HEEL-FORMING APPARATUS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 252,916, dated January 31, 18 t2.
Application filed October 6, 1881. (No model.)
have invented an Improvementin Heel-Forming Apparatus, of which the following description, in connection with the accompanying drawings, is a specification.
This invention has for its object the production of a set of tools by which a heel of the proper length, composed of lifts of different sizes, may be-readily cut and united by a nail,
after which the heel may be discharged, from the dies in which it was made.
Figure 1 represents, in vertical section,-the compound cutting-die for the heel-lifts; Fig. 2. a perspective view'of the external or larger cutting-die, detached; Fig. 3, a vertical sec tion of the inner and smaller cutting-die; Fig. 4, the nail-holder to contain the nail to be driven into the heel, and Fig. 5 a perspective view of a heel such as will be produced by the compound die.
The lifts composing the main or body parta of the heel (see Fig. 5) are cut from leather by means of the inner die, I), removably attached to-the plate 0 of the handle, stock, or spindle c by suitable screws, c The die is made long enough to insure a heel body of the maximum length .to be produced; but to produce heels with bodies of less lengthl have placed in the interior of the said die a movable gage, 0
which will be more or less thick, and in practice will preferably be of metal properly titted within the die. 7
The outer or larger die, (I, (shown in Fig. 1 and detached in Fig. 2,) is placed outside the die I), and secured thereto in any suitable manner, preferably by catches c, operated upon by springs f, as soon as the die I) has been filled with lifts, and then one or more larger lifts are cut out by'the larger or longer die (I, sufficient to produce the larger part g of the .heel, as in Fig. 5. In this way it will be understood that the compound die contains a series of superimposed lifts of difi'ercnt sizes, those at bottom being the largest. In order to nail these lifts together before they are discharged from the compound die, I have provided the simple contrivance shown in Fig. 4, in which it represents a stationary uprightor post, which, by its foot 7L2, will be properly secured to a bench or the floor. A spiral spring, 2', placed about this post, is made to sustain a sleeve, It, having its upper end perforated for the reception of anail, l, as in Fig. 4, the said nail being supported at its large end by a driver, at, secured to the end of the upright IL.
With the parts as in Fig. 4, and the compound die filled with heel-lifts, it is only necessary to throw orjam the heel material in the dies down upon the end of the sleeve and nail therein, and as the sleeve yields the heel-lifts will be forced 0r driven onto the said nail l, the latter passing through the pile. of heellifts, the pointof the nail emerging through the upper lift of the pile of lifts within the inner die, 7), and being clinched upon the metallie face of gage b". To discharge the heel so made from the cutting-d es, I have provided the head or plate 0 with one or more holes, n, to receive a rod, which, acting on the gage,'removes it from the die I), the gage acting to crowd out the heel.
If desiret'h'I might make the handle 0 hollow, as in Fig. 1.
I claim 1. The iuner die, b, having the handle of and lifts of different siz -s, substantially as described.
2. The inner die, I), and external die, d,'combined with catches to hold the two dies together, substantially as described.
3. The nail-holder composed of the post, the driver at, and the surrounding spring-supported sleeve, provided with a lioteto receive and steady the nail, the end of which is supported by or made to rest on the driver, combined with the inner die, I), and the outer die, d, and means to hold the two dies together, and a handle common to both dies to jam the lifts held within the dies by friction down upon the nail set up in the sleeve, substantially as described. v
In testimony \vhereofi have signed my name to this specification in the presence ot'tw'o subscribing witnesses.
