Description

June 6, 1933. A. M. BERGER sHoE LACE FASTENER Filed oct. 2o, 1952 ATTORNEY Patented `June 6, `1933 UNITED STATES AUGUSTA M. BERGER, F PALENVILLE, NEW YORK SHOE LACE FASTENER Application filed October 20, 1932. Serial No. 638,693.
This invention relates to a shoe lace fastener.
Although laced shoes are more comfortable than button shoes their appearance is often not as neat due to the loose lace ends and if the knot is not tied very tightly the loose ends become unfastened with the danger of stepping thereon in addition to the `unsightly appearance. Various forms of fastening devices have been made but in general such devices are too bulky and cumbersome and must be afHXed by either a shoe maker, repairman or by the manufacturer.
One of the objects of this invention is to r provide a fastening device that may be affixed to the shoe by any individual.
A further object of the invention is to provide a shoe lace fastener that will be neat in appearance and one that will hold the loose ends of the bow knot from becoming untied.
Referring to the drawing:
Figure l is a view in elevation of a device embodying the principles of my invention showing the same aflixed to a shoe.
Figure 2 is an enlarged front view of my invention.
Figure 3 is an enlarged rear view of my invention.
Figure 4 is an enlarged sectional view of Figure l along line 4, 4, looking in the direction of the arrows.
In carrying out my invention I propose toV ,Y spring wire or other elastic material and is adapted to slip over the end of the curved shank 2. The bottom of the` curve of the shank of course is filled by the leather of the shoe B forming the` backing against which the laces are held. This device is readily applied to a shoe by piercing near the top of the upper adjacent the top eyelet, two holes. The curved shank 2 is threaded through the holes so that the end protrudes. is threaded and is adapted to receive a knob 5. This knob 5 has a twofold purpose. It prevents the slipping olf `of the elastic loop 4 and also prevents the ripping of the stock- Theend of thecurved shank 2 ings in the case of crossing of the feet. The knob 5 may be made integral if desired with 60 curved shank 2. The elastic and metallic body portion are preferably made in various colors so that there will be devices for brown shoes, black shoes, etc., in order that they will be inconspicuous.
What I claim is:
1. A shoe lace fastener comprising a body portion and a shank, a yielding member secured to said body portion, said shank adapted to be passed through a portion of the shoe upper whereby the end of theshank protrudes to permit said yielding member to be looped over the loose ends of the shoe lace and around the protruding end of the shank.
A shoe lace fastener comprising a body portion and av curved shank integral therewith, a looped yielding member secured to said vbody portion, the body portion and looped member adapted to be secured eX- teriorly of the shoe upper and the shank adapted to be passed through the shoe upper with its end protruding to permit said yield ing member to be looped over theloose ends of the shoe lace and around the protruding end of the shank.
3. A shoe lace fastener comprising a body portion and a shank, a yielding member se cured to said body portion, said shank adapted to be passedthrough a portion of the shoe upper whereby the end ofl the shank protrudes to permit said yielding member to be loopedvover the loose ends of the shoe lace and around the protruding end of the shank, and a knob on the protruding end of the shank.
Signed at New York in the county of New York and State of New York this 13th day of October A. D. 1932. Y
