BURNISHING APPARATUS FOR BOOTS OR SHOBS.

CHARLES J. ADDY, OF MALDEN, MASSACHUSETTS, ASSIGNOR. TO THEODORE A. DODGE, TRUSTEE. V
BURNISHING APPARATUS FOR BOOTS OR SHOES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 275,452, dated April 10, 1883.
Application filed December 8, 1882. (No model.)
To all who"), it may concern:
Be it known that I, CHARLES J. ADDY, of Malden, county of Middlesex, State of Massachusetts, have invented an Improvement in 5 Burnishing Apparatus for Boots or Shoes, of
which the following description, in connection with the accompanying drawings, is a specification, like letters on the drawings representing like parts.
This invention relates to a novel apparatus for burnishing the edges of soles and heels of boots and shoes.
In my invention I employ a hand-operated v burnishing-tool mounted in a pivoted yield- I 5 ing frame or yoke under the control of the hand and foot of the workman, he moving the tool backward and forward over the part of the shoe to be burnished, while he at the same time by his foot bears the face of the burnishing-tool with more or less force upon the edge to be burnished.
Figure 1 represents in side elevation a burnishing apparatus embodying my invention; and Fig. 2, a front view thereof, partially in section.
The burnishing-tool herein shown has its head a provided with the two edge-burnish ing irons a. a connected with the handle a placed loosely about a metal pipe, I), which en ables the passage of gas therethrough from the flexible pipe b, connected with a suitable reservoir holding gas. The ignited gas, issuing from an orifice, 'n, at the lower end of the pipe, heatsthe irons. The loose handle forms the shank of the tool, to be grasped by the operator to move the tool. pipe I) sustains a loop or eye, b, which is engaged by a suitable loop or eye at the lower end'of a suspended freely-moving frame or yoke, 0, having a shank, c, fitted to a stem, shown as having an eye, 0 and pivoted upon an eye, 0, of a lever, d, having its fulcrum at d on a suitable support, d the lever being provided with a weight, d, to more or 4 5 less counterbalance the weight of the frame or yokeandburnishing-tool. Aspiralspring,e,is
placed between the shank c and the stem 0 and to prevent the separation of the stem and shank a pin, 3, in the shank enters a slot, 6, 5.0 in the stem. The upper end of the pipe b has The lower end of the an eye, I), with which is engaged a spiral spring, f, attached to the yoke c to keep the handle of the tool in upright position. The lever 41 is connected by rod 9 with a foot-piece, g, by which to depress or force down the frame or yoke c.
The shoe h (the sole h of which is to be burnished) will be placed upon any usual jack, so that it may be rotated about a horizontal axle, W, to enable all parts of its edge to be presented uppermost to be acted upon by the burnishing-iron of proper shape. The burnishing-iron having been placed upon the edge of the sole, as in the drawings, and the operator, having grasped the handle a in his 6 hand, will place his foot on the foot-piece, turn the leverd until its'end depresses the stem 0 causing the spring 0 therein to act upon the end of the shank c and force it and the yoke c and tool downward by a yielding pressure, which is made more or less strong by the ac tion of the foot of the operator on the footpiece. As the tool is vibrated by hand the jack or shoe will be rotated by hand, and the hand-operated tool will be pressed against the sole-edge by a force measured by the pressure of the foot on the foot-piece, thus enabling the operator to burnish a sole-edge with less fatig'ue and in a better manner than with a burnishing-iron held in the hand and pressed against the sole by hand. The loosely-pivoted stem 0 forms part of the yoke or frame.-
My apparatus, with an iron ofsuitable shape, may be used to burnish heels.
I may, if desired, connect the upper instead of the lower end of the pipe I) with the frame 0, the framethen pushing the pipe and tool down rather than pulling them down, the springfin such plan being omitted.
The handle and its connected head and attached tools, being loose on the pipe I), may be rotated thereon to place either tool in position to act upon the sole-edge, the said pipe also serving as a conductor for gas or other heating medium as well as asupport for the handle. 95
I do not broadly claim a burnishing-tool and a lever to regulate the amount of pressure of the tool against the edge of the boot or shoe.
1 claim- 1. The lever, and the suspended freely-movr00 ing yoke or frame having an interposed spring; I vided with one or more tools, and the pipe b, and the burnishing-tool connected with or suson which the handle is mounted to turn, comtained by the said frame, and adapted to be biued with the suspended freely-moving yoke grasped and moved by the handofthe operator or frame, substantially as described. 15
5 over the sole or edge to be burnished, combined In testimony whereofl have signed my name with a conneetedi'oot-piece to receive thefootof to this specification in the presence of two subthe operator and regulate the amount of pressscribing Witnesses. ure of the iron 0f the burnishing-tool upon the CHARLES J. ADDY. part of the boot or shoe being burnished, sub- \Vitnesses:
1o stantially as shown and described. I G. V. GREGORY,
2. The handle, and its connected head pro BERNICE J. XOYES.
