MANUFACTURE OF BOOT OR SHOE UPPERS.
SFECZFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 3%1,835, dated May 11, 1886.
Application filed March 8, 1886.
To otZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, HENRY SMITH GUsH- MAN, of Milford, in the county of Worcester, of the Commonwealth ofMassachusetts, have invented a new and useful Improvement in the lilanufacture of Boot or Shoe Uppers; and I do hereby declare the same to be de scribed in the following specification and represented in the accompanying drawings, of which- Figure 1 is a side view of a blank for the formation of a shoe-upper in accordance with my invention, the nature of which is defined in the claims hereinafter presented. Fig. 2 is a side view of a blank for the formation of a boot-upper embodying such invention. Figs. 3 and 4 are longitudinal sections of such blanks, showing the manner in which they are split to form them into uppers. Figs. 5 and 6 are top or upper edge Views, and Figs. 7 and 8 are lower edge views, of
such blanks, showing the lines of separation of each in order to form it into an upper. Fig. 9 is a top View of the shoe-upper as made from the form shown in Fig. 1.
In carrying out my invention I takea piece ofleather of double the thickness required for the upper, and having a boundary of proper shape-that is, essentially as shown at A in either of the Figs. 1 and 2and I split it lengthwise, from its lower edge upward, to and through its upper edge, except that I- do not slit it through its back or rear edge, nor through its front edge, except perhaps for a shoe or bootee particularly.
In Figs. 5, 6, 7, and 8 of the drawings the slit is shown by the line a.
In Fig. 8 the contour of the blank is shown at b c d efand that of the slit at g h 't ltd c 9, while in Fig. 4 the contour of the blank is represented at b 0 dc and that of the slit atf g h 'i.
By cutting or slittingthe blank as shown in Fig. 3 it becomes separated, except at the back and part of the front of it, it being open both at top and bottom and through part of its front.
By slitting the blank as shown in Fig. 4 it becomes separated, except at its back and front, it being open both at top and bottom.
Having thus split the blank, it may be placed on a proper last or mold and have its connections at its front and back properly Serial No. 194,417. (No model.)
rubbed down, after which the upper thus made may be lined, bound, or otherwise treated as uppers usually are preparatory to being soled and finished.
I do not claim a shoeupper split from leather in the manner as represented in either of the Patents Nos. 295,826, 320,406, or 303,883, it being open at its rear edge, and has to be backseamed to complete it, whereas my upper has neither a back nor a front seam.
I claim- 1. As a new or improved manufacture, a shoe-upper composed of a single piece of leather, in form substantially as represented, split lengthwise from its lower to its upper edge, excepting through and along its rear edge and part of its front edge, whereby the upper so made is without any back seam.
2. As a new or improved manufacture, a boot upper composed of a single piece of leather, in form substantially as represented, split lengthwise from bottom to top, excepting at its front and rear edges, as set forth, whereby such upper, when finished,has no front or back seam extending from top to bottom of it.
3. The process, substantially as described, of manufacturing a shoeupper, such process consisting of slitting a blank piece of leather of the required form, substantially as repre sented, lengthwise from its bottom to its top, except at its rear edge and part of its front edge, and subsequently stretching it upon a last and rubbing down or reducing the parts left uncut, so as to complete the upper without any back or front seam, all as set forth.
4. The process, substantially as described, of manufacturing a boot-upper, such process consisting in slitting a blank piece of leather of the required form, substantially as represented, lengthwise from bottom to top, except through its front and rear edges, and subsequently stretching it on a proper last or form and rubbing down or reducing the parts left uncut, so as to complete the upper without any seam either at its front or back, all being essentially as explained.
R. H. EDDY, It. 13. TORREY.
