To (ZZZ whom, it nmy/ con-corn":
Be it known that 1, Within: 1-1. \Vinson, a citizen of the United States, residing at Jamesville, in the county of Onondaga and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvementsin Non-Slipping Devices, of which the following is a specification.
This intention relates to improvements in non-slipping devices,and has for its object to provide a simple,light,-strong and durable device for either temporary or permanent attachment to a horse-shoe.
A further object is to provide a device of the class for attachment tolrorse-shoes for the purpose of preventing the animal from slipping on wet and icy pavements. And a further object is tov provide a devicewhich may be readily and quickly applied to and removed from the animals foot, without disturbing the permanent shoe which is attached to the hoof. f
The various features and parts of the invention will be understood from the detailed description which follows, and by reference to the accompanying drawing, in which Figure 1 is a top plan view of a horseshoe having my improvement applied thereto. F 2 is a bottom planviewof the same. Fig. 3 is a top plan view similar to Fig. 1; showing the non-slippingparts extended in position for applying and detaching the said parts; Figfll is a side'elevation'of one of the detachable spike-plates. central lon itudinal section, taken on line of Fig. 1. Fig. 6 is a cross-sectional detail, taken on line 6-6 of Fig. 1. Fig. 7 is a modified view of one of the non-slipping members; showing the spikes integral with the plate.
In. the drawing, 2 represents the permanent horseshoe, which comprises a substantially semi-circular plate, having a series of perforations 3 disposed in each arm for receiving the horse-shoe nails and having a substantially V-shaped toe-calk 2 at the opposite sides of which is disposed similar longitudinal slots 4, the said slots, at the top side of the shoe, being beveled, as at t. The heelportion 5 of each arm of the shoe is folded upon itself to provide a groove or an under-cut 6, which faces the toe.
The non-slipping parts comprise similar arc-shaped plates 7, which are provided with studs 8, which engage the slots it, for

.studs, the latter may be entered into the slots l-only when the plates 7 are positioned asshown in Fig. 3. After the studs have been inserted in the slots, the plates 7 are swung on the said pivots until they are brought directly beneath and into register with the corresponding portions of the shoe 2-, as shown in 2, at which time the heads 9 of the studs are positioned crosswise of the slots 4., and the under beveled surfaces of the heads tightly engage the op posite beveled surfaces i of the slots. When the interlocking parts are properly made the toe-portions of the plates 7'will be drawn and held tightly against the bottom-side of the shoe, when said plates are swung into the service or closed position shown in Fig. 2. The final closing movement of the plates 7 brings the reduced ends 10 of the plates into snug engagement with the slots or grooves in the heel-ends 5 of the shoe. The ends or tongues 10 are preferably slightly wedge-shaped so that a slight pressure is required to force the tongues into the grooves 6 for effecting a firm contact between the heel-portions of the shoe and the plates 7. After the plates 7 have been swung into the closed or working position, common nails or similar parts 11 are inserted through the folded heelportions 5, which are suitably perforated for the purpose, and in passing through the heels, the said nails engage notches 11 formed in the tips of the tongues 10, thereby preventing the accidental release of the plates 7. The studs 8 as well as the pins 11 hold the plates tightly enough to prevent rattling of the parts.
The anti-slipping means proper comprise a series of spikes 12, Which are carried by each of the plates 7, and these are disposed in tapering holes 13 of the said plates, the said spikes being correspondingly tapered so as to tightly lit the said holes, and the said spikes are inserted downwardly through the plates, and their'head-ends are preferably brought flush with the top surface of the plates, so that When the said plates are applied to the shoe the said heads have a .firm bearing against the bottom face of the intended that the spikes 12 be removable in case they are broken, bent or otherwise rendered ineffective, by simply swinging the plates 7 laterally, as shown in Fig. 3, at which time the spikes may be knocked out by a slight blow on their points and new spikes inserted,'without requiring the plates 7 to be entirely detached from the shoe. The detachable plates as ,7, and the spikes as 12, may, however, be made integral, if desired, as shown in Fig. 7.
From the foregoing it will be understood that the horseshoe 2 may be permanently attached to a horses hoof, and worn as an ordinary shoe that the detachable plates 7 may be applied and removed at will, without in any way disturbing the permanent shoe. Thus, in case of a sudden freeze-up, the driver of' the horsecan, in a moments time, apply the spike-plates 7' to the shoes 2, and as soon as the slippery condition passes away,'he can readily and quickly remove the said plates. The provision of the removable spikes or c'alks 12, enables the users of the improvement to readily, quickly and cheaply remove and renew the broken or distorted spikes, without even having to remove the detachable plates 7.
' Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is V V I i 1. In a non-slipping device, the combination with the permanent shoe having grooves in the heelends facing the toe of the shoe, and having slotted openings near the toe, of a pair .of detachable perforated plates adapted to underlie the permanent shoe, said plates having studs engaging said slotted openings for clamping one end of the plates to the shoe, and having tongues for engaging said grooves for clamping the other end to the shoe, and a plurality of removable .calks inserted through the said plates and bearingagainst the underside of the permanent shoe.
2. In a non-slipping device, the combination w th the permanent horse-shoe having slots arranged at the opposite'sides of the toe-calk, and having its heel-portions folded,
upon themselves to form grooves, of a pair of detachable arc-shaped plates, each of said plates having a stud for engagingone of said slots, and each plate having a series of tapering holes, the heel-end of each plate comprising a tongue adapted to engage the corresponding groove in the heel of the shoe, and a plurality of spikes'inserted in the tapering holes of said plates for preventing slipping. V 7 F In a non-slipping device, the combination with the permanent shoe having grooves in the heel-ends facing the toe of theshoe,
and having slotted openings near the toe,
of a pair of detachable -aro-shaped plates adapted'to underlie the permanent shoe, said plates having studsengaging said slotted openings for clamping one end of the plates tothe shoe, and having tongues for engaging said grooves, a plurality of removable spikes inserted through the said plates and bearing against the underside of the permanent shoe, and pins piercing the heelends of said shoe for preventing the accidental release of the said plates.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature.
WILLIAM H. WILSON.
