ATENT TIP AND STUD FOR BOOTS OR SHOES.
*EPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 326,844, dated September 22, 1885.
Application filed OctObGl' 24, 1884. (No model.) Patented in England January 7, 1884, No. 888; in France October 8. 1884, No. 164,684; in Belgium October 9, 1884, No. 66,546, and in Germany October 17, 1884, N0. 3!,544.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, GEORGE CHAMBERS, a subject of the Queen of Great Britain, residing at 2L Arbuthnot Road, Peckham, in the county of Surrey, England, commercial trav elcr, have invented certain new and u 'eful Improvements in Tips for the Heels and Soles of Boots or Shoes, (for which I have obtained Letters Patent in Great Britain, No. 888, dated January 7, 1884; in France, No. 16l,684, dated October 8, 1881; in Belgium, No. 66,546, dated October 9, 1884, and in Germany, No. 31,544., dated October 17, 1884,) of which the following is a specification.
The tips to which my invention relates are of the class in which pieces of metal are inlaid into the heels or into the soles of boots or shoes at any parts where special protection from wear is requisite. The tip on its inner side is formed with a projecting bar or ridge, and sometimes with studs. The bar or ridge is sharp on the edge, extends at its ends laterally beyond the tip, and extends similarly beyond the studs, when they are used, and is to be driven into a groove formed to receive it in the under leather. The studs are received in holes in the outer or surface leather. The surface-leather is out out to receive the wear ing part of the tip, which replaces the leather so cut away, and with it forms a flush surface.
The surface-leather also overlaps the projecting ends of the bar on the inner side of the tip which penetrates the under leather, and so aids in holding the tip in place. In some cases, as in workmens boots, the tips may be so applied as to project from the surface of the leather.
In order that my said invention maybe most fully understood and readily carried into of feet, I will proceed to describe the drawings hereunto annexed.
Figures 1 and 2 show portions of the under sides of boot or shoe soles provided with tips at the toes. Figs. 3 and a are similar ,views of heels provided with tips. Fig. 5 shows one form of tip, and Fig. 6 represents another form of tip.
As shown in Fig. 5, the tip b is provided with the bar or ridge d, having a sharp upper edge, (the edge of the bar is preferably ser rated.) and the ends of which project beyond or laterally to the tip. The bar is provided upon and projects from the inner or upper surface of the tip. The bar rests at its two projecting ends on the inner face of the leather sole or heel-piece into a suitable groove or recess in which the tip is received, and the sharp edge of the bar penetrates the under leather, into which it is forced when the sole is applied.
\Vhen the outer sole has been prepared,with the tip inserted into it from the inner side, the sole is placed on the under leather, and by hammering the sharp bar or ridge of the tip is made to penetrate the under leather either until the two thicknesses of leather are in contact, or else until the under leather is sufficiently penetrated to plainly mark it, after which the outer leather may be temporarily laid aside, and the under leather be grooved with a knife, so as to facilitate the penetration of the tip-bar into it upon again adjusting and finally securing the outer sole. The bars or ridges on the tips, resting at their projecting ends against the inner side of the outer leather, firmly secure the tips in place, and the bars also serve to retain the tips either flush with the outer surface of the leather or projecting to any desired extent therefrom.
As shown in Fig. 6, the main portion or plate I) of the tip is provided with two sharpedged bars or ridge-pieces, d d, with which are formed or rigidly connected two studs, 0 c, which afford additional protection to the heel or sole of the boot or shoe to which they are applied. By employing these studs the accidental displacement of the tip 1), although let into a slot or groove extending to the edge of the sole, is rendered impossible, as will readily be understood. By serrating the sharp edges of the bars, as shown, their penetration of the under leather is facilitated. The ends of the bars d at project beyond or laterally to the tip b and studs 0 c, as clearly shown.
In preparing a sole to receive a tip provided with the studs, and the bar or two bars connecting the studs and tip, holes are punched in the sole from the inner side, into which the studs are inserted. As these holes will naturally be somewhat larger on the inner side than on the outer side of the outer leather, the studs are made to taper accordingly. The recess or slot for the tip and the holes for its studs having been provided in the outer leather, it is secured in place, as will readily.
studs, and the sharp bar or bars connecting the tip and the stud or studs, and extending laterally beyond the stud or studs, substantially as described.
2. The tip provided with the sharp bar or ridge projecting above and extending at its ends laterally beyond it, substantially as described.
