Description
Dec. 10, 1929. v KELLEY 1,738,833
SAFETY LINE TERRET Filed Aug. 2, 1928 TL. Hell/ 6y.
THOMAS L. KELLEY, OF SALEM, SOUTH DAKOTA SAFETY LINE TERRET Application filed August 2, 1928.
This invention relates to a harness terret and has for its primary object to provide, in a manner as hereinafter set 'forth, a device of this character of improved construction, in which one of the reins may be inserted and held against any but longitudinal movement.
A further object of the invention is to provide a terret having a pair of spaced posts between which the rein is designed to be positioned on edge, these posts being rigidly secured within a ring which is split obliquely with respect to its axis.
lfhe invention will be best understood from a consideration of the following detailed description taken in connection with the accompanying drawings forming part of this specification with the understanding, how ever, that the invention is not confined to any strict conformity with the showing of the drawings but may be changed or modified so long as such changes or modifications mark no material departure from the salient features of the invention as expressed in the appended claim.
ln the drawing: Figure 1 is a front elevational view of the terret embodying the present invention;
Figure 2 is a top plan view of the same; Figure 3 is a vertical sectional view talten 5 upon the line 83 of Figure 2.
Referring to the drawing in detail wherein like numerals of reference indicate corresponding parts throughout the several views, the numeral 1 indicates the body of the terret structure which is of ring formation as shown. This ring is relatively broad and is provided with a base 2 from which extends a threaded stud 3 by means of which the terret is mounted in position upon the saddle or similar part of the harness structure.
l Vithin the ring there is secured a pair of pins or posts 4 arranged in spaced upwardly diverging relation and upon opposite sides of the axis of the ring and extending in the same general direction as the stud 8 by means of which the ring is mounted in position.
lhe ring body 1 is split as indicated at 5 on a line oblique to the axis thereof and diametrically opposite the base 2.
lVhen the present terret structure is in posi- Serial No. 296,991.
tion, the ring is so arranged that the faces thereof are positioned transversely of the horses body and a rein is placed in position therein by extending the same edgewire through the slot 5 and allowing it to come to rest on edge between the posts 4.
It will be readily seen that with a terrct of the present character in which the posts are arranged in upwardly diverging relation, the rein (not shown) will have free movement through the terret and the terret will act to prevent the rein buckles from passing therethrough thereby maintaining the reins in position when the same are slacked.
From the foregoing, it will be readily seen that the herein described terret is of simple construction, has no moving parts to become rusty and noisy, and may be inexpensively manufactured.
Having described my invention what I claim is A. terret of the character described, com prising a relatively broad ring body, means extending from the peripheral face of the ring for mounting the same in upright position, a pair of spaced upright posts secured within said ring and arranged in upwardly diverging relation, and means for introducing a rein to position between said posts, consisting of a split made through the ring body at an oblique angle with respect to the axial line thereof, the upper end of each post being positioned a substantial distance to one side of the split.
In testimony whereof ll hereunto my signature.
THOMAS L. KELLEY.
