MANUFACTURE OF IMPRESSION-STITCH SOLES FOR BOOTS AN D SHOES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 268,421, dated December 5, 1882.
Application filed September 23, 1882.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, LYSANDER 0. MAKE- PEACE, of the city and county of Worcester, of the State of Massachusetts, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Impression- Stitch Soles and in the Process of Manufacturing the Same for Boots and Shoes; and I do hereby declare the same to be described in the following specification and represented in the accompanying drawings, of which Figure 1 is a top view, Fig. 2 an edge elevation, and Fig. 3 a transverse section, of a sole embodying my invention, the nature of which is defined in the claims hereinafter presented. Fig. 4 is a transverse section of the sole-blank as bent down near its edges preparatory to having a portion of the part bent down removed in order to bring the lower surface of the bent-down part flush with the lower surface or flesh side of the sole.
In making leather soles for being marked around the edge by what are termed by shoe makers impression-stitches, it, prior to the date of my invention, has been customary to .chamfer or bevel the sole upon its hairside where to be marked or impressed, part of the grain-surface being removed with the portion or strip of leather so taken from the sole. Soles so reduced frequently, if not always, present a rough surface or appearance in the part impressed.
The object of my invention is to preserve the grain-surface of the sole entire, in order that after it may have been impressed it shall present or have a better or smoother finish. By grain-surface is meant the side or surface from which the hair of the hide may have been removed, the opposite side of the sole being usually termed the flesh side or surface.
In carrying out my invention I bend down from its grain side-which is to be supposed to be its upper side-the sole-blank, near its edge and about its sides and toe, in manner as shown in Fig. 4., in which S is the sole-blank, and a b c d the portion bent down at each edge (No model.)
of the sole with respect to the contiguous portion a d d a. The lower side or surface, b a a b, in Fig. 4 is the flesh side of the leather or sole. Next, or at the same time, or previously, I remove from the part so bent down a strip, 0, triangular or substantially triangular in transverse section, so as to bring the entire lower surface of the sole in-one plane, or the lower surface of the remainder of the part bent down flush with the contiguous lower surface of the sole. The sole thus treated is to have the upper surface of the part bent down stitch-impressed, as shown at f in Figs. 1 and 2. The bending down of the sole and the paring and impressing of it I usually accomplish at one and the same time, or thercabout, by a machine especially made for the purpose.
I claim- 1 The described improvement in the process of treating a boot or shoe sole, such consisting in bending such sole down at its edge in manner as set forth, and embossing or stitchimpressing the upper side of the part bent down, and paring or reducing the lower portion of such part, so as to bring the entire lower soleface essentially into one plane, as explained.
2. A boot or shoe sole embossed or stitchimpressed on its grain-surface, along the edge thereof, and having the part of such surface so embossed or stitch-impressed at an obtuse an gle with the next adjacent part of the said grain-surface.
3. A boot or shoe. sole embossed or stitchimpressed on its grain-surface, along the edge thereof, and having the part of such surface so embossed or stitch-impressed at an obtuse angle with the next adjacent part of said grainsnrface, and also having the opposite or flesh side essentially in one plane, or flush from edge to edge, as represented.
