w. SMITH. DEVICE FOR FASTENING 0N BOOT STRAPS. No. 247,219. Patented Sept. 20,1881.
UNITED STATES PATENT OFF cn.
WILLIAM SMITH, OF EATON RAPIDS, MICHIGAN.
DEVICE FOR FASTENING ON BOOT-STRAPS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 247,219, dated September 20, 1881.
Application filed March 10, 1881.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that 1, WILLIAM SMITH, a citizen of the United States, residing at Eaton Rapids, in the county of Eaton and State of Michigan, have invented a new and useful Device for Fastening on Boot-Straps, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to an improvement in the fastening on of the straps by which boots are drawn on, in which the straps are fastened on by a metallic fastener; and the objects of my improvement are, first, to provide a cheap, strong, and durable fastening; second, to afford facility in replacing new straps where the old ones have given out; and, third, to provide a substitutein the place of sewing on the straps with wax-end or thread, in which case it is easily worn out by the friction or contact with the leg or limb of the person, and in which case the wax-end or thread loses much of its tenacity and strength with age,0r after once being saturated with water or exposed to the weather.
Theaccompanying drawings show themeans through which I obtain these objects.
Figure 1 is a front view of the fastener as it appears on the outside of the boot-leg. Fig. 2 is an inside front view of the fastener as it appears on the inside of the bootleg. Fig. 3 represents the fastener in its original form A and B on the boot-leg before the flanges or ends are bent over, forming the fastening O, as in Fig. 1.
The fastener comprises two parts or pieces, the staple B and the clamping-washer A, both (No model.)
of which are constructed of a malleable inetallic substance, and are used or putupon the boot in the following manner: The boot-strap is arranged on the boot-leg in the usual and-ordinary way, after which two holes are punched through the boot-leg and boot-strap, attached, at a proper distance apart to let through the ends a 00 of the staple B, as shown in Fig. 3. Now, I take the clamping-washer A, and,pressing down, firmly fit it on the ends was of B, which pass through the hole i 11 of A, as shown in Fig. 3, and which, together with the flanges y y, project outward. I now bend the ends 00 ain toward each other, which are short enough so as not to meet, striking down closely with the hammer. Then I bend in the flanges y y snugly, whichjnst meetbutdo notlap,as shown in Fig. 1, thereby preventing the prongs 00 w from straightening out by hard pulling, and at the same time protecting them from any outside obstruction that might happen to come in contact with and break, straighten, or dislocate them.
What I claim as myinvention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
A boot-strap fastener consisting of the staple B and the clamping-washer A, provided with side flanges and end slots adapted to receive and fold over the ends of the staple, all as shown and described.
WILLIAM SMITH.
