' Detacliable Heels, of which the following is a specification.
This invention'relates to means wliereby the wearing portion of a.shoehecl -can be quickly and easil detxched and replaced by another portion withot it ,being necessary to damage the. permanent portion of the heel and Without the use of nails, peg's or other deviccs.
AnOther object of the invention is to provide a simple and hovl means. for locking the detachable portion to the permanent portion ofth heel.
Still another object is to so construc: the
attaching means that there -Will be no vibra-- tion or movement betvveen the fixed and detacliableportions of the heel.
A hirtherfobjt of the invention is to provide means Whereby a l'eather heel inay Whn deifid be replaced by a rubber heel and Whreby a hob nzyiled heel inay be plaCed upon the shoe vvhen desired.
Qther objedts and advantages reside in the detailcnstruction of the invention, Which result in simplicit, econont1, and effi iency, and .which will become more apparent from the following description.
In the following detailed description of the invention reference is had to the accoinpanying drawing which forms a part here of. Like numerals refer to like parts in 2111 views of the drawing and. throughout the description. v
In the drawing:
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a shoeshowing the invention in place.
Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the stationary metal holder which may be attached either to the permanent portion of the heel or to the sole of the shoe.
Fig. 3 is a similar view of a detachable rubber heel.
Fig. 4 is a top plan view of the stationary metal holder.
Figs. 5 and 6 are end and side elevations, respectively, of the same.
Fig. 7 is a detail view of the locking lever.
Fig. 8 is a top plan view of the upper plate as used on rubber heels.
Figs. 9, 10 and 11, areside end and bottoin viewS respectively, of the upper and lower plates combined, as used on the rubber heels.
Fig. 12 is a plan vieW of leather heel.
a detach able Figs. 13, 14, and 15 are end, side and bot tom views respectively of a detachable leather heel carrying hob nails.
Figs. 16 and 17 are a detail end and botployed on leather heels.
Throughout the description the upper part of the heel, shoWn at 22, Will be referred to as the permanent heel and the lower or deatachable part, shbwn at 18, Will be designat'ed simply the heel.
Theinvention comprises a plate 24, Which has the contour of a heel and which is provided with countersunk openings 23 through which it is tacked 'or screwed to the permanent heel 22. The curved edge of the plate 24 is turned inward, as shown at 20, forming a marginal groove 21, the breast'of the plate is left open, as Shown at 25.
At the mid-p0int of the breast 25 the plate 24 is turned upward and formed in a loop 26. A locking lever 29 is secuied on a pivot tom vieWs respectively of the two plates emof the plate 24. Indentations 32 are formed in the face of the loop 26 to each side of the pivot pin 30 to maintain the locking lever 29 in the vertical position. The loop is of resilient material so that it will spread and allow the lever 29 to be forced under the indentations 32 which Will hold the'lever in any desired position. When in place the loop 26 extends upward on the breast of the permanent heel 22, as shown in Fig. 1.
On leather heels, as shown in Figs. 12 to 17 inclusive, two plates 44 and 45 are secured. The plate 44 has a contour and size corresponding to the outline of the inward turned edge 20 of the plate 24, and the plate 45 has a contour and size cOrresponding to the channel 21 of the plate 44, so that the two plates, 44 and 45, Will set snugly into the plate 24. Plates 44 and 45 are provided With holes 42 by means of which the plates are secred to the heel with nails or screws. VVhen in place on a shoe heel the plate 44 is placed against the heel and, since the plate 45 is the largest, a channel 46 Will be formed between the plate 45 and the heel.
T0 place the heel on the permanent heel 22, the locking lever 29 is forced to one side nnder one of the indentations 32. The plate l5 is now slid into the channel 21 nntil firmly in place. lhe locking lever 29 is lorced to the vertical position in which it Will be held by the indentations 32. The heel is now secnrely locked in place. 'Ihe removal of the heel is, of course, the reverse of this process.
lVhen the heels are of rubber, two plates 37 and 34, similar in size and contour to the plates 44 and respectively, are employed. The plate 84 is provided with tongnes which engage in openings 39 in the plate 37 and are bent over, as shown in Fig. 11, to secnre the two plates together. lhe plate 37 is provided with hook shaped projections 38 which are moulded into the rnbber heel, and serve to hold the plates in place. The operation and use of the rnbber heel is similar to the leather heel previously described.
In 18, M and 15, an alternate form ont a leather heel is shown, Which is provided with hob nails 43. This heel is also provided with attachment plates 44 and 45 and is interchangeable with the other heels.
While a specific'loim 01 the improvement has been described and illustrated herein, it is desired and nnderstood that the same may be varied, within the scope of the appended claims, without departing from the spirit of the invention.
Having thns described the invention what I claim and desire secured by Letters Patent is:
1. In a detachable heel a holder, having a marginal channel, adapted to be permanently secnred to a shoe; a plate, having a marginal flange, adapted to be permanenfly secnred to said heel, said flange being aranged t0 engage in said channel and means for holding said fiange in engagementwith said channel, said means comprising a lever pivoted on said holder and engaging the breast o said heel, and resilient projections on said holder or maintaining said lever in any desired position.
In a detachable heel comprising a stationary part and a detachable part, means for locking said detachable part in place comprising a lever pivoted to and arranged to extend below the stationary part of the heel and resiliently mountecl obstrnctions arranged to engage and hold said lever in any desired position.
3. In a detachabie shoe heel having a hclder secnred to the face of the permanent portion of said heel, a loop shaped clamp formed on said holder, and extending upward at the breast of said heel and a lever pivoted in said clamp and arranged to extend below said holder.
l. In a detachabie shoe heel having a holder secnred to the face of the permanent portion of said heel, a resilient loop shaped clamp iormed on said holder at the breast of said heel; a lever pivoted in said clamp and arranged to swing below said holder and projections in said clamp for engaging and holding said lever in position.
5. A look for two part detacl1able shoe heels comprising a resilient U-shaped clamp ar*anged to be secured to one part of said heel; a tongne pivoted between the two sides of said clamp at its one extremity and arranged to engage the other part of said heel at its other extremity and projections in said clamp arranged to be engaged by said tongne to fiex said clamp and hold said tongne in any desired position.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification.
