H 0HE SHOE. APPLICATION FILED FEB. 20.- 19l5.
1,156,935. Patented Oct. 19, 1915.
um/MM I 'Nrr , LEVI SGHWOYER, or rorrsrowiy, PENNSYLVANIA,
. HoRsEs on i To'aZZ whom it may concern."
Be it known that I, LEVI So -iwoYER, a citizen of'the United States, residing at Pottstown, in the county of Montgomery and State of Pennsylvania, have invented. new, and useful Improvements in Horseshoes, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to the class of farriery and particularly to horseshoes The primary object of the invention is the provision of a calk which may be quickly applied to or removed from the shoe and which will be so constructed asto effectually resist the strains and jars which may be im parted thereto and which will include means whereby the calk will be positively held against derangement from the shoe.
Another object of the invention is the provision-of a fastening device which may be mounted flush in the calk and secured in the shoe in such manner as will hold the calk in a proper applied position.
With these and other objects in view, the invention consists of certain novel features of construction, combination and arrangement of parts, as will be hereinafter described and claimed.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a bottom perspective view of the shoe;
Fig. 2 is a section through the shoe and,
through the toe calk; Fig. 3 is a section through the shoe andthrough the heel calk; Fig. 4: is a perspective view ofa slightly modified form of heel calk; Fig. 5 is a similar view of a still further modified form of heel calk; Fig. 6 is a perspective view of a slightly modified form of toe calk.
The shoe 1 is provided at its toe end with a medial extension 2, which extends in the direction of the heel of the shoeandwhich is provided with a forwardly threaded passage 3 and a rear passage 4 having smooth walls, both of said passages being extended to the full depth or thickness of the shoe, as clearly shown. The toe calk 5 comprises a metallic body 6, which underlies the shoe at the toe end thereof and which is provided with an extension 7 conforming with the configuration of the extension 2, and as illustrated said extension 7 is provided with an integral cylindrical lug '8 corresponding with the formation of the passage 4: and
fitting therein. The body 6 has welded or Specif cation or Letters Patent.
otherwise secured thereto a member or lug 9 having a relatively flat lower surface and a centrally located concavity 10, the walls of the latter bein'gdisposed so as to partly embrace arelatively' large circular recess 11, which is formed in the body 6' at-a point in Patented Oct. 19, 1915. Application filed February 20,-,1915; serialnaasee,
u h h a d Pass ges, n pr r Fa relatively large circular head- 14 whose inner surface is adapted for frictional contact wih the walls of the recess 10 so as to increase the friction between the parts and thereby minimize the possibility of the parts shoe is in use. The head 13 comes flush with the lower surfaceof the body 6 so as to be.
positively held against contacting with objects on theroadway. As .a result of this construction, the screw is insured against being broken or distorted and is retained in a position so that it maybe freely operated when desired and the 'calk'removed.
The head 14: is provided with a rectangular wrench receiving socket 15, in which a correspondingly formed implement may be inserted and the screw rotated in either direction. The calk is provided with the usual integral toe extension 16, which extends from the toe end of'the shoe and which lies vertically thereabove so that it may be brought becoming accidentally separated while the into engagement with the toe end ofthe hoof the toe calk, and it is believed that a description of one will suflice for the other. It is stated, however, that the heel calks are constructedfrom a single piece of material of uniform width and that they are rolled so as to provide depending lugs 18.
. In the modified form of heel'calk shown in Fig. 4, the lug 19 is provided with a rela- 1 tively sharp edge QO. This form of calk is.
identical with the form shown in Fig. 4, v
but in this instance the lug 21 is extended at right angles from the plane of the lug 20 in the .torm shown in Fig. 4.
The toe call: 22 illustrated in Fig. 6 is formed to provide companion depending lugs 24: and an intervening vertically disposed lug 25, the latter being equivalent of the lug 16 shown in Fig. 1. It is of course to be understood that the various forms of calks shown can be constructed in any desired dimensions.
From the foregoing description, taken in connection with the accompanying drawings,
the construction and operation of the invention will be readily understood without requiring a more extended explanation.
Various changes in the form, proportion and the minor details of construction may be resorted to without departing from the principle or sacrificing any of the advantages of this invention as claimed.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim is As a new article of manufacture, a toe calk constructed of a single blank of material formed to provide spaced depending lugs, and an intermediate vertically rising lug, and a horizontal body portion provided with an integral rearwardly located lug and a forwardly located vertical passage, the passage being located in the same longitudinal line with the lug, the bottomsurface of the horizontal portion being provided with a circular recess opening directly into said passage.
In testimony whereof I a'HiX my signature in presence of two Witnesses.
LEVI SCHVVOYER.
