ANKLE-SUPPORT FOR SKATES.
. IZITGIFIGATIQN forming part of Letters Patent No. 323,700, dated August 4, 1885.
Application filed Novembtr 17, 1884. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, ELLwooD G. MAooM- BER, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Portsmouth, in the county of Newport, Rhode Island, have invented an Improvement in Ankle-Supports for Skates, of which the following description,in connection with the accompanying drawings, is a specification, like letters on the drawings representing like parts.
This invention has for its object to provide a new and improved attachment for skates, whereby the said attachment may be readily applied to the ordinary skate to serve as an ankle-support when desired.
Heretofore, so far as my knowledge extends, in all skates provided with ankle-supports some portion of the latter or its locking connection with the former formed a fixed or integral part of the skate, so that the skate and attachment formed parts of a whole, and were thus placedon the market, whereby a skater provided with skates and desiring to use ankle-supports must needs purchase a pair of skates with accompanying ankle-support attachment.
In this my invention the ankle-support attachment is complete in itself, so that a person having a pair of skates, and wishing to use ankle-supports in connection therewith, is required to purchase merely the ankle-supports, which may then be easily and readily applied by him to his skates.
To this end my invention consists, primaril y, of a rod provided at one end with a onepiece metallic leg-band pivoted thereto, and having means to secure its ends together, the said rod having its other end bent substantially at right angles to the main port-ion of said rod, and being provided with a plate removably attached thereto and adapted to be secured to a skate in place of the usual heelplate, substantially as hereinafter fully described, and particularly pointed out in the claims.
Figure 1 shows in perspective an ordinary skate, and illustrates in dotted lines the position of my improved anklesupport attachment when applied. Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the attachment. Figs. 3 and 4 show details of the plate which forms part of my attachment; Fig.5, a detail of the short arm of the rod, to show the groove and cut-away portion, and Fig. 6 a broken detail of the legband, showing the form of the strengtheningplate.
The skate A, with heel-plate B secured to runner O by the screw a, is and may be of any usual or preferred construction, and my improved ankle-s'upport attachment therefor consists of the upright rod D, provided at its upper end with the one-piece metallic legband E, pivoted thereto by means of a screw, 6, which passes through the flattened end of the rod and enters the strengthening-piece e attached to the leg-band E. The face of the strengthening-piece 6 next the flattened end of the rod D is tangential to the curve of the leg-band E,'as shown in Fig. 6, so as to obtain proper arrangement of said leg-band rel ative to the rod. By such arrangement the greater portion of the leg-band is in rear of a line drawn longitudinally through the pivotscrew e,to allow said band to pass around the back of the leg of wearer above the calf, and also to permit it to be rotated on the pivotscrew, so as to be used with either the right or left skate. The leg-band E is provided at or near one of its ends with a headed pin or stud, 2, to engage one of a series of slots, 3, in the other end of the band, and thus lock the ends together. The slots 3 are preferably of the form shown in Fig. 2. The lower end of the rod D is bent at right angles to form the horizontal arm cl, which is provided at its end with the annular groove 4 and cut-away portion 5. The arm is passed through socketlugs h h,depending from the sides of the plate G, as shown in Fig. 4, in such manner that the cut-away portion 5 is passed over the lockingkey 6 in the socket-lug h, (see Figs. 3 and 4,) and the said key brought in line with the annular groove 4 when the rod is raised to a perpendicular to lock the arm (Z and plate G together. The plate G, aside from the socketlugs', is intended to be a duplicate of the heelplate of the skate to which my improved attachment is to be applied, in which case the usual heel-plate, as B, is removed from the' skate, as by removing screw a, Fig. 1, and the plate G, forming part of my attachment, is secured in its place.
I claim- 1. The improved ankle-support attachment IOO for skates which consists of the rod D, provided at its upper end with a one-piece metallic leg-band pivoted to the rod, and having means to secure the ends of said band togcther, the said rod having the arm or bent lower end, and a plate adapted to be secured to the arm of the rod and to be attached to a skate in place of the usual heel-plate, as set forth.
2. The improved anklesupport attachment for skates which consists of the rod D, provided with the one-piece metallic 1eg band pivoted thereto, and having the headed pin and slots, as described, and the strengtheningpiece,the said. rod having the horizontal arm (Z and a plate detachably connected with the arm and adapted to be secured to a skate in lieu of the usual heel-plate, as set forth.
3. The improved attachment for skates which consists of the rod D, provided with a 20 pivoted one-piece metallic leg band, and arm (I, having groove 4: and cutaway portion 5, and the plate G, having the depending socketlugs h h, the socket-lug h containing a lockiligkey, 6, substantially as described. 25
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
