Description
Feb. 5, 1952 D. s. vEArcH HOSIERY PROTECTING INSERT FOR SHOES Filed Feb. 10, 1950 ATTORNEY Patented Feb. 5, 1952 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 2,584,516 HOSIERY PROTECTING INSERT FOR SHOES Dale S. Veatch, San Francisco, Calif. Application February 10, 1950, Serial No. 143,373 1 claim. l(o1. sts-77) The present invention relates to hosiery protecting inserts for shoes and is concerned more particularly with the provision of inserts for installation in a shoe between the shoe and the foot and hosiery thereon at the toe and/or at the heel Where wear normally occurs.
In accordance with the instant invention, a hosiery protecting insert is shaped to conform to the inner interior conguration'of the toe of a shoe, and the interior configuration of the heel of a shoe so that with these inserts installed in a shoe a substantially frictonless smooth surface is presented to the toe and/or the heel of the hosiery to substantially reduce wear.
The above and other objects of the invention are attained as illustrated in certain preferred embodiments of the invention as shown in the accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a shoe showing the toe and heel inserts installed in relation thereto, the shoe being indicated in phantom lines.
Figure 2'is a rear elevational view of the toe insert.
Figure 3 is a sectional view showing the insert in place in a shoe in its relation to the toes and hosiery of the wearer. Y
Figure 4 is-a plan view of the heel insert.
Figure 5 is a sectional view showing the heel I insert in place within the shoe in its relation to the heel and the hosiery of the wearer.
Referring to Figure 1, there is shown in schematic relation to a shoe I I the insert Il) comprising a sheet of suitable plastic material which is formed to the interior configuration of the toe of a shoe and is provided with a smooth interior surface. Preferably the material is of a flexible nature so that it can be made of a general toe shape and will conform to different toe configurations without undue distortion. Preferably the toe insert I is provided along its rearward arcuate edge with a strip of adhesive I2 which is permanently adhered to the insert I 0, and is provided with a protective fabric strip or tape I3. The strip I3 is peeled from the adhesive I2 when the insert is toA be placed within the shoe so that the insert is secured in place.
As seen in Figure 3, the recessed shape of the toe insert I0 is such that it completely shields the toe I and the toe portion I4 of the hosiery from direct contact with the toe .I6 of the shoe. Because of the smooth substantially frictionless surface of the interior of the insert, hosiery wear isreduced substantially. y
Referring to Figures 1, 4 and 5, the heel insert 2| is also formed of suitable sheet plastic material, and is shaped to the interior configuration of the shoe at the heel. The insert 2l has its lower edge 22 extending substantially down to the sole insert of the shoe and has its rear upper edge 23 vpositioned substantially in alignment with theupper edge 24 of the shoe upper at this point. The upper edge tapers gradually downwardly asv it extends forwardly to meet the lower edge 22. The insert ZI is also provided with a strip of adhesive 26, permanently secured thereto, which is covered with a fabric strip or tape 21 which can b e peeled therefrom for installation of the insert 2 I in the shoe.
It will be seen that with the heel insert 2l in place, as shown in Figure 5, for example, the friction of the hosiery I4 is with the smooth interior surface of the insert rather than with the conventional lining of the shoe.
In Figures l, 2 and 4, the strips I3 and 21 are shown partially peeled away from the cooperating adhesive although when sold as an article of commerce the strips cover the adhesive with a small end portion projecting beyond the adhesive for easy removal, as'seen at the left of Figure 2, for example, and at the bottom portion of Figure 4.
While I have shown and described certain preferred embodiments of the invention, it will be apparent that the invention is capable of both variation and modification from the form shown so that the scope thereof should be limited only by the scope of the claim appended hereto.
I claim:
A hosiery protecting insert for a shoe comprising amember formed of sheet plastic material` hesive strip.
