Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Mar. 10, 1914.
Application filed January 12, 1911. Serial No. 602,351.
To all whom it may 0077106771.
Be it known that I, JosErI-i STREETON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Los Angeles, in the county of Los Angeles and State of California, have invented a new and useful Combined Overshoe Jack and Scraper, of which the following is a specification.
The object of this invention is to provide means whereby men, women and children, may conveniently remove and replace their overshoes with maximum ease and convenience, and whereby in the same implement a shoe scraper is provided to clean the overshoe or other foot wear.
The accompanying drawings illustrate the invention.
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a combined overshoe jack and scraper constructed in accordance with this invention. Fig. 2 is a vertical section of the same on line r0 Figs. 3 and 1. Fig. 3 is a plan of the jack. Fig. 4: is a section on line w Figs. 2 and 3.
The plate 1 is provided with a heel receiving recess 2 having oppositely arranged downwardly diverging side walls uniting at the center in a curved section 3 and compris ing two slightly divergent tip sections 5 and two divergent intermediate sections 1. Said plate is provided with a center leg 6 at its heel, and with front legs 7 near its tips; said front legs being equal in length butTfif e front legs are provided with longitudinal grooves 8 and the plate above said grooves is provided with countersunk perforations 9 adapted to accommodate fastening bolts 10. The plate is upbent above the heel leg 6 to form a scraper 11 which extends nearly at right angles to the plate 1, and is consequently rearwardly aslant as shown in Fig. 2 when the legs rest upon the support at the pavement or floor 12 on which the device stands and to which it is secured by the bolts 10.
The scraper blade 11 is spaced apart from the recess 2 by a neck 13 and projects beyond the neck to form the projecting limbs 14:. The plate 1 projects beyond the front legs to form the front tips 15. The plate 1 thus not only serves to form the boot-jack, but also serves as a support for the scraper blade to hold it in a slanting position so as to more nearly approach a position normal to the sole or bottom of the heel to be cleaned; and the fastening bolts 10 pass through the plate between the rear leg 6 and the front leg 7, so that when they are stationed they at once serve to maintain the boot-jack and the scraper rigidly stationary.
The heel leg 6 is a downward extension from the plate 1 and the blade 11 and forms a support for said blade and the rear of the plate and the front legs 7 form downward extensions from the divergent tip sections 5 and the lower ends of said legs are in a common plane divergent from the plane of the plate 1, from which plane the blade extends upward at right angles thereto, thus giving a slant to the plate whereby both elements are brought into proper position for use whenever the appliance is seated on a flat surface and secured by the bolts 10.
In practice the person desiring to remove a muddy overshoe may first clean the same by means of the scraper, and may then without shifting his position catch the heel of the overshoe between the walls of the recess. If it is a large overshoe, it will be clasped by the walls 5; if of an intermediate size, it will be clasped by some parts of the walls 4;; and if of a small size it will be clasped by the part 3. Then the person will draw the heel of the boot out of the overshoe and may then catch the overshoe under the projecting limbs of the scraper blade or under the tips 15 and may then wrench the overshoe off. To replace the overshoe the toe of the boot may first be inserted into the overshoe and then the person may drive the overshoe home on the boot by striking the tip of the overshoe against the leg 7 and may then rest the sole of the overshoe on the scraper blade 11 while drawing the heel of the overshoe up onto the boo-t.
The front tips 15 of the plate are rounded on the under side, and the legs are rounded on the front side so that the toe of the overshoe will not be cut or marred by contact therewith when the overshoe is knocked against the front of the jack to seat the shoe on the boot of the wearer.
By thus combining thescraper blade and the jack plate, and by placing the scraper blade nearest the person using the device, such person will not fail to first clean his overshoes before removing them, whereas if the scraper blade were entirely independent of the jack plate the person would not be so apt to clean his overshoes before re moving them.
I claim 1. The combination with a jack plate comprising two divergent tip sections and an upbent portion forming a blade behind said tip sections, of a rear leg forming a downward extension from and a support for the blade, front legs forming downward extensions from and supports for the divergent sections, and bolts; there being bolt-seats in the divergent sections between the rear leg and the front legs and said bolts being passed through said bolt seats for attachment to a support to hold the sections and the blade rigidly stationary.
2. An overshoe jack comprising a plate provided with a heel receiving recess and downwardly extending legs, two of said legs being grooved and there being orifices in the plate in line with the grooves to accommodate bolts for the purpose of fastening the aok to a support.
In testimony whereof, I have hereunto set my hand at Los Angeles, California this 6th day of January, 1911.
JOSEPH STREETON.
