UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
GUSTAVE C. RASCI-I, OF BURLINGTON, WISCONSIN, ASSIGNOR TO BURLINGTON BLANKET COMPANY, OF BURLINGTON, WISCONSIN, A CORPORATION OF IKTISCO NSIN.
COW BLANKET.
Application filed May 14, 1925. Serial No. 30,220.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, G'UsTAvE C. Rason, a citizen of the United States, residing at Burlington, in the county of Racine and State of lVisconsin, have invent d certain new and useful Improvements in Cow Blankets, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part hereof.
This invention relates to cow blankets, and the object of the invention is to improve the construction and operation of cow blankets in the manner to be hereinafter described and claimed.
Referring to the drawings, which accompany this specification and form a part hereof, which drawings illustrate an embodiment of this invention, and on which drawings the same reference characters 39 are used to designate the same parts wherever they may appear in each of the several views, Fig. 1 is a plan view of a cow blanket; Fig. 2 is an elevation of a cow with the blanket in one position of use; and
, Fig. 3 is a view similar to Fig. 2, but showing the blanket in a different position of use.
Referring to the drawings, the reference numeral 1 designates the cow blanket which is made of any suitable material and shaped substantially as shown by Fig. 1 of the drawings. The edges of the blanket may be, and preferably are, reinforced by tape 2 and a longitudinal stay 3 extends longitudinally of the blanket midway between its sides so as to extend over the backbone of the cow. A surcingle at is stitched for a part of its length near the front end of the blanket and is provided with fastening means at its free ends which are illustrated by the drawings as co-acting hook members 5 and 6, and adjustability of the length of the surcingle is obtained by looping one free end through one of the hook members and securing it to a slider 7. A breast strap is provided by stitching tapes 8 and 9 to the blanket and to the surcingle 4 and a buckle 10 is secured to the blanket and the tape 8, while a loop 11 is secured to the blanket and to the other tape 9. A strap 12 is provided with a snap hook 13 and adjustability is secured by engaging the tongue 14 of the buckle 10 in the proper hole of the holes 15 in the strap 12. When the blanket is in use on a cow, the surcingle 4 will pass around the body of the cow back of her shoulders and the snap hook 13 will be engaged with the loop 11 under the neck of the cow, as will be readily understood from an inspection of Figs. 2 and 3 of the drawings.
Hind leg surcingles 16 and 17 may he made by stitching a tape 18 to the blanket and to the stay 3 in such a manner that the point of attachment at the stay 3 is forward of the hips of the cow so that the leads of these surcingles will be downwardly in front of the cows hips. The ends of the tape 18 are illustrated as provided with ring members 19 and 20. Tapes 21 and 22 are stitched on the outside of the blanket, so as to be substantially parallel with the parts of the tape 18, and they extend under the blanket and through slits 23 and 2 1 in the blanket to the outside of the blanket, and are provided with snap hooks 25 and 26 which are adapted to engage with ring members 19 and 20. The hind leg surcingles are made adjustable in length by being looped through the ring members 19 and 20 and secured to sliders 27 and 28.
It is desirable, when milking a cow, which is wearing a blanket, to turn the blanket up out of the way. Cows are milked from the off-side and I provide means for holding the blanket up out of the way during the milking operation The end of the tape 18 on the right hand side of the blanket may be left free beyond the ring member 20, or an additional piece of tape may be provided for the purpose to be described. A flat hook 29 is secured by a piece of tape 30 to the blanket and to the tape 18 and the end of the tie 31 can be slipped into the flat hook 29 and held fast to form a loop for securing the cows tail to keep the cow from switching her tail. A loop 32 is provided on the blanket and can be conveniently formed by stitching a short piece of tape 33 to the blanket by its ends.
It will be apparent that the tape 33 can be hooked over the fiat hook 29 to hold up the lower rear edge of the blanket. It will also be apparent that the tie 31 can be slipped through the loop 32 and caught in the flat hook 29 to hold up the lower rear edge of the blanket as shown by Fig. 3 of the drawings, and it will also be apparent, as shown by Fig. 3 of the drawings, that the cows tail may be held by the tie 31 at the same time thaLthe lower rear edge of the blanket is held up by the tie 31.
It will, of course, be readily understood, that there will be no particular pull on the "blanket tending to displace its position on the cow when the lower rear edge of the blanket is hooked up and that when the cows tail is tied up, the strain tending to displace the blanketesideways is resisted by the hind leg surcingle which encircles the opposite hind leg of the cow and the diago nal leads of the tape 18 causes the longitudinal pull on the blanket to be resisted by the stay 3 and the breast strap.
hat I claim is:
1. The combination with a cow blanket provided with hind leg surcingles, a tie on one of; said sureingles, and means oooperatmg with said tie for seourmg a lower rear edge of the blanket in a raised position.
2. The combination with a cow blanket, of means for securing the lower rear edge of the blanket in a raised position, includ ing a tie for holding the tail of a cow.
The combination with a cow blanket provided with a breast strap and a stay, of surcingles secured to said stay at a point forward of the positions of a cows hips and extending rearwardly and downwardly and means for supporting a cows tail from one of said surcingles.
'In witness whereof I hereto affix my signature. 7
