Patented pr. 26', 1932 AnEssrn L. nrNToN, or NOEL, MISSOURI SHOE HEEL PROTECTOR Application led March 6,
This invent-ion relates to a shoe heel protector, and more particularly to a device of this character which is especially adapted for use on high heeled shoes worn by women '5 when driving an automobile and has for one of its important objects to provide, in a inanner as hereinafter set forth, a shoe heel protector embodying a `novel construction and arrangement of parts whereby the same may be expeditiously mounted in position on a shoe or removed therefrom, the construction of the device being such as to retain itself in proper position onthe shoe against accidental displacementor disarrangement without the necessity of extraneous securing means.
Other objects of the invention are to provide a heel protector of the character described which will be simple in construction, strong, durable, efficient and reliable in use,
attractive in appearance and which may be manufactured at'low cost.l
All of the foregoing and still further objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent from a study of the following specification, taken in connection with the accompanying drawings wherein like characters of reference designate corresponding parts throughout the several views, and wherein Figure 1 is a view in side elevation showing a protector in accordance with this 1nvention mounted in position on a shoe.
Figure 2 is a view in vertical cross section through the device removed from the shoe i and looking toward the rear thereof.
Figure 3 is a detail view in side elevation of the resilient frame.
Figure 4 is a detail View in bottom plan of the resilient frame.
Referring to the drawings in detail, it will be seen that the reference numeral 1 designates generally a resilient, metallic frame comprising a horizontally disposed, substantially U-shaped portion 2 and an upwardly and rearwardly inclined substantially U- shaped portion 3, the U-shaped portions 2 and 3 being integrally connected at their forward or open ends with each other. Extensions 4 project from the connected ends of the substantially U-shaped portions 2 and 1931. Serial N0. 520,671.'
3 and said extensions termina and then rearwardly directed ATENT OFFICE te in outwardly hooks 5.
An arm 6 depends from the bight portion of the substantially U-shaped portion 2 of the resilient clamp 1 and terminates in a horizontally disposed, forwa foot portion 7.
rdly projecting The frame 1 and the elements 4 to 7, inclusive, are entirely enclosed in a cover which is designated generally by the reference numeral 8, said cover being formed of suitable iexible material and comprising inner and outer plies 9 and 10, respectively. The plies 9 and l0 of the cover 8 are stitched together adjacent the marginal edges of the frame 1 and the elements 4 to 7, inclusive, as indicated at l1. The4 cover 8 extends between the substantially U-shaped p ortions 2 and 3 of the frame 1 and is of a shape conforming substantially to the rear portion of the shoe which is indicated at 12. The entire device is of a shape and size to snugly fit the shoe,
as will be obvious.
In use, the protector is mounted in position on the shoe in the mann trated in Figure 1 of the dra er clearly illuswings in which position the frame l and the extension 4 yieldingly grip the shoe. The 'out-turned hook portions 5 provide means for conveniently spreading the forward ends of the device to facilitate mounting shoe or taking the same off.

on the shoe, as
It is believed that the many advantages of a shoe'heel protector constructed in accordance with' this invention will be readily understood, and although the preferred embodiment of the invention is -as illustrated and described, it'is to be understood that changes in the details of construction may be had which will fall within the sco tion as claimed.
