JOHN MORRISON HUNTER., OF ,MORRISTOWN NEW JERSEY.
Letters Patent No. 78,970, 4lated June 16, i868:
IMPROVED SOLES FOR BOOTS, die.
dlp tlphals maar ta` in that ttttets ateut mit mating aart tf ligature.
TO ALL WHOMIT MAY OONCERN:
Be it known that` vI, JOHN MORRISON HUN'rER, of Morristown, in the county of B Iorris, and State ot New Jersey, have invented 'certain new and useful Improvements in Soles for Boots and Shoes; and Ido hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accom-v panying drawings, making a portion of this specihcation, in which- Y Figure 1 is a vertical longitudinal section of a boot'or shoe made according to my invention. Figure 2 is 4a plan view of the same. Figure 3 is an edge view of the s ame.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figures.
This invcntionconsists in a novel construction of a-sole for boots and shoes, whereby the same is not only rendered capable of resisting wear and abrasion, but is also made very light and elastic, and, furthermore, a non-conductor of heat to a. much greater degree than is the case with the soles hitherto infuse.
'.lo enable others to understand the nature and construction of my invention, I will proceed to describe it. with reference to the drawings.
A. represents a piece or plate of sheet metal, corresponding circumferentially with the outline of the forward portion of th sole to be formed or provided upon tho boot or shoe, and having formed in one therewith the shank A*, this plate being preferably indented at its upper side, so that projections, a', arc formed upon the lower surface ot' the same.
The plate A is designed to constitute the' wearing-surface of the sole; and secured at the rcai` end of the' shank A* thereof isa shectsteel heel-shell, B, of the shape desired inthe heel of the boot or shoe. The circumferential edgesof thep-latc A and its shank A* are turned upward nearly or quite at right angles thereto, and are shaped or divided into spurs orlips, a, the ofiice of which `will presently herein appear. The correspending upper edge of the shell B is,in like manner, formed with -spurs or lips, designed to serve asimilar purpose. Placed in the bottom of the .shell B is a thickness, 6*, of'any suitable water-proof material, andai: the rear end thereof is a-semicircular piece, C, of 'steelty A thick'layer, D, of cork is then placed in the shell, -to constitute the filling thereof. Placed upon the sheetiinetal plato A is a thickness, fl, of water-proof material, upon which is laida layer or thickness, c, of felt, or equivalent `non-conductor of heat; and-above this is a layer,f, of cork, the edges oi which are surrounded by the leatheru strip E; Placed upon the shank Ai* of the metallic plate'A is a piece, 3*, of leather, which, when desired, may be substitutedby .two lateral strips ofthe same material. Arranged circumferentially above the layer of cork in the shell B is a leathern strip, 0*. The several parts being thus arranged, the spurs'or lips a of theplato A, and the shank together with those, b, of the heel-shell B, are turned over thecontiguon's edges of the strip E, pieecBi, and strip C, respectively, thus firmly .securing the whole together to form the sole, which being donc, the sole itself may be attached to the shoe by sowing or stitching the edges of the strips E C* and piece B* to the welt thereof.
It will be noticed that not only does the sheet nietal provided upon the surface of the sole, in the manner described, preserve the same from wear and abrasionjbut that the necessity of employing any material quantity of leather, such as the ordinary sole, is wholly `dispensed vwith',"while, from the nature aud disposition of the materials employed, the sole, as thus made, is rendered much more impervious to water, and, at the same time,
a less conductor of heat than such ordinary sole. lurthermore, it should be m'entioned that, in ease the corner" at the rear end oi` the shell B, forming the heel, ashereinbcfore described, should become worn through, the
scmicircnlar steel piece C Vwill still resist any abrasive action exerted thereon, and thus preserve the heel in effective condition.
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is--.v 1. The sheet-metal outer sole A, A*, B, constructed with spurs or lipsya'b, around `its edge, for attachment to the booter shoe, in the manner substantially as shown and described.r l
2. The combination of the sheet-metal solo A B, constructed, as described, the cork tread and heel-filling fD, and leather strips E C2", with the welt of the boot or shoe, all arranged substantially as 'shown and specied.
