Description
J. AMICO SHOE PRESS July 31, 1934.
Filed July 15, 1931 IN VEN TZOR. 2 f/7/co I Patented July 31, 1934 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE Claims.
My invention relates to a new and useful improvement in a shoe press adapted for use in pressing a sole onto a shoe and retaining it in position until the cement or similar aflixing 5 means has set or dried.
It is an object of the present invention to provide in a shoe press of this class of means for quickly drying the cement or adhesive alfixing material so that the use of the press with each sole may be reduced to a minimum amount of time.
Another object of the invention is the provision in a shoe press of this class of means for heating the sole to dry the cement or afiixing material without injuring the leather or material from which the sole is made.
Another object of the invention is the provison of a shoe press which may be adjusted to various forms so as to press the sole against the shoe firmly throughout its entire area.
Another object of the invention is the provision in a shoe press of a ventilated pressing member sothat in the pressing operation the adhesive material may dry through the pores of the sole as well as at the edges thereof.
Another object of the invention is the provision in a shoe press of a ventilated shoe supporting member, so that in the pressing operation the adhesive material may dry through the pores of the material of which the shoe is composed, as well as through the edges of the junction of the 'sole and shoe, and through the sole.
Other objects will appear hereinafter.
The invention consists in the combination and arrangement of parts hereinafter described and claimed.
The invention will be best understood by a reference to the accompanying drawing which forms a part of this specification, and in which,
Fig. 1 is a central, vertical, sectional view of the invention, showing it applied.
Fig. 2 is a bottom plan viewof the invention.
Fig. 3 is a sectional view taken on line 3-3 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 4 is a sectional view taken on line 4-4 of Fig. 1, with a part broken away.
The invention is designed to press a sole on a "shoe 7 which is positioned on a suitable support 8 and a heel engaging member 9. The shoe support 8 is provided with perforations, grooves or vents 8' to serve as ventilators for ventilating the sole of the shoe 7 so as to perinitescape of the vapors as the adhesive material is drying.
The press consists of a trough shaped shell 10 projecting outwardly from one edge of which is an eyelet 11 which is adapted for slidably mount ing on a supporting standard 12. A set screw 13 serves to fix this trough shaped shell in position on the standard 12. Secured to each of the edges of the trough shaped shell is a plate 14 projecting inwardly from the inner surface of the shell and serving as a means of attachment for one end of the coil springs 15, the opposite ends of which are attached to a flexible woven presser member. This presser member is formed from strips 16 of resilient metal such as spring steel.
- It will be noted that these strips 16 are extended longitudinally and transversely and that the strips are spaced from each other to provide openings in a sort of net-work structure. These openings are provided for the purposes of ventilating the sole and permitting the drying of the adhesive affixing material. When the sole is ventilated in this manner as distinguished from a solid presser member, the drying may take'place through the pores of the leather sole, whereas were the presser member to be solid, the drying could take place only at the edges of the sole. This ventilated presser permits of a quick drying and affords a more durable bond. Consequently, the ventilation openings in the presser member cooperate with the ventilating openings in the shoe support.
As shown in Fig.. 1, the presser member is free of' the trough at the outer end thereof which is that portion engageable with the vamp of the shoe with which used.
Swingably mounted on the shell by means of studs 16 and 17 are yoke arms 18 and 19 projecting upwardly from which is the yoke tree or lever 20. Swingably mounted on the yoke tree or lever 20 is the latch dog 21 held by the spring 22 normally in engagement with the tooth segment 23 which is mounted on the outer surface of the. trough shaped shell 10. The lower end of the yoke arms 18 and 19 are fixedly connected to and preferably formed integral with the presser bars 24 and 25 which engage in the cut away portion or recess 26 formed in the forward end of the trough shaped shell 10. Secured to each of these presser bars 14 is a plate 2'7 which pro- Je'cts inwardly of the edge of the trough shaped shell and lies in alignmen'twith the corresponding plate 14, these plates 2'7 serving to provide attachment means for the forwardly positioned springs 15.
Projecting inwardly from the shell 10 at the rear end are bosses 28 and 29 which, together with the forwardly positioned boss 30, serves as a means for attaching by means of .the bolts 31, 32 and 33 an electric heating element 34 in po- 110 a terminal 35 which may be connected by the cables 36 to a suitable source of electrical energy. The construction is such that when the standard 12 is moved downwardly against the compression of the spring 37 by mechanism which is not shown, the presser member consisting of the woven strips of metal 16 will engage the sole and press the same against the shoe '7. By rocking the swingable yoke, the forward end of the presser member may be flexed to conform with the contour of the shoe so that the sole may be engaged throughout its area and firmly -the apparatus and making it possible to press a greater number of soles within a specified time.
While I have illustrated and described the preferred form of construction of my invention, I do not wish to limit myself to the precise details of structure shown, but desire to avail myself of such variations and modifications as may come within the scope of the appended claims. I
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters 1 Patent is:
l. A shoe press of the class described, comprising: a trough shaped supporting member, open at one of its ends; a presser member formed from flexible material and carried by said supporting member; means for flexing said supporting member; and a heating element mounted on sition, this heating element being provided with,
said trough shaped supporting member in spaced relation to and unconnected with said presser member.
2. A shoe press of the class described, comprising: a supporting member; a perforated presser member formed from flexible material and secured at its side edges to said supporting member; and rockable means engageable at opposite edges of said presser member adjacent one end and, upon rocking, effecting a flexing of said presser member.
3. A shoe press of the class described, comprising: a supporting member; a pressermember formed from flexible material and attached at opposite edges through a portion of its length to said supporting member; and rockable means carried by said supporting member and connected to opposite edges of said presser member adjacent its free end, and adapted upon rocking movement for flexing said end of said presser member.
4. A shoe pressof the class described, comprising: a trough shaped supporting member open throughout one of its ends; a flexible presser member secured at its opposite edges to the edges of said trough shaped supporting member; and a heating element mounted within said trough shaped member and spaced from said presser member.
5. A shoe press of the class described, comprising: a trough shaped supporting member, open throughout one of its ends; a flexible presser member secured at its opposite edges to the edges of said trough shaped supporting member; a heating element; and means for mounting said heating element within said trough shaped member in spaced relation to the walls thereof and in spaced relation to said presser.
