LUG FOR OARRIBAGES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 306,750,dated October 2l, 1884.
Application filed July 16,1884. (No model.)
To all whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, BARTON B. HILL, of Lowell, in the county of Middlesex, State of Massachusetts, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Lugs for Oarriages, ot' which the following is a description sui-lciently full, clear, and exact to enable any per- G. The back-strap H is provided at either end with a loop, J, the end of the strap being son skilled in the art or science tovwhich said invention appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which- Figure l is an isometrieal perspective view representing` my improvement in use; Fig. 2, au enlarged side elevation of thelug representedas attached to a portion of the shaft; Fig. 3, a vertical longitudinal section of the saine; Fig. 4, a vertical transverse section, showing a modification of the lug applied to the pole of a carriage; Fig. 5, a side elevation oi' the harness-loop, and Fig. 6 a vertical transverse section of the same.
Like letters of reference indicate corresponding parts'in the different iigures of the drawings.
My invention relates more especially to the lighter class of carriages; and it consists in a novel construction and arrangement of the parts, as hereinafter more fully set forth and claimed, by which a more desirable and effective device of this character is produced than is now in ordinary use. rlhe nature and operation of the improvement will be readily understood by all conversant with such matters from the following explanation.
In the drawings, A represents Ithe body of the carriage, and B the shafts. v
To more readily illustrate the improvement, the carriage is represented as in readiness for use, or harnessed to the horse C. The harness is provided with an ordinary saddle,D, breastplate E, breeching F, and bridle or headstall secured to the cross-bar K. A short tug or trace, x, is attached to either end of the breast.- plate E, the rear ends of the trace being respectively secured to the side bar, m, of the loop J. A holdback-strap, f, is attached to either end of the breeehing F, the forward ends of the holdback-straps being respectively secured to the side bar, d, of the loop J. Aplate, L, provided with two upwardly: projecting standards, M N, is let into the top of the shaft B at a point which is opposite the loop J when the harnessed horse C isin proper position in the carriage, each of said standards being provided with a hole, Z, for receiv ing a horizontally-arranged bolt, P. This bolt is provided with a slot, 2'., and pivoted in said slot at fu there isa spring lever, Q, provided with a dog or catch, r, adapted to engage the standard N when the bolt is inserted in the hole Z in said standard. Attached at c to the inner face of the standard N there is a horizontally-arranged coiled spring, R,
-provided at its inner end with the ring t, the
hole through the ring and the coils of the spring being sueientlylarge to freely receive the bolt l?. The loop J is provided witha ring or auxiliary loop, w, adapted to receive the bolt P; and in the use of my improvement the bolt P is withdrawn from the standards M N, and the shaft B raised until said auxiliary loop is brought into proper position between the standard M and ring t, after which the `bolt is passed through the standard N, spring B, ring t, loop w, and standard M until the catch o' on the springlever Q engages the standard N, thereby securely connecting the harness with the carriage in a manner which will be readily obvious without a more explicit description. The plate L is provided near either end with a socket, b, which is sunk 85 in the shaft, the sockets being designed to receive the screws e, by which the lug is secured to the shaft, the screws passing through the shaft into a plate, h, on its under side,.as best seen in Fig. 3. with a pole, T, two bolts, P, are used, the standards being formed double, or with two holes, y, as shown in Fig. 4.
, It will be obvious that the ordinary holdback-irons and whiftletree are entirely dis- 95 pensed with, the standards M N, bolt l), and spring B performing substantially the saine v functions as those parts when used in connection with the loop J and a suitable harness.
It will also be obvious that the sudden jar 10o f or strain on the horse incident to the use of the ordinary whiffletree will be neutralized When the carriage is provided 9o hy the spring Il, rendering it nineh easier l'nr the horse to start the carriage than when harnessed in the usual manner.
It will he understood that two ol' the lugs are employed to eaeh Carriage, or one for either Shaft. The hole Z in the Standard N is eountersunl; or enlarged at its outer end to enable the bolt Il. to he readily inserted.
I do not confine inysel I' to the use ol' the plate L, as the standards may be so eonatrueteffl as to he attached directly to the shalt, nor to the uae et' the ring` i, as this inayalso be dispenswl with, it' desired. @ther means than the loop J may also be employed i'or connecting the lng` with the harness, il' preferred, withont entirelj,Iv departing 'from the Spirit oftheimprovenient.
Having tlinS explained my invention, what l claim isl. In a carriage-lng, the standards id. N, Spring R, and holt l), p roi'ided with the apri ng; lever Q, eoinbined and arranged to operate substantially as set forth.
2. As an improved article ol` nianulaeture, the plate L, provided with the sockets I) and Standards M N, having the holes I, the s ijlring R, provided with the ring '1, and the boltl?, provided withthepivoted spring-lever Q, haring,` the Catch r, elimstrueted, combined, and ari anged to operate substantially as described.
Spring i'or neutralizing` the strain on the horse in Starting the Carriage, said holt being adapted to engage a loop or other sliaft-snplgiort on the harneas, substantially as set forth.
ti. The standard Ndlaving the hole l, and provided with ar horizontallyarranged inwardly-projeeting Springglli, carrying the ring l, the holt l, provided with the spring-lever (g, haring;i the catch. r, adapted to engage the standard ill", thestandard M, provided with the hole the plate` L, provided with the Soekets I), Serewa c, and plate h, in Combination Withthe shalt Ill, snhfastantially as described.
