ALBERT J HANISCI-I, F OAK PARK, ILLINOIS.
BLANKET FOR HORSES.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, ALBERT J. HANIscH, a citizen of the United States, residing at Oak Park, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Blankets for Horses, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to blankets for horses, etc, whether called storm blankets, kidney covers, or horse covers. The obj ect of the invention is to provide the device of this character, which is very satisfactory in use and operation because it possesses singly or together novel forms of hame leathers, trace carriers and adjustable front strap fasteners.
The invention consists in numerous features and details which will be hereafter fully described and claimed.
Referring to the drawings, in which similar numerals indicate the same parts throughout the several views,
Figure l is a picture of a horse having a blanket embodying all the features of this invention applied thereto.
Fig. 2 is a plan view of a blanket removed from the horse and spread out.
Fig. 3 is a sectional view of one side of the front strap fastener device taken on the line 33 of Fig. 2, while Fig. 4 is a corresponding view of the other half of this device taken on the line 4-4; of Fig. 2.
Fig. 5 is a sectional detail view of the improved trace carrier, lazy strap or tug strap and its method of attachment to the blanket, taken on the line 55 of Fig. 2.
Blankets of this type are preferably made with an outer layer of waterproof material 10, whether of rubber, waterproof duck or the like is wholly immaterial, the same being lined with a plurality of layers 12 of material, well understood in the art, designed to afford warmth to the animal to which the blanket is applied.
In applying the front strap fasteners of this invention to such a blanket, pieces of leather 14: and 16 of suit-able size are provided for attachment directly to the blanket material by stitches 18 or other suitable securing devices of such a character that they do not present rough surfaces on the inside of the blanket adjacent to the body of the animal. These leather pieces lei and 16 are provided with vertical slots 20 through which leather loops 22 and 24 may be re- Specification of Letters Patent. Patent d S t 11 19 17 Application filed November 27, 1915.
Serial No. 63,887.
spectively inserted and secured in place by rivets 26 which, as clearly shown in Figs. 3 and 4, do not enter the innermost sheet 12 of the blanket material. The result of this construction is that these loops 22 and 24: are secured by the rivets to the cloth, duck and leather members 14: and 16 without the inner ends of the rivets ever coming in contact with the animal to which the blanket is applied, as is the case where loops of leather are riveted entirely through ablanket as has heretofore been the practice in the art.
One of these loops, as 22, is provided with, say, a. ring 28 in which a snap 30 may engage, while the other loop, as 2 f, is provided with a buckle 32 in which the front fastener strap 3st proper carrying the above mentioned snap 30 is adjustably securablc in the ordinary manner.
By the construction just described, this completeadjustable front strap fastening device is secured to the blanket in a very secure and satisfactory manner without providing any part of a rough or otherwise harmful character contacting the body of the animal or object, such as an automobile, to which the blanket is applied.
Referring now to the trace carrying device, particularly illustrated in Fig. 5, the outer surface of the blanket is provided on each side with a reinforcing plate of leather, secured in place by a stitching or other suitable means. This reinforcing member l0 and the sheets of blanket material l0 and 12 have cut in them slots 4.2 and a l running parallel to each other and parallel to the length of the blanket so that a loop 46 is provided over which a sliding strap i8 is passed, as clearly appears in Fig. This strap l-S carries at one end a ring 50 and at the other end a snap 52, tliesetivo parts being attachable and detachable together after being placed over a hart trace, wagon shaft or thill, or other object to which the blanket is to be secured to prevent its being blown off from the particular thing on which it is used.
The structure just described is advantageous in that the strap 4-8 is much more securely fastened to the blanket than it would be were it riveted in the ordinary manner: in that as the strap assumes different positions at different times, the pull and consequently the wear on the strap is much more evenly distributed than when the strap is rigidly secured in oneplace, thereby leatherof the shape shown, sewed inplace, the blanket is protected against ,wear from 5 the hames of the harness.
v Having thus described my 1nvention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Let-;
ters Patent, is 2- 1, In a ,device of the'class described, the
combination of ablanket, a plate of reine forcing material secured to one side of the blanket, aloop formed in the blanket by havingparallelslots cut in said reinforcing naterialand theblanket material, and a strap located on the opposite side of the iWitnes'ses:
blanket from the reinforcing plate and slidable over said loop, for the purposes set forth.
In a device of the class described, the combination of a blanket member, a reinforcing-plate 40 on one surface thereof, a loop 46 formed in the material of said plate and saidblanket, bent outward from the surface of the blanket toward the side thereof opposite to thaton which saidplate l0 is located, and a strap slidablej through ,s aid loo p andbearingfupon the portion of the loop which isfaced by a portion of the reinforcing plate 49.
.I witness whereof, I have hereunto sub-- scribed my name in the presence of two witnesses.
