UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
WILLARD G. RICHARDSON, OF LYNN, AND ERNEST W. FORD, OF SALEM, MASSACHUSETTS.
SHOE-FORM.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Feb. 4, 1908.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we WILLARD O. RICHARD- SON and ERNEST W. FORD, citizens of the United States, residing at Lynn and Salem, respectively, in the county of Essex and State of Massachusetts, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Shoe-Forms; and we do. hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact descriptionof the in- .vention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
The present invention relates to an improvement in shoe forms.
Heretofore shoeforms have been more or less imperfect in that they have not fitted the instep of the shoe, which in the case of delicate shoes resulted either in distorting or One of the reasons for this has been the lapping of the fore part portion over the heel part portion ithereby causing a ridge in the surface of the orm.
One of the objects of the invention .is to produce a shoe form in which the surface of the form throughout the shank is continuous, or substantially so, so as to support the instep of a shoe without distortion.
Another object of the invention is to produce an improved means for adjusting the width of the form in the fore part, or heel part,- or both.
-To the above ends the invention consists in a. shoe form hereinafter described and particularly defined in the claims.
In the accompanying drawing illustrating the preferred form of the invention Figure 1 is a side elevation, Fig. 2 a longitudinal sectional elevation and Fig. 3 is a horizontal section'on the lines-a, Fig. 2, of the shoe form. Fig. 4 illustrates the width-adjusting means detached.
The shoe form consists of the fore part 1.
and the heel part 2 of sheet material molded to the shape of the shoe in which the form is tobe use The parts are hinged together by the'rivets 3 in the shank. In order to secure continuity of the surface of the form the'portion of the heel part through which the rivets pjass which unite it to the fore part is offset as shown in Fig. 3 a distance e ual to the thickness of the material used. T us the outer surface of the waist of the form is substantially continuous from." the heel part to fore part. It is immaterial of course, Whether the offset be formed in the heel part or the fore part as this depends solely upon which part extends within the other.
The width-adjusting means comprise two strips of metal 4 and 5 having their ends bent at right angles to their bodies and riveted as at.6 and 7 to the sides of the form. The member 5 is provided with ears 8 which embrace the body of the member 4 when it is thrust in the s are formed between the ears 8 and the bocy of the member 5. screw 9 which is screwed through a screwthreaded hole 10 in the member 5 opposite the ears 8 is used to set the members in adjusted position. IVhen it is desired to change the width of the form the set screw 9 but it is preferred to use two size-adjusting devices, tie one located at the ball of the fore1 part and the other at the breast of the hee The resent invention is not limited to 'the embodnnent herein shown and described as it may be embodied in other and different forms within the scope of the following claims.
1. A shoe form com rising a fore part and a heel part formed of s ieet material and provided with overlapping extremities pivoted together at the waist of the form, one of the pivoted extremities at each side being o'lfs'et to bring the outer surfaces of the parts into substantially -the same plane so that the outer surface of the form is substantially continuous and unbroken at the waist of the form, substantially as described.
2. A shoe form otflexible sheet material provided with a width-adusting device comprising bars attached to t e opposite sides of the form and having overlapping ends, and a binding device rovided with a'set screw for securing the em s otthebars together in adjusted position, substantially as described.
In testimonywhereof we affix our signature, in presence of two witnesses.
