UNITED STATES ADOLF LEU, OF HOBOKEN, NEW JERSEY.
HORSESHOE.
Application filed April 20, 1920- To all Lo/0m it may concern:
Be it known that I, ADoLr LEU, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at Hoboken, in the Vcounty of Hudson and State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Horseshoes, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to horseshoes, and has for its object to provide means whereby the compressible anti-slipping members in the sole or bottom of the shoe will be effectively retained in position and permitted to expand and contract.
lVith these and other objects in view, my invention consists in the novel construction, combination and arrangement of parts as will be hereinafter more fully described and defined in the appended claim:
In the accompanying drawing in which similar reference characters denote corresponding parts, Figure l is a bottom view of the horseshoe; Fig. 2, a cross-section on line 2 2 of Fig. l; Fig. 3, a longitudinal section on line 3 3 of Fig. 1; and Fig. 4, a perspective view of a part of the horseshoe.
In the drawing a denotes the shoe having sockets a for calks and longitudinal grooves a2 in its sole or bottom having tapered end walls a3 and forming seats in which antislipping members usually made. of rope or other compressible material, are fitted, while c denotes the calks.
Heretofore some of these anti-slipping members to be retained in position, have been fastened by cross-pins or the like passed through the ropes and holes in the marginal walls of the seats: containing the ropes. But by such construction the ropes which have the tendency to expand and con- Specication of Letters Patent.

Serial No. 375,183.
tract by reason of the intermediate anchorage are prevented from uniformly adjusting themselves in their seats. but instead the parts at both sides of the anchorage are caused to act independently of one another` as a result of which when expanding the parts bulge outwardly-from the seats and render the anti-slipping members useless. To obviate this drawback, I provide the following construction:
About midway between the ends of each longitudinal groove or seat and on the inner side wall, I provide an outwardly-tapered or wedge-shaped recess a* in the wall of said groove extendingr at a right angle to the latter. This recess has the object to laterally engage the anti-slipping member when the latter is compressed in its seat. Such engagement of the anti-slipping member`l while retaining the latter in position, permits the whole member to uniformly eX- pand or contract in its seat.
There may be a recess in each one of the marginal walls of the seats or several such recesses, instead of a single recess as shown.
lVliat I cla-im and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
A horseshoe having a. groove on each side, each groove having its ends inwardly tapered to form pockets and a wedge-shaped recess on its inner side wall, and two compressible cushions, one in each groove, each adapted to engage with its ends said pockets and with its inner face the said recess, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I aix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
ADOLF LEU. lVitnesses JOSEPH T. MGMAHON, Max D. ORDMANN.
