SADDLE-HORN.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 279,438, dated June 12, 1883.
Application filed December 20, 1882. (Modelfin ment upon the metallic saddle-horn for which Letters Patent No. 232,763 were granted to me conjointly with John J. Dubruille, September 28, 1880, and in which said horn was provided with elongated lugs or branches for securing it to the saddle.
The invention consists of a-metallic saddle"- horn having its pommel on top provided with a leather or other like loose cover, and in which the pommel ortop, that maybe of metal, as well as the body of the horn, is formed of a removable cap secured to the body by a screw-fastening, and serving,when secured, to hold the leather or other like cover in place on the pommel, substantially as hereinafter described. By covering the pommel or top with leather, rubber, or other material of ani mal or vegetable origin which is a like poor conductor of heat", as leather, the metallic horn is better protected against the extremes of heat and cold, and the greatest objection which has been raised to saddle-horns having metallic tops is consequently removed. Furthermore, by making the top detachable and cov ering it with detachable leather or other like cover, held in place by the cap, not only is the cover easily replaced when required, but a cheap method of covering is provided, which will bring the horn into general use.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming-part of this specification, in which similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figures.
Figure 1 represents a view in perspective of a metallic horn mounted on a saddle and having my invention applied; also'showinga portion of the leather or other like cover on the top or pommel broken away. Fig. 2 is a vertical section of the horn in part upon a larger scale. Fig. 3 is an under side view of the cap forming the top or pommel with its cover removed, and Fig. 4: is a top view of the metal horn. or neck and body portion thereof with the top or pommel removed.
A is the metallic saddle-horn, provided with elongated lugs or branches 1) c d, andB the saddle upon which it is mounted. The upper portion, 6, of the horn is of circular form, with a screw-threaded upwardly-projecting socket, f, in its center. The top or pommel is formed of a removable circular hollow raised cap, g, that is constructed to receive centrally down through it a fastening-screw, h, which has a head that sits in a countersunk recess in the top of the cap, and a many-sided or angular shoulder beneath said head arranged to fit a reduced correspondinglyshaped lower portion of the countersunk recess or opening in the cap. This screw fits within the screwsocket f, and by its engagement with the cap 9, as described, provides for screwing on and off the cap by simply turning the cap.
0 is the detachable cover for the top or pommel of the horn. This cover, which is made of leather or other like flexible material that is a poor conductor of heat, is put freely or loosely over the cap so as to form a close fit on the upper surface and around the circular margin of the cap, but admitting of its marginal portion being crimped and turned under and within the hollow raised cap, so that when the cap is screwed down to its place it clamps said detachable cover firmly between it and the marginal portion of the upper part, c, of the horn.
If desired, for fine-finished saddles the screw h may be made to extend up through the leather cover 0 and have a rosette or ornamental head, and constructed with an angular shoulder, as described, be made to hold both said cover and the cap 9 to their places.
Having thus described my invention, whatI claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. The combination, with the horn A,with an upwardly-projecting threaded socket, f, of the cap 9, with a countersink in its head and screwed to the horn, and the cover 0, with its marginal edges tucked in between the cap and the horn, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
2. In a metallic saddle-horn, the combination, with the upper portion, 6, of the horn, having an internally-screw-threaded upwardly-project-ing socket, f, of the detachable cap 9 and its fastening-screwh, arranged to fit said is clainped to hold it in place, substantially socket, essentially as described.
as and for the purposes herein set forth. 3. In a metallic saddle-horn the combination of the leather or other lile flexible and OREN RUBARTS' Witnesses:
