" BOOT-STRAP.
i SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 239,470, datedllVIarch 29, 1881.
Application filed February 19, 1881. (Model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, LEWIS ELLIOTT, of New l Haven, in the county of New Haven and State of Connecticut, have invented a new Improvement in Boot-Straps; and I do hereby declare the following, when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, and the letters of reference marked thereon, to be a full, clear, and exact description of the same, and which ro said drawings constitute part of this specili- 1 5 manufacture.
This invention relates to an improvementin boot-straps, with special reference to indiarubber boots, the object being to make a strong and durable strap having the shape of a ring;` zo and the invention consists in the constructionas hereinafter described, and particularly recited inthe claim.
I rst take a piece of strong cord, A, Fig. 2, of the required length and cover the middle 2 5 or central portion of it with a thick coating of rubber or lcombination of rubber and fabric. This covering B (shown detached in Fig. 3) is placed around the cord in Fig. 5. The extent of this covering is such that 4when the two ex- 3o tremes are brought together, as in Fig. 6, they will form a ring-shape of sufficient size for the insertion of the nger in pulling on the boot. The ends of the cord project to a considerable extent beyond the extremes of the covering B,
and when the extremes of the covering are brought together, as in Fig. 6, the two strands A Al are interlaced, as by a knot, at the point where the two extremes of the covering come together, as seen in Fig. 6. A loop is next 4o formed, substantially as seen in Fig. 4, from prepared fabric and rubber, made strong at its center, C, and gradually expanding therefrom, but thinner .toward the ends. This piece is passed through the ring D and doubled over the interlaced part of the cords, as seen in Fig. l, the two ends of theloop brought together, one each side the two strands A Al ot the cord and so as to inclose those strands, as indicated in broken lines, Fig. l. This completes the strap. vIt is applied to the hoot in 5o the usual manner of applying straps, preferably so that the ring will stand above the top edge of theleg,the doubled ends E of theloop between the two thicknesses of which the leg is composed.
It will be understood that the'material or which the loop is composed is of such a nature, or prepared so that it will adhere to the parts of the leg, and so that the process of,l
vulcanization will make the attachment per- 6o manent. Rivets, however, may be applied, if desirable.
The strands vof the cord extending directly l downward between the ends of the loop adhere to the parts of the loop, so that in pulling upon the ring the strain is taken both by the central part, C, of the loop and the strands AA. This construction-makes the strap simple, cheap, and of a most desirablev character.
I claim- A i The herein-described bootstrap, consisting ot' a cord. covered a portion of its length, the covered portion bent into ring-shape, and the two strands of the cord united at the meeting ends of ,the covering, combined with a loop 75 over said meet-ing ends of the covering and union of the strands, said loop constructed for attachment to .the boot, substantially as described.
LEwrs ELLioTT.
