BOOT AND OVERSHOE RACK Filed Aug. 13, 1959 BY flaw W ATTORNEYS Patented July 4., 1961 2,990,960 BOOT AND OVERSHOE RACK Alphonstis W. Rafferty, 1889 Manor Drive, Muskegon,
Mich), assignor of one-half to Henry L; Smith, Muskegon, Mich.
Filed Aug. 13, 1959, Ser. No. 833,630 2 Claims. (Cl. 211-45 This invention relates to a boot and overshoe rack especially suitable for storing wet and dirty boots and overshoes.
During rainy and snowy weather, it is customary for people to done boots and overshoes when walking about outdoors. Upon going indoors the boots and overshoes are removed until the next occasion arises again to go outside. Usually, in most homes and oflice buildings, the wet boots and overshoes are left on the floor or porch or hall near the doorway. Water and mud on the boots and overshoes tend to run off and collect in puddles on the floor. This is an unsightly condition and in many instances a safety hazard. Consequently, there is a need for ways and means for storing boots and overshoes and for preventing Water and mud from collecting on the floor.
An object of this invention is to provide ways and means for storing boots and overshoes.
A specific object of this invention is to provide ways and means for storing overshoes and for receiving water and mud therefrom.
Another specific object of this invention is to provide a boot and overshoe storage rack which prevents water and mud from overshoes placed thereon from collecting on the floor and yet which can be readily and periodically, if necessary, cleaned.
Still another specific object of this invention is to provide a boot and overshoe rack of simple and economical construction.
These and other objects which may appear as this specification proceeds are achieved by this invention which shall be described with reference to the drawings, which drawings form a material part of the disclosure. A brief listing of the drawings follows.
FIG. 1 is a front perspective view of a preferred embodiment of the boot and overshoe rack of this invention, which view shows a boot in position on the rack.
FIG. 2 is a cross sectional View of the boot and overshoe rack of FIG. 1, which view has been taken as along the sectioning plane 22 of FIG. 1.
FIG. 3 is a space divider member of the boot and overshoe rack of FIG. 1.
The drawings disclose a boot and overshoe rack based on the general concept of an open top container having a closed bottom and adapted to receive and hold boots, rubbers, overshoes and the like.
Within this broad concept is a more specific concept of the open top container having a downwardly sloping bottom with a drain outlet in the region of the lowest portion of the bottom and a drain cup aflixed to the bottom of the rack for receiving drippings from boots and the like positioned within the rack.
Another specific concept involved in this invention resides in the open top container having a front wall which, from the top end to the bottom end thereof, slopes inwardly towards the back end of the container. In combination with this concept is another concept of placing the top end of the front wall of the container at a lower elevation than the top end of the back wall of the container whereby boots and overshoes may be placed in the rack, toe downward, with the heel and sole thereof against the back wall and ankle and leg portions thereof against the top end of the front wall.
These and other concepts are present in the preferred embodiment shown in the drawings.
The drawings specifically disclose a boot and overshoe rack 10 comprising an open top container 11, a plurality of divider means 12 and a drain cup '13.
The open top container 11 is a molded plastic, troughlike box having a back wall 15, a front wall 16, side walls 17 and a bottom 18. Theback wall 15 with the rack 10 in normal use position will generally be vertically disposed adjacent a wall and the like. To hang the rack 10 on the wall, the back wall 15 is provided in the region of each side thereof and near the top thereof with an eyelet opening 19 for receiving a fastener such as, for example, a nail or screw extending outwardly from the wall on which the rackltl is to be hung.
The front wall 16, spaced forwardly from the back wall 15, slopes inwardly towards the back wall 15 from the top end of the front wall 16 to the bottom end thereof. In addition, the top end of the front wall 16 is at a lower elevation than the top end of the back wall 15.
In the region of the top end of the back wall 15 are a plurality of inwardly protruding embossments 21. In the region of the top end of the front wall 16 there are also provided a plurality of inwardly protruding embossments 22. In the embodiment shown, the embossments are actually integral parts of the respective walls. The embossments 21 are spaced from one another from one side of the back wall 15 to the other side. The embossments 22 of the front wall 16 are similarly positioned and in alignment with the opposite, corresponding embossment 21 of the back wall 15. Each embossment 21 and 22 has an open top hole 23 therein for receiving a corre-' sponding end of a divider means 12.
As best shown in FIG. 3, each divider means 12 com prises a wirelike rod 24 having at each end thereof a downwardly extending end portion 25. Each end portion is intended to be inserted into the hole 23 in each embossment 21 and 22. The wire rod 24 is intended to span the gap between oppositely disposed embossments 21 and 22 and thereby functionally divide the open top container 11 into a plurality of boot and overshoe receiving spaces or compartments 26. Preferably, the length of the wire rod 24 is sufficient to enable the end portions 25 to just be seated in the hole 23 of the oppositely disposed receptacle members 21 and 22 without a load being placed on the front wall 16. Hence, not only do the rods 24 function to divide the open top container into the shoe receiving spaces 26, but also to support and reinforce the front wall 16.
The bottom 18 of the open top container 11 slopes downwardly towards the center of the container 11 from each of the side walls 17. At the center region of the bottom 18 there is provided a drain opening 28 through the bottom 18. Extending downwardly from the bottom 18 and surrounding the drain opening 28 is a drain spout wall 29. At the bottom end of the drain spout wall 29 and about the outer perimeter thereof there is provided an outwardly extending bead 30.
The drain cup 13 is a molded plastic, cuplike receptacle adapted to be removably mounted to the bottom end of the drain spout Wall 29. It is so adapted by means of an inwardly extending rim portion 3 1 at the open top thereof. The slight elasticity of the material of construction of'the drain cup 13 is sufficient to enable the drain cup 13 to be mounted by snap action on the bottom end of the drain spout wall 29 with the inwardly extending rim portion 31 seated on top of the bead portion 30.
To assemble the rack 10, the divider rods 12 are placed into position with the ends 25 seated in the holes 23 of the embossments 21 and 22. The drain cup 13' is mounted on the bottom end of the drain spout wall 29. The rack is then hung on fasteners through the eyelets 19.
To use the rack 10 boots and overshoes are simply placed into the shoe receiving spaces 26. Preferably, in the case of boots and overshoes, the shoe is placed toe down with the heel and sole against the back wall and with the front of the shoe top resting on the top end of the front wall 16. This is indicated by the illustration of -a boot 33 in the drawings. In this position, dirt and water from the boot can drip down into the bottom of the container 11. Water and mud on the bottom 18 of the container run down through the drain opening 28 and into the drain cup 13. Periodically or whenever the drain cup 13 becomes full, the same may be demounted from the end of the drain spout wall 29, dumped, washed out and then remounted.
Thus, there is provided a boot and overshoe rack of simple construction and of economic construction. It can be made from readily available materials. Plastic materials are especially suitable. In this regard, polyethylene, polypropylene and polyesters unreinforced or reinforced with such reinforcement materials as fiber glass, for example, are satisfactory.
A feature of advantage of the boot and overshoe rack of this invention is the fact that moisture and mud from boots and overshoes placed therein are prevented from reaching the floor. Still another feature of advantage of this invention is the ready cleanability of such.
These and other advantages and other embodiments will be apparent to those in the exercise of ordinary skill in the art upon reading the foregoing specification. Thus, only one divider -12 may be used whereby the rack may be suitable only for one pair of shoes. On the other hand, more than two pairs of spaces 26 may be provided. In such case, the spacing between the dividers may vary so that, for example, one pair of compartments or spaces 26 is suitable for a pair of childrens boots and another pair of spaces or compartments 26 is suitable for a pair of adult boots.
Since this invention may be embodied in several forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics thereof, the preceding description is intended to be illustrative and not restrictive since the scope of the invention is defined by the claims rather than by the description preceding them and all embodiments which fall within the metes and bounds of the claims are intended to be embraced thereby unless the claims expressly state otherwise.
