Patented May 27, 1930 UNITE STATE' PATENT orrlac-s WILLIAM BOSCHUETZ, OF IrIILWAUKEE, WISCONSIN HAME FASTENEB Application filed March 30, 1929. Serial No. 351,227.
The present invention relates to hame fastoners, and it is embodied in a simplification of the older construction of hame fastening means, and it has been designed especially to meet emergencies and enable them to be successfully dealt with and remedied without the loss of time and labor usually encountered under like conditions.
When subjected to an unusually heavy load or strain, the hame strap frequently breaks, and further progress cannot be made until the broken strap has been replaced. Doing this, generally involves delay in operations and loss of time, pending replacement of the broken strap, inasmuch as a new strap often is obtainable only from a somewhat distant,
point.
By means ofmy invent-ion, the delays are eliminated, and the restoration can be made immediately with materials which are always at hand.
Further, I have dispensed with the usual loops which are attached to the eyes at the lower ends of the hames, and have replaced them by specially designed buckles or links, with the result that the run of the hame strap between the lower ends of the hames is lengthened and a more effective adjustment secured.
Having thus outlined the nature and purpose of my invention, 1 will now describe its details of construction, and point out in the appended claims the novelty residing therein.
In the accompanying drawing:
Figure 1 is a View in elevation of the lower part of a horse collar and showing also the lower ends of a pair of hames, with my invention applied thereto in the position or" use.
m Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the specially constructed link, which is attached to the eye at the lower end of one of the hames.
Fig. 3 is a like perspective view of the specially constructed buckle attached to the eye at the lower end of the other of the hames. Fig. 4 is an edge view partly in section and partly in elevation of the specially construct ed link and buckle, showing how the hame strap is connected thereto.
Fig. 5 is a view looking from the under side of Fig. 4.
1n the drawing, the numeral 10 indicates the lower part of a conventional horse collar and the numerals 11 and 12, the lower ends of a pair of hames. Each hame is provided at its extreme lower end with an eye, usually formed in the metal binding strap of the hame.
Instead of the usual loops which are per manently attached to the eyes at the lower ends of the hames, I provide a specially con st-ructed link 13 closed at one end by a 'bar 14, and having cross bars 15 and 16, such bars being spaced only 'sutficiently to permit the passage of a hame strap there between. The specially constructed link is bifurcated at its other end, the furcations being perforated to provide aligned transverse eyes, through whichabolt or rivet 17 maybe passed. The bolt or rivet 17 is passed also through the eye at the lower end of the particular hame 7 to which link 13 is connected, in such manner as to form a durable attachment.
The specially constructed buckle 18 is closed at one end by a transverse bar 19, and provided intermediately with a parallel transverse bar 20, which supports the pivoted tongue 21 of the buckle. The end of the tongue 21 is adapted to be brought to a position of rest against the cross bar 19. The other end of the specially constructed buckle 18 is bifurcated, the furcations also being provided'with aligned perforations, through which, is passed a bolt or rivet 22, which is likewise passed through the eye at the lower end of the other hame.
An important feature of the present invention resides in the provision of the specially constructed links and buckles, directly connectedto the hames, so as to eliminate the usual intermediate links or connections, and thus increase the length of the run of the hame strap, whereby a longer pull upon the latter may be had by reason of the increased. length of the strap, and a better connection or coupling effected in an easy manner. V
Another important advantage residing in my invention, lies in the facility with which repairs can be made immedinately, if a hame strap be brokenby the strain to which it is subjected while carrying the load. No,
l special provision of an extra hame strap is required, but the exigency can be met, when a hame strap breaks, by cutting a suitable length of strap from one of the reins forming part of the harness. To permit immediate adaptation, and form a firm anchorage for one end of the strap, the cross bar of the link 13 is provided with a laterally extending pin 23. The liame strap 24:, is punctured near one end and such end is passed between the bars 14 and 15 of the link 13, the puncture is passed over the pin 23, and the end of the strap beyond the puncture is passed between the bars 15 and 16, in such manner as to provide a firm anchorage of that end of the strap 24 with the link 13. The other or free end of the hame strap 24: is then passed between the cross bars 19 and 20 of the specially constructed buckle 18, and drawn taut, a perforation being provided at a suitablepoint in the strap to receive the tongue 21.
The single run of the hanie strap effects a great economy in the amount of leather required in the maintenance of my invention. The deflection of the strap 2 about the cross bars 14, 15 and 16 of the link 13, creates scribed, enables ine'to avoid the necessity for doubling or looping the strap;
The'forms of the link and buckle illnstrated are designed for replacement of parts of hames already in use, but if such links and buckles are incorporated as structural elements during the manufacture of the hames, the open ends of the links and louckles would be closed by a cross bar, about which the eye at the lower end of the hame would be formed.
Having thus'described my invention, what I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States, is
1. A hame fastener comprising a link having a bifurcated end for attachment to one of the hames and a plurality ofcross bars an intermediate one of which is provided with a laterally extending pin, a buckle having a bifurcated end for attachment to the other of the hames and a plurality of cross bars one of which supports a pivoted tongue,
and a hame strap secured at one end to. the
said link by engagement with the cross bars and the lateral pin thereof, and connected at the other end to the said buckle by the tonguethereof.
2. A hame fastener comprising alink having a bifurcated end for attachment to one of the hames and a plurality of cross barsone of which is provided with a laterally extendsecured at one end to the said link by engagement with the cross bars and the lateral pin thereof, and connected at the other end to the said buckle by the tongue thereof.
3. A hame fastener comprising a link having a bifurcated end for attachment to one of the hames and a plurality of cross bars an intermediate one of which is provided with a laterally extending pin, a buckle hav- 'ing a bifurcated end for attachment to the intermediate one of which is provided with a laterally extending pin, a buckle having means at one end for attachment to the other of the hanies and a plurality of cross bars one of which supports a pivoted tongue, and a hame strap having a single run secured at one end to the said link by engagement with the cross bars and the lateral pin thereof, and
connected at the other end to the said buckle by the tongue thereof. v
In testimony whereof, I have signed my nan'ie at Milwaukee, this 11th day of March.
iIVILLIAM BOSCHUETZ.
