Patented Mar. 18 1941 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE WELT FOR SHOES Application May 4, 1940, Serial No. 333,264
1 Claim.
- Objects of the present invention are to provide welting having a bead to one side of the middle thereof and usable as regular storm welting and adapted to be sewn at the back of the bead and between it and the edge of the wel-ting;
and to provide welting having a weather edge feature and attachable not only to the out-sole but also especially well adapted for sewing onto a shoe like a regular piece of Goodyear welt.
1 Other objects of the invention will appear from the following description at the end of which the invention will be claimed.
Generally stated, the invention consists in a strip of leather longitudinally folded to one side 15 of its center line on itself and secured to place, providing a flat face and an upstanding bead, there being at the fold a wide angle bevel joint of which the apex is an acute angle, and the exposed inclined face of the bead being concave and providing for Goodyear stitching.
The invention also comprises the improvements to be presently described and finally claimed.
In the following description reference will be made to the accompanying drawing forming part 5 hereof and in which,
Figure 1 is a perspective view partly in section illustrating a strip of leather from which the welt embodying features of the invention is made.
Figure 2 is a transverse sectional view illustrating a step in the manufacture of the welt.
Figure 3 is a sectional view illustrating a welt embodying features of the invention.
Figure 4 is a diagrammatic view illustrating a welt of the invention in application to a partially completed shoe; and
Figure 5 is a similar view indicating that the welt has been trimmed and showing an outsole in dotted lines.
Referring to the drawing, and more particularly to Figure 1, I indicates a wide angle groove provided in the hair side of a welt of leather generally rectangular in cross section. The strip of leather is longitudinally folded to one side of its center line on itself and the fold is secured as by pasting or the like. This is indicated in Figure 2 and it results in the provision of an upstanding bead 2 and a hair side flat surface 1. At the fold 5 there is a wide angle beveled joint 3 of which the apex is a comparatively acute angle. The exposed inclined .face 4 of the bead is concave and it not only provides for Goodyear stitching .but also conforms to the surface of the upper of the shoe. The free edge of the fold 5 is shown as rounded as is also the apex 6 of the beveled joint. The welt is produced by the described wide angle grooving and folding and by molding the concave surface 4 and the rounded portions 5 and 6.
Referring to Figure 4 the described welt is shown as attached to a shoe in the same way that a regular Goodyear welt is attached to a shoe.
Referring to' Figure. 5 the outsole is indicated in dotted lines and the welt has been trimmed in the ordinary manner.
From the foregoing description it is clear that the welt may be attached to the outsole so that the welt is capable of use in two ways.
I claim:
A welt for shoes comprising an integral folded leather strip having a relatively thick and blunt marginal edge and a relatively sharp marginal edge and having to one side of substantially its center line a rounded upstanding bead presenting a counter-sunk or concave molding extending from the bead to the sharp edge and providing for regular Goodyear stitching and having on the other side of the center line a flat surface extending to the thick edge and providing regular storm wel'ting, there being between the molding and the upstanding bead portions a closed wide angled miter joint, the wide angle joint and the counter-sunk molding providing the sharp 40 edge.
