GEORGE HERMAN LEEF, OF MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA.
RUBBER HEEL-PLATE.
Specification ofLetters Patent.
Patented Dec. 29, 1908.
Application filed June 22, 1908. Serial No. 439,849.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE HERMAN LEEF, a citizen of the United States, residing. at Minneapolis, in the county of Hennepin and State of Minnesota, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Rubber Heel-Plates and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilledin the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
My invention has for its object to provide an improved rubber heel plate especially adapted for use as an attachment to repair heels that are worn away at one side or at the rear and to this end it consists of the novel construction and arrangement of parts hereinafter described and defined in the claim.
In the accompanying drawings which illustrate the invention, like characters indicate like parts throughout the several views.
Referring to the drawings, Figure 1 is a bottom plan view, showing the improved rubber'heel plate applied to the worn side of a heel. Fig. 2 is a fragmentary view in elevation, lookingat the heel and heel plate in the direction of the arrow marked on Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a section taken on the line a x of Fig. 1. Fig. 4 is a view corresponding to Fig. 1, but showing the heel plate applied to the extreme rear portion of the shoe heel. Fig. 5 is a fragmentary view in rear elevation of the heel and heel plate shown in Fig. 4; and Fig. 6 is a section taken on the line on as of Fig. 4.
The numeral 1 indicates the heel of a shoe, which, as shown in Fig. 1, is worn awayat a rear side portion, as shown at 2; and which, in Fig; 4, is shown as worn away at the extreme rear, as indicated at 3.
The rubber heel plate is made up of a body plate 4, which, in cross section, is slightly wedge-shaped, and on its outer face is formed with a multiplicity of semi-spherical integrally cast rubber bearing lugs or projections 5, 6, 7 and 8, which in size decrease in the order named. It will be seen that the lugs 5 project from the outer face of the plate 4 farther than the lugs 6; that the lugs 6 project farther than the lugs 7; and that the lugs 7 project farther than the lugs .8. This gives an extremely resilient heel in which the lugs of difierent size will be compressed, in succession, under increasing weight, until all will bear upon the floor or walk. These lu s also prevent slipping of the heel. The ru "ber heel plate is preferably secured on the beveled or worn surface of the heel by a multiplicity of small brads 9- driven between the various wearing lugs or projections.
' It will, of course, be understood that the heel plate above described is well adapted for application to heels of unworn shoes, in which case the heels should be beveled or cut away at the point where the heel plate is to be a plied.
The heel plate described is of small cost, may be very'quickly and easily applied to any heel and, as already indicated, is especially adapted for use in repairing worn shoe heels.
. What I claim is A rubber heel plate that is wedge-shaped in cross section to fit a beveled portion of the heel. and is provided with a multiplicity of approximately semi-spherical solid wearing lugs of varying diameter and projection, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I affiX my signature in presence of two witnesses.
GEORGE HERMAN LEEF. Witnesses:
MALIE HOEL, HARRY D. KILGORE.
