INTERCHANGEABLE SKATE AND SHOE Original Filed Aug. 30, 1954 INVENTOR ANTON Jormson TTORNEY Reissued Sept. 17, 1935 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE Original No. 1,991,855,
dated February 19, 1935,
Serial No. 742,051, August 30, 1934. Application for reissue April 12, 1935, Serial No. 16,058
19 Claims.
This invention relates to new and useful improvements in an interchangeable skate and shoe.
The invention has for an object the construction of an article as mentioned which is characterized by an arrangement wherein the skate may be removed from the shoe when desired.
Still further, the invention particularly proposes to so construct the combination of shoe and skate that the skate has an offset stud rotatively engaged in a bayonet opening in the shoe bottom for the engagement and disengagement of these parts, and in addition, the skate has a slide support and a catch for coaction with other portions of the shoe for firmly holding the skate in position on the shoe.
More particularly, it is proposed to construct the skate to be connected with a slide support adapted for engagement in a complementary opening extended in from one edge of the sole of the shoe in a manner so that the slide support assumes its operative position when the offset stud previously mentioned is moved to its operative position in the bayonet opening.
Still further the invention proposes the provision of a catch engageable with a portion of the shoe bottom to hold the skate fixed against rotative disengagement as expressed in the previous paragraph.
Still further the invention proposes the construction of a device as mentioned which is simple and durable and which can be manufactured and sold at a reasonable cost.
For further comprehension of the invention and of the objects and advantages thereof, reference will be had to the following description and accompanying "drawing and to the appended claims in which the various novel features of the invention are more particularly set forth.
In the accompanying drawing forming a material part of my disclosure:
Fig. l is a side elevational view of an interchangeable skate and shoe constructed according to this invention.
Fig. 2 is a bottom view of Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the shoe and skate but illustrated with the skate partially disengaged.
Fig. 4 is a, fragmentary enlarged sectional view taken on the line 4-4 of Fig. 2.
Fig. 5 is a fragmentary enlarged sectional view taken on line 55 of Fig. 2.
Fig. 6 is a perspective view of the skate per se.
The interchangeable skate and shoe, according to this invention, comprises a shoe I II having a shoe bottom II comprising a sole portion Ila and a heel portion Ill). The interchangeable skate associated with the shoe comprises a skate knife, blade or runner I2 having a stud I3 attached near its rear end and formed with an 5 offset head or coupling element I4 adapted for rotative engagement in a bayonet opening or socket I5 formed in the heel portion Ilb of the shoe. The bayonet opening I5 comprises an elongated opening I50 longitudinally of the heel 10 and communicating with an interior enlarged opening I5b in such a manner that the stud I4 may be inserted first through the opening I5a into the opening I5b and then rotated to assume a crosswise position as illustrated in Fig. 2. The 5 side walls of the interior opening I5b are covered with metal reinforcing strips I50 and I511. A pair of staples I6 are engaged through the material of the heel portion II b and limit turning of the head I4 to a position in which it is at 20 right angles to the opening I5a.
The skate knife I2 is provided with a bracket I1 intermediate its ends, supporting a slide I8 in the form of a fiat arcuate element. This slide I8 is adapted to engage a receiving opening or 5 socket I9 formed in the sole portion I Ia of the shoe. This receiving opening I9 is of dovetailed construction, that is, it has a restricted lower portion through which the bracket I1 may slide and an enlarged upper portion for receiving the edges of the slide Ill. The opening I9 is reinforced with several metallic plates 20 and 2| arranged at the top and bottom thereof. The construction is such that the slide I8 works against the metallic parts 20 and 2I and not 35 against the leather or other material from which the sole is constructed.
The skate knife I2 is provided with a conventional front post 22. This front post is equipped with a catch 23 adapted to hold the front of the skate upon the front of the sole portion. More particularly, the catch 23 comprises a catch bolt 23a pivotally mounted at the point 24 upon the front rod 22 and formed at the top with a hook portion 23b adapted to engage a receiving opening or socket 25 formed in the front portion of the sole. The lower end of the catch bolt 23a is formed with an undercut portion 23e adapted to engage the front end of a retaining leaf spring 230. This retaining spring is fixed at one end upon the upper portion of the skate knife I2 and normally tends to assume a raised position so as to automatically engage the undercut portion 232 to hold the catch in the operative position.
In Fig. 1, the catch 23 is shown in the operative 55 position with the spring 230 holding it in this position. To move the catch into inoperative position, it is first necessary that the front end of the spring 230 be depressed and then the catch bolt may be pivoted to a position illustrated in Fig. 5 in which it is disengaged from the receiving opening 25. The receiving opening 25 is reinforced with a metallic insert 21. The catch bolt 23 is formed with a central slot 23d so as to be adapted to engage over the front rod 22 of the skate knife.
The operation of the device is as follows: To remove the skate from the shoe, the catch 23 should first be disengaged and then the skate rotated about the stud I3 so as to disengage the slide support 18 from the opening l9 and furthermore, so as to move the head I of the stud to a longitudinal position, in which position it may be removed from the opening l5a.
While I have illustrated and described the preferred embodiment of my invention, it is to be understood that I do not limit myself to the precise construction herein disclosed and the right is reserved to all changes and modifications coming within the scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims.
