10 the operation of the vehicle.
A further object of the invention is to provide a novel construction of a foot cleaning pad adapted for securing the same in position immediately adjacent both the brake and clutch pedals.
A still further object is to provide a device of this character of simple and practical construction, which is neat and attractive in appearance, relatively inexpensive to manufacture and otherwise well adapted for the purposes for which the 21) same is intended.
Other objects and advantages reside in the details of construction as more fully hereinafter described and claimed, reference being had to the accompanying drawing forming part hereof, wherein like numerals refer to like parts throughout, and in which- Figure l is a fragmentary sectional view of the floor board of an automobile showing the foot pad in position thereon.
Figure 2 is a .top plan View of one form of pad provided With a retaining frame, and
Figure 3 is a similar view of a modified form of the invention. 7
Referring now to the drawing in detail, the numeral 5 designates a pad of any suitable ma terial, such asthe commonly known cocoa-mat, and of a suitable character adapted to remove dirt and moisture from the sole of a persons shoe when the same is wiped thereon.
At one edge of the mat is provided a pair of slotted openings 6 adapted to accommodate the brake or clutch pedal I of an automobile or other vehicle so that the pad may be positioned immediately under the foot-piece 8 of the pedal. The slots 6 are adapted to register with the openings 9 formed in the foot board 9' of the vehicle and through which the pedals work.
In the form of the invention illustrated in Figure 2 of the drawing, a substantially U-shaped frame is provided which conformably fits around three sides of the mat 5, the edge of the pad pro- 1939, SeriaLNo. 267,869
vided with the slots 6 being free or unprovided with the frame ID. The frame l0 may be anchored in any suitable manner to the foot.
board 9' and serves to secure the pad or mat in a fixed position with respect to thepedals.
Also in this form of the invention the pad may be sprinkled with sand or similar granulated material so that the shoe sole may pick up such particles when placed upon the pad and thus provide an anti-slipping agent when the foot is placed upon the pedal. The frame I!) will serve to prevent the scattering of the particles of granulated material over other portions of the foot board. l
In the form of the invention illustrated in Figure 3 the pad H is provided at its two lower corners with screws l2 for securing the same in position to the foot board 9', the other corners of the pad being free and the pad is prevented from slipping laterally with respect to the pedals I by reason of the engagement thereof in the notches 6. It is believed the details of construction and manner of use and advantages of the invention will be readily understood from the foregoing without further detailed explanation. I
Having thus described the invention, what I claim isl V l l 1,. In a shoe cleaning attachment for automobiles, a mat adapted for mounting on the foot board of the automobile adjacent the clutch and h brake pedals, said mat having notches extending inwardly from one edge portion to accommodate the said pedals and said pedals retaining the mat against transverse shifting movement.
2. In a shoe cleaning attachment for automobiles, a mat adapted for mounting onthe foot board of the automobile adjacent the clutch and brake pedals, said mat having notches extending inwardly from one edge portion to accommodate the said pedals and a frame enclosing the remaining edge portions of the mat.
3. In a shoe cleaning attachment for automobiles, a mat adapted for mounting on the foot board of the automobile adjacent the clutch and brake pedals, said mat having notches extending inwardly from one edge portion to accommodate the said pedals and a U-shaped frame conforming to the remaining edge portions of the mat and removably accommodating the mat.
