March 26, 1957 M. FALK ARCH SUPPORT Filed oct. 14. 1954 INV NTOR ORNEY ARCH SUPPORT Melvin Falk, Bronx, N. Y.
Application October 14, 1954, Serial No. 462,164
Claims. (Cl. 36-71) This invention relates to arch supports for shoes and, more particularly, to an arch support insertable into a shoe and having novel anchoring means inhibitingboth lateral movement of the foot relative to the arch support and lateral movement of the arch support relative to the shoe.
Arch supports may be built into shoes or may be separate elements inserted in the shoes. In the latter case, they are generally formed to provide the support required by the user, and are frequently transferable from one shoe to another. They are used to correct such conditions as calcaneal rotation, astragular collapse, metatarsal abductions, scaphoid weakness, cuboidal weakness, and so forth.
lnsertable arch supports used hitherto have been subject to the defect that the foot can slip laterally of the support or the support shift laterally of the shoe. Thus, the effectiveness of the support is effectively reduced, particularly if the support has been designed for individual fit of the foot.
To avoid these difficulties, the invention arch support is molded to the form of the plantar aspect of the foot, extending from the back of the calcaneus to the base of the metatarsus. Protruding from the body of the arch support are four flanges, two along the medial border and two along the lateral border. One of the medial flanges runs forward, approximately three-quarters of the length from the edge subjacent to the anterior portion of the tendo calcaneus. On the postero-superior aspect of the flange is an accessory flange which serves'to augment the action of the first flange and perform new functions. Along the lateral border of the arch support are two flanges. Each arises from the body of the arch support coincident with the calcaneus and the body of the fifth metatarsal bone. These flanges arise almost perpendicularly and their height is determined by the height and shape of the bones. The fourth flange arises at the antero-medial border of the support and reaches forward under the first cuneo-metatarsal joint. The anterior border of the arch support is skived to razor thinness so as to prevent any discomfort from a sudden drop at this border. Cushioning inserts may be provided to elevate portion of the support, particularly the broad medial flange.
The arch support consists of a cover of high-grade leather which is underlaid by foam rubber at the points of elevations. The leather is so that it has a very smooth surface and is of a highly resilient character. Foam rubber forms are employed beneath the cover to support the elevations in the cover. Foam rubber is the preferred material because of its natural durability, flexibility, and resiliency. The leather cover reaches its thickest proportions on the lateral flanges and gradually tapers throughout towards the medial border. The leather is thinnest under those portions where foam rubber is to be added.
The invention arch support gains its multipurposefulness from its flexibility and proper employment of its 2,786,282 Patented Mar. 26, '1957' fice follow the addition of a medial support and also prevent the foot from sliding off the medial support. In this con.- nection, the additional flange also is of value in balancing the foot on the arch support and preventing the lateralv flange from throwing the foot too far medialward.
For an understanding of the invention principles, ref-v erence is made to thev following description of a typical'j embodiment thereof as illustrated in the accompanying-j In the drawing: ;v Fig. 1 is'a'horizontal'sectional view of 'a shoe showing drawing.
the invention arch support inserted therein; and
Fig. 2 is a transverse sectional view, taken on they line 2-2 of Fig. l; and Fig. 3 is a plan view of the' arch support.
Referring to the drawing, theinvention arch support 20 is illustrated as inserted in ashoe 10 having an outer. sole 11, aninner sole 12,medial counter 13, andlateral counter 14.
On the medial side ofbody 21 is an elongated flange' 22 extending substantially three-quarters of the distance from that portion of the support subjacent the anterior portion of the tendo calcaneus to theforward edge 23 ofsupport 20. Immediately to the rear offlange 22 is allange 24.Flanges body 21 and serve both to give support to' the arch and to anchor the latter against movement rela' tive to themedial counter 13.
Afoam rubber pad 25 is placed beneathflange 22 andv the adjacent part ofbody 21 to give support to the arch by elevating these portions of support 2li. The leather of support 2li is thinned at its area of engagement withpad 25, and the pad edges are thinned, to provide smooth junctures ortransition Zones.Pad 25 may be cemented to the undersurface ofarch support 20. y
On the lateral edge ofsupport 20 are two longitudinally spaced tabs orflanges recess 28 therebetween. These flanges extend substantially perpendicu-` larly to body 2l and lie againstlateral counter 14.Flanges recess 28, have the important function ofanchoring support 20 both laterally and longitudinally relative to counter 14. The seflanges counter 14 thus preventing displacement of the arch from the elevation provided by pad 2S.
While a specific embodiment of the invention has been shown and described in detail to illustrate the application of the invention principles, it will be understood that the invention may be embodied otherwise without departing from such principles.
