J. GAVANAGH. METHOD OF MAKING SHOES.

JAMES CAVANAG-H, OF BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS, ASSIGNOR TO UNITED SHOE MACHINERY COMPANY, OF PATERSON, NEW JERSEY, A CORPORATION OF NEW JERSEY.
Original application filed November 8, 1910, Serial No. 591,333. Divided and this application filed July 3,
Specification of Letters Patent.
i Patented Jan. 13, 1914..
1913. Serial No. 777,147.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, JAMES CAVANAGH, a citizen of the United States, residing at Boston, in the county of Suffolk and State of Massachusetts, have invented certain Improvements in Methods of Making Shoes, of which the following description, in connection with the accompanying drawings, is a specification, like reference characters on the drawings indicating like parts in the several figures.
This invention relates to the manufacture of boots and shoes, and particularly to the lasting of shoes and has for its object to pro vide an improved method for securing the shoe upper materials in lasted position particularly about the toeportion of the last, the present application being a division of my application filed on November 8, 1910, Serial No. 591,333, for toe binding apparatus.
In many shoe factories it is now the custom to bind the toe portion of the upper of shoes having channeled or shouldered innersoles, by means of a portion of wire, tape or other strand which is anchored at one side of the toe, passed around the end of theshoe and secured in binding position at the other side, and cut off. The piece of binding material is taken off and thrown away after or immediately before the welt sewing-on operation by which the upper is permanently fastened to the innersole. The quantity of wire or tape consumed in this manner ag regates many dollars worth, as the bin ers when once used and taken off of the shoe are not in condition for reuse, and hence constitute so much waste material. It is also an objection to the use of wire binders when applied in the usual manner that the free end portions of the binder frequently scratch and. damage the adjacent shoes in the same rack.
In the practice of the present invention a binder is employed which is capable of repeated use, and this binder in its preferred form has no loose or projecting ends to scratch or mar the stock, and advantageously it is formed with eyes, eyelets or other means to receive the anchoring tacks, or fastenings w hich secure it to the shoe.
In the practice of the method, in its broadest aspect, this pre-formed binder is moved into binding relation to the upper materials about the end of the shoe by carrying its extremities inwardly over the shoe so as to force said materials snugly a ainst the lip or shoulder of the innersole, an then those parts of the binder,-as the ends, which have been previously formed to receive the tacks or other fastenings are anchored by driving such tacks or fastenings therethrough and into the last. Preferably the means for receiving the anchoring devices are formed at the ends of the binder, but my invention may be practised by 10- cating said means at other points than at the ends. Preferably, also, sald means consists of eyes or eyelets although other forms of receiving means for the fa-stenings may be used on the binder.
The binder may be applied and held under tension while it is anchored by any suitable instrumentalities or by hand, and I have illustrated herein one form of apparatus which is well adapted for such purpose. This apparatus comprises a holder for detachably engaging the two ends of a binder tacks will be driven and, as herein shown,
it will have eyes or eyelets in the rear of said tack receiving eyes and adapted to receive the hooked ends of a cross bar which constitutes the holder that will be slipped out of the rear eyes as soon as the binder is anchored and, with the lever which is pivoted to the holderand is formed for holding engagement with the shoe sole, it will be ready for use in binding another shoe. The tack receiving eyes or eyelets and the holder receiving eyes in the binder will advantageously be formed transverse to each other.
The invention will be better understood from the following description.
In the drawings: Figure 1 is a perspective view of an apparatus, applied to a shoe, by which the method may be practised, together with a form of binder which is suited for use with such apparatus. Fig. 2 is a perspective view of a difierent form of binder which is capable of use under the present method.
In carrying out the method with an apparatus, such as shown in Fig. l, a binder l of wire or any other suitable continuous material may be formed with an eye or eyelet 3 at each end for inter-engagement with the holder 2. Any other formation or arrangement for this purpose may be employed. The holder has a cooperating hooked or other formation at its ends to receive the binder eyes and permit spread or contraction of the binder according to the width of the shoe. The lever 5 which may be pivoted on the holder bar has teeth 6 shaped to engage in the innersole and give a fulcrum point for operation of the lever to draw the holder rearwardly. and tighten the binder. If the binder is to be secured with anchor tacks it will be provided with eyelets 8 which extend transversely to the eyelets 3 in which the holder engages and which will be ositioned by that engagement of the holder in uppight or tack receiving position. After the anchor tacks have been inserted the holder lever is turned forwardly and the holder bar slipped out of its eyes in the binder which latter remains on the shoe until it is no longer needed when it is removed and used over again on another shoe. This use can be repeated many times.
In Fig. 2 is shown a binder comprising a strand of wire or other bendable material 1, having at its ends the eyes or eyelets 3 to receive anchoring tacks, or other suitable fastenings. In applying this binder under the present method the end portions are held by the operators hands, or by any suitable tool or apparatus, and are carried rearwardly over the end of the shoe to force the upper into binding relation to the lip or shoulder of the innersole and, while so held, the anchor tacks or other fastenings are driven through the eyes 3 and the innersole into the wood of the last. It is characteristic of this method that the binder is completely formed, prior to its application to the shoe, with anchor receiving eyes, eyelets or other means which are to be engaged by the tacks or the like, and that such binder is capable of repeated use.
Having explained the nature of this invent-ion and the manner in which it may be employed, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States:
1. The method for use in lasting shoes which consists in moving a binder of bendable material which is imperforable by the fastenings and is provided in both end portions with previously formed means for receiving fastenings into binding relation with the upper materials at the end of a shoe, and inserting fastenings in said means to hold the binder in position.
2. The method for use in lasting shoes which consists in simultaneously moving the free end portions of a bendable binder which is imperforable by the fastenings and is provided with previously formed anchor-receiving eyes over the end of a shoe in engagement with the upper materials, and then inserting fastenings in said eyes to secure the binder in position.
3. The method for use in lasting shoes which consists in moving a bendable binder provided in'its end portions with previously ormed eyes made by bending the material of the binder upon itself, into binding relation with the upper at the end of a shoe, and then inserting fastenings in said eyes to hold the binder in position.
4. The method which consists in forming eyes in the end portions of a bendable strand, lasting the end portion of a shoe upper, moving the said strand over the end of the shoe to force the upper materials against a shoulder on the innersole, and driving fastenings through said eyes to anchor the binder.
5. The method which consists in forming means in the two end portions of a bendable strand to receive anchoring devices, lasting one end of a shoe upper, moving simultaneously the said two end portions of the strand over the end of the shoe to force the upper materials against a shoulder on the innersole, and inserting anchoring. devices through said means to secure the binder in position.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
JAMES CAVANAGH.
