`UNITED STATES PATENT OEEIOE.
HALLEY THOMPSON KAHO, OF SENEcAviLLE, OHIO.
ICE-OREEPER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Application led January 13, 190.6. Serial No. 295.913.
Patented oet. 23, 1906.
To all whom it may concern: e it known that I, HALLEY THoMPso KAHO, a citizen of the United States of America, residing atSenecaville, in the county of Guernsey and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful I m rovements in Ice- Creepers, of which the fol owing is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.
This invention relates to certain new' and useful improvements in ice-creepers; and the invention has for its primary object to provide a novel form of creeper which can be easily and quickly attached to the 'sole4 of a shoe to prevent the wearer of the shoe from' slipping upon ice or smooth surfaces.
Another object of this invention is to provide an ice-creeper which-will be extremely simple ,in construction, strong and durable, comparatively inexpensive tamanufacture, and one which can be easily and quickly attached and detached from a shoe.
With the above and other objects inview the invention consists 1n the novel construe-- plan view of the ice-creeper. Fig. 3 is a' rear edge view of the soleplate of the creeper.
Fig. 4 is a similar view of the locking-plate of the creeper.
To .put my invention into practice, I construct my improved ice-creeper o a soleplate 1 and a locking-plate 2. The sole plate and the locking-plate are preferably cut or sheared from strong and durable sheetmetal and bent to-conform to the desired i shapes. A The sole-plate 1 is formed with two converging straps'3 3 and a' transverse curved strap 4. The intersection of the straps 3 3 forms a lug 5, which 1s bent at right ,angles to the straps 3 3. The transverse strap 4 is formed with lugs 6 6, Which are bent, as at 7 7, similar to the lug The sides ofthe sole-plate are provided with o utwardlyfextending lugs 8 8, these lugs belng bent downwardly, as at 9 9, to grip the ed es yof the sole 10 of the shoe. lTo place the so etransverse strap plate upon a shoe, the plate is moved rearwardly fromthe toe upon the bottom of the sole v10 until the edges of the soley are engaged inthelugs88. i
The locking-plate has its edges provided with lugs 11 11 similar to the lugs 8 8, these lugs bein ada ted to engage the'instep portion of t el so e 10. The one edge 'of the locking-plate is provided with a pivoted lever 12, and pivotally connected to said lever, as at 14, is a bar 15, the Opposite end of said bar being pivotally connected to the 4 of the sole-plate, as at 16'.
The edges of t e locking-plate opposite the pivoted end of the 1ever 12 is sheared or cut and bent to formtwo upwardly-extending'l lugs 17 and 18. y n Figs. 1 vand 2 of the drawings I have Villustrated my improved ice-creeper as in posiamount of movement between the two plates. -When the lever 12 is moved into engagement `with the lugs 17 and 18, the lever rides upon the lug 17 until it engages beneath the lug 18, at which time the pivotal points of the lever 12 and the bar 15'will be 1n lon.
gitudinal alinement with one another, conseuently holding the plates 1 and 2 upon a s oe.
As the lugs 5 and 7 7 protrude downwardly from the sole of the shoe, the wearer of the shoe will be prevented from slipping or fall. ing upon ice or smooth surfaces, and lthese depending lugs may be provided with sharp edges orprongs to engage in the surface withl which they contact.
It is obvious that my improved ice-creeper will be iliade of various sizes to iit various sizes of shoes, and while l have herein described the preferred form oi constructing the ice-creeper it will be noted that various changes may be resorted to as arev permissible by the appended claim.
What I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-`- An ice-creeper consisting of a sole-plate and a locking plate, upwardly extendin lugscarried by said sole-plate and adapte iro to engage the opposite edges of a sole, deto engage said lever to hold it in alinement pending lugs carried by said plate, upwardywith said bar, substantially as described. 1o extending lugs carried by said looking-plate In testimony whereof I afix my signature and adapted to engage the op osite edges of I in the presence of two witnesses.
