6 Claims.
This invention relates to pressing pads for shoes and is disclosed as embodied in a pressing pad for use in cement-attaching soles in the manufacture of compo shoes.
In the practice of cement-attaching soles to shoes a shoe and a cemented sole are placed on a pad and pressure is then applied to the shoe and the pad to insure proper contact between the shoe and sole until the cement has set. A ma- 10 chine for cement-attaching soles to shoes in this way is disclosed in an application of M. H. Ballard for United States Letters Patent, Serial No. 388,739, filed August 27, 1929, where the pressure pad is shown as loosely confined in a metallic box having an open top, and is formed of strong and flexible material, as for example, rubber, filled with liquid. The upper surface of the pad preferably has a contour which corresponds to a degree with the contour of the sole which it is to treat, in order better to insure proper distribution of pressure over the sole. For example, a pad designed particularly for womens shoes will have a depression at the ball portion, to make the pad fit the shank and forepart better; and a pad for childrens spring-heeled shoes will have a depression at the heel to accommodate a spring heel wedge on the sole, thereby enabling the rest of the sole to lie properly on the pad. On the 7 other hand, fiat-bottomed shoes require no such 3;) pronounced inequalities in the surfaces of the pads used with them.
Thus, in order to do the best work, it has been found advisable to keep on hand a variety of pads many of which are idle a part of the time.
t is an important object of the present invention to provide a pressing pad which shall be available for use on a variety of different sorts of shoes. I have therefore provided a pad having in its top or operative surface the contour charto acteristio of one type of shoe, and a cover member, preferably in the form of a filler piece, constructed to cover or to fill in a depression in such a contour in such manner that the upper surface of the cover or filler, together with the remainder so of the upper surface of the original pad, will have a contour characteristic of a second type of shoe.
Such cover or filler pieces, in actual use, have conveniently taken two forms, one to cover or occupy the ball portion depression used in treating womens shoes, and the other for similarly making uniform the surface at the heel end of a pad for childrens spring-heeled shoes. Thus such pads may be readily adapted for shoes of flatter bottomed types.
These and other features of the invention comprising certain combinations and arrangements of parts will be apparent from the following description of a preferred embodiment of the invention shown in the drawing, in which Fig. 1 is a perspective View of a heel portion and a forepart portion, respectively, of pads designed for childrens and womens shoes, respectively. These portions are so situated in the drawing as to suggest a complete pad; I
Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section on the line II-II of Fig. 1; and
Figs. 3 and 4 are transverse cross-sections on the lines III-III and IV-IV of Fig. 2.
The forepart pad portion 10, shown, is that characteristic of a pad for womens shoes. It has a deep depression 12 at the ball locality to accommodate the corresponding part of a womans shoe bottom. The depression 12 is shown as occupied by a cover 14 which acts as a filler, with its bottom surface fitting the surface of the depression 76 12, and its upper surface formed to blend satisfactorily with the uncovered upper surface 16, 18 of the pad 10. The member 14 is readily put into and taken out of place and transforms the pad 10 into a pad useful for pressing shoes with flatter 80 bottoms than those for which the pad 10 alone is designed.
The heel portion 20 is that of a pad for childrens shoes. Such pads will conveniently have a depression 22 arranged to accommodate a spring heel on the sole tobe treated. In case a fiatbottorned sole is to be attached to the shoe, a cover piece shown as a filler 24 is inserted in the depression 22 to level up the pad surface. Preferably the shank portion of such a pad is made somewhat high, as at 28, to insure firm pressure at the shank of the shoe. Inasmuch as the piece 24 is rather small, it may be reinforced with a plate of metal or other suitable material, as at 26, to keep it from curling.
While Figs. 1 and 2 have been described as showing the front end of a womens pad and the rear end of a childrens pad, a single pad formed as shown in these figures would be useful for some kinds of Work. Such a pad as shown would be useful for some types of flat-bottomed shoes; with the filler 24 and without the filler 14 it would be useful for some types of womens shoes; and with the filler l4 and without the filler 24 it would be useful for some types of childrens shoes.
Having described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States is:
1. A pad for use in applying pressure to shoe bottoms having a depression in its operative pressing surface to accommodate a bulge on the bottom of the shoe to be treated, in combination with a cover member arranged to cover said depression and to form, with the remainder of the operative surface of the pad, a flatter operative surface shaped to conform approximately to the bottom of a shoe having a flatter contour than that of the first-mentioned shoe.
2. A pad for pressing together a sole and a shoe, having a depression in its operative pressing surface to accommodate a bulge on the sole to be treated, in combination with a filler. piece constructed to fill in the depression and to form,
with the remainder of the operativesurfaceof the 4. A pad for pressing soles, having a depression in its heellportion to accommodate a heel member on the sole to be treated, in combination with a filler member having its bottom surface shaped to fit and at least partially to fill the depression and its upper surface shaped to conform with the upper surface of the pad surrounding the depression.
5. A pad for pressing soles, having a depression in itsheel'portionto accommodate a spring heel edge on the sole to be treated, in combination with a filler member of substantial thickness at its central portion having its bottom surface shapedto fit the depression and its upper surface shaped to blend into the upper surface of the pad surrounding the depression.
6. Apad for pressing soles, having a depression in its ball portion to, accommodate the ball portion of a womans shoe, and a second depression in its heel portion to accommodate a heel member on the shoe to be treated, in combination with tvvov filler members of substantial thickness having their bottom surfaces shaped respectively to fit the depressions, andtheir upper surfaces shaped respectively to blend. into the upper surface of the pad surrounding the depressions;
