THOMAS M. MCCONNELL, 0F ELBERTON, GEORGIA.
DRIVING-LINES.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented May 27 1913.
Application filed February 27, 1912. Serial No. 680,343.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, THOMAS M. McCon- NELL, a citizen of the United States, residing at Elberton, in the county of Elbert and State of Georgia, have invented new and useful Improvements in Driving-Lines, of which the following is a specification.
The present invention relates to certain novel improvements in driving reins.
In carrying out my invention it is my purpose to provide a driving rein which is constructed of metallic members, such as a chain, which shall be exceedingly strong, which will not be affected by the elements and is so arranged that the checks may be readily adjusted to compensate for the various sizes of animals upon which the device is employed.
With the above recited objects in view and others of a similar nature which will be better understood as the description of the invention progresses, the invention resides in the construction, combination and ar rangement of parts set forth in and falling within the scope of the appended claims.
In the drawing, Figure 1 is a plan view of a metal driving rein constructed in accordance with the present invention; Fig. 2 is a view of the driving lines having the leather reins attached directly thereto.
Referring now to the drawing in detail, the numeral 1 designates the main chain lines for the device. These lines, as clearly illustrated in the figures of the drawing, are formed with wire chain links, and the outer extremities of each of the said lines are provided with snap hooks 3 whereby the lines may be attached to the rings of bits 4. The main lines are provided with a plurality of rings 5, preferably three in number, and in Fig. 1 of the drawing, chain extensions 7 having snap hooks 8 are secured to. one of the rings. The opposite eX- I tremity of each of the chain extensions 7 is provided with a ring 9 which is adapted to receive the buckles 11 of the leather driving reins. It will be readily noted that by securing the snap hooks 8 in the various rings 5 the cross lines 2 may be attached with relation to the bits 4, so that the said bits will be either brought toward each other or away from each other according to the various sizes of animals upon which the device is employed.
In Fig. 2 I have illustrated the leather lines 7 having their ends 8 connected directly with the rings 5.
From the above description, taken in connection with the accompanying drawing, the simplicity of the device as well as the advantages thereof will, it is thought, be perfect-ly apparent to those skilled in the art without further detailed description.
What is claimed is 1. A driving rein comprising independent main, and cross lines each connected to bits, each of said main lines being provided with a plurality of rings adjacent one end, said cross lines having their free ends adjustably connected with said rings, and a driving rein adapted to be connected with any of said rings for the purpose set forth.
2. A driving rein comprising main lines connected with bits and provided with a plurality of rings at one end, independent cross lines having one end connected with said bits and the. opposite end adjustably connected with said rings, a driving rein, and a removable section adapted to connect the rein with said lines and to be connected with any of the said rings for the purpose set forth.
In testimony whereof I afiix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
THOMAS M. MGCONNELL.
