OVERSHOE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 317,360, dated May 5, 1885.
Application filed August 27, 1884. (No model.)
To aZZ whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, JAMES S. HOPKINS, a. citizen of the United States, residing at South Framingham, in the county of Middlesex and State of Massachusetts, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Rubber Overshoes; and I do hereby declare that the same are fully described in the following specification and illustrated in the accompanying drawlugs.
This invention is designed to provide for lumbermen and others who work much in the snow an overshoe that will exclude snow and water much better than those in ordinary use.
My invention consists in a rubber overshoe provided with a flexible tongue secured to the shoe at one end, and extending upwardly Without folds beneath the fastening devices.
My invention also contemplates cutting the lining or textile interior of such shoe in a single piece, to avoid seams, and also that the supports for its strap and buckle or other fastening devices are integral with the body of the shoe.
The drawings illustrate these peculiar features of my invention, Figure 1 showing the shoe complete. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section of the shoe, and Fig. 3 a reduced duplicate of the pattern for cutting the lining or body of the shoe in one piece.
In the manufacture of my improved shoe, as shown in the drawings, I place upon the sheet of fabric from which the lining is to be cut the pattern A, Fig. 3, and with a sharp knife cut around the edges a, to form a complete lining in a single piece. I then out out a nearly triangular portion, following the lines I) b and c, and from the hole thus produced I cut the goods along the line d perpendicular to the base of the triangle cut away, and thus form, in one with the body, the supports B, to which the strap G and buckle D or other fastening devices are secured. The plastic sheet of rubber compound to form the exterior surface of the shoe is preferably cut similarly, except as to the part F, which is not removed. The rubber may, however, be in two or more pieces, since the nature of the compound is such that the pieces readily unite under the heat of vulcanizing when lapped or abutted against each other. coating of rubber frictioned into it, so that the outer sheet will readily adhere. The tongue E is shown as cut of a nearly triangular shape, and is preferably of the same kind of material as the lining, and has the rubbercoated or water-proof surface on the outside. This coating may, if preferred, be somewhat heavier than the friction film of rubber on the lining fabric. The tongue 1s secured at the point or small end only to the shoe-that is, its sides are free above the part I* of the shoe, where the outer sheet of rubber overlaps it and holds it in place. In addition to this, the edges 1) b of the lining lap over the edges of the tongue at its lower end. The two are preferably cemented to each other along these edges before being lasted. I sometimes cut the tongue E in one with the lining, instead of taking out the triangular piece, as stated; but I prefer to cement in the tongue and leave the fastening-supports B integral with the shoe itself. The parts of the lining lettered G on the pattern extend around to the heel, and are there abutted smoothly together without a lap or ridge at the line H.
The various steps in the manufacture of the shoe I have not deemed it necessary to describe, since they are well known to manufacturers of rubber shoes.
I disclaim the well-known overshoe called the Snow-Excluder, which has between the vamp and the quarters folded pieces of fabric secured along each edge to said parts, but not constituting a free tongue; also the common Arctic overshoe having the vamp itself extended up over the instep in a single piece, or in two or more pieces stitched together. I am also aware that many styles of leather shoes are furnished with leather tongues stitched at one end to the vamp. My purpose is to furnish rubber overshoes with equally useful water-proof tongues, and to provide such shoes with linings seamless at front and sides, and with only a vertical abutted joint where the quarters meet at the heel.
I claim as my invention- 1. An overshoe having an external coating The lining fabric will have the usual ICO of rubber, and within it a lining cut in a sinof rubber on its upper surface, substantially gle piece, said shoe being provided with an as set forth. Io elongated water-proof tongue secured at one In testimony whereof Ihereto affix my signaend within the shoe substantially as set forth. ture in presence of two witnesses.
2. An overshoe having an external coating JAMES S. HOPKINS. of rubber and an internal lining 'of fibrous Witnesses: material, and provided with a tongue formed A. H. SPENCER, of material similar to the lining, with afilm F. A. SPENCER.
