CHURCHILL BOOTJACK 7 Filed April 13. 1931 2 Sheets-Sheet 2 Inventor fl d/ zarc 'hz ll f1 llo m ey Patented Mar. 15, 1932 eA'rENr OFFI E I ARNOLD J. CHURCHILL, OF J' UN CTION CITY, KANSAS Application filed April 13,
The present invention relates to a boot jack and has for its prime objectto provide one with a solid throat to insure strength, the throat being shaped to give a firm grip on the heel of the boot and also permits of an easy approach with the minimum height of rests.
A further important object of the invention resides in the provision of a boot jack of this nature which is exceedingly simple in its construction, inexpensive to manufacture, strong and durable, thoroughly efficient and reliable in use, foldable, and otherwise well adapted to the purpose for which it is designed.
With the above and numerous'other objects in View as will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides in certain novel features of construction, and in the combination and arrangement of parts as will be hereinafter more fully described and claimed.
In the drawings:
Figure l is a top plan View of a boot jack embodying the features of my invention.
Figure 2 is a similar view thereof with ribbed rubber covering sheets on the panel,
Figure 3 is a side elevation thereof.
Figure 4 is another side elevation thereof but showing the panels folded.
Figure 5 is a detail transverse section taken substantially on the line 5-5 of Figure 2, and
Figure 6 is a transverse section taken substantially on the line 66 of Figure 2.
Referring to the drawings in detail it will be seen that the numeral 5 denotes one panel and the numeral 6 the other panel; The panels are hingedly connected as at 7, the hinges being connected to the under surfaces of the adjacent end portions of the panel allowing the panels to be disposed in coplanar relationship as shown in Figure 3 or to allow the panels to be folded over against each other as is shown in Figure 4. Rests or legs 8 are fixed in notches 9 in the sides of the panel 6 to depend downwardly there from. The panel 6 in its end remote from the hinges 7 is formed with a throat 9 to grip on the heel of a boot. The inner edge portion of the throat is curved as is shown 1931;. Serial No; 529, 35}
in Figure 5 and has thereon a leather strip 10. 'l ransversely ribbed rubber sheets 11 are secured to the upper surfaces of the panels 5, and 6 so that the" foot'may be rested there--' on while the boot on the other foot is being pulled off; Y i
This boot jack is efficient because of the construction ofthe solid throat which insures strength, thethroat being shaped to give a firm grip on the heel of the boot and it also permits of an easy approach, with the minimum heights of rests or legs.
All folding boot jacks on the market at the present time, to my knowledge, have the hinged throat. The objection to this is weakness, the throat after being in use a short time spreads and allows the heel of the boot to pull through the throat, and other objections to the folding boot jacks now on the market is the approach through the throat, the rests are not of sufficient height to enter the heel of the boot properly. I believe that my jack structure overcomes all these bad features.
It is thought that the construction, utility, and operation of this device will now be quite apparent to those skilled in this art without a more detailed description thereof.
The present embodiment of the invention has been disclosed in considerable detail 0' merely for the purposes of exemplification since in actual practice it attains the features of advantage enumerated as desirable in the statement of the invention and the above description. 80
It will be apparent that changes in the details of construction, and in the combination and arrangement of parts may be resorted to without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention as hereinafter claimed or sacrificing any of its advantages.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new is:
1. A boot jack of the class described including a pair of panels, a hinge structure connecting the panels together, the hinge structure being secured to the bottom surfaces of adjacent end portions of the panels to permit the panels to be disposed in coplanar relationship to each. other or folded one on the "T1 other, legs attached to the sides of one panel to depend downwardly therefrom, said one panel being provided at its end remote from the hinge structure with a throat, the inner edge of the throat being curved and having a leather covering strip thereon, ribbed rubber coverings on top of the panels. p
2-. A boot jack comprising in combination a pair of hingedly connected panels, one of said panels at its free end provided with a throat, legs fixed to said one panel at opposite sides thereof and adapted to accommodate therebetween the other of said panels when the jack is in a folded position.
3. A boot jack comprising in combination a pair of hingedly connected panels, one of which is provided with a heel accommodating throat, said one panel having opposite edges thereof notches and supporting legs for the jack having end portions anchored within said notches, said legs adapted to accommodate therebetween the other of said panels when the jack is in a folded position.
In testimony whereof I afiix my signature.
ARNOLD J. CHURCHILL.
