I G. A. TAYLOR HEEL FOR LADIES SHOES March 14, 1933.
Filed March 20, 1931 INVENT JZ Gordon (K Bylaw" Patented Mar. 14, 1933 maria GORDON TAYLOR, OF CAMDEN, NEW JERSEY V EEL non LADIES snons Application filed March 20, 1931. Serial 1%. 524,036.
My invention relates to new and useful improvements in heels for ladies shoes and has for its object to provide exceedingly simple and effective devices for detachably v securing a wooden heel to a shoe in such manner that the grain of the wood of the heel will run vertically.
A further object of the invention is to house in the upper portion of the wooden heel in such manner that any tendency to split would be overcome.
A further object of the invention is to provide for the securem-ent of a top lift to the lower end of the heel in such mannerv that it will be properly centered upon the heel to conform to the contour of the latter at the point of attachment.
A further object of the invention is to so construct all the parts comprising the complete heel that said parts throughout will be interchangeable in order that any of said parts may be readily replaced when desir able.
A still further object of the invention is to so form the wooden portion of the heel that it does not require what is termed in:
the trade as scouring.
With these and other ends in view, this invention consists in the details of construction and combination of elements hereinafter set forth and then specifically designated by the claims.
In order that those skilled in the art to which this invention appertains may understand how to make and use the same, I will describe its construction in detail, referring by numerals to the accompanying drawing forming a part of this application, in 40 9 I Flg. 1 1s a side elevation of an assembled heel made in accordance with my improvements.
Fig. 2 is a bottomplan view of an attaching member.
Fig. 3 is a detail view of the anchor bolt.
Fig. 4 is a perspective of the wooden portion of the heel partly broken away to clearly illustrate the anchor bolt running there- 50 through.
Fig. 5 is a detail bottom plan view of the top lift showing the sleevenut in position.
Fig. 6 is a central vertical section of the completed heel, a portion of the shoe to which it is attached outlined in dottedlines.
Fig. 7 is a section on the line 77 of Fig. 2.
In carrying out my invention as herein embodied, 10 represents the attaching member which is made of metal, preferably aluminum, and this member has its upper surface concave to fit the undersurface ofthe heel portion of the sole of a shoe'as shown in Fig.
6, and a series of holes" 11 are formedthrough this plate in order that clinch nails 12 may be'driven-through these holes and through the soleof the shoe and clinchedupon the upper side of said sole, thereby securely and permanently holding the attaching member in place. I i 18 represents afiange which is cast with the attaching, member and extends inthe general shape of a horse-shoe around the holes 11 and this flange serves the important purpose of housing-in the upper portion of the wooden heel 1% when the upper surface of said heel is seated upon the attaching member; that porti'onof the attaching inember within the flange having a fiat surface against which the upper portion of said heel snugly fits. v v j .80. 15 represents a button hole slot formedin the attaching member for the: purpose hereinafter set forth. 1
The wooden heel 14 hasa hole formed lengthwisetherethrough and in this hole is 5 inserted the anchor bolt16, the head 17 of which latter is adapted to pass through the enlarged portion ofthe button hole slot 15 and he slid into the contracted portion of this slot,'the side walls of said contracted portion being beveled to correspond to the bevel of the underside of the head 17, the lower portion of the bolt being threaded to receive the setting up nut 18 and alsothe sleeve nut 19 so that when the head of the bolt has been slid into the contracted portion of the button hole slot, the setting up of the nut 18 will securely hold the wooden heel in position against the attaching member, said heel being held against any lateral dislot placement by the flange 13 as will be readily understood.
represents the top lift which is circular and has a counter sunk hole through the center thereof and this top lift is held in place by the sleeve nut 19 being run upon the anchor bolt sufficiently to embed the head of this sleeve nut into the top lift.
From the foregoing description, the operation and assemblage of my improved heel will be obviously asfollows, the attaching member being secured to the heel portion of the shoe by clinch nailing the same to said shoe, the head of the anchor: bolt is inserted in the button hole slot, the setting up nut being backed off sufliciently to permit the ready insertion of the head, then the wooden heel is slid forward until its upper portion passes Within the flange 13 after which the set-up nut is screwed upward sufficiently to draw the heel tightly against the attaching member, and thereafter the top lift is set in place and the sleeve nut driven home, it being understood that the attaching plate and the Wooden heel have previously been covered with leather, the practice being to cement such leather to these parts.
As this wooden heel has no flat breast, the application of the leather thereto is greatly facilitated. Heretofore where wooden heels have been used the grain has'beencrosswise' of the heel for the reason that if the grain were lengthwise, the heel would split by the constant jar and pressure exerted thereon in walking but by the use of the flange forming fl'llOUSBd-lll seat for the upper end of the wooden heel this tendency to split is entirely overcome and a cheaper and much more desirable heel is produced by forming said heel with the grain lengthwise thereof.
In practice, should any portion of my im- 1 proved device becomeworn or from any other cause need repair, it is only necessary to remove the top lift and substitute another therefor or remove the wooden heel and sub stitute another for this portion of the device, and likewise the anchor bolt and the nuts coacting therewith may be removed and others substituted therefor.
Of course I do not wish to be limited to the exact details of construction as herein shown, as these may be varied within the limits of the appended claims without departing from the spirit of my invention.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new and useful is 1. I11 a shoe heel, a metal attaching member adapted for permanent securement to the heel portion of a shoe, a flange formed around a portion of said member, a wooden heel, the upper portion of which is adapted to fit and be housed in said flange, an anchor bolt passing through the wooden heel lengthwise thereof, said bolt having a beveled head for engagement with the contracted portion of a button hole slot formed in the attachingmember, a setting up nut threaded upon the lower portion of the anchor bolt whereby the Wood-end heel is held in place and a sleeve nut threaded upon the lower end of said bolt whereby a top lift may be secured to the bottom of the heel.
2. In a device of the character described, an attaching member having its upper surface concave for snug contact against the heel portion'of'a shoe and having a button hole slot formedtherein, the side Walls of the contracted portion of the slot being beveled, a flange formed with the attaching member, a wooden heel, the upper end of which is adapted to fit within and be housed by said flange, and means for coa'cting with the bevel walls of the button hole slot for securing the wooden heel in place; a
3; In a device of the character described, a wooden heel having the grain running vertical thereof, an attaching member for securement to the heel portion of a shoe, a flange formed with said member for housingin the upper end of the wooden heel, and means for attaching said heel to said member.
