Description
N.PETERS, FHUTO-LITHOGRAPHER. WASHINGTON, D. C,
@wat @Mita CHARLES EAGER, OF BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS.
Letters Patent No. 102,381', dated April 26, 1870.
IMPROVE!) VENTILATED HORSE-COVER.
The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same.
Beit known that I, CHARLES P. EAGER, of Boston, in the State of Massacl1u'setts, have invented an Improved Ventilated Horse-Cover, of which the following, with the accompanying drawing, is a correct description.
Figure 1 is a side view of the cover on a horse. Figure 2 is a section of the cover on a horse. Figure is a view of my linkand connections. My invention consists of a means for raising a portion of the cover for purposes of ventilation, .and of lowering the same, and of confining the same in position upror down, and of the cover when supplied with -these means.
A constitutes the part of the cover on the sides of the horse.
B, vthe part on'the back.
:cva: is Ian opening between the back or top and sides.
C is a metallic link, with a cross-bar, D.
This link is firmly ,fastened to the upper edge of the side cover by means of a hinge-strap, H, which is riveted to the side cover.
The strap H passes round the lower end of the link C, so that the link will turn freely up and down.
G is an open spring hinge-strap, or clasp, riveted to the lower edge of the top cover.
When the link C is turned up,- its upper end can be forced in between the two leaves of the clasp G, and will there be held tight until released by the hand.
E is a bandor strap, which may be elastic, fastened to the top cover near its middle, and
F is abuckle fastened to the side cover, to which the band E is attached, as desired.
These bands E may pass over the back of the horse without being attached tothe top'cover, and the top cover may be entirely separated from the side covers.
The top cover is made to project over the-upper edges ofthe side covers.
'lhe operation is this: The cover being placed on the horse.,` when ventilation .is desired the links C are' turned up and their tops. forced into the mouths of the clasps G, thus raising the'top cover. At other times, as desired, the links are released from the jaws. of the clasps andv turned down on the back of the horse, when the claspsv are forced to take into their jaws the cross-bars D of the links C, thus holding down the cover on the horses back.
The side covers may be dispensed with, provided the bands pass round the body of the animal, to which bands the hinge-clasps H may.T be fastened, and in this way the, top cover only may be used; or the side cov# er maybe made in strips for this purpose. 'lhe cover may be nsed on the neck as well as body ofthe animal,l
1. The horse-cover when made with adjustable ven- -tilation, substantially as described.
2. The devices, substantially as described, for raising and lowering, in combination with the top and sides of the cover, when arranged to operate as set fort-l1'.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto subscribed -Witnessesz GEORGE R.'EA GER, ABNER J. TOWER.
