IMPRovEMl-:NT 1N. HrrcHme-Pos-rs.
!.he Selxedu1e referred to in these Letters Patent and makingpart of the same.
To all whom 'it may concern Be it kno-wn that I, Wnison S. Owlnes, of Pan :Handle Post-0fice, in the county of Brooke and State of West Virginia, have invented anew and useful Improvement inHitching-Post; and I do hereby de- Clare. the following to be a full, clear, and exact description thereof; reference being had to the accompanying drawing forming part of this specification, which is a perspective view of my improved bitching-post.
My invention-consistsin the construction of a hitching-post with blocks or steps hinged in its sides, so that it'can -be used as amounting-block.
To enable others. skilled inthe art to make and use my invention, I will .proceed to describe .its construc-l tion and use.
Y I 'make the post cof wood or other suitable material. Y
` In a groove, e, around the upper end of .the post a, I place a ring, b, loosely fitting, so as to allow it to turn in the groove e.
This'riug has a loop, j; extending out on one side, the ring and loop being formed byplaeing a large ring in the groove, and by pinching it, so as to make one part of it form the ring b and the other part the loop f. v
In the sides of the post a I ont' one or more re.
cesSes, c.
Near the lower end of each of' these recesses I hinge a block or step, d, of such size that it will fold up into the recess.
W'hen opened out the step Z stands 'at right angles to thepost, and rests upon the lower end of the .recess c, as shown by dotted lines.
The loose ring b is of great advantage when a restless `horse is hitched to it, since it will allow him to walk around the post without twisting up his strap, and, as is often the case, injuring himself'.
By my invention I combine the advantages of hitching-post and mounting-block.
.The steps d are not in the way, since, when not in use, they can be folded into the recesses.
4YVhat I claim as Amy invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is v Ahitching-post, a, having mounting-steps c1, con'-v structed substantially as described.
