BOOTS OR SHOES.
SPECIFICATION formingpart of Letters Patent No. 363,946, dated May 31, 1887.
Application tiled February 3, 1887. Serial No. 226,419. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, CHARLES KEMPTON BRADFORD, of Lynnfield, in the county of Essex and State of Massachusetts, haveinvented an Improvement'in the Manufacture of Boots and Shoes, of which the following is a specification, in.which Figure'l is a plan of a part of a stout inner sole with my improvement, and Fig.2-isasec-. tion on line 2 2 of Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a plan of a thinner inner sole with my improvement and a counter in place. Fig. 4 is a section on line 4 4 of Fig. 3, and Fig. 5 is a section on line 5 5 of Fig. 3.
My invention consists in the flap B, connected at its outer edge to that surface of the inner sole which is outermost when'the inner sole is in place on the last and during the process of lasting, the flap being adapted to be sewed to the upper of the last or shoe.
, In Figs. 1 and 2 the flap-B is in one piece with the inner sole, A; but when theinner sole is too thin to allow of the flap B being thus formed, as in Figs. 3, 4, and 5, the flap B is sewed, cemented, or otherwise secured around its outer edge to the inner sole, A. The integral flap B (shown in Figs. 1 and 2) and the attached flap B (shown in Figs. 3, 4, and 5) are equivalents.
The purpose of the flap B is to enable the upper to be secured to the inner sole by stitches, the thread passing through the flap B near its junction with the inner sole and through the upper, and the flap being afterward leveled or flattened down.
It is the practice to tack the upper'to the flange d of counter D and to the inner sole around the heel in sewed shoes, and therefore my flap B is not used where this practice is followed. Moreover, the flange d of the countcr D would in most cases cover the flap B if secured about the heel part of the inner sole proper. For this reason I connect the flap B with the flanged of counter D, and inthis way get the flap about the heel, where it is desired to avoid the use of tacks or other metallic fastenings about the heel, the counter D serving admirably to connect the flap B with the heel part of the inner sole, Athat is to say, the counter must be connected with the inner sole, and consequently the flap, being connected by its outer edge to the flange d of counter D, is thereby connected to the inner sole, A. I have shown the flap about the heel part as integral with the flanged of the counter; but it is obvious that it may be a strip sewed or otherwise secured to the flange of the counter, for the flange ofthe counter formsin substancea part of the inner sole when the counter is in place, the fact being that the inner sole is composed of two thicknesses about the heel, one thickness being the flange d of the counter.
I am aware of Richardsons patent, No. 94,648, dated September 7, 1869, and disclaim all thatis shown in it, my invention differing radically from the invention setfor th in his patent in that my sole is an insole-that is, a soleinside the shoe-while his sole is asole out side the shoe, and my flap B is not a weltthatis, is notapiece forming part ofasole-edge and lying between the outer surface of the up per and the sole and showing on the outside of the shoebut is a piece which does not form part of the sole, but is joined to the sole at some distance from the edge, is between inner surface of the upper and asole inside the shoe, and is hidden from view on the inside of the shoe by the inner sole and on the outside of the CHARLES KEMPTON BRADFORD.
