SHOE LACE TIP.
(Application filed June 14, 1900.)
(No Model.)

GEORGE L. BENSON, HARRY K. LOGAN, AND JOHN LOGAN, JR., OF
HANNIBAL,
MISSOURI.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N 0. 660,241, dated October 3, 1900- Application filed June 14, 1900- To all whom it may concern."
Be it known that we, GEORGE L. BENSON, HARRY K. LOGAN, and JOHN LOGAN, J r. citizens of the United States, residing at Hannibal, in the county of Marion and State of Mis souri, have invented a new and useful Shoe- Lace Tip, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to shoe-lace tips; and the Object of the same is to provide simple and effective means for securing a tip with reliability without weakening the latter or increasing the expense of the lace to any appreciable degree, particularly in view of the positive character of the attachment and the advantages accruing therefrom.
The invention consists in the construction and arrangement of the several parts, which will be more fully hereinafter described and claimed.
I11 the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective View of a portion of a shoe, showing a lace in connection therewith having the improved tips thereon. Fig. 2 is an enlarged perspec. tive view of a lace extremity with the improved tip partially applied thereto. Fig. 3 is a plan view of the blank from which the tip is formed.
Similar numerals of reference are employed to indicate corresponding parts in the several views.
The numeral 1 designates a shoe-lace extremity, and 2 the improved tip, which consists of a metal plate of substantial rectangular form and having one side edge formed with a plurality of V-shaped notches 3 to provide teeth 4:, having their points extending out equally. The lace extremity is first contracted, as shown by Fig. 1, and the teeth upset transversely over that portion of the plate which lies next to the lace. When the said teeth are upset, they are given an inward curvature and the points thereof bite in to the lace at series of longitudinally-alined places, and when the teeth have thus been arranged the remaining portion of the plate is bent around and incloses the lace end, as in the ordinary manner and clearly shown by Fig. 1. When the tip is completed, the teeth are wholly inclosed and are held in snug engagement with the lace by the opposite side edge Serial No. 20,348. N mod L) portion of the plate firmly bearing thereon, and will be thereby prevented from becoming accidentally loosened. It will be seen that the teeth take into the lace in a direction at right angles to a longitudinal pull on the tip, and hence it will be impossible to withdraw the tip from the lace through the ordinary longitudinal strain exerted thereon in threading the said lace through eyelets or drawing the same around studs.
The improved tip is extremely simple in its construction and arrangement and will be found most effective in overcoming the numerous disadvantages prevalent in the usual forms of lace-tips now in use.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new is 1 1. A shoe-lace tip formed from a rectangular blank having a plurality of fastening-teeth extending completely over one side edge, the opposite side edge being unbroken and straight, combined with a lace extremity into which the said teeth are-rolled in planes at right angles to the direction of the same, the unbroken side edge of the blank covering the toothed edge of the same when the tip is completed and fully incloses the lace extremity.
2; The combination with a lace extremity, of a tip therefor having transversely-extending fastening devices formed exclusively in one side edge which bite into the lace at angles to the length of the latter and inclosed by rolling the remaining portion of the tip in the direction of the same.
3. The combination with a lace extremity,
of a tip therefor having aplurality of fasten- GEORGE L. BENSON. HARRY K. LOGAN. JOHN LOGAN, JR.
