CLEAT FOR SPORT SHOES Filed Nov. 12 1926 Fatented May 13, 1930 FFICE A GEORGE L. PIERCE AND HENRY v. EAU, on BROOKLYN, NEW YORK, nssienons T A. G. SPALDING & naos., on NEW YORK, N. Y., A CORPORATION on NEW JERSEY CLEAT FOR SPORT SHOES Application filed Noirember 12, 1926. Serial No. 147,899.
The object of this invention is the provisien of a detachable cleat to be used on shoes for football and other outdoor sports[ These gaines must be played upon fields that are subject to the vagaries of the climate and hcnce it becomes necessary at times to change the type of cleat worn inorder to meetthe various conditions of the playing surface. For this reason as well as to provide for replacement of W0rn cleats, the present invention provides a structure in which the cleats may be quickly removed and replaced.
A further aim is to provide a detachable cleat without in any way weakening the connection between the cleat and the Sole of the shoe. In the present invention this is done by providing the base of the cleat with an ontstanding flange and mounting on the sole a fiange adapted to firmly grip the cleat fiange.
l/Vhile preferred embodiments have been disclosed for purposes of illustration, it Wlll be clear that the structure may be changed without departing from the invention herein set forth.
In the drawings: Fig. 1 is a plan view of a cleat embodyirig the invention;
Fig. 2 is a section on line 22 of Fig. 1. The frusto-conical body 10 of the cleat is formed of molded rubber or other suitable material, and a metallic plate 33 is secured to the base of the cleat and extends beyond the sides thereof to form fastening means.
the inner side of which extend raised chorded flanges 32. The plate 33 attached to the bottom of the cleat is formed of such a.shape and size that it may be set into the ring 31 43 past the flanges 32 and has segmental flanges 34 adapted to engage under the fianges 32 upon rotation of the cleat. An indentation 35 is pressed into each flange 32 and engages an aperture 36 in the underlying flange 34 t0 prevent accidental rotation and disengagement of the parts.
