FREDERICK A. SALAMAN, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.,
TO FRANK HAHN,
ASSIGNOR OF ONE-H ALF OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
SHOE soLs AND HEEL.
SPECIFICATION 'forming part of Letters Patent No. 738,735, dated September 8, 1903. Application filed May 4,1903. Serial No. 155,529. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be itknown that LFREDERIOK A. SALAMAN, a citizen of the United States, residing at New York, in the county of New York, State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Shoe Soles and Heels, of which the following is a description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and i to the figures ofreference marked thereon.
My invention relates to soles and heels for shoes, and is intended to provide a simple, strong, durable, and inexpensiveconstruction adapted for use as a sole orheel capable of being readily secured in place by any one without the necessity for special skill or experience in shoemaking.
With this purpose in View my invention consists in the construction described hereinparticularly pointed out in the claims. 7
Referring to the drawings, Figure l is a invention as applied to a shoe-sole. Fig. 2 is a cross-sectional view on line a a of Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a cross-sectional view on line b b of Fig. 1. Fig. 4 shows the invention applied to a heel of the rotary type.
Fig. 5 isa cross-sectional view on line 0 c of Fig. 4, and Figs. 6 and 7 are respectively a plan and cross-sectional view showing my invention applied to a heel of ordinary form.
In the drawings, 1 represents a metallic plate of malleable metal capable of being curved to the shape proper for a shoe-sole and of sufficient stiffness to retain the shape given to it. To this plate strips or pieces 2 of sole-leather are secured by rivets 3, the
strips or pieces being preferably recessed sufficiently to permit the upper surface of the plate 1 to be flush with the surface of the portion of the strips or pieces which extends beyond the plate.
The strips or pieces 2 may be of any convenient form and may consist of scraps of soleleather, which would otherwise be of no practicalvalue. As shown, these strips are of sufiicient length to extend across the entire width of the sole; but they may be of less length, if found desirable.
Theconstruction as shown in Figs. 1 to 3, inclusive, and Figs. 6
and 7 is intended to be.
sold to be applied as a sole-tap or heel-lift by screws through the holes 4 the outer edges of the strips or pieces 2 may be trimmed to the size desired. The plate being embedded in the leather, the portions of the leather outside the lines of the joint with the sole of sole-tap is applied.
' In the construction shown in Figs. 4 and-5 the plate 1 has secured to it the strips or pieces 2, the plate being, as in the construction shown in Figs. 1 to 3 and 6 and 7, embodied in the leather. I have shown the invention in Figs. a and 5 as applied to a rotary heel, having a central recess formed through the leather strips orpieces 2, in which is received the head of a screw 5, which bears against the plate 1, in which is formed an opening 6, through which the screw passes into the main portions of the heel. The main portion of the heel is preferably provided with a metal plate 7, against which the plate 1 lies. To this plate 7 is preferably secured on the forward edge of the heel a strip 8 of leather cut out to receive the periphery of the rotary heel. The head of the screw-5 is flush with the outer surface of the strips or pieces 2 and is preferably provided with a plurality of radial grooves 9 to receive a screw-driver or other tool, the angular portions 10 between these grooves serving to protect the wearer of the shoe against slipping.
The plate is preferably provided with projection 11, formed by perforating it with a pointed punch, so as to leave roughe-dges or burs, which are embedded in the strips or pieces 2. The metallic plate 1, as above described, being curved or dished to the proper form to fit the foot and being sufficiently stifi to preserve this form when in use,serves to bring the sole, of'the shoe towhich it is applied to its proper shape without the nerco cessity for relasting and prevents the shoesolo from getting out of shape in use. By
plate will make a tight the shoe to which the 6 arate strips or pieces of leather, a firmer hold is afforded than is afiorded by a sole or heel of a single piece of leather, and as a further means'of thus avoiding danger of slipping the contiguous edges of the strips or pieces 2 may be slightly beveled or rounded.
When any portion of the sole becomes worn 1 out, the worn strip may be readily removed; and a new strip substituted, so that the en- 1 tire sole need not be discarded because one portion of it is worn.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim, and desire ent, is
1. In a construction adapted for use as a sole or heel for shoes, a metallic plate shaped to fit the tread-surface of a shoe and strips or pieces of leather secured to the metallic plate, the plate being'embedded in the leather strips or pieces, substantially as described.
2. In a construction adapted for use as a sole or heel for shoes, a metallic plate of less held firmly in place while to secure by Letters Pat- 1 area than the tread portion of theshoe; strips or pieces of leather secured to the metallic plate and extending beyond the lines of the metallic plate, the metallic plate being embedded in the leather strips or pieces so that its surface is flush with the surface of ,the portions of theleather strips or pieces beyond the lines of the metallic plate; substantially as described.
3. In a construction adapted for use as a sole or heel for shoes, a metallic plate of less area than the tread portion of the shoe strips or pieces of leather secured to the metallic plate and extending beyond the lines'of the metallic plate, the metallic plate being embedded in the leather strips or pieces so that its surface is flush with the surface of the portions of the leather strips or pieces beyond the lines of the metallic plate and means for deta'cha-bly securing the plate to the shoe; substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I afifi-x my signature in presence of two witnesses.
FRED. A. SALAMAN.
