Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented May 5, 1914:.
Application filed June 1, 1912. Serial No. 701,058. 1
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, Aaron D. BOSTWIOK,
citizen of the 'United States, residing at Cheyenne, in the county of Laramie and State of \Vyoming, have invented certain new and useful Improvements'in Tying Devices, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the ac companying drawing.
This invention relates to a tying device, and the principal object of the same is the provision of a shoe string catch which is adapted to be placed in engagement with the port-ions of a shoe for eiiiciently gripping the shoe string for holding the same in its correct position.
Another object of this invention is the provision of a shoe string clamp which is provided with a kink constituting a pocket portion which is adapted to receive a shoe string for holding the same in position.
lVith these and other objects in view this invention consists of certain novel combinations, constructions and arrangements of parts as will be hereinafter fully described and claimed.
1n the accompanying drawing :Figure 1 is a perspective view of the catch showing the same carried by the upper of a shoe, and illustrating how the same is adapted to be used. Fig. 2 is a fragmentary sectional view of a portion of the shoe showing the catch in elevation. Fig. 3 is a side elevation of the catch showing the same detached.
Referring to the accompanying drawing by numerals 1 indicates the upper of a shoe having the usual eyelet 2. The catch is adapted to be placed in engagement with the upper for securing the free ends of the shoe string. Each catch is formed from a strand of resilient wireand is bent so as to form a. plurality of convolutions 3, 4c, and 5. This wire or strand extends in the same direction throughout its entire length and will allow the catch to be placed in engagement with the upper 1' of the shoe by threading the convolution 3 through the'eyelet 2 so as to allow this convolution 3 to engage the inner portion of the upper 1 while the convolution t will form a binding engagement with the outer surface of the upperl, thereby securely supporting the catch in position upon the upper 1. Since the strand is formed to constitute a plurality of convolutions it will be seen that the convolution 3 may be easily placed within the shoe as above described, as all uneven surfaces in the construction of the catch are eliminated. The outer or upper convolution 5 is provided with a kink 6 con stituting a pocket 7. This convolution 5 contacts with the convolution 4 so as to efliciently bind the shoe string 8 while the shoe string will restwithin the pocket? thereby preventing the same from accidental disengagement with the catch. These convolutions normally contact as shown in Fig. 3, but the convolution 3 will, of course, be moved from the convolution l when the catch is placed in engagement with the upper 1 of the shoe.
From the foregoing description it will be seen that a simple and eflicient shoe string catch has been produced which may be eas ily placed in engagement with the shoe for carrying or retaining free ends of the shoe string, and it will also be seen that a number of these catches will be placed in engagement with the upper of a shoe as disclosed in Fig. 1.
What is claimed, is
A shoe string catch of the class described formed from a strand of resilient wire coiled to form three contacting convolutions, said strand being coiled in the same direction throughout its entire length, one of said convolutions adapted to be threaded through an eye formed in a shoe whereby the convolution within the shoe and the adjacent convolution upon the outer portion will firmly engage the shoe for holding the catch in position,'the last mentioned convolution and the third convolution providing a shoe string clamp, one of the convolutions being provided with a kink forming a pocket between said convolutions adapted to receive the shoe string whereby the shoe string will be prevented from slipping.
In testimony whereof I hereunto aflix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
AMON D. BOSTWIOK.
