HEEL FOR BOOTS OR SHOES. No. 316,456. Patented Apr; 28, 1885.
Vllllllllfll d UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
BENJAMIN F. HALL, OF NEWBURYPORT, MASSACHUSETTS HEEL FOR BOOTS OR SHOES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 316,456, dated April 28, 1885.
Application filed November 5, 1884. (No model.)
To aZZ whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, BENJAMIN F. HALL, of the city of N ewburyport, in the county of Essex and State of Massachusetts, have invented new and useful Improvements in Boot and Shoe Heel Lifts and Protectors, of which the following is a specification, reference being made to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification.
Figure 1 is a plan view of a boot or shoe heel, showing my improvement attached thereto. Fig. 2 is a sectional view of heel and plate atline c d, showing the attaching-screw. Fig. 3 is a surface view of my improvement. Fig. 4 is a sectional view of my invention at points a 1).
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
My invention has for its object to furnish an adjustable attachment for boot and shoe heels to remedy irregular wear and keep the heels in shape, and at the same time more securely hold the top lift in place.
The invention will first be fully described, and'then pointed out in the claim.
P is a circular metallic plate with a receding center, 0, having the hole 0 at its central point. to receive the screw S, which screw secures the metal plate and the top lift, L, in part to the heel H. The top lift, L, is channeled or countersunk to a sufficient depth to receive the plate I, leaving its face flush with the remaining surface of the top lift.
My invention, it will be seen, presents a large metal wearingsurface, at the same time leaving enough leather at its edges to prevent slipping and keep the same comeliness in the heel finish as if no protector had been applied.
The metal part of my invention may be made by stamping from any ductile metal spun or cast in substantially the shape shown. The top lift to receive the metal plate may be eoun tersunk by a rotary cutter or other suitable device that will make the desired cavity.
By observing sectional view in Fig. 4 it will be seen that the metal plate does not wholly cut away the toplift, it being deemed best to -leave sufficient material so that the metal plate shall more securely hold the top lift in place by the attachingscrew S, and thus remedy a trouble sometimes experienced when the top lift is driven onto the protruding heads of nails set in the heel to receive and secure it. I may, if found necessary to prevent turning, put spurs on the attaching sides of plate P; but I am inclined to think the manner of construction here shown to be preferable.
I am aware that tliere have been revolving plates and devices set into the heel, to which I lay no claim as of my invention.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I do claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
The boot or shoe heel herein described, provided with the revoluble circular metal plate P, of smaller diameter than the tread-surface of said heel, and having the central countersunk screw-hole, O, the heel being centrally recessed to let the plate in flush with its treadsurface, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto signed my name and affixed my seal, in the presence of two attesting witnesses, at Newburyport, in the county of Essex and State of Massachusetts, this 29th day of October, A. D. 1884.
