BOOT AND SHOE HEEL.
Specification of Letters Patent No. 27,369, dated March 6, 1860.
To all whom "it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEO. W. KEENE, of Lynn, in the county of Essex and State of Massachusetts, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in the Manufacture of Heels for Boots and Shoes, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, making part of this specification, in which Figure 1, is a side view of a shoe, to the heel of which my improvements are attached; Fig. 2, a longitudinal vertical section through the same; Figs. 3 and 4-, de-
tails to be hereafter referred to.
In making heels for boots and shoes (particularly light ones for ladies) it is customary after several of the lifts or rises of leather have been put together, to drive into the heel a number of small brads the ends of which are left projecting a short distance above the heel, and the last rise or top lift as it is called is spanked or driven down onto the ends of these brads which enter it and hold it securely to the heel, and when a wooden heel has been used (such as is represented in the said drawings) a leather top lift has been secured-in the same manner.
The object of my present invention is to facilitate this branch of the manufacture of boots and shoes, and my invention consists in the fastening of the top lift, to the body of a heel of a boot or shoe, by an interposed metal plate having points or projections entering both the lift and the body of the heel. By the use of this plate the heel may be more expeditiously completed, at the same time that I am enabled to use a rather thinner or lighter top lift, the plate itself protecting the heel from wear when the top lift has partially worn off, thus making a saving in the cost of stock from which the top lift is made.
That others skilled in the art may understand and use my invention I will proceed to describe the manner in which I have carried out the same.
A plate of sheet metal 0 (seen detached in Fig. 3) has small triangular shaped pieces 2', struck up so as to project from both sides or faces of the plate. This plate is applied to the heel A, as shown in Fig. 2, and the top lift f is spanked onto it, the points 2' of one face of the plate entering the heel and those of the other face, the top lift holding them securely together.
Different sized plates will be used for different sized heels.
I do not wish to confine myself to plates made of any particular metal, but I prefer to make them from sheet steel.
In Fig. 4 is shown a triangular piece of sheet metal 9, the corners of which are bent down forming points 5 which may be driven through from the inside of the sole as repre sented in Fig. 2 into the heel A. These points serve to prevent the heel from turning on the shoe, and answer instead of brads; the center of the piece 9 is reamed out to receive the head of the nut Z). This piece 9, forms no part of my present invention as the body A, of the heel may be secured to the shoe in the ordinary way, the screw a and nut .7), being dispensed with.
\Vhat I claim as my invention and desire to secure by Letters Patent is Uniting the top-lift f, of boot or shoe heels, to the body A, of said heel, by means of an interposed metal plate 0 having points or projections on both of its'sides, and which enter the top-lift, and the body of the heel, and thus secure itself to the top-lift and the body of the heel, and each to the other, sub
stantially as described for the purpose specified.
