UNITED STATES SALVADOR S. AGUILAR, OF SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA.
COMBINATION HALTER AND BR-IDLE.
Application filed April 30, 1924 Serial No. 709,999.
To all 107mm. if; may concern."
Be it known that I, SALVADOR S. AGUILAR, a citizen of Guatemala, Central America, residing at San Francisco, in the county of San Francisco, State of California, have invented a new and useful Combination Halter and Bridle, of which the following is a specification, in such full and clear terms as will enable those skilled in the art to construct and use the same.
This invention relates to a combination halter and bridle for horses and itsobject is to produce a device of the class described which may'be allowed to remain on the horsels head at all times, the bit alone being removed therefrom whe'n the horse is turned out'to pasture or left in the stable and not at work. This is an advantage in preventing the horses from contracting catarrhal diseases.
An object of the invention is toproduce a very light bridle consistent with the nec essary strength.
Another object of the invention is to provide a bridle bit with which to direct the horse which may be applied to the outside of the jaw of the horse in the case of tender mouthed horses or which bit frame may have a regular mouth bit applied thereto if desired.
Another object of the invention is to pro vide a very strong halter with a martingale attachment capable of holding the most unruly horses.
Another object of the invention is to provide a bridle which will allow the removal of the bit so the horse can eat with-out rcmoving the halter.
' Other-objects of the invention will appear as the description proceeds.
An embodiment of the invention is shown in the accompanying drawings in which the same reference numeral is applied to the same portion throughout, but I am aware that there may be modifications thereof.
Fig. 1 is a side elevation of the halter in use,
Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the halter in use with the mouth bit in place,
Fig. 8 is a side elevation of a portion of the halter showingthe application of the reins thereto, the auxiliary reins being applied to the bit, a chain therefrom passing under the jaw of the horse,
Fig. 4 is a side elevation of a portion of the halter with the chain bit applied thereto the front strap being opened to show the inside metal strap which passes over the front of the nose of the horse,
Figure 4 is a side elevation of one of the short studs for connecting the bit to the halter when the bit is not used in the horses mouth,
Fig. 5 is a view of a portion of the halter showing the means forattaching the bit thereto and showing the martingale,
Figure 6 is an edge view of the bit, Figure 6 is a viewofthe chain used with the bit illustrating the shape of thehook connecting it to the bit,
Fig. 7 is a front elevationof the bit, and
Fig. 8 is a front elevation of the bit with the chin chain in the place of the bit.
The halter has a front strap 1, which passes in front of the ears and under the forelock, the ends of the strap being connected to the head strap 3 on opposite sides of the horses head. The side straps 2 and head strap 3 are connected together by a buckle 4 and at their lower ends they are connected to the nose band 5 on opposite sides of the horses head.
The buckle 4: is also connected to the throat band 6, the opposite end of said throat band being connected to the strap 3 on the opposite side of the halter.
The back of the nose band 5 is connected by a jaw strap 7 with the throat band 6. The nose band has a ring 8 on each side of the halter, and it is provided with a metal strap 9 held in place by the leather lining strap 10 which is sewed to the outer strap 5 at the edges of the metal strap 10. The m'etalstrapends project beyond the ends of the strap 10 on each side enough to allow the bit or the bit holder to be connected thereto whenever desired. This metal strap has a hole at each end the same as the hole shown at 11, which is larger at one end than at the other to allow a large-headed stud 11 to pass in one position, but which cannot pass therethrough in another position. In order to secure this stud in place, there is a small flat spring 12 pivoted on the plate 9 to turn to such a position as to obstruct the hole 11 when the stud is in place. 7
At the back the nose band 5 has a lead ring 18 which is connected to the double martingale 14, 15 with the rings 16, 17 for connection with straps on the saddle cinch,
Ill)
- or with the bit passing through the mouth of the horse.
The bit consists of the two side levers 20, 21 connected together rigidly at their lower ends by the rod 22, and also connected together at their upper ends by the curved bit 23 which has the spring retaining rings 24,
25 at opposite ends.
There is also a chain 26 with spring hook linlis .2'4', 28 at its ends to be connected to the side levers of the bit.
When the mouth of the horse is too tender to allow the bit to be passed therethrough, the bit is used as shown in Figs. 3 and 4c in which event the chain is connected to the to; holes of the side members of the bit and the bit levers are connected to the halter by two short wide headed studs 11, the chain 26 being passed under the horses jaw.
The reins then attached in pairs as shown at 29, 30 and the leverage on the chain is sufficient to hold the most unruly animal.
If the bit in the mouth is to be used, two plates 31, 32 are provided and each has a short strap 33 with 'a flat headed button 34 to connect the bit frame to the halter on both sides, said plates being held in place on the ends of the bit 23 by the spring rings 24, 25.
It will be understood that the nose'band 5 may be lifted at the ends of the metal band 9 enough to insert the bit holding studs, but that when once in place said nose band aids in preventing said studs from coming out of the slots 11.
The martingale isordinarily connected to the ring 13 by means of the snap l3. The bit may be provided with a chain under the horses chin, as shown in Figs, 3 and L, or it may have the strap shown in Figs. 7
and 8 at 0, in the place of the chain, if"
desired.
It will also be seen that the chain, just under the horses chin is provided with a hook 4:1 for connecting it to the bit, and in order to prevent the hook from injuring the horse in any way, the hook has one member .42 turned outwardly therefrom so that it will not cut the horses jaw in any wa when in use bein erfectl smooth 7 b where it touches him.
lVhat I claim is as follows, but modifications may be made in carrying out the inhaving its ends connected to said bit frame and passing under the horses jaw.
2. A combine-d bridle and halter, comprising a halter, a metal :band extending through the nose band of the halter and having slots at its ends, a lever bit-frame, means to secure said lever bit frame to the metal band of the halter, a bit adapted to have its ends :pass through holes in saidbit frame and meansto secure the bit to said frame.
3. A combined halter and bridle, comprising a halter, a slotted metal band ex.- tending through the nose band of the halter, lugs adapted to pass through the slots of said metal bands, springs to prevent the lugs from passing out of said slots, a bit frame adapted to be connected to the halter by said lugs, and a chain having hooks to connect its ends to said bit frame the chain passing under the horses jaw.
4. A combined halter and bridle, comprising a halter, a metal strap extending through the nose band of the halter and having a slot at each end thereof, lugs adapted to pass through said slots, springs for preventing the lugs from accidentally escaping from said slots, a bit frame adapted to be connected to the nose band by said lugs, means for detachably connecting said bit to the bit frame and a chain having means to'detachably connect its ends to'the bit frame. l
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand this 17th day of April A. :D. 1924.;
SALVADOR s. AGUILAR.
