SHOE-HORN.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 655,417, dated August 7, 1900.
Application filed November 7, 1899. Serial No. 786,202. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, EGBERT J. RANDALL, a citizen of the United States, residing at Evart, in the county of Osceola and State of Michigan, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Shoe-Horns; and I do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon,which form a part of this specification.
The invention relates generally to shoe horns or spoons which are employed to facilitate the insertion of the foot into the shoe or slipper, and has for its special object to prevent the upper portion-of the back. from turning inwardly down under the pressure of a persons heel while putting it on. This I effect by the means hereinafter described and claimed.
Figure l of the drawings is a perspective View of my shoe-horn, showingits application to a ladys Oxford slipper; Fig. 2, a detail View of the bifurcated or double spoon with its lugs and its linger-pull, and Fig. 3 a detail view of my swinging bail with the lever which I employ to lock or unlock it.
In the drawings,A represents the bail, which is pivoted to swing in front of the heel of the shoe or slipper and is there locked by a yokelever B, to whose crossbar b it is pivoted at its rear ends. By placing the bail in front of the heel and raising the lever upward the bail is locked to the heel, and by pressing the lever downward the bail is loosened and the horn may be removed. I
O is the spoon, which goes'between the per sons heel and that of the shoe, while 0 is the auxiliary spoon, which passes on the outside of the shoe-heel. The spoon O has a curved finger-pull o, as usual, upon the upper end, while the one 0 has the parallel and perforated lugs c c, in which the end of the lever B is fulcrumed. V
The device is used as clearly shown in Fig. 1 of the drawings, the bail being so locked to the heel of the shoe that the horn may be pulled until the shoe or slipper is entirely on the foot without any danger of coming out of the shoe.
Having thus described all that is necessary to a full understanding of myinvention, what I claim as new, and desire to protect by Letters Patent, is-
The'combination with a double-spoon sh0e= horn, of the lever B pivoted to the back of the spoon and the bail A pivoted to the lever, the whole adapted to be used as shown and described, for the purpose set forth.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
EGBERT J. RANDALL. Witnesses:
CHARLES H. Ross, MARY O. DENISON.
