Description

Patented Dec. 3, 1946 COMPOUND TO IMPROVE THE DURABILITY OF LEATHER AND LEATHER SOLES Albert L. Fischer, New York. N. Y., assignor of fifty per cent to Bernard Winkels, Whitestone,
No Drawing. Application December 4, 1943, Serial No. 512,987
1 Claim. (Cl. 252-857) This invention relates to compound fo ma n leather more durable.
An object of this invention is to provide a com pound of the character described for increasing the durability of shoes even if the shoes are used on such destructive ground as sand or rocks.
Another object of this invention is to provide a compound which if applied to leather will make it Waterproof and which may be applied on the outside of the leather of shoes.
Still a further object of this invention is to provide a liquid compound of the character described which may be applied with a brush, sponge or piece of cloth freely in order to saturate surfaces of the leather to make it durable and prevent deterioration.
Other objects of my invention will hereinafter appear in the following specification and the novel features thereof will be particularly pointed out in the appended claim.
The improved compound embodying the invention comprises the following:
Raw linseed oil, castor oil or cottonseed oil, between 55% and 75%; petroleum distillate solvent, known under the trade name Varnolene, 20% to 40%; pine tar, 3% to 7%; and benzaldehyde, 2 to 3 ounces per gallon of the liquid compound.
The above ingredients are mixed together in any suitable vessel and form a liquid compound which may be applied by brush, sponge or a piece of cloth.
A good mixture can be made with the following proportions:
Raw linseed oil, castor oil or cottonseed oil, 65%; Varnolene, which is the trade-name for a commercial petroleum distillate solvent, 30%; pine tar, 5%; benzaldehyde 2 to 3 ounces per gallon. The benzaldehyde serves as a deodorant.
The improved compound is useful to preserve leather transmission driving belts. In such case the leather must be saturated completely with the liquid compound.
In general, any kind of leather Will be improved many times in its durability by full saturation with said compound.
New soles, if they are shellacked, must be worn a couple of days before using the compound, if desired however, the new soles can be sand papered with fine sand paper in order to remove the shellac or varnish and then they can be saturated with the compound.
The saturation must be repeated as often as possible, but once a week has been found suflicient.
It will thus be seen that I have provided a composition in which the several objects of this invention are achieved and which are adapted to meet the conditions of practical use.
As various possible embodiments might be made of the above invention, and as various changes might be made in the embodiment above set, forth, it is to be understood that all matter herein set forth, is to be interpreted as illustrative and not in a limiting sense.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent:
A compound for improving the durability of leather, comprising a mixture of raw linseed oil about sixty-five percent, petroleum distillate known as Varnolene, about thirty percent, and pine tar about 5 percent, combined with benzaldehyde in the proportion of two ounces of the latter to one gallon of the former mixture.
ALBERT L. FISCHER.
