PATENT OFFICE FREDERICK J. HANNAH, 0F STRATFORD, ONTARIO, CANADA, ASSIGNOR OF ONE-HALF TO JOSEPH H. HILL, 0]? TORONTO, ONTARIO, CANADA HALTER Application filed October 13, 1927, Serial No. 225,929, and in Canada October 13, 1926.
The invention relates to improvements in halters as described in the present specification and shown in the accompanyingdrawings that form a part of the same.
The primary object of the invention is to provide a halter so constructed that any pull on the hitch strap, such as that resulting from the animal jerking its head, will result in the tightening of the halter around the head, thus making it impossible for fractious horses, or other animals, to free themselves by continued pulling on the hitching strap.
And generally the objects of the invention are to provide a halter which will be efl'icient in its operation, of durable construction and inexpensive to produce.
The invention consists in the novel features of construction, arrangements and combinations more particularly pointed out hereinafter.
In the drawings Figure 1 is a side view of a horses head with the halter in position thereon.
Figure 2 is a perspective View of the halter.
Like numerals of reference indicate corresponding parts in the various figures.
Referring to the drawings 3 is a head strap adapted to fold over the head of the animal behind the ears and to extend downwardly at each side of the head to a point slightly above the mouth and carrying at its ends suitable ring fittings 4 to each of which is secured one end of a nose strap 5 adapted to extend around the face of the animal, said head strap being provided with suitable means, such as a buckle 6, for adjusting the length thereof to conform to the length of the head of the animal to which it is to be applied.
7 is an adjustable neck strap, or .band, adapted to extend around the neck of the animal and being of a length to snugly fit around the neck below the gullet, said strap being connected to the head strap 3 by means of a connecting piece 8 extending longitudinally of the arch of the neck, said strap at its ends carrying a ring 9 and a snap buckle 10 respectively, adapted to be brought into locked engagement with each other to hold the said strap around the neck and absolutely prevent same from passing over the head.
11 is a chin strap permanently secured at one end to the ring 4 at one side of the halter and passing around thechin of theanimal through the ring 9 carried by the neck strap and through the ring 4: at the other side of the halter and preferably being provided with a terminal ring 12 for the purpose of conveniently securing a hitch strap 13 thereto.
It will be apparent that any pull on the free end of the strap 11 will result in drawing together the ends of the head and neck straps and thus tightening the halter uniformly over the head and neck and absolutely preventing displacement thereof.
The fitting of the halter to the animal is very simple, in that it is simply necessary to place the head and neck straps over the head with the nose of the animal positioned between the straps 5 and 11 and to snap the buckle 10 to the ring 9, Whereas to remove the halter it is necessary only to disengage said buckle 10 from the ring 9 and withdraw the halter.
What I claim is In a halter, in combination, a head strap adapted to fold over the head of an animal and extend downwardly at each side thereof, a nose strap connecting the ends of said head strap, an adjustable neck band, and a chin strap having permanent connection at one end with that end of said head strap positioned at one side of the head of the animal and having running connection with that end of said head strap positioned at the other side of the head of the animal and also having intermediate running connection with said neck band.
Signed at Toronto, Ont, this 3rd day of September, 1927.
FREDERICK J. HANNAM.
