HORSESI-IOE PAD.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Feb. 21, 1922.
Application filed December 16, 1919, Serial No. 345,296. Renewed January 17, 1922. Serial No. 529,998.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, HARRY S. CARYL, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Scranton, Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Horseshoe Pads, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to horseshoe pads, and its principal objects are to provide a pad which may be used in connection with the ordinary form of horseshoe to prevent slipping on wet or icy streets and at the same time relieve or prevent soreness of limbs, tendons, or hoofs. I
A further object is to provide'a pad which will be simple, practical, and economical to manufacture; and my invention consists in the novel construction, details, and arrangement of parts hereinafter described.
In the drawings Figure 1 is an underneath perspective view of my improved pad applied with the shoe to a horses hoof,
- Fig. 2 is a bottom plan view of the pad,
Fig. 3 is a top plan, and
Fig. 4 is a longitudinal sectional view of the device.
1 indicates my improved pad which is formed of suitable resilient material such as rubber and fabric impregnated with rubher, and consists of an upper or web por-- tion 2 covering the surface of the hoof and having a concavity 8 disposed so as to lie beneath the frog of the hoof when the pad is applied. The lower or tread portion 4 of the pad is of less area than the web portion and is grooved or recessed at 5 to receive the ordinary metal shoe 6, the groove being of such depth relatively to the width of the shoe as to leave the nail holes 7 of the shoe exposed. The tread portion 4: is provided with a raised wearing surface com prising a heel 9 and a main portion 10 fol lowing substantially the contour of the front part of the shoe and having inwardly projecting members 11, extending part way across the tread portion, leaving the center open so as to cause the weight to be applied at the outer rim over the metal shoe and at the heel. The heel 9 is spaced apart from the main wearing portion as shown in Fig. l. The wearing surfaces 11 are of less added height than the depth of the concavity 3, and thus it will be seen that as the weight of the horse compresses the pail, this weight is all borne by the heel and the wearing surface around the outer edge of the tread portion, and no part of the strain is borne by the center or frog of the foot, which is one of the important objects of the invention.
In the application of my invention, the metal shoe is first fitted into the recess 5 of the pad and both are nailed to the hoof in the usual manner by nails, passing through the web portion 2 of the pad.
The concavity 3 may be packed with medicine in case of diseased hoofs, or may hold a wet sponge in hot weather to cool the foot.
lWhat I claim is:
1. A resilient horseshoe pad comprising an upper or web portion having aconcavity therein and a tread portion having a groove for the reception of a metal shoe, a wearing surface partially covering the shoe, and a further raised wearing surface being less in raised height than the depth of the concavity in. the web portion.
2. A resilient horseshoe pad comprising an upper or web portion having a concavity therein and a tread portion having a groove for the reception of a metal shoe, a wearing surface partially covering the shoe and having inwardly extending projections so disposed as to leave the center open, and a raised heel portion spaced from the main wearing surface.
In testimony whereof, I affix my signature.
HARRY S. CARYL.
