HARNESS-RING.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Apr. 3, 191?.
Application filed July 25, 1916. Serial No. 111,268.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, LUTHER F RAZIER, a
- citizen of the United States, residing at Anthony, in the county of Harper and State of Kansas, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Harness-Rings, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to harness rings and more particularly to an improved form of ring for use in connection with driving harness provided with means for securing the reins when the harness is not in use.
One of the main objects of the invention is to provide a ring of the character stated provided with simple and eficient means for holding the reins in doubled position through the ring. A further object is to provide a device which may be quickly and easily applied to any harness ring of stand ard construction. Further objects will appear from the detailed description.
In the drawings:
Figure 1 is a front view of the ring as used.
Fig. 2 is a section on line 22 of Fig. 1.
l/Vhen the harness is removed from the horse the reins are doubled and inserted through the ring which is mounted on the back band of the harness. After the reins have been inserted through the ring 1, as described, they are secured in this position by means of a tapered pin or tongue 2 provided at its upper end with an eye 3 which is mounted about a reduced neck 4.- formed integral with the ring. By reducing the ring to form the neck 41 it is provided with lateral shoulders adjacent the sides of the eye 3 which act to prevent movement of the pin on the ring 1. This pin' is of a length greater than the interior diameter of the ring 1. as shown.
The common way of securing the reins is to double them' and insert them through the ring then tie the free end of the rein about the doubled part thereof. By my invention I do away altogether with the necessity of tying the reins thus saving the time necessary for the tying and also relieving the rein of the strain which such tying entails.
This will be clear from Fig. 1 of the draw ings in which the rein 5 is shown as doubled and inserted through the ring. the in 2 being suspended through the bend of the rein so as to hold it extended from the ring. In practice the rein is doubled and inserted through the ring after which the pin is rocked forward into the bend of the rein, the rein being then drawn tight so as to force the pin into operative position. The ring or terret l is secured to the harness saddle A at a slight outward inclination as indicated in Fig. l'of the drawings. hen the saddle is removed and placed on a harness supporting arm or hook, in the usual manner, the ring 1 is supported in approximately the position shown in Fig. 1 of the drawings. The member 2 is mounted on the ring 1 at a downward and inward inclination, and is tapered toward its free end, as shown in Fig. l of the drawings. Due to the taper and inclination of member 2,,the rein, which is in contact with the lower portion of the ring 1, is secured against free movement and'acts normally to hold member 2 pressed against the ring in operative position.
What I claim is:
1. The combination of an unobstructed ring adapted to be secured to a harness saddle and having an integral reduced portion, and a member provided with an integral eye mounted loosely about the reduced portion of the ring, said member being of a length greater than the interior diameter of the ring.
2. The combination of a saddle, an open ring secured on said saddle having an integral reduced portion, and a downwardly and inwardly inclined member looselv secured at its upper end aboutthe reduced portion of the ring, said member being of greater length than the interior diameter of said ring and tapered toward its free end.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
LUTHER FRAZIER.
