UNITED STATES PATENT OFT-"Ionia OSCAR `STCDDARD, on JACKSON, MICHIGAN.
IMPROVEMENT IN BOOTS AND SHOES.
. Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 59,288, dated October 30, 1866.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, OSCAR STCDDARD, of Jackson, in the county of Jackson and State of Michigan, have invented a new and ImprovedDetachable Heel for Boots and Shoes; and I do hereby declare that the following` is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable others skilled in the art to make and use the same, reference being had to the aocompan ying drawings, forming a part of this speciiication, in which* Figure lis a side sectional view of my invention, taken in the line x x, Fig. 2, Fig. 2, a horizontal section of the same, taken in the line y y, Fig. I, and looking upward.
Similar letters of reference indicate like parts.
This invention consists in constructin g heels for boots and shoes of two parts, one part of which is attached permanently to the boot or shoe, and the other part made separately from the iixed part and provided with catches or fastenings, so arranged that the separatepart may be readily attached to and detached from the xed part, and the detachable parts 4reversed or changed from the shoe or boot of one foot to that of the other, as required, in order to insure the even wear of the heels.
A represents the portion of the heel which is iirmly and permanently attached to the boot or shoe, and is constructed and applied in the usual manner.
The other portion, B, of the heelis made separately or detached from the other portion, but in precisely the same manner, or so as to correspondwith it.
In the upper surface of the portion B of the heel there is secured a metal plate, O, which is let in iiush with said upper surface, and has three hooks, a, attached to it. One of these hooks is shown clearly in Fig. 1, and the position of the three is shown in Fig. 2.
In the under side of the fixed part A of the heel there is also attached a meta-l plate, D, which islet in ush with the under surface of A, and has three oblong slots, b, made in it to receive the hooks a.
The slots b have such aposition in the plate D that the hooks a are allowed to enter the slots b where the portionB is applied, a short distance back of the portion A, and when the hooksv a are thus inserted in the slots b and the portion B shoved forward the front parts of the hook a will catch over the front edges of the slots b, as shown in Fig. 1, and irmly secure B to A.
The portion B is prevented from casually moving back and becoming detached by means of' a spring-catch, E, which is simply a pin, c, attached to an elastic plate, d, tted in the front part of A, the pin c passing down through the front part of the plate D, and ttin g in a hole, c, in the front part of the plate O, as shown clearly in Fig. 1.
The elastic plate (l has a small knob or thumb-piece, f, at its front and at the front side of the heel, and when it is desired to de tach the part B of the heel from the part A, the thumb-piece j' is pressed upward, so as to move the pin c upward and out from the hole e in plate D, and B may then be shoved back and detached from the iixed part A.
Thus it will be seen that when the heel ,of the boot or shoe on one foot becomes worn down at one side the heels (the lower parts B) may be detached and reversedthat is to say, changed so that the part B on the right boot or shoe may be transferred to the left boot or shoe, and the part B on the left boot or shoe transferred to the right boot or shoe, and the parts B thereby made to wear evenly.
I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- Oonstructing the heels of boots and shoes of two parts, A B, the former part, A, being permanently attached or secured to the boot or shoe, and the other part, B, made separately or detached, and secured to A by means of a fastening, .substantially as shown and described.
The above specification of my invention signed by me this 8th day of August, 1866.
