UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.V
JACOB AUTENRIEIH, OF PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA.
, IMPROVED EYELET FOR. LACING SHOES.
Specication forming part of Letters Patent No. 37,328, dated January 6, 1853.
l To all whom t may concern:
of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and Improved Eyelet for Lacing Shoes, 85e.; and I do hereby 4declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying draw ings, forming part of this specification, in Which- Y Figure l represents a perspective view of a shoe with my improved eyelets. Fig. 2 is a detached sectional View of the eyelet. Fig. 3 is a modification ofthe same.
Similar letters of reference in the three views indicate corresponding parts.
To enable those skilled in the art to make and use my invention, I will proceed to describe it with reference to' the drawings.
lith eyelets of the ordinary constructionsuch as are in general use for lacing shoesthe lacing passes alternately above and below the edges of the leather, and the friction between the lacing-and the parts of the shoe is so great that in order to put on the-shoe each section of the lacing has to be pulled out separately, and after the foot has been entered each section of the lacing has to be strained separately, thus rendering the operation of lacing a shoe very tiresome and disagreeable. In many cases it becomes necessary to pull the ends of the lacing entirely out ofthe two or four upper orlast eyelets in order to be able to enter the foot into the shoe, and after the foot is entered and the lacing has been strained it is extremely diflicult to pass the ends of the same back through the last or upper eyelets, because the leather bears at down upon the foot, and in order to `pass the lacing through the eyelets it (the leather) has to be turned back. These difficulties I have completely obviated by the use of my improved eyelet.
My eyelet A is constructed with a tubular projection, c, similar to an ordinary eyelet, or it may be made with two prongs, a', llig. 3, which pass through the leather, and by being punched or turned over at the inner surface the eyelet is fastened. The tubular projection c or prongs a are covered with a flat disk, b, the edge ot' which bears down on the outer surface of the leather and gives to the eyelet a good hold. This disk bears the loop or eye c, through which the lacing B is passed, as clearly shown in Fig. l of the drawings. By these means the lacing is kept entirely above the upper surface of the leather, and on being strained it slips easily through the eyes c, so that the edges of the shoe can be spread simply by pulling them apart Without releasing severally the sections of the lacing, and after the foot has been entered the edges of the shoe are closed up by pulling the ends of the lacing, and if the lacing should pass out of one of the eyelets, or if a new lacing is to be introduced, its ends can be readily passed through the loops whether the shoe be on or oft'. Y
My invent-ion is also applicable for lacing corsets and other similar purposes.
Playin g thus described my invention, I claim as an improved article of manufacture'- A lacingeyelet, made with a tubular projection or prongs a a', disk b, and eye c, as
`herein shown and described.
JACOB AUTENRIEIH.
