WH l P-SOCKET.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 323,452, dated August 4, 1885.
Application filed June 15, 1885. (N0 model.)
To all whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, ERASTUS WILLnn Soo'rr, of W'auregan, in the county of W'ind ham, of the State of Connecticut, have invented a new and useful Improvement in lVhip-Sockets; and I do hereby declare the same to be described in the following specification and represented in the accompanying drawings, of which- Figure 1 is atop view, Fig. 2 a side elevation, Figs. 3 and i transverse sections, and Fig. 5 a vertical and longitudinal section, of a whip'sock et having myinvention, the nature of which is defined in the claims hereinafter presented.
The plane of section of Fig. 3 is on line a b of Fig. 2, the plane of section of Fig. 4 being on line 0 (l of such Fig. 2.
The body of this whipsocket is of metal, and cast or founded in two separate sections, A and B, one of which, near its middle, is loosely connected to the other by two hooks, 0, extending from it through eyes (2 in the other. The metal of the body is what is termed malleable cast-iron, or is of a character to enable it to be bent so as to fix the hooks in the eyes. Above the hooks there are in the section A slots or eyes c, in one of which is a projection, f, to enter the eye of a spring, h, which, applied to the section A, bears against it and the other or follow section, and is arranged in the space between them, and is for the purpose of keeping the sections from rattling when the whip socket is affixed to a carriage and there maybe no whip in the socket, and the carriage may be in movement. Two hooked arms, extend from the front section, B, into the eyes c, and with them serve to hold the sections from spreading too far apartor getting out of shape when a whip may be in the socket and he accidentally or carelessly and suddenly pressed or bent laterally, so as to bring a considerable pressure or leverage or strain on either or each of the sections, tending to bend it.
The whipsocket tapers both upward and downward from its middle. The rear section has projecting from it two clasps, E E, for connecting it to a carriage-dasher, such clasps being of the kind usually employed in other whip-sockets by me for such purpose. Furthermore, the rear section, A, has a hooked spring, H, applied to and arranged with it at its upper part, as in other whip-sockets of this class, particularly that shown and described in the United States Patent 30.282872, granted to me, in which the said spring is fully represented. This spring is designed, with the dasher, to serve the purpose of a rein-holder when the driving-reins of the vehicle are drawn or inserted between such spring and dasher. A finger, Z, projects from the section A against each edge of the spring at its lower part, and is to prevent the reins from being drawn down too far, so as to become too strongly jammed between the spring and the dasher.
From the above it will be seen that the two sections A and B are not connected at their lower ends, but that there is to the foot of the front one a small lip, m, that extends from it directly underneath the lower end of the rear section.
To render each of the sections A and 13 light in weight I usually curve it more or less at its opposite edges, and have holes or slots in it, as represented.
I do not herein claim a whip-socket constructed in two sections, combined as repre sented and described in the aforesaid Patent- No. 287,872, my present whip-socket not having its sections connected at their lower ends by a rivet going through them; nor do I claim a whipsocket constructed as represented in the United States Patent No. 193,100.
The two fingers between which the rein-hol ding spring is situated prevent it from being bent laterally by the reins while being drawn from it.
The upper set of hooks and eyes serve to protect the lower ones from being broken away under the leverage or strain of a whip.
while such whip is being introduced into or removed from the socket, or accidentally pressed laterally, they being specially advantageous for such purpose.
I claim--- i. The combination of the whip-socket sections hinged or connected by hooks and eyes at or near their middle, as described, with a spring arranged in the space between such sec- 3. The two whip-socket sections connected tions and upon a stud or projection extending at or near their middles and also between their from one of them, such spring being to press middles and upper ends by hooks extended the sections asunder for the purpose as set from one section into eyes formed in the other,
5 forth. 1 all being substantially as set forth.
2. The combination, with the whip-socket I and its rein-holding spring, of the finger or ERASTUS WILLER SOOET' fingers projecting from the said whip-socket Witnesses: against or across the spring, substantially and ARTHUR G. BILL,
[o for the purpose as represented. FRANK I. HAMMETT.
