting of a singlethickness of flexible material and an arch support marginally underlying the inner edge o the liner from the heel portion to the sole portion thereof,
and of loop form in cross section beyond the t side of the liner, the loo portion being provided with moss hair fil ing.
In testimony whereof I aix my signature.
CLARENCE H. STEMMONS.
