Application led May 15, 1930. Serial I'To. 452,713.
The invention aims to provide a novel and inexpensive, yet an efficient and desirable shoe heel embodying a vrotatable rear section or disk which may be turned to present 5. a new surface for wear after a portion of said section or disk has become worn by continual walking thereon.
With the foregoing in view, the invention resides in the novel subject matter hereinafter described and claimed, description being accomplished by reference to the accompanying drawings.
Fig. 1 is a bottom plan view of one form of heel constructed in accordance with the invention. y
Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional view on line 2--2 of Fig. 1. Y
Fig. 3 is an elevation of the rotatable sec-l tion or disk. Y
Fig. 4 is an elevation of the heel body. Fig. 5 is a bottom plan view showing a slightly different form of construction.
Fig. 6 is atop plan view of the structure shown in Fig. 5. Fig. 7 is a transverse sectional view on line 7--7 of Fig. 6. Y
In Figs. 1 to Il, the numeral 12 denotes a disk formed of rubber or other elastic material and adapted to be rotatably mounted upon a shoe. In front ofthe disk 12, isa flat elastic body 13 having total or partial 1 nailholes 14 through which to drive attaching nails. Body 13 is provided with a con cave edge 15 which contacts with the front 5 edge portion of disk 12, and near said edge 15, said body 13 is provided with a suitably shaped slot 16. The edge 15 is provided with an integral detent 17 opposite the slot 16, and
the disk 12 is provided with a plurality of Y circumferentially spaced formations, any of which may co-act with the detent 17 in holding the disk against accidental rotation. The elastic portion 18 betweenthe edge 15 and the slot 16, constitutes means for yieldably holding the detent 17 engaged with the abovenamed formations of the disk 12, and said.
i In the present showing, Vthe circumferentially spacedV formations above mentioned,
are formed byfopenings 2O of suitable shape" 55 near the peripheral edge of the disk 12 and spanned by webs21v `forming portions V,of u said peripheral edge. These webs are sufficiently resilient to inwardlyspring into `the 6U openings 20 and hence when the detent 18 is engaged with one of the webs and the latter is consequently sprung Vinto one of the openings 20 as seen at the left of Fig. 1, said disk 12 will be held against accidental rotation. However, by forwardly springing the portion 18 to release the detent 17 the disk 12 may be adjusted as desired.
In the construction herein illustrated, a flat piece of leather 22 or other appropriate material, is secured upon the upper surface of the body 13 and overlies the disk 12, the latter being rotatably connected with the member -22 by a tubular rivet 23, through which a screw or other fastener may be passedl when securingthe heel to the shoe.
In Figs. V 5. 6 and 7, the structural features denoted at 12a, 13, 14a, 152162 17a, 18a and 191':l correspond with the portions 12 to 19 above described. The detent 17 a however, is
notches 2Oa in the peripheral edge of the disk 12a. The disk 12EL is provided with a central opening 23a to receive an attaching fastener (wvhlich vwill also act to rotatably mount said The disk 12a and body`1341 are connected unitarily by two strips of canvas or other de- -sired material 24 vulcanized or cemented to their upper sides and preferably inset in the latter as illustrated more particularly in Fig. 7.y The strip of canvas or the like 24 provides thin webs which tie the parts 12a and 13a together at the top of their contiguous edges, in a single unitary structure for easy application but leave a dividing slit between said edges, and after such application, a knife, a razor blade or the like may be inserted in the slit between the front edge of the disk 12at and the rear edge of the body 13a and used to sever said webs, thereby allowing rotation of the disk 12a.
While excellent results may be obtained from the details disclosed and they are pref- 5 erably followed, it is to be understood that within the scope of the invention as claimed, numerous variations may be made.
Vhat is claimed is A shoe heel comprising a disk adapted to be rotatably mounted on a shoe, an elastic body in front of said disk adaptedlfor securin g to the shoe and having a concave rear edge abutting the front edge portion of said disk, said body being formed with a slot near said concave edge and being providedwith a projecting detent on said concave edge opposite said slot, said disk having circumferentially spaced formations any of which may co-act with said detent in holding the disk against accidental rotation, the portion of said body between said slot and said concave edge constituting resilient means for holding said detent yieldably engaged with any of said spaced formations.
