Description
-`insuTEn sTATEs PATENT oEEioE EBENEZER GATE, OF FRANKLIN, NEW HAMPSHIRE.
FORMATION OF HORSESHOE-IRONS.
Speccation of Letters Patent No. 31,781, dated March `26, 1861.
To all rwhom it may concern:
Be it known that I, EBENEZER GATE, of Franklin, in the county of Merrimack and State of New Hampshire, have invented a certain new and Improved Article of Manufacture, which I denominate Cates IIorseshoe-Iron; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification.
To enable others skilled in the art to make my improved article of manufacture, I will describe the same.
The figure in the accompanying drawings, represents a perspective view of a piece or section of the improved iron, which can be formed from bars of iron, fir-strolled in the form shown in said figure by passing it through properly prepared rolls, or by the use of a peculiarly formed die device.
A, represents a thin web, the surface a, being in this instanceslightly inclined, while the surface C, is nearly plane.
TheA part B, is much thicker than the part A, as fully shown in the drawings. The surface B, is grooved out, as seen at CZ, leaving parallel ridges or projections o.
The groove d, can be rolled or formed of any required depth.
The improved manufacture thus made is put on sale, and can be worked up into horse shoes by any ordinary blacksmith--the operation being as follows -A piece or section of the manufactured iron is cut off of just sufficient length Ato form one shoe, and after being properly heated is turned so as to bring the ends around to form the heels of the shoe, while the thin web part A, forms the inside of the shoe; surface e, the outside; surface C, the top; and surface B', the bottom. Holes for the nails are to be punched through the metal while hot, so that the heads of the nails will be in the groove d,
where they will be protected from injury by the parallel projections and c.
It will thus be seen that a shoe can be produced from this iron in a very short time, Y
and one too which will have a continuous calk-the projections b, and c, answering that purpose, while at the same time the shoe can be made quite light, and yet be strong, since the web A, adds greatly to the strength of the shoe. Then again the shell or hoof of the foot rests on the outer part of the surface C, and consequently is well and evenly supported by the part B,-the surface B, being the bottom of the shoe. The web part A, protects the foot of the horse from injury arising from small stones or other hard substances being forced up between the frog and shell. projection o, protects the heads of the nails from being acted upon by the drawing motion of the horses foot in walking.
Another great advantage of my invention consists in the fact that the shoes made from iron thus prepared will be more uniform, and consequently therewill be less liability of horses feet being injured by different persons in shoeing.
A thin piece or strip of steel can be welded or rolled upon one edge of the iron so as to form the parts Z2, and c, of steel.
Having described my invention, what I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent, as an improved article of manufacture, is-
Iron, or other suitable metal, rolled or fabricated into the form substantially as shown in the ligure and for thepurposes stated.
In witness whereof I have hereunto subscribed my name.
