s. JA GOBSON. Sole-Edge Burnisher for Boots and Shoes.
WITNESSES I INVENTOR:
UNITED STATES SAMUEL J AGOBSON OF ST. PETER, MINESOTA.
IMPROVEMENT IN SOLE-EDGEBURNISHERS FOR BOOTS AND SHOES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 222,052, dated November 25, 1879; application filed July 24, 1879.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, SAMUEL JACOBSON, of St. Peter, in the county of Nicollet and State of Minnesota, have invented a new and Improved Shoemakers Burnisher, of which the following is a specification.
The object of this invention is to provide an improved burnisher for shoemakers use, which may be adjusted according to the thickness of the shoe-sole, so that soles of different thicknesses can be burnished with one and the same tool.
It consists of an ordinary shoemakers burnisher, to the handle of which a spring is attached in such a manner that by means of a set-screw it can be made to cover more or less of the burnishing-surface, according to the thickness-of the sole. The part that burnishes the upper edge of the sole is provided with a small adjustable tongue.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure l is a longitudinal section of the tool. Fig. 2 is a front view. Fig. 3 is a rear View of the same.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
G is a shoe sole burnisher provided with a handle, A, of wood or some other suitablematerial. One side of the burnisher is provided with two ribs, H H, between which the tongue J is fastened. This tongue J burnishes the upper edge of the sole, and may be adjusted by means of the screw K, which passes through the slot L and into the body of the burnisher.
The ribs H H prevent any lateral movement of the tongue, and when the upper edge of the same is set flush with the upper edge of the ribs they also act as a burnishing-surtaee.
A spring, B, is attached to the handle A, as is shown in the drawings, or in some similar manner, and the upper end, 0, is bent over the bnrnishin g-surface, and is provided with a guiding-lug, D, on each side, as is shown. This spring is adjustable by means of a setscrew, E, which passes through the spring and takes in the body of the burnisher.
The tool is adjusted in the following manner: If a thick sole is to be burnished, the screw E is loosened, the spring will press outward, and the part 0 will not cover an y, or only a very small part, of the surface M. It a thin sole is to be burnished, the screw E is drawn up tight and the spring pressed inward, so that the part0 partially covers the surface, and only leaves a space corresponding to the thickness of the sole uncovered. In a similar manner the tongue J is adjusted according to the desired width of the burnish on the upper edge ofthe sole by slidingitup or down between the ribs H H, and securing it by means of the screw K.
Heretofore it was necessary to have several sizes of burnishing-irons, varying in size with the thickness of the soles; but the abovedescribed burnisher answers the purpose of all of them, and is cheaper and more convenient.
Having thus fully described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- 1. The combination of the burnisher G, of spring B, and of set-screw E as described.'
2. The combination of the burnisher G, of the ribs H H, of the slotted tongue J, and of the screw K, as described.
Y 3. The combination of the spring B, having the part 0 bent over the burnishing-surface and provided with the guiding-lugs D, with the burnisher G and set-screw E, as and for the purpose set forth.
. SAMUEL JAGOBSON. Witnesses:
Lnwrs Swanson, J. O. CLARK.
