Description

pllnth tutrs lutwt @ffice EVERETT P. RICHARDSON, OF LAWRENCE, MASSACHUSETTS.
Letters Patent No. 65,120, dated lay '28, 1867; antedatcal M'ay 16, 1867.
IMPROVEMENT IN BOOTS AND SHOES.
TO ALL WHOM I'I MAY CONOERN:
Be it known that I, EVERETT P; RioHARDsON, of Lawrence, in the county of Essex, and State of Massan ehusetts, have invented anew and useful improvement in the Manufacture of Boots and Shoes; and I de hereby declare that the following is a'full and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, making a part of this specification.
Figure I is a perspective view of a part of a shoe.
Figure II represents the wire 'from which nails are made.
Figure III represents a barbed nail or peg.
Figure IV represents barbed and corrugated nails with heads.
Myimprovement in the manufacture of boots and shoes relates chieiiyto the attachment of vthe sole to the upper leather, the fastening,f being effected by the use of barbed or serrated nails or pegs, both with and ywithout heads. By this mode of nailing, the parts are closely held together, and on account of the firm hold of the nails in the leather a less number is required, and the sole of a shoel thus fastened is stronger than it is when a close row or series of pegs is used.
In Fig. I both kinds of nails are represented. Those marked A are straight barbed pegs or nails; those marked B are barbed and also provided with heads C. The upper leather Vof the' boot or shoe is seen at D, the sole at E, and the insole at G. Between the two soles is the filling II. When a shoe is to be made by the use ofthe headed nails, as shown in Figs. I and IV, the nails are rst inserted in holes previously punched in the insole Gr, the insole is then laid upon a last faced with iron, the heads of thesnails 'resting upon the iron, which serves as an anvil. The upper leather D is then drawn over and formed around the last, and its edges turned inward upon the points of the nails. A few blows with a. mallet forces the upper leather on to the nails. The outer sole E is then laid upon the points and the sole driven down, causing the nails to enter and hold the upper fast between the two soles. The headed nailsl above referred to max be'ei'ther barbed or corrugated as represented in Fig, IV. The insole may be dispensed with, when desirable, in which ease the nails are first inserted in the uppers, then drawn upon the iron last and the sole driven down upon the nails, as before mentioned. 'Ihe headless barbed or corrugated nails A, Fig. III, are driven in the usual manner, Ventering the outer sole E first, then passing through the upper leather I) and entering the insole G. These nails are usually made of round brass or iron wire, by passing the wire through suitable girooved or serrated steel rollers, or by notching or nicking it upon opposite sides, in any convenient manner, leaving wire in the forni shown in Fig. II, ready to be cut into suitable lengt-lis to form pegs or nails. Instead of uotching the Wire and raising a short'barb, I sometimes prefer to corrugate or slightly bend the Wire back and forth, the central lineor axis of the wire being straight. The pegs or nails may be made of brass, iron, steel, or any other metal that has the requisite strength and stiffness.
lWhat I claim,and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
The system or mode of fastening the soles of boots and shoes, by means of barbed or corrugated nails or pegs, either with or without heads, and driven either from the outside or inside of the boot or shoe, substantially as herein set forth and for the purpose specified.
