Aiiomeys Patented Nov. 9, 1937 UNITED STATES PATENT OFF-ICE 3 Claims.

My invention relates generally to shoe making and repairing apparatus, and particularly to a stand for use in gluing and cementing soles, in the repair and replacement of shoe soles, and an important object of my invention is to provide an arrangement of this character which is especially adapted to the work, and which enables rapid and efficient repairing.

Other important objects of my invention will be apparent from a reading of the following description taken in connection with the drawings, wherein for purposes of illustration I have shown a preferred embodiment of my invention.

In the drawings:-

Figure 1 is a general side elevational view of the embodiment.

Figure 2 is an elevational view of Figure 1 looking from left to right.

Figure 3 is a longitudinal vertical sectional view taken through Figure 1.

Figure 4 is a transverse vertical sectional view taken through Figure 3 approximately on the line 4-4 and looking toward the right in the direction of the arrows.

Figure 6 is a horizontal sectional view taken through Figure 3 approximately on the line 6-45 and looking downwardly in the direction of the arrows.

Figure 7 is a bottom plan view of one of the replaceable lasts.

Referring in detail to the drawings, the numeral 5 generally designates a pedestal having a suitable foot or base 6 provided with an opening 1 to receive a bolt or screw for attaching the base to a supporting surface 8. The pedestal includes the column 9 and the generally triangular brace lfi extending from one side of the column. On and affixed to the top of the column and the top of the brace I0 is the generally rectangular elongated horizontally disposed body I! which has anelongated rectangular opening I2 in its top and extending only through one end of the body, the opposite end of the recess l2 being closed by the back wall l3.

Slidably resting in the recess I2 is a conformably shaped slide block which has at its front 2|, and this rod l9 extends upwardly through an be worked upon can be selected and placed in position simply by screwing its rod l9 into the threaded hole in the body H. The last is assembled in an up-side-down position as indicated in the drawings, with the shoe thereon, and the toe portion of the combined shoe and last is rested on the aperture 11, so that the shoe is then positioned to be worked upon for a repair or replacement of the sole. This arrangement is especially and particularly adapated to the operation of re-soling in which the sewed or nailed sole is first removed either in whole or in part, or left in place, and a composition sole then applied and cemented or glued in place. As this procedure is now carried on, the shoemaker must first apply cement or glue to the shoe and then put the shoe down, and then apply glue or cement to the sole, and then put this down, and subsequently bring both together, in a clumsy and inefiicient and hit-and-miss manner, resulting in a poor job, at the expense of much time and labor. Whereas, using the device of the invention, the shoe is constantly in place, and when the same has had the cement applied thereto and the sole is ready for application, the shoe stands in a steady and correct position and application of the sole thereto is a simple and easy operation. It will be obvious that the slot 22 permits the slide M to be moved to a position to accommodate different sizes of lasts.

Although I have shown and described herein a preferred embodiment of my invention, it is to be definitely understood that I do not desire to limit the application of the invention thereto, and any change or changes may be made in the materials and in the structure and arrangement of the parts, within the spirit of the invention and the scope of the subjoined claims.

What is claimed is:-

1. A shoe sole gluing stand comprising a base having a column rising therefrom, a block on the upper part of said column and formed with a longitudinal groove, a slide mounted in said groove and having a standard rising therefrom, said slide being formed with a slot, an inverted shoe last having a rod depending therefrom and through said slot, and means removably mounting said rod on said block with the 10 of lasts. e

3. A shOQ sole gluing stand comprising a support, an inverted shoe last supported above said support, a standard on whose upper end the toe part of said last is to rest during gluing operations, a base for said standard underlying the last, and means adjustably mounting said base on said support to accommodate different sizes of lasts, said means comprising a recess in the upper surface of the support within which the base is slidably positioned.
