SKATE.
No. 248,272. Patented Oct. 18,-1881.
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
EVERETT H. BARNEY, OF SPRINGFIELD, MASSACHUSETTS.
SKATE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 248,272 dated October 18, 1881, Applidation' filed March 25, 1881. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, EVERETT H; BARNEY, a citizen of the United States, residing at Springfield, county of Hampden, and State of Massachusetts, have invented new and useful Improvements in Skates, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to the details of the construction of locking and adjusting devices interposed between the sole and heel clamping mechanism of a skate, to cause the sole and heel clamps thereof to be properly operated, the object being to provide devices for the above-mentioned purpose which can be removed from and replaced upon the skate without the aid of any tools whatever, which are powerful to fasten the clamps, easy of adj ustview of the bottom of the skate, with the runnor in the rear of the sole-plate broken away and the parts under the heel-plate shown partly in section. Fig. 3 is a plan view of the soleclamps detached from the sole-plate. Fig. 4. is aview of the pivoted locking-levers detached from the skate, with the outer edge of its pivot shown in dotted lines. Fig. 5 is a longitudinal sectional view of the heel'clamp and of the rear end of the screwed clamp-rod; Fig. 6 is an isometric view of one of the sole-clamps. Fig. 7 is a vertical section of the clamp and lever-pivot. Fig. 8 is a vertical section of the clamp-rod nut and rear locking-lever pivot.
In the drawings, A is the sole-plate, and B the heel-plate. cis the runner. d d are the sole-clamps. c is the heel-clamp. f is the screwed clamp-rod. h t are the pivoted lockin g-levers. n is the clamp and lever pivot, and
o is the clamp-rod nut and rear locking-lever pivot. s is a stud set in the heel-clamp 0.
Like letters refer to like parts in the several figures.
The construction of the sole-plate and soleclamps and the means for securing the latter to said sole-plate by studs having elongated heads, as shown herein, are substantially the same as those shown in my patent of May 2, 1876, to which reference may be had; and the construction of the heel-plate-supportin ghrackets shown herein, whereby they spread under said plate and form a longitudinal chamber thereunder for the reception of the hollow shank of the heel-clamp, is also substantially like that shown in said patent.
The heel-clamp e is constructed with alongitudinal shank, c, which fits into the said chamher under the heel-plate, and has two vertical clamp-dogs projecting upward on one end, which, when the heel-clamp is operated, are forced against the rear of the boot-heel. The said shank e is hollowed out tolet the clamprodfpass through it, as shown.
Projecting upward from the bottom of said shank e is a stud, s, which enters a groove, t, cut around that part of the clamp-rod which operates within said shank, so that when said rod is unscrewed and drawn back itcarries the heel-clamp back with it.
The ends of the sole-clamps d d, which meet in the rear of the sole-plate, are so formed as to overlap each other, and are perforated to receive the pivot 02, upon which they swing as the clamp-jaws move to and from the edge of the sole-plate. The said pivotn is perforated transversely to let the end of the clamp-rod f pass through it, as shown in Fig. 2. v
The lockinglever h is made in the form shown, having one end perforated to permit of passing the shank part of the clamp-rod nut through it, and. its opposite end is adapted to be hooked around the shank part of the pivot n, as shown.
Thelocking-lever i, provided with the thumbpiece 1 is pivoted upon the pivot a. as shown, and is also pivoted to the extremity of the hook end of lever h, so that when the end i of lever i is swung from the position shown in Fig.4. to that shown in Fig. 2, lever It becomes hooked around pivot n with lever i. Y
The screwed clamp-rod f is screwed throng the nut 0, upon which lever It has been placed, so that the latter is held thereon between said rod and the under side of said nut, and the smaller plain end of said rod is passed through the hole in the shank of the clamp and leverpivot, holding the hooked end of lever 13 between it and the under side of the head on said pivot, but leaving room, also, to hook the end of lever 71. around it, as aforesaid.
A ring, .00, is secured to the outer end of said rodf, by means of which it may be conveniently turned in its nut o, to operate to adjust the sole and heel clamps to different sizes of boots, as hereinafter set forth, and to act as a stop against heel-clamp e.
The operation of my improved skate-fastening devices is as follows: The end i of leveri is swung around toward the rear end of the sole-plate A, disen gagin g the book of lever h from the pivot- 00 and moving the latter and nut 0 farther apart. If the sole-clamps stand near the edge of the sole-plate and the heelclamp near the rear end of the heel-plate when lever 11 is swung around, asjust described, the effect thereof will be to move said clamps away from the said sole and heel plates, so as to permit of placing the heel and sole of a boot upon the skate and within the upstanding portions of said clamps. To move said upstanding portions of said clamps up against the edges of the boot-sole and against the rear of the heel, rodfis turned to screw it into nut o by taking hold of ring 00, and by so doing the heel-clamp is brought to a stand against the heel and nut 0 is drawn back, taking with it the pivot n, which slides on the smooth end of rod f, and so drawing upon the ends of the sole-clamps d, which are attached to said pivot, as to cause them to slide upon the studs which hold them to the sole-plate and force their upstanding portions up against the edges of the boot-sole. The skate-fastenings are now adjusted to that sized boot, so that the skate may be put onto it, and the fastening of it to the boot is completed by turning lever i back to the position shown in Fig. 1. This draws nut 0 and pivot 02 toward each other and forces the sole and heel clamps against the boot with great power, particularly at the period in the movement of the parts when the hookedend of lever h is about engaging with pivot it, upon which it is finally hooked, thus holding the said clamps rigidly against the boot and securing the skate firmly to the latter. It is only necessary to turn the end of leveri again toward the soleplate to take the skate off.
The skate-fastening devices herein shown and described are easily detached from the skate as follows, for the purpose of cleaning or repairing: The rod f is screwed back quite out of nut 0, and, with the heel-clamp a, may now be drawn quite out from under the heel-plate, entirely freeing them from the skate; Nut 0 and pivot "n are now taken off from levers h and 'i, and from the ends of the sole-clamps d, permitting the latter to be so turned upon the pivots which hold them up against the soleplate as to bring the long sides of theirheads in a line with the slots in the'said clamps, when the latter will drop away from the sole-plate. The parts are replaced in the same order.
Ifdesired, the fastening devices herein shown and described may be employed for securing the sole-plate only to the boot by discarding the particular heel-clamp herein shown and using some other heel-fastening in its stead, and in such a case allowing the ring a: on the end of rod f to abut against the ends of the heel-supportin g brackets when the levers h and i are operated, as above described, to draw the sole-clamps against the edges of the bootsole.
I do not claim, broadly, sliding toe and heel clamps and levers, whereby the same may be drawn together and locked or separated; but
I claiml. In combination with the screw clam p-rodf, a pivot, n, on said rod, joining the sole-clamps thereto, a nut, 0, thereon, jointed to a lever, h, and a lever, 11, pivoted to thelever h and turniug on the pivot a, substantially as set forth.
2. The heel-clamp e, provided with thelstud s, in combination with the clamp-rodf, having the annular groove t around it, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
EVERETT H. BARNEY.
