GEORGE M. BURGER, or DETROIT, MICHVIVGAN nonsnsnon Application filed March 18, 1932.. Serial No.-599,757.
This invention relates to improvements in horseshoes, the general object of the invention being to provide means for detachably attaching calks to the shoe in such a manner that the calks can be removed and replaced without taking the shoe off the horses hoof.
Another object of the invention is to make each call: of substantially L-shape with a horizontal transverse opening in the shoe for receiving said calk so that one limb of the call; will pass horizontally through the opening and the other will depend vertically from the shoe with the upper end of the vertical portion bearing against a part of the shoe.
This invention also consists in certain other features of construction and in the combinationandarrangement of the several parts to be hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawing, and specifically pointed out in the appended claim.
In describing the invention in detail, reference will be had to the accompanying drawing wherein like characters denote like or correspondin parts throughout the sev eral views, and in which 2 Figure 1 is a bottom plan view of the improved shoe with parts in section,
' Fig. 2 is a section on line 2-2 of Fig. 1,
and
Fig. 3 is a perspective View of one of the calks.
In the drawing the letter A indicates the horseshoe which is formed with a thickouter end of each opening, opening through the outer edge of the enlargement. Each opening tapers from its outer edge to its inner end as shown. p
The toe calk is shown at): and the heel calks at 5. Each calk is of substantially L'- shape with one limb 6 passing through an opening 3, this limb being of wedge shape to snugly fit the opening so that it will be held therein by friction, and the other limb 6 of each calk depends vertically from the shoe and this limb 6 is of greater width i155 than the other limb so as to form the shoulders 7 at the sides of the top part of the portion. 6. s
As will be seen by spacing each enlargement inwardly from the outer edge of the 1 shoe,the top of the vertical part of the calk will rest against an under part of the shoe with the shoulders 7 resting against the other portions of the shoe while portions of the openings 3 areextended throughthe bottom part of the shoe to receive the outer end of the part 6 as clearlyshown in Fig. 2.
Whenever desired, suitable means may be used for holding the calks in place, such means being threaded reduced parts 8 on the inner ends of the calks for receiving nuts 9, or openings 10 formed in the inner ends of the calks to receive set-screws l1.
By having the calks entering the openings 3 and extending inwardly from the side '75 edges of the shoes, the calks can be readily removed and replaced without taking the shoe off the horses foot; and it will of course be understood that various kinds of calks may be used with the shoe, since in winter '80 time longer calks would be used than in the summer time. I
It is thought from the foregoing descrip tion that the advantages and novel features of the invention will be readily apparent. .85
It is to be understood that changes may, be made-in the construction and in the combination and arrangement of the several parts provided that such changes fall within the scope of the appended claim. r .9
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new is A horseshoe having a lateral wedge-shaped opening therein,extending from the outer edge of the shoe through the inner edge, an I1 enlargementon the under face of the shoe through which a portion of the opening passes, the outer edge of'said enlargement being spaced from the outer edge of the shoe, an L-shaped calk having one limb passing through the opening, the other limb extending downwardly from the shoe, said other limb being of greater width than the first limb to provide shoulders at the upper 5 end of said upper limb which are located one at each side of the first limb, said shoulders engaging the under face of the shoe, and the limb of the calk which enters the opening being of wedgeshape, and means for detachably fastening the calk in the opening, such means consisting of a member threaded to a part of the inner end of the horizontal limb of the calk and engaging an inner edge of the shoe.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature.
GEoRGE M. BURGER.
