UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
WILLIAM B. HARRELL, 0F BALDWIN, FLORIDA.
CUSHION-SHOE FOR HORSES.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, WILLIAM B. HARRELL, a citizen of the United States, residing at Baldwin, in the county of Duval and State of Florida, have invented new and useful Improvements in Cushion-Shoes for Horses, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to cushion shoes for horses,.the object of the invention being to provide a shoe which is adapted to be applied to the hoof as a substitute for the well known form of metal shoe.
Another object of the invention is to provide an antislipping shoe which will prevent the animal from slipping when traveling over icy surfaces.
A still further object of the invention is to provide a reinforcement for the shoe to prevent the accidental tearing of the same when in use.
Another object of the invention is to provide a shoe in which a part thereof will form a cushion for the frog of the hoof.
In the drawing, forming a portion of this specification and in which like numerals of reference indicate similar parts in the several views: Figure 1 is a perspective view of the shoe showing the application of the same to the hoof. Fig. 2 is a vertical section therethrough. Fig. 3 is a bottom plan view thereof. Fig. 4 is a perspective view of the reinforcing member.
The cushion shoe 1 herein shown is preferably constructed of rubber or other suitable elastic water proof material of a configuration conforming with that of the hoof of the animal upon which the shoe is to be used. The shoe is provided on its underside with a series of substantially radially disposed ribs 2 which present an eflicient antislipping surface to prevent the animal from slipping when traveling on icy surfaces. An integral frog cushion 3 forms a part of the shoe and it is designed to seat in the frog of the hoof as shown in Fig. 2.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed. November 22, 1911.
Patented July 23, 1912.
Serial 110. 661,833.
A reinforcing member 4 of substantially horseshoe configuration is embedded in the shoe. This member is provided With a suitable number of passages 5 through which suitable nails, such as those shown at 6, can be extended and operatively driven into the hoof of the animal. The shoe is provided with a continuous flange 7 to embrace the lower portion of the hoof. The internal surfaces of the flange 7 and the inner surface of the main body portion of the shoe can be coated with cement and the latter may be relied upon as the main medium for securely holding the shoe in its applied position upon the hoof.
The reinforcing member 4 carries an integral tongue 8,,the upper edge of which is extended above the flange 7 at the toe end of the shoe, being apertured, at 9, to permit of the engagement therein of an extracting hook or suitable tool, whereby the shoe can be removed from the hoof when worn. The reinforcing member 4 serves to prevent the entire passage of the fastening nails 6 through the shoe. The nails 6 may be relatively short and they are primarily intend ed as a means for suficiently supporting the shoe in place upon the hoof until the cement hereinbefore referred to has properly adhered and dried to the hoof.
I claim:
A rubber horseshoe provided with a ribbed tread surface, an integral flange forming a part of the shoe and adapted to be cemented to the hoof, and an apertured reinforcing member embedded in the shoe and having a lip portion extending through the flange and apertured above the plane of the flange, for the purpose specified.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
