Description

UNITED STATES PATENT rrrcn,
ROBERT JQYNES BAGGALEY, OE NOTTINGHAM, ENGLAND.
COMPOSlTlON OF MATEREAL FOR DAMP-PROOF SOCKS 0R SOLES FOR BOOTS, dc.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 315,885, dated April 14, 1885.
Application tiled January 31, 1885. (No specimens.) Patented in England January 15, 1383, No. 230,
To aZZ whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, ROBERT JoYNEs BAG- GALEY, manufacturer, a subject of theQueen of England, residing at Nottingham, England, have invented a new and useful Improved Composition of Materials for Damp-Proof Socks or Soles for Boots and Shoes, and method of preparing or manufacturing the same, (for which I have obtained a British patent, No. 230, dated January 15, 1883,) of which the following is a specification.
The said invention relates to the manufacture of an improved composition of materials for making damp-proof socks or soles for boots and shoes in an improved, economical, more satisfactory, and convenient manner than heretofore.
Hitherto socks or soles for boots and shoes have been principally manufactured from the bark of the cork-tree, commonly known as cork, which must necessarily be cut the way of the grain of the wood, so as to obtain the requisite size. Such socks or soles are generally defective by reason of the numerous pores or minute holes or flaws in the wood or material, which eventually allow the wet or damp to reach the feet of the wearer.
The object of my present invention is therefore to produce socks or soles manufactured from a material or composition of materials devoid (or nearly so) of the porosity of sheets of cork, and consequently better adapted to protect the feet against the evil effects of damp or wet. The said improved composition of materials for damp-proof socks or soles for boots and shoes is prepared by reboiling boiled linseed-oil, (or other suitable dryingoil,)with theaddition of causticlime and borax, in the proportion of one pound weight of each of them to one hundred-weight of oil. The reboiling is continued until the compound, when cold, is about of the consistency of putty, and when the compound is cold there is kneaded into it half a pound more caustic lime, one ounce of essential oil of almonds, and two pounds of flowers of sulphur, with finelypul verized or ground cork, in the proportion of one and one-quarter hundred-weight of cork to one hundredweight of the compound. The compound is next passed between rollers, and by suitable pressure spread upon fleece, felt, animals skins,or other suitable non-conductor of heat, which is fed to the rollers in the required proportion. The improved compound is thus formed into sheets or lengths of eompact material having on one side of the material a warm covering of some suitable nonconductor of heat, and when these sheets or lengths of material are dry they may be out or stamped out, either by hand or machinery, into shapes suitable for socks and, soles of boots and shoes, and any subsequent stitching or binding operations are rendered unnecessary.
Theimproved material may also with great advantage be used in the manufacture of boots and shoes, a layer of the material being placed between the outer and inner soles of the boots and shoes. The material is also applicable for making the bodies of hats when covered with suitable material.
It is obvious that by varying the ingredients or substituting or adding others various compounds of cork and oil may be formed which may be employed for forming sheets or lengths of materials from which damp-proof socks or solesfor boots and shoes may be manufactured; but I preferably employ the compound here inbefore described, as being better adapted for the purpose than any other composition.
I claim- The herein-described composition of matter, consisting of oxidized linseed-oil, caustic lime, borax, essential oil of almonds, flowers of sulphur, and pulverized or ground cork, in the proportions substantially as specified.
ROBERT JUYNES BAGGALEY.
