SETE WARI), OF-PRINCETON, INDIANA.
IMPROVEMENT IN BREECHING-LOOPS.
Speclcatinn forming part of Letters Patent No. 128,932, dated July 9, 1872.V
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, SETH WARD, of Princeton, in the county of Gibson and in the State of Indiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Breeching-Loops; and do hereby declare that the followin g is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawing and to the letters of reference marked thereon making a part of this specification.
The nature of my invention consists in a bridge attached to the usual breeching-loop for short-tug harness, said bridge being composed of two arches attached to the side bars of the breeching-loop and connected at the top by a buckle-bar, the buckle-bar running parallel with the side bars of the loop and provided with a tongue in the center, on its inner side, as will be hereinafter more fully set forth. y
In order to enable others skilled in the art to which my invention appertains to make and use the same, I will now proceed to describe its construction and operation, referring to the annexed drawing, in which- Figure 1 is a perspective view, and Fig. 2 a side View, of the improved breeehing-loop.
A A represent the side-bars of the usual breeching-loop commonly used in short-tug harnessl to raise or lower the traces on the horses sid es. B B are two arches attached to the side-bars AA, and connected at the top by a buckle-bar, G, running parallel with the side-bars A A. This buckle-bar is in the center, on the inner side, provided with a tongue, a, as shown. D is the tug that is fastened to the hame. E is the strap that fastens to the end of the pad 5 and Gis the tug or trace that runs horizontally along the horses side.
With the old style of breeching-loop there have to be a buckle and billet attached to each end of the pad running across the horses back, and attached to loops on each side of the horse in the following manner: The billet on the pad is passed around the side-bar'of the breechingloop and buckling back, leaving the strap or billet pointing up toward the top of the horses back, which always looks awkward and cumbersome. There also has to be a strap sewed on the other or lower bar of the breeching-loop for,the belly-band to buckle onto. With my improvement there is simply a strap, E, sewed to each end of the pad, or an extension of the pad, as the case may be, and passed under the buckle-bar C, the tongue a entering a hole in said strap to keep it to its proper place. By this arrangement the loop may be adjusted up or down at pleasure, and the strap E, after passing the buckle-bar C on the top, serves for the bellyband to buckle onto, thus dispensing with at least four straps of leather and quite a number of leather keepers, and making a much neater and cheaper set of harness than by using the old style loop. The entire loop may be cast in one piece, or, if desired, made of sep` arate pieces, united together in any suitable manner to form a whole.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, isy The within-described breeching-loop, consistin g of the frame A, arches B B, and crossbar C, with downward-projecting tongue, a,
all constructed as shown and described, forl the purposes set forth.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto set my hand this 10th day of April, 1872.
SETE WARD.
