of the heel whichA comes in Contact with the ground. The wearer of shoes 'havingmutif lated, or worn out lifts isw subjected to injury j from slipping while Walking, to say nothing of the unsightly appearance shoes of this nature present. Then, too, great care must 15 be Ytaken to replace the worn lifts, because if such `replacement isy untimely the permanent portion of the heel will become damaged, necessitating the removal of theentire heel. In an effort to overcome the aboveand 20 other disadvantages incidental tothe usual heel lifts, our invention relates to an extreme.-
ly simple and highly effective devicefwhichI will permit' the ready removal of the wornV lift, and its replacement without the aid of any special tools, in the minimum amount'ofV time, and requiring no particular skill inl j Y i 1 1- spect` tothe stationary heel portion.,

A further object-ofthe `invention resides in devices of the character. described which maybe manufactured on a high production basis at a very reasonable cost and, either, built into the shoes, 0r which may be sold separately at low prices affording their general applicati onupon shoes of the usual construction. Other objects of this invention will herein- Y afterbe set forth, or will be apparent from the description and the drawing, lin which is illustrated an embodiment of the device for carrying out our invention. f
Y The invention, however, is not intended to be restricted to the particular construction and arrangement of parts, nor to particular applications of such construction, herein shown and described, nor to specific methodsof operation, nor to various details thereof,
as the same may be modified invarious parv ticulars or be applied in many varied relations without departing from the spirit and o scope of the invention, a practical embodii Figurel is a viewrpin'perspectiveillustratsnugly 'fit the anchor plate. 62. i This' plate, -f

The invention, inthe formor embodiment. shown in the drawing and-briefly described, lcomprises a stationary heel portion. ofthe usual structure, a removably. mounted lift, a reinforcing metallic plate associated therefd with andmeaiis forisecuring 'the lift with re-` In the embodiment of the-invention 'illusf trated inthedrawing Figs.V l yto 5, wehaver discloseda lift anditssecuring means `with 53 respect to the'stationaryheel-portion which may be readily applied to shoes of the ordil nary structure by merely drilling la-relativelysmall and shallow. opening into the heel y and pressing the assembled attachment in its S0. proper position. In this ,instance the bore 55 is formed .vertically into theheel-portion 56for the Vreception of asleeveor bushing 57.: Thesleeve 57, 'is` preferably formed int teg-rally `with a plate l58 .and'is further providedwithaslightly enlarged and roughened portion 59, which4 is adapted to firmlylgrip the lower portion of the bore 55, thereby re# tainingtit' init-s seated position. VThe lower portion of'thegheel may be' formed with a i depression' 57 `for the reception o-f'the plate 58,'as'clearly` shown in F ig. 2. The lift 60,V is provided withf'an inverted T-slot 61, the widened/portion of which being adapted to v Vadapted to rest upon the seat 67 ,1
' .the reception of a transverselyextendingpink 65 and is adapted to bear against the upper extremityiof the coil springA 66. This coil spring, it will be noted is freely movable within the bushing 57"andits lower end siotsfeefare A pair ofverticallyextendmg provided in the bushin-g? and are oppositely disposed for there'ceptionfof the ends ofthepiny 65, .for the 'purpose ,of not only guiding i this -vpin, but .for vpreventing its. displacement with respectthereto. ,l The/lowerv portion of each of these slotsis horizontally extended i fora' relatively short distance: and terminates in an upwardly extended end ,shown as at 69, for the purposeof'seating the pin-,65 within in Fig-,2. f e l When it isdesired yto remove the lift'6O, from its 'respectiveiheel' portion156, 'it is merely necessary tov exert a downward pull upon the lift-until the pin 65 reaches the botits withdrawn position as shown for example tom of -theslots vwhen itis but necessary to yturn the'lift ina counter-clockwise direction at which time, the ends of .the pin 65, will become seatedin lthe ends of'.l the slots 69. vThe worn lift may now be readily removed from its anchor plate 62, and a new one replaced.
- Bya slight downward pull of the/lift 60, and
a rotative movement in a clockwise direction,
the lift will be readily returned to its proper.- ly seated position. It may-be here stated that'the plate58, `is provided with a pairof downwardly extending prongst, Vfor the purpose'of pressing into'the yupper surface of the lift adjacent the Vslot 53,V thereby effectively preventing the separation of these Y portions of the lift 60, and at thev same time,
preventingv any lmovement thereof with respect to the heel 56; It will now be appreciated that when the'lift 60, is in its properly seated position,-the angularly bent rim or flange v63, will entirely obstruct .the passage f or opening 61, forthe purposefof preventing the entering of any foreign matter within either-the passageway 53, or the slit 61.
Many other changes could be effected in the particular Iapparatus designed, and in the methods-of operation set forth, and in the specific details thereof, without substantially departing from the invention hereof which lis intended .to be defined inthe accompanying claims, the specificr description above being merely for some' operative embodiments whereby lthe invention may be practiced.
