LACE-STRING.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent o. 550,422, dated November 26, 1895. Animation nea my 2,1895. serial No.554,745. (No model.)
To @ZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, OTTO SCHAMBEOK, a citi- Zen of Germany, and a resident of New York city, New York, have invented an Improved Lace-String, of which the following is a speciiication.
This invention relates to a lace-string which is so constructed that it need not be tied at the ends and that it will be held perfectly taut after being once secured to the lace-hooks.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure l is a perspective view of a shoe provided with my improved lace-string. Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the string; Fig. 3, a detail showing the end of the string engaged by one of the lace-hooks; Fig. 4, an enlarged crosssection on line 4 4, Fig. 2; and Fig. 5, an enlarged longitudinal section on line 5 5, Fig. 2.
My improved lace-string is composed of an inelastic body a and of elastic ends b, secured to such body. The body a is formed of textile tubing and the elastic ends b are formed of solid rubber filaments, which are slipped a short distance into the tubing and are secured thereto by suitable clasps c. Each clasp is preferably made in the form of a ring that embraces the tubing at its junction with the iilament. An indentation c of the clasp forces the tubing inward and into a fold of the rubber and thus insures a very reliable connection. At the outer ends the filaments b may be provided with the usual metal tips d.
In use the shoe A or other article of apparel is laced in the usual manner and then the elastic ends of the filaments b are slipped under the lace-hooks e. These hooks will compress the iilarnents at their point of engagement, Fig. 3, and will in this way securely hold the lace-string in place without requiring any tying of the same. Moreover, the elastic ends of the string will exert a constant strain on its inelastic body, so that the string will be always held perfectly tant from end to end.
What I claim is== 1. A lace string composed of a tubular textile body, elastic ends entering the same, and clasps for securing such ends to the body, substantially as specified.
2. A lace string composed of a tubular textile body, elastic filaments entering the same, indented annular clasps, andof tips secured to the ends of the filaments, substantially as specied. OTTO SOHAMBECK.
