C. PARISH.
Improvement in Horseshoes.
No.129,586. Patentedlulyi6,1872.
UNITED STATES CHARLES PARISH, OF ELKHAR'I, INDIANA.
IMPROVEMENT IN HORSESHOES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 129,586, dated July 16, 1872.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, CHARLES PARISH, of Elkhart, in the county of Elkhart and State of Indiana, have invented a new and valuable Improvement in Horseshoes; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the construction and operation of the same, reference being had to the annexed drawing making a part of this specification, and to the letters and figures of reference marked thereon.
Figure 1 of the drawing is a representation of a bottom view of my invention. Figs. 2 and 3 are detail views of the same.
My invention has relation to jointed horseshoes for the cure of contracted feet; and consists in the hereinafter-described construction and arrangement of the joints, whereby the shoe is allowed to expand moderately with the feet, but is prevented from contracting beyond its limit as first applied.
In the drawing, A represents the toe-piece, and B the side pieces, secured thereto by rivets C. WVhere the ends of said pieces connect they are constructed with rabbets or ofi'sets. The end of each piece is brought to a double bevel or point, as shown at a, which enters a nearly-correspondin g angular recess, a at the back of the ofl'set-step. The relation of these beveled ends to the angular recesses is such that when the shoe is in readiness to be applied the inner shoulders or sides e 0 shall closely abut against each other, leaving between the shoulders e e a slight wedge-shaped space, and that at the same time the outer shoulders on the reverse side of the shoe shall abut against each other and leave a similar wedge-shaped space between the two inner sides. When the joints are in this position and the shoe applied no further contraction can take place, but expansion may to the extent of the wedge-shaped spaces.
As will be seen, the edges of the beveled projections and recesses are cut or formed obliquely with respect to the surfaces of the shoe, the object being to increase the extent of the abutting-surfaces, and thereby render the joint stronger than it would otherwise be. This formation also assists in keeping the tread-surface of the shoe even at the joints.
What I claim as new is- The combination with a toepiece, A, having angular ends and indented shoulders, with side bars B having each an angular end and indented shoulder, said angular ends being more acute than said indented shoulders, and pivoted within said shoulders, forming lapjoints having lateral play, as and for the purpose specified.
In testimony that I claim the above I have hereunto subscribed my name in the presence of two witnesses.
- CHARLES PARISH. Witnesses:
B. TURNOCK, V J. H. HUTOHISON.
