No. 27,433. PATENTED MAR. 13, 1860.
w. M. DAVIS. v
SHOE TIP.
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
IVILBUR M. DAVIS, OF CARMEL, MAINE.
SHOE-TIP.
Specification of Letters Patent No. 27,433, dated March 13, 1860.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, VILBUR M. DAVIS, of Carmel, in the county of Penobscot and State of Maine, have invented a new and useful article of manufacture, to wit, a tip or toe cap for the protection from wear or damage by any ordinary blow of the toes of all boots and shoes; and I hereby declare the following to be a full and exact description thereof and the method of applying said invention, reference being had to the accompanying drawings and the letters of reference marked thereon.
The nature of my invention consists in providing for, and applying to, the toes of all boots and shoes, of whatsoever material, whether sewed, pegged, nailed, or cemented, and whether turned or not, a tip or toe cap, of wire cloth or gauze, or other braided, woven or netted fabric of wire, whether of copper, brass or any other description, whether annealed or otherwise, of any color or size desired; which is flexible; and which without the use of a die, may be cut with knives, shears, or other cutting instrument; and may be molded or shaped, by hand or otherwise in fitting or reshaped by hand after use; and may be either hot or cold when applied.
To enable others skilled in the art to make and use my invention, I will proceed to de scribe its construction, operation and the method of applying it.
I make a boot or shoe in any of the known forms, and to the toe apply the tip, of any desired size, cut or shaped in the general form designated in the accompanying drawing, at A, so as to conform to the shape of the toe; after the shoe or boot is lasted, and before the outer sole is put on, I fasten the tip by the pegs, cement or nails which confine the toe of the sole to the shoe or boot. Or if the boot or shoe be sewed, I place the edges of the tip between the welt and vamp and fasten it to the vamp and inner sole and the welt, by the same sewing which unites them.
To apply it to a turned shoe or boot: I stitch the tip, by machine or by hand, at its upper edge to the vamp; and, after lasting the boot or shoe, fasten the tip by the same sewing which fastens the vamp and sole together. If it be not a turned boot or shoe, I do, or do not, stitch the tip to the vamp at its upper edge.
The annexed drawing marked B shows the tip as applied to a turned shoe; the drawing C, as applied to a welted shoe or boot.
What I claim, as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, as a new article, is
The construction of such a tip or cap of wire cloth or gauze or other braided woven or netted fabric of wire whether of copper, brass, or any other metal, and the application of the same to a boot or shoe sewed, nailed or pegged or cemented, whether turned or otherwise; for the purpose of pro tecting the leather, or other material of the shoe or boot, from injury by wear or ordinary blows.
