SOLE PATCH Filed Feb. 12, 1955 Invenfov Patented May 5, 1936 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 1 Claim.
This invention relates to a patch for the sole of a shoe, the general object of the invention being to provide a piece of rubber, leather or the like, preferably rubber or rubber composition adapted to be attached to the sole so as to make the shoe more comfortable to the wearer, reduces wear on that part of the sole which is most subjected to wear, prevents the shoe from running over and will straighten shoes which have become run over.
This invention also consists in certain other features of construction and in the combination and arrangement of several parts, to be hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawing and specifically pointed out in the appended claim.
In describing the invention in detail, reference will be had to the accompanying drawing wherein like characters denote like or corresponding parts throughout the several views, and in which:
Fig. 1 is an elevation of a shoe showing the device of the invention in use thereon.
Fig. 2 is a bottom plan view of the shoe shown in Fig. 1 with the device of the invention attached thereto.
Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the patch.
Fig. 4 is a section on line 44 of Fig. 3.
Fig. 5 is a section on line 5-5 of Fig. 3.
As shown in this drawing, the patch or piece I is of substantially oval shape with its front end more pointed than its rear end and with its outer side 2 of considerable thickness with its edge substantially vertical. The outer face of the patch gradually tapers from this thickened portion to the front and rear ends as shown at 3 and to the inner side edge as shown at 4. The thickened part on its outer face may be scored or roughened as shown at 5 and the inner face or that face which is to be attached to the sole of the shoe is preferably coated with glue as shown at 6 so that 5 the patch'can be readily applied to the sole. The device can be set flush with the edge of the sole or it may be placed on the sole with its outer edge 2 slightly spaced inwardly from the corresponding edge of the sole so that the device will not show. 10 The device may be placed in any position on the sole where needed to keep the shoe from running over but it is preferably placed on that portion which is most subjected to wear.
While I prefer to connect the device with the sole by cement, it may be fastened on with nails, in order that the householder can apply it to the shoe without necessitating his taking the shoe to a shoemaker. When it is to be used on a worn shoe, it is placed over the worn part of the sole.
It is thought from the foregoing description that the advantages and novel features of the invention will be readily apparent.
I claim:
A patch for the sole of a shoe comprising a body of resilient material and of substantial ovalshape with its front end more pointed than its rear end, said body having a relatively thick side portion having a vertical edge, the rest of the body tapering from the thickest portion towards the ends and toward its other side edge, the vertical edge having a curvature more pronounced toward one end than the other, and means for attaching the patch to the sole.
EDWARD G. JONES.
