COVERING FOR SHOE-RACKS.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented March 20, 1906.
Application filed July 15, 1904. Serial No. 216,754.
ful Improvements in Coverings for Shoe- Racks, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvements in shoe-racks, such as are usedy in shoe-factories for holding fan order of Work in convenient position for an operator, for transportin the shoes from one operator to another, an for exposin the shoes for drying and other puroses. y invention is concerned particuarly with means in connection with such racks for preservingthe shoe on the rack from soiling due either to the' dripping of the shoedressing from the shoes-on an upper to those Vupon a lower tier or from contact with the I accomplish these obsoiled rack itself. jects by mechanism illustrated in the accompanying drawing, wherein the figure is a perspective view of my invention arranged `with a rack.
O is a rack of usual form and dimensions and comprises generally the supporting-posts A and B, the base K, andthe rack-boxes or shelves R. The rack-boxes` R are formed, preferably, of the front and rear 'supportingstrips C and D, the gratings E, and t e ribs P, which serve as partitions for the rack-boxes to separate the shoes supported thereon.
The features constituting my improvement comprise the spring-roller II, which may be conveniently mounted either at the ends or at the rear of the boxes or shelves R. These rollers each carry a covering or protecting member G, which may be of any suitable material, and is provided at its free end with a fastener of any desired form adapted to engage with a convenient partof the rack opposite the roller -such, for example, as the upri hts I or the partitions P, as shown on the irst and secon shelves from the bottom, respectively, or with the front stripy C, as shown on the third shelf, or to pins or other suitable fastening members on these parts, if desired.
i When tan or colored shoes are to be placed upon the rack for the purpose of drying or otherwise, the curtain or covering G may be drawn overv the boxes or shelves and the shoes placed thereupon, whereby said shoes are preserved not only from contact with the soiled rack, but also are protected from the drippin s, if any, from the shoes above. When. t cracks are to be used merely for transportation or for holding black shoes, the
fastener J may be released and the coverings G rolled upon their carriers, and thus themselves preserved from exposure to dirt and dust.
It is obvious that the coverings may be extended over but a part of each shelf, if desired, having their ends in such case secured to the ribs F, whereby the rack may be used simultaneously for a split order of black y and colored shoes.
Many changes may bemade in the construction and relative arrangement of parts without departing from the spirit or scope of my invention.
Having described my invention, what I desire to -secure by Letters Patent and claim 1s-l The combination with a shoe-rack comprising a plurality of ated shelves or boxes, of covering members or said shelves adapted respectively to be extended above and supported by each shelf, whereby articles supportedby each of said covered shelves will rest u on said covering member and be protecte thereby from contact with the shelf means mounted on the perimeters' of said shelves automatically toretract, and to carry, said members, in retracted position, and means to secure the free ends 'of said members when at various degrees of extension,
Signed at Boston this 13th day of July, 1904..
