SHOELHEEI..
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Apr. 8, 1919.
Application mea my 2.o, 191s. serial No. 235,661.
Toall whom t may concern.'
Be it known that I, FRANK WHARTON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Elyria, in the county of Lorain and State of, Ohio, have invented new and useful Improvements in Shoe-Heels, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to shoe heels and aims to provide a heel constructed of rubber or other compressible material which may be easily and readily attached to Aor removed from the shoe.
The primary ob'ect of the invention is to provide a heel of t is character with an auxiliary cushioning means in the form of a raised portion extending beyond the tread surface of the heel, the heel being hollowed out or provided with a cavity upon its upper surface at the rear of the raised portion to permit the latter to yield under pressure and a resilient or compressible stop located within the cavity for contact with the attaching plate or rigid portion of the shoe to yieldingly limit the inward movement of the auxiliary cushion.
Other objects, and advantages of ,the in vention will appear as the following description is read in connection with the accompanying drawings, in Which:-
Figure 1 isfa perspective View of a heel constructed in accordance with the invention;
Fig. 2 is a plan view of the attaching plate;
Fig. 3 is a transverse sectional view showing the plate and heel secured together.
Referring to the drawings in detail, wherein like characters of reference denote corresponding parts. the heel is shown at A and the attaching plate at B The plate may be formed of any suitable material, aluminum being preferred on account of its lightness. The plate B is concaved upon its upper surface and is provided upon itslower surface with a surrounding filangc or tongue 10, the latter being preferably V-shaped in cross section for engagement with the heel A which will be here-v inafter apparent. The plate B is further provided with a plurality of apertures 11 for the passage of nails or other fastening devices, by means of which the said plate may be secured to the heel portion of the shoe.
A heel A which is preferably formed of rubber or other conip'ressible material 1s of the same sizeand shape as the plate B and is provided around its upper edge with a groove 12 which is adapted to receive the tongue l0 to removably secure the heel and plate together. To provide a einst the accidental detachment of the hee the latter is provided upon its upper surface which is concaved as shown, with a hook member 13. Th1s member is adapted to en age a slot 14 formed in the plate B, one e ge ofthe slot being beveled as at 15 to more readily wedge the hook in position.
The hook member isA formed of a strip of metal, having each of its ends bent at 'right angles in opposite directions, one of said ends form the hook 13, while the other end provides an anchor 13A. This latter end is ared outwardly as shown in Fig. 5 so as to more readily embed itself into the material of which the heel is made. The hook member is formed with openings 13B, so that when the said member is molded in the heel, the rubber or other material will enter the said openings and form additional anchoring means.
A particular novel feature of the invention resides in providing an auxiliary cushioning means, which in addition to absorbing the shock or jar due to contact With the surface walked upon also acts to prevent the wearer from slipping. This auxiliary cushioning means includes a raised portion 16 extending beyond the lower tread surface 17 of the heel. The heel is provided upon its upper surface with a cavity or depression 18, the portion 16 forming the lower wall .of this cavity or depression. Concentrically disposed Within the cavity 18 is a stop 19, in the form of a teat or lug, the upper surface of which terminates short of the upper surface of the heel so as to permit the lower wall of the cavity 18 to yield under pressure. v
-The amount of this yielding is limited by the contact of the stop withthe under surface of the plate 13. As the stop 19 is formed of conlpressible material it Will act to gradually check the inward movement of the auxiliary movement and veliminate all shock or jar.
Having described the invention, what is claimed is 1. A shoe heel formed of'colnpressible material and having a cavity or depression in the upper surfacethereoif, a raised portion forming the outer surface ofthe lower wallV of the cavity. Eor depression and extending :,soomo below the lower or tread surface of the lice] end a, solid stop located conentrically wlth- 1n said depression and having' its upper sur- 5 edge of said depression.
- `face disposed below the upper surrounding 2r A shoe heel formed of compressible material and having a cavity or depressiop in the upper surface thereof, n raised portion forming the outer surface of the low er wall of the cavity or depression and extendin 10 below the lower or tread surface of the hee and a solid compressible stop located concentrically within said depression and having its upper surface disposed below the upper surrounding edge' of said depression.
In'testmony, whereof I aix my signature.
