CHARLES MARQUARDT, OF DAYTON, OHIO.
DETACHABLE HlTCHlNG DEVICE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent,No. 296,764, dated April 15, 1884.
Application filed September 11, 1883. (No model.)
To ILZZ whom it'mmy concern:
Be it known that 1, CHARLES lIIARQUARDT, a citizen of the United States, residing at 'Dayton, in the county of Montgomery and State of Ohio, have invented an Improved Detachable Hit-ching Device; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, which will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
My'invention relates to improvements in detachable hitching devices used for hitching horses in steam-fireengine houses. The construction is such that with two straps-one directly connected to the snap-hook and the other with the bolt of the samc the horse releases himself by a forward movement when the door of his stall is opened. The object is attained by the mechanism illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure l is a side view of the snap-hook and the strap-connections. Fig. 2 is a top view of the foil-sized snap-hook.
Like letters designate like parts throughout both views.
The general features of the snap-hook are like those in use. The peculiarities of this construct-ion are the angle of the points of the hook and the orifice of the same to receive the end of the bolt.
A is the snap-hook, consisting of the hook with orifice for the bolt D, and loop for the strap B and cylindrical body. In the body is an orifice nearly the length of the same for To the end of this strap is likewise a ring, G,
which, when in use, is fixedly attached.
Thcuse of this device is to hitch horsesin their stalls in steam-fire-engine houses, and the operation is thus: The snap-hook is attached to the bit or halter ring, the end of the strap being passed over a pin in the jamb of the stalldoor, (see dotted lines,) and the closing of the door against said pin makes the hitching secure, the strap 0 being fixedly attached to said amb. WVhen the door is opened, the horse rushes forward, the bolt being held by the detaching-strap. The horse is freed or unhitched by his own movement.
Having fully described my invention, what'I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, 1s-
The snap-hook A, with support for the bolt in the point of the hook, in combination with the hitching-strap B and detachingstrap O,
attached to bolt of said snap-hook, substantially as set forth.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
CHARLES MARQUARDT.
