Application February 17, 1933, Serial No. 657,205
3 Claims.
This invention relates to nonslip cushion pads for shoe counters, to be inserted back of the lining, and of that character having relatively flat disks or other protuberances projecting through the lining for nonslip engagement with the sock and foot, so as to aid in preventing relative vertical movement between the foot and the shoe. The present invention is of the same general nature and has the same fundamental features as shown in my Patent No. 1,900,107, dated March 17, 1933, over which the device of the present application is an improvement.
In mounting the pads in place during manufacture of the shoes holes are punched in the lining of the counter for the reception of the disks of the pad before said lining and the pad are assembled in place. While reasonable accuracy in the positioning of these punched holes may be expected it sometimes happens that they do not exactly line up with the fixed protuberances on the pad, when the latter is made in one piece.
It is therefore one of the objects of the present invention to construct the pad of two coopcrating parts, adjustable relative to each other within certain limits so that the protuberances may properly fit the lining holes regardless of any slight inaccuracies in the positioning of the latter. At the same time the pad retains its continuity from end to end so that no break between the parts is felt.
A further object is to arrange the pad so that a vertical groove is provided centrally of its extent from top to bottom for the reception of 5 the seam on the liner, if such seam be at the center of the shoe as is usually the case. Under such conditions the presence of the groove prevents the seam from protruding into the shoe to the possible discomfort of the wearer.
A further object of the invention is to produce a simple and inexpensive device and yet one which will be exceedingly effective for the purpose for which it is designed.
These objects I accomplish by means of such I? structure and relative arrangement of parts as will fully appear by a perusal of the following specification and claims.
In the drawing similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in the several views:
59 Fig. 1 is a fragmentary perspective outline of a shoe looking toward the counter and showing my improved cushion pad in place.
Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the device detached showing the sections of the pad moved apart from each other slightly.
Fig. 3 is a sectional plan of the pad as mounted in a shoe, taken on a plane centrally of the pad disks.
Fig. 4 is a fragmentary enlarged perspective View of the assembled sections of the pad ,show- 0 ing the lining seam groove formed therebetween.
Referring now more particularly to the .characters of reference on the drawing, the numeral 1 denotes the counter portion of a shoe having the usual lining 2 .on the inside; The nonslip (,l cushion pad which is intended to be placed between the lining and the counter during the manufacture of the shoe, is formed of two separate cooperating parts 3 and 4. These when assembled together have a combined area and Z9 are of such a size as to extend from top to bottom of the counter and around the same from one side to the other of the shoe. The sections are made of soft sponge or similar rubber or equivalent material and are feather edged Z5 and molded so as to be concave in form to conform substantially to the vertical contour of the counter.
The adjacent vertical edges of the pad sections however are not feathered but retain their full 8t) thickness. The front surface of the section 3 is formed along said edge with a depression of a certain Width which forms a back ridge or flange 5. On the other hand the back surface of the section 4 is formed with a similar but narrow de- 55 pression forming a front flange 6 to overlap and cooperate with the flange 5. This construction retains the pad sections in the same plane and permits of a certain lateral and vertical adjustment of the same relative to each other, while maintaining them in closely associated relationship. The fact that the flange 5 is wider than the flange 6 prevents the actual closing of the gap in the front by the cooperation of the flanges and a groove 7 is thus left between the sections from top to bottom, as shown in Fig. 4 for the 4 reception of the central vertical seam 8 of the liner 2.
Projecting forwardly from the pad sections and integral therewith are relatively separated disks 100 or similar protuberances 9 preferably having central depressions 10. The surfaces of the disks and depressions are preferably roughened as indicated so as to have positive nonslipengagement with the sock and foot. The disks as in the pre- 1 05 vious device are intended to project through holes punched in the lining 2 and the construction and arrangement of the pad sections as above described enables said disks to be properly centered in the holes during the assembling of the parts 1 10 so as to positively prevent any wrinkling or stretching of the lining as might otherwise be the case.
To prevent possible slipping of the pad sections from place both sides are preferably formed with a network of fine ribs as indicated at 11. The function and advantages of the nonslip cushion pad have been already set forth in my previous patent above identified and hence it is unnecessary to again set forth these advantages. Such advantages are still obviously obtained, the change being that I have better adapted the pad to the problems met with in the manufacture of shoes. The ribs 11 also add to the resiliency and cushion effect of the pad without having to increase its thickness as a whole.
From the foregoing description it will be readily seen that I have produced such a device as substantially fulfills the objects of the invention as set forth herein.
While this specification sets forth in detail the present and preferred construction of the device, still in practice such deviations from such detail may be resorted to as do not form a departure from the spirit of the invention, as defined by the appended claims.
Having thus described my invention what I claim as new and useful and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. A pad for shoe counters comprising, with a counter and its lining, a resilient pad interposed between the counter and lining, said pad being formed of laterally separate sections overlapped along their adjacent edges whereby the sections may be adjusted relative to each other without becoming disassociated, and heel locking elements on the front face of the sections, the lining being initially provided with holes to receive said elements therethrough.
2. A device as in claim 1, in which the sections at their overlapping ends are formed with opposed flanges arranged to cooperate in overlapping relationship and maintaining the front surface of the sections in a common plane.
3. A pad for shoe counters comprising, with a counter and its lining, a resilient pad interposed between the counter and lining, said pad being formed of laterally separate sections, heel locking elements on the front faces of the sections, the lining being initially orificed to receive and fit about the elements, and adjustably overlapping relatively thin flanges projecting from and flush with the front and back faces of the sections respectively; the back flange of the one section being wider than the front flange of the other section so as to form a vertical groove down the front of the pad irrespective of any sliding adjustment of the flanges laterally of the shoe.
