'4 Claims. (01. 36- 9) This invention relates to improvements in being to provide a strong fabric. This unit comshoes and method of making.
The mainobjects of this invention are: a a First, toprovide a shoe which isat least formed of materials other than rubber'or leather which may be. very economically produced and at the same'timeis strong and inappearance. 1 a Second, to provide a shOe embodyingthese ad'- vantages which may be readily formedby oper'a.-. tors accustomed to use existing machinery" with a minimum of training and effort; 3
Third, to provide an integralshoe element or element for use in the manufacture of shoes com-. prising a sole portion and an upper .or vamp portion as an integral structure.
Objects relating to details and economies of the invention will appear from the description to follow. The invention is defined and'pointed outintheclaims."
A preferred embodiment-of the invention, is illustrated in the accompanying drawings; in w ich: a
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of. a shoelembodying the featuresof my invention; 3-
2 isan enlarged view in fragmentary vertical section on line 22 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is an enlarged fragmentary view partially in vertical section at the toe of the shoe.
Fig. 4 is an enlarged fragmentary section on line 44 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 5 is an inverted view of the shoe element or unit showing the shoe element prior to folding the edge portions of the fabric blank upwardly to form the upper.
Fig. 6 is a plan view of the top portion of the vamp or upper which, in the embodiment illustrated, is formed as a separate piece.
Fig. 7 is an enlarged fragmentary sectional view of the shoe element showing the relation of a heading strip arranged to provide the appearance of a welt.
Fig. 8 is an enlarged fragmentary view of the durable and attractive woven fabric constituting the foundation and.
main body portion of the shoe element.
In the embodiment illustrated, I represents the sole, 2 the upper or main or body portion of the vamp, and 3 a complementary top vamp portion, and 4 the heel. Y r
The characteristic feature of my invention is the forming of a shoe element designated generally by the numeral 5, in Fig. 5, which is formed of a piece of fabric shown at B, Fig. 8, this fabric being a woven fabric made up of multi-thread cords of substantial diameter-that is,- the object prises a sole foundation portion 1, a shank portion 8, and a heel portions which portions are.
surrounded by the border portion [0. This border portion is patterned so that it may be conformed into the upper 2. i
shaped or- In the prferredembodi-menthap strands I l are-looped into the sole, shank and heel founda-v tion portion to provide tufts ll of substantial depth. xThese tufts are closely set-that is, they are setso as to be in mutually laterallysu'pportv drawings.
ing relation to each other as is illustrated in the Iwpreferably stitch a beading strip l3 around thesole foundation portion to provide a welt: like appearance at the point where, the. upper portion joins the sole portion. This is particularlydesirable when the upper portion is turned upwardly at an angle to the sole portion in forming the shoe. This is clearly shown in the draw- In the manufacture of th shoe,- a layer of plastic material 14 is applied to the uppensurface of the-foundation portion and this-serves the dous ble purpose of providinga suitable supporting surface for the insole l 5 andit also serves to bind the tufts-:Latexis, suitable. for the purpose but to the upper fabric as is indicated in the drawings at I 9, see Fig. 2.
The border portion I0 is notched at 20 andat 2| so that when the upper portion is conformed the .edges of thesenotches may be brought together the complete upper or vamp. Abinding 23 of overcast stitching is provided around the sides and heel portion of the upper.
A suitable counter is shown at 24.
By thus forming and arranging the parts, I provide a very satisfactory structure whichmay be formed entirely of materials other than leather. The shoe is strong, keeping its shape, and it is attractive in appearance and is not clumsy. By forming the sole and the main portion or upper in one piece, manufacture is not only facilitated but the finished shoe is very strong and there is no possibility of the sole loosening from the upper.
I have illustrated and described my improvements in an embodiment which I consider very practical. I have not attempted to illustrate various modifications and adaptations for shoes of different designs as it is believed that this dis! closure will enable those skilled in the art to embody and adapt my invention as may be desired. Having thus described my invention, what. I
claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
l. A shoe comprising a foundation fabric having integral sole, shank and heel portions surrounded by an integral upper: portion of substantial width extending beyond the edges of said sole, shank and heel portions to constitute sides of the shoe upper, tuft material looped into the sole and shank portions of said foundation in predetermined. sole and shank patterns to provide an outer sole tread wear surface for the sole portion and an outer shank portion, the heel: por tion of said foundation and said upper portion bein'g without tufting, a cord of fibrous material disposed below the foundation fabric at the edgesof the tufts in side supporting relation tothe outer tufts and stitched to the foundation, the tufts intermediate the outer tufts being closely arranged in side by side supporting relation to each other, and a platform arranged upon said sole, shank and heel portions with. its edges in determined sole and shank patterns to provide an outer sole tread wear surface for the sole portion and an outer shank portion, the heel portion of said foundation and said upper portion being without tufting, the tufts :being closely arranged in side by side supporting relation to each other, and a platform arranged upon said sole, shank and. heel portions with its edges in supporting engagement with said upper portion adjacent the juncture thereof with said sole, sham]: and heel foundation portions.
3. A shoe comprising a foundation fabric having integral sole, shank and heel portions surroundedby an integral upper portion of substantial width extending beyond the edges of said sole, shank and heel portions to constitute sides of the shoe upper, tuft material looped into the sole portion of said foundation in predetermined sole pattern to provide an outer sole tread-wear surface for the sole portion, a cord of fibrous material disposed below the foundation fabric at the edges of the tufts in side supporting relation to the outer tufts and stitched to the foundation, the tufts intermediate the outer tufts being closely arranged inside by side supporting relation to each other, ands. platform arranged upon said sole, shank and heel portions. with its edges in supporting engagement with said upper portion adjaoent the juncture thereof with said sole; shank and heel portions. T
4. A, shoe comprising a foundation fabric having integral sole, shank and 'heelporti'ons surrounded iby-an integral upper portion of substantialwidth extending beyond the edges of said sole, shank and heel portions to constitute sides of the shoe upper, tuft material looped into the sole portion of said foundation in predetermined sole pattern to provide an outer sole tread wear surface for the sole portion, the" tufts being closely arranged in side by side supporting relation to each other, and a platform arranged upon said sole, shank and heel portions with its edges in supporting engagement with said upperportion adjacent the juncture thereof with aid sole,
shank and heel foundation portions;
