ABSTRACT:
A footwear forming machine wherein a shoe (or other footwear) upper assembly comprising a shoe upper draped about a last and an inner sole at the bottom of the last, is presented to the machine for applying adhesive and wiping of the lasting margin. The machine includes an inner sole support or footrest to receive the shoe upper assembly, means for stretching and forming the upper about the last and means for wiping the upper margin against the inner sole. An adhesive applicator mechanism is provided that include two extruder sections operable to apply adhesive to the bottom of the inner sole respectively near each edge of the toe portion of the shoe upper assembly. The two extruder sections are pivotally adjustable about a pivot point between positions wherein the free ends thereof are positioned closer to one another to accommodate small shoe sizes and wider apart to accommodate larger shoe sizes to permit application of the adhesive close to the edge of the inner sole, the margin thereafter being wiped against the inner sole.
