IMPROVEMENT IN SNOW-PLATES FOR HORSESHOES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 209,983, dated November 19, 1878 application iiled May 29, 1878.
To all whom it may concern Beit known that I, IVORY QUINBY, of the city of Salem, in the county of Essex and State of Massachusetts, have invented an Improved Steel Snow -Plate for Horseshoes and I do hereby declare that the following, taken in connection with the drawings which accom. pany and forin a part of this specification, is a description of my invention sufficient to enable those skilled in the art to practice it.
The object of my invention is to prevent snow from collecting or balling upon the under side of the feet of horses by providing a plate which can be readily attached to or detached from the shoes while upon the horses feet.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure l shows the under side otl a horses shoe with my plate attached. Fig. 2 is a sectional View on line a a ot' Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is aview showing the shoe and plate in section and the remaining parts in elevation; and Fig. 4is a top view ofa shoe, showing the manner in which the plate is held in position.
A represents the plate, to which are rmly riveted the guides or bearings B B, which serve to hold in position the lugs C O. Oonnecting and operating these lugs is a rightandsleft screw, D, with its middle enlarged and pierced with holes E, for the admission of one end of a lever.
The application of my invention is as fol lows: When the shoe is formed indentations F F are made in the upper inner edge thereof, and the shoe attached to the horses foot, in the ordinary manner. The plate A is placed in position against the shoe, and a rod or lever inserted, through an opening, G, in the plate A, into the holes E in the right-and-left screw D. The moving of this lever in one direction forces the 'lugs O C outward and into the indentations F F in the shoe. These indentations and the outer ends ofthe lugs are so beveled that as the lugs are forced outward they impinge against the beveled surfaces H H of the shoe, thereby clamping and holding the plate firmly against the under face ot' the shoe. The reverse movement of the 1ever will draw back the lugs and free the plate from the Shoe.
I claim- In combination with a horscs shoe, the plate kA, when held in position by the lugs O C and right-and-left screw D, substantially as shown and described.
IVORY QUIN BY.
