BRIDLE BIT.
Application filed May 10,
the animal or toothed side of the bit may be presented toward the jaws, the construction admitting of changing the nature of the bit without removing the bridle from the head of the animal and without removing the bit from the bridle.
A further object of the invention is the provision of a bridle bit having cheek ringsprovided with parallel transverse bars and providing the bit bar with pivotally engaged headed studs on its ends slidably engaging between the parallel bars in the cheek ring, the bars on one of the cheek rings having their upper ends spread to permit rotation of the bit bar to reverse the bit her. said adjustment being adapted to be eiiected while the bridle is in position on the animals head.
The invention will be. described in detail hereinafter and will be "found illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is a view in elevation of one side, of the improved bridle bit,
Figure 2 is a similar view of the opposite side, i
Figure 3 is a sectional view on aplane indicatedby the line 33 of Figure 1, and
Figures 4 and 5 are sectional details on planes indicated bv the line 4+4, and 55 of Figure 3.
v In the drawings similar reference characters will be used to designate corresponding parts throughout the several views.
The improved bridle bit comprises the cheek rings 1 and 2. to which are secured the cheek strapsot the bridle as shown in Figures 1 and 2. The cheek ring 1 is provided with transverse bars 3 that are arranged parallel to one another throughout their length, while the cheek ring 2 is provided with bars 4 having their upper ends spread to form an enlarged recess as shown at 5, and the remainder of the bars are formed parallel. The bit bar 6 has one of its sides smooth as shown at 7 to provide an easy 1927. Serial No. 190,208.
bit, while the opposite side of the bit is provided with a series of blunt teeth 8 that provide a severe bit for fractious animals. The ends of the bit are provided Withreduced extensions 9 and pivotally engaging said reduced extensions 9 at one end of the bit bar 6 is a round stud 10 having a head 11 thereon, said round studslidably engaging between the parallel bars 3f Pivotally engaging thereduced extensions 9 at the other extremity of the bit bar 6 is a stud 12 that is rectangular in cross section and provided with a head 13. The stud 12 slidably engages between the bars 4' and held from rotation when between the parallel portions of said bars, but is adapted to be rotated and to rotate therewith the bit bar when the stud 12 is moved into the recess 5 formed by the upper spread portionsof the bars l, this rotation of the stud and with the bit providing means by which the nature otthe bit may be changed from an easy bit using the smooth side 7 to engage the animals jaws, to a severe bit in which the toothed side 8 engages the jawsof the animal. Also the construction admits changing .the nature of the bit while the bridle is on the animals head it being apparent that the only thing necessary to do being to lift the bit bar 6 until the stud 12 may berotated within the recess as hereinbefore stated.
What is claimed is I 1. A bridle bit comprising cheek members, said members having elongated slots, a bit bar slidably mountedin said slots and normally held against rotation, one of said slots having an enlargement topermit rotation of the bar to reverse the same, said bit havmg disslmilar edges adapted to be brought into contact with the mouth oi the animal through said reversal.
2. A bridle bit, comprising cheek rings, pairs of parallel bars arranged transversely of the rings, the pair of bars in one ring being spread at one point, a bitbar having ends slid ably mounted between said bars, the end mounted between the last mentioned pair of bars being non-rotatable between the parallel portions thereof and movable into the spread portion to permit rotation of the bit bar.
' In testimony whereof I aflix my signature."
