RETAINING DEVICE FOR OVERSHOES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 426,312, dated April 22, 1890.
Application filed August 14:, 1389. Serial No. 320,791. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern-.-
Be it known that I, JOHN A. PATTON, of San Diego, in the county of San Diego and State of California, have invented a new and Improved Retaining Device for Over-shoes and Similar Articles of Foot-VVear, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact de- Scription.
My invention relates to an improved retaining device especially adapted for use in connection with rubber overshoes, and has for its object to provide a simple and effective attachment whereby the shoe will be prevented from being drawn from the foot by suction or otherwise.
A further object of the invention is to provide a device which may be secured to the shoe without injury thereto.
The invention consists in the novel construction and combination of the several parts, as will be hereinafter fully set forth, and pointed out in the claims.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar figures and letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the views.
Figure 1 is a perspective view of an overshoe having the invention applied thereto. Fig. 2 is a partial section through the heel of the shoe. Fig. 3 is a partial inner view of the heel, illustrating the application of the device; and Fig. 4 is a perspective view of the device detached from the shoe.
The device consists of a strip of, preferably, spring metal bent to form an inner shanksection 10 and an inverted-S-shaped section 11, whereby two parallel loops at and b are produced, one open at the top and the other at the bottom.
After forming a single S-shaped section 11 the metal is again bent to an inverted-S shape, contacting with the section already formed and rendering the loops thereby of double thickness. The outer end of the metal strip, after completing the double formation of the S shaped section,is carried downward parallel with the shank-section 10, and the extremity of the said outer end of the metal is reduced to form a tongue 12, which tongue is bent horizontally and made to extend through an aperture formed in the shank-section. shanksection is also provided with a transverse indentation or groove 13 upon the face opposed to that end of the strip carrying the tongue, as best shown in Fig. 2.
In applying the device the shank-section is made to contact with the inner face of the heel portion of the shoe at its center and the loop or S-shaped section contacts with the upper edge of the heel and extends downward at the rear of the same. One end of a cord 15 is placed in the groove 13 of the shanksecton, whereby saidcord is made to lie between the inner face of the shoe and the shank-section, as shown in Fig. 2. The tongue is then passed through the heel to the inner face of the same and through the aperture in the shank-section of the device, whereupon the inner projecting end of the tongue is bent or clamped or otherwise secured to the inner face of the shank-section.
When the shoe is worn, the cord is passed around the instep, as shown in Fig. 1, and after being tightly drawn the free end of the cord is clamped to the shoe by being pressed upward into the loop a and downward into the outer loop 19.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- 1. As an improved article of manufacture, a retaining device for overshoes or other footwear, consisting of a strip of metal bent to form a shank and inverted-S-shaped upper The portion, the outer end of the metal extending downward from the S-section being provided with a tongue adapted to extend through the shank, and a cord secured at one end to the said shank-section, substantially as shown and described.
2. As an improved article of manufacture, a retaining device for overshoes or other foot wear, consisting of a strip of spring metal bent upon itself to form a shank, having a transverse goove, an upper inverted-S-shaped section producing two loops, one openat the top and the other at the bottom, and an outer section extending downward from the S or loop section, provided with a tongue adaptedto project through the shank-section, and a cord secured at one end within the transverse groove of the shank-section, substan-- tially as and for the purpose specified.
3. The combination, with an overshoe or similar article of foot-Wear, of a retaining de- 5 vice consisting of apiece of spring metal bent to form a shank contacting with the inner face of the shoe at its heel, an upper inverted- S-shaped portion extending over the heel to its outer face, and an outer shank section ex- [0 tending'downward from the S-section, provided with a tongue capable of projecting JOHN A. PATTON.
