Description
`n-itrh .tatre @stent @fitte JOHN W. POST, 0F CASTILE, NEW `YORK.
Letters Patent No. 67,799, dated August 13, 1867.
IMPROVEMENT IN SKATES.
TO ALL WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
Beit known that I,JOIIN W. POST, of Castile, in the county of Wyoming-', and State of New. York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in` Skates; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full and exact description of the same, suihcient to enable others skilled in the art to which my invention appertains to understand and use the saine, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which make part of this specification, and in which- Figure 1 is a plan view of my improved skate, and
Figure 2 a side elevation of the same.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding partsin the two figures.
The nature of my invention consists in providing the under side of the plate of a skate withanl eccentric spring-latch, and in providing the clamps which hold the fore part of the boot with screw-threads, whichlit into lateral sockets at right'angles with the skate-iron, which are provided with female screwthreads,
A, in the drawings, may represent the foot-plate and B the runner ot' a skate, which are securely attached to ca ch other. Forming part of the standard C, and attached to the under side ofthe plate A, are sockets D D, which may be cast, with the plateA and standards C C', in one piece, and which are provide-d with female screw-threads, into which lit the lateral screw ends e'of th'eclnmps E E. I am aware that sockets have been before used to receive the clamps to hold the skate to the boot, but they are tightened by a set-screwand liable to become loose at any moment, if anything should touch the said set-screws, whilst hy'my invention the clamps may be set to suit the boot, when the-pressure exerted against them by the sole of the boot will tend-:to hold them securely in place. Should they wear away, any -one turn of the clamp will tighten them again. F isa springlatch,consisting of the acorn-shapedpart f, pivoted at y to the under side of the plate A, which on each side belges inward, asshown at z', and the lever partfl, 'provided at its under side with aknob or handle, f2. A pin, L, prevents the latch from swinging out further than is necessary to clear the point of the latch from the heel of the boot. The:cross-piece G ofthe plate A is provided on its under side with a notch, g', to receive the lever partf of the springlatch, when the skate issecured to the boot. H is a blunt pin, east in one piece with the plate A and standard C. Heretofore pointed steel points have been used in skates, which had to be made separately and secured to the plate. In fastening thesepoints into the heel this latter is usually spoiled. My blunt point is made at hardly any cost, and fits into a hole prepared in tbeheel of the-boot.
To attach my improved skate, I place the plate A diagonally across the sole of the boot, allowing the fore part of the foot to rest between the clamps E E. I then bring the skate in line with the boot, which clamps E E.` The `pin H passes into the hole in the heel fitted to receive it, and the latch F is turned from the position shown in red lines to the position shown in black lines, the point entering the inner verticalface of the heel, and securely holding the same and preventing it from slipping upwards, 'whilst lateral movement is prevented by the pin H. The latch F cannot move, the lever party"l resting in the notch'g, the side which is not pivoted bearing against the bulging part z' of the .plate A, and the point resting'in the depression `7' of the cross-piece J.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. The foot-plate A, constructed and arranged as shown, with the inclined screw-sockets D cast on its under side, into which sockets the screw-clamps E fit, substantially as described.
2. The eccentric spring-latch F, constructed and operated substantially as described, pivoted to the under -side of the plate A for the purpose set forth. 3. In combination with the eccentric spring-latch F, the blunt pin H, cast in one piece with the p late n,
substantially as and for the purposes described.
The above specification of my improvementin skates signed this 23d day of May, 1867.
