.~ Peripheral operation and automatically bodily moved shoe support
DEFINITION
Classification: 12/17.2
(under subclass 17) Machines in which peripheral operations are performed on the soles of shoes, and the supports for the shoes being operated upon are bodily translatable and are automatically controlled to present the shoes for the particular operations being performed.
(1) Note. In this subclass are found machines in which the shoe is supported on "an iron man". The support for the shoe is thus termed because its movements are so controlled automatically that the operation performed by the machine is designed to be independent of the skill of the operator.
