* WILLIAM II. ALBEn'oF mnnono, MASSACHUSETTS, fAssIGNoa 'ro xoEHLEB, MANU- FACTURING coilIrANsr;or'1\I'A JanI.1ac Ito,` MAssAHUsETTs, A coRroRA'rIoN or cuissa-` GHUsEr'rs i DETAGIIABLE eLEAI This invention relates `to cleatsfor foot-` line 3-3, Fig. 2;
ball shoesand similar footwear. f Eachof the regular players ofthe more y. important football teams usually is supplied with short cleats for use on a dry field, and another with much longer cleats for use on with at least two pairs of shoes, one equipped amuddy field. v Many players, however, are
.1.. not so well suppliedwithshoes, and' inorder to enable such playersto'meet dil'erentplaying conditions detachable cleats have been proposed and have goneinto use to' some extent. VAMost'of these cleats include a body .1.5 molded-aroundfa stud having a'screw threaded shank which is detachably mounted ina metal base anchored to the bottom lof'a shoe.
These cleats are made in different heights or lengths, and a .player canV usey either ashorty 42.0 'cleat or a mud cleat," as he desires.'` These molded cleats, however, are very likely to breakoii" during ya game thus leaving the metal stud exposed.l The presence Vof such f studs ishighlyobjectionable and-involvesan f. unintentional violation` of the rules. v
The *present`v invention is y especially concerned with this problem, and its aimsr to devise a detachablecleat which Vwill be more sturdy. and substantial than prior constructions, and to provide a 'cleat'holder which will 30 `secure the cleat in such a manner that projecting metal parts dangerous to another'player the event that a In the drawing, p Figure 1 is a perspective view of the blot-r tom .of a shoe equipped with cleats embodying this invention;

and
Fig. 5.
Referring first to Figs. 2, 3 and 4, the cleat 2 is of frusto-conical form and preferably is made of a series of 'lifts ofleather cemented the cleat fromtop to bottom and clinched on the bottom of the cleat. n 1v Thisfcleat is mounted in alholder which perspective view of ig.` 6 is asectionalview on the lined-6,
comprises a metal base 4 set into an'aperture f d formed through the* tap, heel lift"v or other vtread member 5 of thel bottom of the shoe.
The base preferablyis'secured to the voutsole 6of the shoe by rivets 7 which extendthrough the bottom member ofthe base.` As clearly shown infthe drawing the base is provided with a relatively deep socket surrounded by a circular flange which is internally screw v threaded. "-An externally threaded collar 8 isscrewed intothis socket and grips the lower part of the cleat 2, the collar being internally tapered to lit `the' tapered base of the cleat.'
Both the cleatsand collars can readilylbej made veryy accurately withoutrexcessive ex- ,pense so that the collar will fit tightly on the lower portion ofthe cleat and secure it rigidly inthe.v base 4 while leaving lthe greater part ofthe cleat projecting beyond the collar and entirely free -efrom it. Notches 9 9 -are formed in the collar at oppositesides thereof to receive a Spanner wrench by means of which the collar may be threaded into or out of the socket inthe base. l l
It will be clear that thisconstruction ywill cleats of one length can ibe quickly substituted zek . securely hol-d either along or short cleat, that ,y
y"for those of another,andthat even if a cleat .9,01 l
Fig. l illustrates a typical arrangement ofthe cleats, although they may be arranged in any suitable manner.
The cleat holder shown in Figs. 5 and 6 is designed to be riveted to the tapheel lift,or other outer tread member of the shoe bottom instead of being secured to the outsole of the shoe. In this construction the base/1 is `provided with ears l() which are punched toreceive rivets l2 by means of which the base is anchored to the tread member 5. This base has an internally threaded socket to receive a collar 8 of the construction shown in Figs; 2, 3 and 4. Thesebase members 4 may be located in and riveted to the tap sole, heel lift, or other tread member, and this member later may be nailed, stitched or otherwise secured to thel bottom of the shoe. Usually .it is preferable to have the lower surface of the cleat project very slightly beyond vthe .inner surface of the collar so that when .the
collar is screwed into the socket it willforce the lower surface of the cleat against the bottom of the socket and thus Icompre the stock slightly. This. compression .assists in locking the collar in place and preventing it from working loose.
Vhile I have herein shown and described preferred embodiments of `my invention, it`
will be understood that the invention may be embodied in other forms without departing from the spirit or scope thereof. For` eX- ample, other forms of tapered cleats may be used, the tapered aperture in the collar 8 being correspondingly shaped to t the outline of the cleat as well ,as to conform to the taper of the base portion' of the cleat.
- Having thus described my. invention, what I desire to claim as new is:
l. 'A device of the character described comprising a' base adapted to be secured to the bottom of a shoe, said base havingy a screw threaded socket therein, a tapered cleat,'and a collar in whichthe lower part of said cleat is held, said collarbeing internally tapered to grip the tapered surface of said cleat while leaving thek greater part of the cleat projecting beyond the collar and being externally screw threadedto screw into saidsocket, the collar being constructed for the application thereto of a tool to screw it into or out of said socket.
' 2. A device of the character described comprising a base adapted to be secured to the bottom of a shoe, said base having a screw threaded socket therein, a tapered cleat having nails extending therethrough from top to bottom and clinched, and a collar externally screw threaded to fit in said socket and inably fastened lin said socket, and a tapered cleat held by said collar, said collar being internally tapered to fit snugly Aaround and grip the base portion of said cleat but leaving the greater portion of the cleat projecting beyond the collar.
'4. In a shoe having a bottom comprising a tread member having an aperture therethrough, a metal base secured to said bottom and provided with a socket surrounded by an internally screw threaded flange located in said aperture, an externally threaded collar removably'tting in said socket, and a tapered cleat held bysaid` collar, said collar being internally tapered to grip the base of said cleat while leaving a considerable portion of thecleat projecting beyond the collar and'having recesses inits outer edge to receive .a tool for screwing it into or out of said socket..
5. A device of the character described comprising a base adapted to be secured in a recess formed in the bottom of a shoe, said base having a screw threaded socket therein, a tapered cleat comprising a plurality of lifts of leatheror the like with metallic fastenings extendingv through said vcleat from top to bottom thereof and clinched to hold said lifts together, a collar internally tapered to grip the tapered surface of said cleat, said collar being externally threaded to screw into said socket and having recesses in the edge thereof toreceive a' toolto screw it into or out of said socket.
6. A detachable cleat construction comprising, in combination, a base adapted to be secured to the bottom of a shoe, a tapered cleat, a collar in which the lower part of said cleat is held, said collar being internally tapered to grip the larger end of the cleat while leaving the greater portion of the cleat projecting beyond the collar, and said collar and base havingV cooperating screw threaded portions for-securing them together and forcing the vbottom face of the cleat against said base to bind the cleat inits operative position.
. 7. In a detachable shoe cleat, a plate having a threaded portion for attachment to the sole of a shoe, av rigid, non-collapsible cleat formed as a cone, v and a threaded locking ring encircling y the cleat and engaged with` the threaded portion of the said plate to secure tile cleat in position upon .the sole of the s oe.
8. A detachable shoe-cleat .formed yas al rigid, non-collapsible cone `and having: attached 'at its base a, metal art whichy embraces the taperin sides o the cone near its base to secure t e parts together in xed. relation, the said metal part constituting the means through which the cleat may be `attached to the sole of a shoe, and. 'whereby the cleat may be detached without disturbing any permanently fixed fasteningmeans.
