M Ww@ UNITED STATES PATENT OEEICEl JOSEPH BURGER, OF FAIRBURY, ILLINOIS.
IMPROVEMENT IN NOSE-JEWELS FOR SWNE.
Specification forming part of Leiteis Patent No.117,368, dated Febxualy l0, 1874; application filcd December 3, 1873.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOSEPH BURGER, of Fairbury, in the county of Livingston and in the State of Illinois, have invented an Inlproveinent in Rings or Nose-Jewels for Swine 5 and do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had to the annexed drawings making a part of this speeication, in which like letters of reference refer to like parts, and in which-` Figure l represents a perspective view of forked ring or nose-jewel before insertion, Fig. 2, front elevation after insertion 5 Fig. 3, side elevation.
The object of this, invention is to prevent hogs from rooting; and it consists of an oblong plate having two parallel prongs or forks branching off at right angles thereto, and tapering each to a point, which are inserted in the hogs nose by a pair of pinchers or pliers suitably constructed for the purpose, as will be hereinafter more fully explained, and pointed out in the claim.
In the drawings, A represents a jewel for swine having two parallel prongs or forks, b, long enough to pass through the gristle of the snout, and which branch at a right angle from a small oblong plate, a, about one-half or onethird of an inch in diameter. These each taper to a point, c, the more readily to bend up when inserted, or during insertion, so as to prevent their return through the puncture, being inserted by first placing the plate a within a slot in the upper jaw of the plie-rs O, with the prongs b at a right angle therewith, in the best position for passing them through the snout, which is done by closing the pliers. The lower jaw of the latter, meeting the points c o after their passage through the snout of the hog, bends them upward or sidewise, and prevents the jewel from coming out.
That I claim as my invention is- Thc snout-jewel for swine, A, consisting of plate a, having double prongs or forks b b, tapered each to a point, and bent during insertion to retain the jewel, substantially as and for the purposes set forth.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing improvement in swine-jewels I have hereunto set my hand this 25th day of November, 1873.
JOSEPH BURGER.
