Description
Sept. 14, 1937. M. H. GRINDE LADYS SHOE HEEL FASTENER Filed Aug. 10', 19:55
I Magma: Grincle Patented Sept. 14, 1937 UNITED STATES 1 Claim.
This invention relates to devices for securing the heel to a shoe, and especially the high heel commonly known by such names as the '5 heel.
The objects of my invention are to provide, first, a strong and firm union or bond between the wooden heel and the shoe; second, a means for connecting the heel to the arch support of such a shoe; third, a means for protecting the foot and hose of the wearer from excessive wear l on such securing means; and fourth, a connecting means which is cheap to make, easy to apply,
and effective in use.
A further object is to provide a device which may be used in shoes into which it was not originally built.
I attain these and other objects by the devices and arrangements illustrated in the accompanying drawing, in which Fig. l is'a side view of a ladys shoe, partly in section, with the parts dissociated in order I to reveal the construction; Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the combined arch support and heel fastener; Fig. 3 is a plan View of the inside plate of the heel fastener; Fig. 4 is a rear elevation of the combined arch support and heel fastener; and Fig. 5 is a section of the arch support, taken at the line 55 in Fig. 2.
Similar numerals of reference refer to similar parts throughout the several views. I It has long been a difficult problem to securely fasten a high heel to a ladys shoe without adding substantially to the bulk and destroying the neatness of the design of the shoe, with the result that the loss of a heel is a comparatively common occurrence. These shoes usually have a steel spring arch support incorporated into them.
Referring to the drawing, it will be seen that the spring arch support I, which isof the usual curved section (Fig. 5), is provided with a flattened portion 2 at its front end, said part 2 being provided with a suitable hole 3 adapted to permit a nail 4 to pass therethrough, and with a heel plate 5 at its rear end. The heel plate 5 is preferably formed integral with the arch support I and is dished downward slightly, as shown in Figs. 1 and' l. The heel plate 5 is provided with a plurality of nail holes 6, adapted to permit the nails I to pass therethrough to secure the plate 5 to the leather 8 of the shoe. This heel plate 5 is also provided with two downturned sharp-pointed prongs or lugs 9, adapted to be driven into the wooden heel Ill, and with a cen- French, Cuban, Spike, and Boulevard tral hole II, through which the securing screw I2 passes, as hereinafter described.
In some cases the heel plate 5 is made separate from the arch support I, extending for instance only to the line A-B in Fig. 2, such form being especially adapted for use in shoes into which my improved fastener was not originally built.
An inside plate I3 (Figs. 1 and 3) is provided with a central hole I4, corresponding in position with the central hole 1 I in the heel plate 5. The plate I3 is slightly dished downward to conform to the shape of the undersurface of the Wearers heel, and is also countersunk around the said hole I I. The hole I4 is adapted to permit the wood screw I2 to pass through it. The said wood screw I2 therefore passes through the inside plate I3, the leather 8 of the shoe, the heel plate 5, and into the Wood of the heel ID. The head of the screw I2 lies snugly in the countersunk part of the plate I3. The usual covering strips I5 of leather are, of course, also provided.
Assembly The arch support i is secured in place in the shoe by driving the nail 4 through the hole 3, and the nails I through the holes 5 of the heel plate 5. All these nails are suitably clinched on the inside of the shoe, in the usual manner. Then the heel II] is forced over the prongs 9 and is held in place thereby. Then the inside plate I 3 is placed in position in the shoe and the screw I2 is passed through the holes I4 and II and is screwed into the heel I0. This screw I2 therefore tightly draws the heel lil into position and clamps the shoe leather 8 and the heel plate 5 between the heel I0 and the inside plate I3, and firmly holds all the parts together; the prongs 9 keeping the heel In from twisting on the screw I2.
It is, of course, to be understood that many variations may be made in the details of construction of my improved heel fastener, without departing from the spirit of my invention as outlined in the appended claim. 5
Having described my invention, what I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is:
In a shoe having a sole and a heel, the combination of an inside metal plate having a small countersunk hole centrally positioned therein, and lying inside the shoe at the heel thereof; a spring arch-support secured to the outside of the shoe sole, in the arch thereof, and terminating in an integral widened portion at the heel, saidportion forming a heel plate and being secured upheel; and a, wood screw passing through the small registered holes in the inside plate and the heel plateand entering said wooden heel and drawing the heel up into tighticontact with said heel plate and clamping the sole between the inner plate and the heel plate.
