UNITED STATES JOSEPH HATCH MORISON,

OF OENTRALIA, KANSAS.
oVERsHoE ATTACHMENT;
SPECFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 465,189, dated December 15, 1891.
Application iled August l, 1891.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, JOSEPH HATCH MORI-V SON, ot Centralia, in the county of Nemaha and State of Kansas, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Overshoe Attachments, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
The object of this invention is to secure in av rapid, easy, and firm manner rubber or other overshoes on the ordinary or Walking boots or shoes ot' men, women, and children, so that, while said overshoes may be readily ordinary boots and shoes, they will be prevented from slipping or being drawn oft the same when traveling through mud, snow, or the like, and otherwise be generally protected from accidental removal when in use, still admitting of ready removal when required.
To this end myinvention consists in a novel clamping device for attachment to the heel end of the overshoe, substantiallyT as hereinafter described, and more particularly pointed out in the claims.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figures.
Figure 1 represents a View in perspective of the heel-end portion of a rubber or like overshoe with my attachment applied and as in position to clamp said overshoe on aleather or ordinary boot or shoe, shown only in part. Fig. 2 is a plan view in perspective of said clamping attachment detached; Fig. 3, a vertical section in direction of the length of the overshoe of the heel portion of the latter in part with my clamping attachment applied, said section being taken on the line 3 3 in Fig. 2; and Fig. 4 is a view in perspective of the lever part of the clamping attachment de- A indicates the upper heel-end portion of a rubber or like overshoe, and B the upper heel-end portion, in part, of a leather or other under boot or shoe over which the overshoe is tted.
C is the clamping attachment applied to the upper heel-end portion of the overshoe, at the back of the same, and consisting, sub- Serial No. 401.354. (No model.)
eral clamps or wings ZJ li, constructed when closed .inward to press against the back and opposite sides of the back of the heel-end portion of the overshoe, and ot' a lever 7.: for controlling or closing said clamps. These clamps or clamping-wings l) b, which are constructed to hug the upper heel-end portion of the overshoe, are hinged or jointed together at their inner ends, and united at the joint by a vertical hinge-pin c, passing through the jointed ends of the clamps and through an intermediate or center plate e, which is firmly secured to the upper heel-end portion of the overshoe-as, for instance, by a riveted shank f and clinched inner leg-piece g. The hingepin c should be riveted at its ends to prevent it from becoming accidentally detached, and the center plate e is providedwith a back- Wardly-protruding lug h, through which and the two side or cross arms of the T-shaped clamping-lever k a fulcrum-pin t' passes. The side or cross arms'of this lever 7c are ineffect camsand form the main clamping surfaces or portions of the lever as theV central member of said lever k is pressed downwardly against the heel of the shoe, as shown in Fig. l and represented by dotted lines in Fig. 3, which causes the cam-constructed cross-arms of the lever to bear on the clamping-wings b b and press them inward, as shown in Fig. l and by dotted lines in Fig. 3, thus making the upper heel-end portion of the overshoe bind. on or grip the heel-end portion of the under boot or shoe over which the overshoe is itted, and so prevent the accidental Withdrawal of the overshoe or slipping off of the same when Walking through muddy or sticky roads and the like.
To put on the overshce or to easily take off the same when required, the central member of the T-shaped cam-lever lc is turned upas for instance, into a horizontal position, as shownin Figs. 2 and 3-which releases the clamping-Wings b la from pressure upon the upper heel-end portion of the overshoe and causes the elasticity of the latter to throw the clamping attachment outward, as shown by full lines in Fig. 2, so that the heel end of the overshoe is free to be slipped on or off, asrequired.
By a single motion of the cam or clamping lever 7c, which may be done either by the hand or foot, the overshoe may by this attachment be locked on the under boot or shoe, so that it Will not come or be drawn olf in the mud7 and the clamping attachment being on the highest part of the overshoe it will be kept clean to manipulate by the fingers.
l When the attachment is applied to what are called toe rubber shoes, (elogs,) such overshoes can be put on Without stooping, and the oam or clamping lever can also be pressed down to lock by the toe of the other foot and without stooping.
Having thus described my invention, What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
l. A clamping attachment for rubber or other like overshoes, consisting, substantially, of a pair of opposite lateral pivoted clam ps tion at their inner ends With said plate, and' a cam-lever pivoted to the plate and arranged to bear upon the backs of said Wings, substantially as shown and described.
