Description
March 29, 193& T. MARCUS MZZQ@ SHOE Filed Aug. 29, 1936 Patented Mar. 29, 1938 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE Tien Marcus, Holland,
Shoe Company,
Application August 29,
8 Claims.
The main objects of this invention are: First,v to provi-de an improved shoe characterized by reinforced arch construction.
Second, to provide a shoe which is proof against distortion due to the vertical load by means of a greatly stiffened and strengthened arch.
Third, to provide a shoe of the type described having a reinforcing saddle construction further strengthened by an appropriately conformed metal plate to laterally and vertically stiffen the arch.
Objects pertaining to details and economies of the invention will appear from the description to follow'. The invention is defined in the claims.
Apreferred embodiment of the invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawing, wherein:
Fig. 1 is a side elevational view of a shoe embodying my invention partially broken away and in vertical section. y ,Fig. 2 is a fragmentary longitudinal view partially broken away and in section on line 2-2 of Fig. 3. l
' Fig.,3 is an elevational view in transverse vertical section on line 3-,3 of Figs. 1 and 2.
This invention relates to'improvements on the shoe construction illustrated and described in my co-pending application, Serial No. 69,931, filed March 20, 1936, wherein a conformed leather saddle element is assembled with other shoe elements by means of a pluralityof wooden pegs driven through the 'saddle elements normally of the same." The improvements referred to are for the purpose of eliminating possibility of collapse or distortion of the shoe when abnormal stresses or conditions are imposed thereon.
Referring to the drawing, the reference numeral l generally indicates a shoe characterized by the improved arch construction of my invention, having an outer sole 2 and an upper 3. The outer sole is shown as being formed of two plies 4' and 4 or an outer sole and welt. However, a single ply or still more plies may be employed. An insole 5 is stitched or otherwise secured to the outer sole and upper in a conventional manner and a longitudinal reinforcing plate or filler 6 may be inserted between the edges of the upper as illustrated in Fig. 3.
I provide a leather reinforcing saddle construction l similar to that shown and described in the above identified application consisting of a portion 8 following the contour of the shank of the shoe and extending into the heel thereof. The saddle 1 has an upwardly curved portion 9 con- 55 formed to. the shape of the upper at the arch Holland, Mich.
Mich., assignor to Holland Serial No. 98,436
thereof on the inner side of the shoe. The saddle 1 is of a relatively stiff leather construction as described in my co-pending` application and is provided for the purpose of laterally and vertically reinforcing the arch of the shoe and providing a desirable arch support.
I have found that when subjected to excessive weights as when sons, the saddle 1 being worn by very heavy peris not always sufficient to maintain the exact shape of the shoe and give the desired larch support and resistance to distortion.
Similarly,
the'action of moisture from the feet of has caused the arch to become distorted under load to fail to perform its function.
Accordingly, to u defects, I provide correct the Y above mentioned a metal stiffening plate I0 corresponding in shape to the saddle 1 and inserted between the saddle is relatively small portion 8 lof the 'I and the insole 5. -The plate extending only partially across saddle and terminating short of the upwardly extending portion 9. However, the
dimensions of the `plate admit of alteration` as desired. So inserted and rigidly secured between the saddle and in soley by means to be hereinafter described, the plate l0 adequately supports the saddle` and hence the entire, arch of" the shoe,
and effectively vprevents collapse thereof under excessive load as well as due to a weakening of thesaddle by other agencies.
a plurality of unitingthe outer plate and saddle, I employ through the parts noted after appropriate holes have been punche punching means.
-d therethrough by awls or other As described in my co-pending application above referred to, the pegs Il are driven into the shoe structure in a direction normal to the outer surface of the outer sole and normal to the surfaces of the insole, plate and saddle, to the end that an angular relation of the pegs relative to one another is provided. Such an angular relation effects a keystone bridging action of the pegs and shoe parts which is highly effective in resisting vertical distortion. 'I'he pegs I l are preferably any suitable material,
are of such a size of wood but may be made of fibrous or otherwise, and or shape that they frictionally grip the outer sole, insole, plate and saddle tightly whereby their vented.'
As indicated in eration preceding sets the metal pl therein, whereby displacement therefrom is. pre- Figs. 2 and 3, the punching opthe insertion of the pegs upate at the perforated openings an additional gripping action those skilled in the art to adapt or embody myV improvements as may be desired.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is: Y
1. In a reinforced shoe, an outer sole and an upper stitched together, an insole having a relatively stiff leather saddle secured thereto, said saddle extending over the heel and shank and having an upwardly curved portion on one side thereof extending upwardly of the inner side of the upper, a metal stiffening plate conformed to the shape of said saddle inserted between said saddle and insole, and a plurality of parallel rows of wooden pegs on either side of the shank and extending longitudinally thereof, said pegs being driven through the outer sole, insole, plate and saddle in a direction normal to the surface of the outer sole, whereby said pegs are angularly disposed relative to one another to rigidly support the instep arch.
2. In a reinforced shoe, an outer sole and an upper stitched together, an insole having a relatively stiff leather saddle secured thereto, said saddle extending over the heel and shank and having an upwardly curved portion on one side thereof extending upwardly of the inner side of the upper, a metal stiifening plate conformed to the shape of said saddleinserted beneath said Y saddle, and a plurality of parallel rows of wooden pegs on either side of the shank and extending longitudinally thereof, said pegs being driven through the outer sole, insole, plate and saddle in a direction normal to the surface of the outer sole, whereby said pegs are angularly disposed relative to one another to rigidly support the instep arch.
