UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JESSE TATMAN, OF HAMERSVILLE, OHIO THILL-LOOP HOLDER To all whom, it may 00nce1m:
Be it known that I, Jnssn TA'IMAN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Hamersville, in the county of Brown and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Thill-Loop Holders, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawings.
This invention relates to new and useful improvements in thill-loop holders, the object of the invention being a provide a loop holder which will prevent the thills from being removed from the loops in case the trace becomes broken or unfastened.
Another object of the invention is to provide a holder which will serve as a loop for the free end of the saddle strap to pass through, doing away with the usual leather loop now in use.
Another object of the invention is to provide a device of this character which will possess advantages in points of efficiency and durability, is inexpensive to manufacture and at the same time is simple in construction.
WVith the above and other objects in view, the invention consists in the novel features of construction and the combination and arrangement of parts hereinafter more fully described, pointed out in the claims and shown in the accompanying drawings in which,
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a thillloop holder constructed in accordance with my invention. Fig. 2 is a side elevation and Fig. 3 is a side elevation of a shaft showing the retaining plate secured thereto.
Referring more particularly to the draW- ings, 1 indicates the thill-loop which is constructed of leather or other suitable material and of any well known form. Secured to the upper end of the loop is a buckle 2 to which is secured the lower end of the saddle strap 3. The loop holder 4 which is secured to the loop comprises a frame consisting of two substantially triangular shaped side portions 5 which are connected at their ends by means of the transverse bar 6. A third transverse bar 7 connects corresponding arms of the side portions 5.
The frame 4 is hingedly connected to the buckle 2 by means of a sleeve 8 within which one of the transverse bars 6 is arranged and Specification of Letters Patent.

Serial No. 729,888.
the end portions of the loop of the buckle, said sleeve being provided with a suitable slot 9 in which the tongue 10 of the buckle is adapted to be arranged. The sleeve 8 is secured within the leather loop so that the buckle and the frame 4 are pivotally connected to the loop. Depending from one end of the frame are the spurs 11, which are adapted to engage within the openings 13 formed within the plate 14.- which is secured to the thill 15. The thill is provided beneath the plate with a recess 16 which is adapted to receive the ends of the lugs 12 when they are inserted within the openings 13. Secured to the transverse bar 7 is the billet 17 which, when secured in position will help to retain the lugs 11 within the openings 13. Thus it will be seen that in case the trace should become broken or unfastened, the thill will be prevented from pulling out of the loop by means of the lugs. It will also be apparent that the free end of the saddle strap 3 may be held in position by arranging the same between the side portions 5 of the frame and disposed beneath the transverse bar 7.
From the drawings, it will be readily seen that the side portions of the U-shaped loop 11 are arranged upon opposite sides of the loop 1 and the intermediate portion thereof is disposed within the loop so that the lugs 12 will readily engage with the openings 13 when the thill is passed into the loop 1. It will be readily apparent that the lugs 12 may be removed from the openings 13 after the billet 17 has been released from its operative position and it will also be seen that the tightening of the billet 17 will securely hold the lugs into engagement with the plate upon the thill.
From the above it will be readily apparent that I have provided a thill-loop holder which not only serves to prevent the removal of the thill from the loop, but also serves as a loop for the free end of the saddle straps to pass through. It will also be apparent that the device is extremely simple in its construction and can be manufactured at a comparatively low cost.
While I have shown and described the preferred form of my invention, it will be obvious that various changes in the details of construction and in the proportions may be resorted to for successfully carrying my invention into practice Without sacrificing any of the novel features or departing from the scope of the appended claims.
What I claim is 1. In a device of the character described, the combination With a thill having a plate secured thereto and said plate having alined openings formed therein, of a thill tug, a
, frame carried thereby, and spaced spurs depending from said frame and adapted to engage With the openings in the plate.
2. In a device of the character described, the combination With a thill having a plate secured thereto and said plate having alined openings formed therein, of a thill tug, a
framecarried thereby, said frame comprising substantially triangular shaped side portions, transverse bars connecting the ends of said side portions, a third transverse bar connecting corresponding arms of the side portions, and spaced spurs depending from one end of the frame and adapted to engage Wit-hin the openings in the plate.
In testimony whereof I hereunto aflix my signature in the presence of two Witnesses.
JESSE TAT MAN.
