WILLIAM 'WOBGAN, OF GRAFTON, PENNSYLVANIA.
FEED-BAG.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, YVILLIAM W'oncan, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at Grafton, in the county of Allegheny and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Feed-Bags, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawing.
This invention relates to feed bags, and the primary object of my invention is to furnish a feed bag with a novel feed pan that is elevated as the feed within the bag is consumed, thereby placing feed bags in proximity to a horses head whereby the entire contents of the feed bag can be obtained.
Another object of this invention is to provide a feed bag having novel ventilating openings that permit of a horse easily ob taining feed within the bag without danger of suffocation, without inhaling dust and other impurities within the bag, and without danger of the feed being spilled through the ventilating openings.
A further object of this invention is to provide a bag that can be easily suspended from a horses head and the upper end of the bag frictionally held in engagement therewith, whereby feed cannot be wasted on account of a movement of the horses head.
A still further object of this invention is to provide a feed bag of the above type that is sanitary, inexpensive to manufacture, durable and highly eflicientfor the purposes for which it is intended.
With the above and other objects in view, the invention resides in the novel construction, combination and arrangement of parts to be hereinafter specifically described and then claimed.
Reference will now be had to the drawing, wherein Figure 1 is a side elevation of a feed bag in accordance with this invention, Fig. 2 is an enlarged vertical sectional view of the same, and Fig. 3 is a horizontal sectional view of the bag.
Further describing my invention with reference to .the drawing, wherein like numerals denote corresponding parts throughout: 1 denotes a flexible casing, preferably made of canvas or a light and durable fabric. The lower end of the casing 1 is provided with a case 2 and located within Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed August 23, 1912.
Patented Apr. 8, 1913.
Serial No. 716,759.
said case is a ring 3 that assists in maintaining the cylindrical form of the casing l.
The upper end of the casing l is gathered and provided with a case a in which is lo cated an elastic band 5 for snugly holding the upper end of the casing 1 in engagement with the nose 6 of a horses head;
Secured to oppositely disposed sides of the case 1, as at 7 are the ends of straps 8 provided with a buckle 9, said straps retaining the feed bag in engagement with the horses head.
Located within the casing 1, intermediate the ends thereof, is a metallic band 10 that is riveted or otherwise secured to the casing, as at 11. Secured to the metallic band 10 by the same fastening means are a plurality of equally spaced elastic hangers 12, said elast-ics depending from the band 10 and having the lower ends thereof riveted or otherwise connected, as at 18 to the walls 14: of a feed pan 15 adapted to contain feed 16. The feed 16 maintains the pan 15 in proximity to the lower end of the casing 1, and as the feed 16 is consumed, the elastic hangers 12 gradually elevate the pan 15, whereby the entire contents thereof can be consumed.
The front side of the casing 1, adjacent to the top thereof, is provided with openings 17 and stitched or otherwise secured to the outer side of the casing 1, at the openings 17, are the flanges 18 of nozzles or air inlet tubes 19, preferably made of a semielastlc material, as hard rubber. These nozzles admit air to theupper end of the casmg 1 and as heretofore stated, prevent the horse from being suffocated when using the bag. The admission of air to the bag causes the feed therein to be assimilated just as though the horse was feeding from the feed box of a stall.
It is thought that the utility of the feed bag will be apparent without further de scription, and while in the drawing there is illustrated a preferred embodiment of the invention, it is to be understood that the structural elements are susceptible to such variations as fall within the scope of the appended claim.
WVhat I claim is A feed bag comprising a flexible casing having its upper end contracted and further hemmed at its upper and lower ends, an elastic band secured to the casing by the hemmed portion at the upper end thereof, a rigid ring secured to said casing by the hemmed portion at the lower end thereof, a rigid band located Within said casing in- 5 termediate its ends and belowthe contracted portion, elastic hangers depending from said band, a feed pan, means for securing the lower ends of said hangers to the inner face of the sides of said pan, rivets for securing 10 the upper ends of said hangers to said pan and for further fixedly securing said pan to said casing, and means to facilitate suspending said bag from the horses head.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in the presence of two Witnesses.
