BOOT OR SHOE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Application filed May 13, lfS.
To all whom i6 may concern:
Be it known that I, WILLIAM BENNETT AR- NOLD, of North Abington, in the county of Plymouth,of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, have invented a new and useful Improve4 ment in Boots or Shoes; and I do hereby declare the same to be described in the following speciiication and represented in the accompanying drawings, of which- Figure l is a bottom view of a shoe upper and insole, and a welt-piece sewed to 'them and extending from the toe to the shank of the shoe. Fig. 2 is a bottom view of the filling-piece that is arranged between the insole and the outer sole and within the welt-piece. Fig. 3 is a bottom view of the shoe with the outer sole sewed to the welt-piece and to the shank and heel portions of the upper and the insole. Fig. 4 is a longitudinal section of the shoe. Fig. 5 is a transverse section of it, taken through the shank. Fig. 6 is a transverse section of it, taken through the welt-piece.
The nature of my invention is deiined in the claims hereinafter presented.
In the drawings, A denotes the upper, B the insole, C the welt-piece, D the llingpiece, and E the outer sole.
After having lasted the upper on the insole and secured them together by nails or tacks in the usual way, the welt-piece, shaped as represented-viz., somewhat like a horseshoeis laid on the laps of the upper on the insole, and so as to extend from the toe to the shank ofthe shoe, and is fastened to the insole and upper by sewing b going through such welt-piece and the insole and the said laps of the upper, such sewing being accomplished by a McKay sewing-machine. Next, a filling-piece, D, shaped as shown in Fig. 2, is to beinserted in the space between the legs .c c of the welt-piece, the front end tting snugly within the welt C, the concave curves d d resting against the corresponding convex curves, c c,of the welt, locking the two together, and is to extend lengthwise across the shank to the heel, the shank portion of said filling-piece being beveled or scarfed at its two opposite edges, as shown at d d. Next, the outer sole is to be laid on the welt-piece and the lling-piece, and is to project laterally each way beyond the filling-piece at the shank part thereof. The outer sole is to be grooved in the shank to receive the stitch- Patent No. 335,555, dated February 9, 1886.
Serial No. 165,314. (No model.)
ing by which it is to be connected with the shoe-upper and the insole. rIhe outer sole, where covering the welt-piece, is next to be sewed to such Welt-piece by sewing e lgoing through them outside of and parallel with the sewingb, by which the welt-piece is connected Vwith the insole and upper. Next, the part of the outer sole that extends in rear of the Weltpiece is to be fastened to the insole and laps of the upper by sewing f going through such outer sole, upper, and insole, which sewing is to be performed by a McKaysewing-machine. The shoe may next be heeled and finished.
From the above it will be seen that I do not have a welt extending from the heel to the toe of the shoe, but only from thetoeto the shank, and that the outer sole projects laterally beyond each edge of the filling-piece at the shank thereof, the parts so projecting resting directly on the laps ofthe upper, all of the outer sole that is in advance ot' its shank being sewed to the welt.
In the drawings a steel spring or shank-stiffener is represented at F as fastened to the insole. The said shank-stiffener goes between the insole and the shank part of the fillingpicce D, and in view of the Welt being extended only to the shank and not along such,and the filling-piece being usually of leather-board, or leather inferior in strength to that of the welt or the outer sole, the shank-stiii'ener becomes a useful and valuable auxiliary or necessity to render the shank sufficiently st-iit'.
I would remark that the welt is not astri p of leather' bent around at the toe and sides of the upper,and thereby wrinkled, as is the case of necessity with such kinds of welts, but is cut in the form represented from a piece of leather, and therebyihas no wrinkles or cuts to removethein, and asa consequence can not only be stitched to better advantage or stronger to the upper and insole, but also to the outer sole.
A welted shoe made in the above-described manner can be constructed cheaper than one there is a saving in leather in having no welt in the shank, andthe shoein front of the shank has the usual appearance of a welted or handmade shoe. A boot of course can have its upper and insole provided with awelt extending only from the toe to the shank, and provided with a filling reaching over the shank and to having a welt extending along the shank, as
IOO
the heel, the outer sole being fastened to the welt and the shank in manner as hereinbefore stated.
I am aware that it is not broadly new to have a partial Welt with a filling-piece Within. In my device the lling-piece interlocks with the ends of the Welt, and the welt being cut out into shape and not bent, the two form a smooth and continuously firm surface,acting as a third sole between the other two, and the filling supports the Welt and forms in appearancea continuation thereof to the rear.
I am also aware that stiffeningsprings have been inserted into shoes; but the filling-piece extension d2, having to sustain the movement under the instep,and made of inferior leather re-enforced by a spring, is novel.
What I claim isl. In a boot or shoe, the partial Welt C, having the legs c @,with the convex curves c c', in combination with the filling-piece D, fitting snugly Within the welt and having concave curves d d', corresponding with and resting against curves c' c', whereby the Welt and fillingpiece are rnnly held together, as and for the purpose described.
2. In a boot or shoe, the partial Welt C and the filling-piece D, snugly fitting within such welt at the front and extending back of the welt at the instep, in combination with the stiffener F, located at such instep and at such rear extension of the lling-piece, as set forth.
