, C.J.-FERCH. HARNESS ATTACHMENT. APPLI CATION FILED JAN. 23. I920- 1,372,41 1. Patented Mar. 22, 1921 @IUNIT STATES PATENT OFEIC ha men m sa: as t m-m le;
Toall 'whomit may com-m.-
I Be it known that 1, CALYINJOHN 1FEROH, of thecit p of North akota, United-Statesof America, have invented certain new and -usefullmrovements in Harness Attachmenta ot which the following is the specification.
The invention relates to aharness attachment and particularly to an appliance utllized for driving purpose's and the object of the invention is to provide an inexpensive,
eflicient and durable article which can be readily attached to the harness and can be operated by the driver to prod the animal.
With the above objects in'view the invention consists essentially in a swinging member fitted at one end with extending studs or prongs and provided at the other end with attaching means and a line, rope or such like for actuating the prongs, the parts being arranged and constructed as hereinafter more particularly described and later pointed out in the appended claims, reference being had to the accompanylng drawingfin wh1ch:--
igure 1 is a perspective v1ew of the device as it appears attached and in the nonoperative position,
Fig/ibis a perspective view of the article, and
Fig. 3 is a side view of a modified form of construction.
In the drawing like characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in the several figures.
1 represents a prodding member in the form of a wood block 2, which is provided on one of its surfaces with a plurality of short length prongs or The block is permanently attached to the free or lower end of a hanger or body member 1, the other end of which is attached to a fastening or attaching member 5, the fastening member being arranged to slip on to the belly band 6 of the harness.
In Figs. 1 and 2 of the drawing the member 4 is shown as formed from a single piece of wirebent centrally of its length to pro vide a cross arm 7 and two parallel side arms 8 and 9 which have their free ends bent to provide fastening pins 10 and 11 which are driven into the sides of the block. Here it is also to be. observed that the sides of the block are grooved as indicated at 12 and 13 the grooves receiving the ends of the of Grand Forks, in-the State sharpened studs 3.

From the above description it will be apparent that the side arms are pivotally connected by the eyes to the hook and that the prodding member has a natural tendency to hang down owing to the weight of the bloc y In Fig. 3 where a modified form of the device is shown the wire is dispensed with and a leather strap 18 is securely fastened to the-block at one end and has theother end fitted with a metal loop or ring 19 suitablkfiveted to the strap. r
en the article, as shown in Fig. 2, is to be used it is attached to the belly hand without undoing the belly band simply drawingPthe hook like catch over the belly band. ulling strings 20 and 21 are attached to the side arms adjacent the block and these are connected at 22 to a single rearwardly extending pulling line 23 which asses to the driver. Here it will be ob served that the point of ,connection 22 is located on the back of the horse. Any time the driver wishes to work the device he pulls the cord 23 backwardly, which action causes the block to swing up and the prongs to prod the underside of the belly.
The modified form of article as shown in Fig. 3 is attached to the belly band by pass ing the belly band through the loop and the loop is made round so that it can be readily turned on the belly band.
This article is particularly valuable where one is driving several horses, some of which are nervous or high strung. Where the ordinary whip is used one cannot whip a lazy horse without alarming the high strung horses which is undesirable. With this device any horse can be prodded without parallel side arms, a block interposed between and permanently secured to the free ends of the side arms, one faceof the block and 'ahooklike wire catch ivotally secured to the cross arm.
2. e combination with a belly band, of a prodder comprising an attachment mem- I ber 'adapted to detachablyengage said belly band, a body portion, piercing studs located at one end of the body, the other end being hingedly connected with theattachment member, and-a pulling line associated with the last-namedend for a, purpose specified.
3. The combination with a belly band, of a prodder comprising an attaching member adapted'to detachably engage the belly band, a wirejcross bar hingedly connected to the attaching member, a pair of parallel side arms extending from the ends of said cross'arm, a block retained between said studs extending from parallel arms, and pron s carried by said block for a purpose speci 16d.
4. The combination of a belly band, of a rodder comprising an attaching member adapted to detachably engage the belly band, a wire cross arm hingedly connected to the attaching member, a pair of parallel side arms extending from the ends of said cross arm and at right angles thereto, a block
