UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
WILLIAM A. SUTTON, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
SKATE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 239,120, dated. March 22, 1881.
Application filed December 20, 1880. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, WILLIAM A. SUTTON, of the city, county, and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Skates, of which the following is a specification.
The object of this invention is to improve the skates of that class which are attached by means of leather straps to the boots in such a manner that the connection of the runner with the sole-plate is made in a very reliable but cheap and simple manner, and that the expenseof this class of skates is considerably reduced.
The invention consists of the combination of the sole-plate with the runner by means of lockin g wedge pieces or keys,which are passed through the sole-plate and sprung in between the beveled faces of the arms or brackets of the runner, the upper ends of the brackets bein g notched at their exterior sides to form an intimate connection with the wood, while side lugs or guards of the keys prevent the lateral displacement of the bracket-arms.
In the acoompanyingdrawings, Figure 1 represents a sectional side elevation of my improved skate; Fig. 2, a top view of the same. Figs. 3, 4, and 5 are respectively a side view, a vertical transverse section, and a bottom view of the wedge-keys by which the connection of the sole-plate and runner is established; and Fig. 6 is a detailhorizontal section through the runner-bracket on line a: m, Fig. 1.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
A in the drawings represents the soleplate, which, in the cheaper kinds of skates, is made of wood, and attached by means of leather straps, in connection with projecting heel and sole pins, to the shoe or boot.
The runner B is provided with pairs of bracket-arms C at the front and rear part of the runner, which arms support the sole-plate by shoulders to a. The inner faces, b b, of the bracket-arms (3, above the shoulders a a, are in close proximity to each other and are beveled, as shown inFigs. l and 2.
The connection of the sole-plate A and runner B is established in a rigid and reliable manner by means of wedge-pieces D, which i are cast in one piece with the disks d, that holes of the sole-plateA and driven in between the adjacent beveled faces b of the bracket-arlnsC, so as to spring the same apart by the tapering shanks of the keys and cause the exterior notched faces of the upper ends of the bracket arms to adhere firmly to the wooden sole-plate A, as shown in Figs. 1 and 6. The tapering shanks of the wedge-keys D are provided at opposite sides with T-shaped guards e, which engage the sides of the upper ends of the bracket-arms 0, so as to prevent their lateral displacement in the sole-plate. The wedge-keys D form in this manner a reliable loek-connection of sole-plate and runner, which has the advantage that each partbnay be separately finished, and finally the parts assembled by the simple connection of soleplate, runner, and wedge-keys.
Having thus described myinvention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Pat- (3-l1t 1. As an improvement in skates, the combination of the sole-plate A and runner B, the latter having. pairs of bracket-arms G, with looking wedge keys D, which are passed through the sole-plate and sprungin between the adjacent faces of the bracket-arms, substantially as set forth.
2. As an improvement in skates, the combination of the sole'plate A and runner B, having sets of bracket-arms G,which are provided at their upper ends with inner beveled and outer notched faces, in combination Witlllock ing wedge-keys D, having top disks and side guards or projections, e, substantially as described.
3. In skates, a connecting wedge piece or key having a top plate, a flat tapering shank,
and T-shaped side guards or stantially as specified.
In testimony that 1 claim the foregoing as my invention I have signed my name, in pres ence of two witnesses, this 14th day of December, 1880.
projections, sub- WILLIAM A. SUTTON. Witnesses:
PAUL GoEPEL,
CARL KARP.
