HARNESS-SADDLE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 361,936, dated April 26, 1887.
Application tiled December 1, 138g?. Serial No. 220,381. (No model.)
To @ZZ whom it may concern:
Be itknown that we, WILLIAM DAVE GooD- MAN and FRANK TUTTLE, citizens of the United States, residing at Paris, in the county of Lamar and State of Texas, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Harness- Pads, of which the following is a speciiication.
Our invention relates to an improvement in harness-saddles; and it consists in the peculiar construction and combination of devices, that will be more fully set forth hereinafter, and particularly pointed out in the claim.-
In the drawings, Figure l is a front elevation, partly in vertical central section, of a harness-saddle embodying our improvements. Fig. 2 is a detailed perspective view of the pad-former and the locking-plate therein. Fig. 3 is a transverse sectional view taken on line .fr :c of Fig. 1. Fig. 4 is a detailed inverted perspective view of the locking-plate detached from the pad-former. Figs. 5 and 6 are perspective views showing opposite sides of the link. Figs. 7 and 8 are detail views of the saddle-straps.
A represents the saddle proper, which is made of a leather strap of suitable width and thickness, and is provided with openings B,- which are arranged at equal distances from the center of the saddle.
C represents the straps which form the backband or girth, the said straps having near their upper ends openings D to align with the openings B, and at a suitable distance from the said openings D are made transverse slots E, for the purpose to be hereinafter explained.
F represents the bridge, which is made of Inetal and is of the ordinary construction, and is provided with the check-rein hook G, and has openings H, adapted to register with the openings D and B. Near the lower ends of the saddle-strap A are made vertical longitudinal openings l.
K represents links,which are made of metal and comprise the rectangular plates 7c, adapted to fit the openings I, and having at one end a shoulder or flange, 7a', projecting from one side,
the said flange or shoulder and parallel with the plate k, but on a different plane, and from the opposite end of the plate k, on the opposite side thereof, projects a T-shaped stud, 7a3.
L represents a pair of wooden pad-formels,
which forni the cores or centers of the usual v pads, and are preferably vconstructed of the form herein shown. These pad-formers are each provided on one side with a recess, -L, adapted to receive a lockiiigplate, M. The locking-plates are provided on their lower sides, at their edges, with depending flanges m', adapted to bear against the bottoms of the recesses L', so as to leave a space between the opposing sides of the pad-for1ners and the lockingplates- Near the upper ends of the locking-plates are made openings N, adapted to register with the openings B, D, and H. At a suitable distance below the said openings N are rectangular openings O, and near the lower ends of the locking-plate are T- shaped openings P.
R represents the tug-straps, and S repre- Sents the turrets, having the usual threaded shanks, T, and the nuts T to screw thereon.
The manner of putting together the various parts hereinbefore described, in order to form a saddle,v is as follows: The links K have their eyes kt passed through the transverse openings E in the straps O from the inner sides of the latter, and the said links are then caused to bear firmly against the inner'sides of the said straps in a vertical position. The saddlestrap A has its ends arranged under the upper ends of the straps C and in contact therewith, and the links K are caused to iit in the openings I near the lower ends of the saddle, and the plates of the said links correspond in thickness to the thickness of the saddle, so that the said plates are iin sh therewith. Then the links are fitted in the openings I, the openings B of the saddle and D of the back-straps register with each other. The locking-plates M are then placed against the inner sides of the pendent portions of the saddle, and are locked to the links by passing the T-shaped heads or studs 7c3 of the latter through the openings l? of the locking-plates and then drawing the latter upwardly, so as to cause the shanks of the studs 7c3 to enter the shoulders or offsets in the said openings P. This brings the openings N in a line with the openings B and D. The bridge F is then placed on the upper side of the saddle, with the arms or ends of the bridge bearing against the outer sides of the upper ends of the back-strap, and the openings H in the bridge registering with the openings B, D,
IOO
and N. The shanks of the turrets are then passed through the said registering openings and the nuts T are screwed onto the threaded inner ends of the said shanks, thereby Iirmly .clamping the locking-plates against the inner l pad-former blocks L are then placed on the locking-plates so as to cover the inner sides thereof, and also the inner ends ofthe turret- Shanks, the nuts and the studs or heads k3 thus preventing the said locking-plate and the projecting nuts and studs from working through the pad and injuring the horses back. The pads are then secured to the underside of the saddle and around the pad blocks in the usual manner.l
Ve have omitted the pads in the accompanying illustration, and have only shown the pad blocks or formers, as the pads are of the usual construction and are well understood by persons skilled in the art of making harness.
By thus providing the pad blocks or formers to cover the projections on the inner side of the saddle the said projections are prevented from working through the pads and injuring the horses back, as before described, and the blocks or formers also serve a useful purpose in preserving the shape of the pads.
It will be observed that the various parts of the saddle are secured together Without frietion, thus producing a saddle which is eXecedingly strong and durable, which is not likely to rip or tear apart, and which can bemannfactured at a very sinall cost. In the event that any portion of the saddle becomes worn or broken, the saddle can be readily taken apart and the worn or broken portion replaced by aV new one, thus greatly facilitating repairs and also greatly reducing the'cost thereof.
Having thus described our invention, we claim* In a harness saddle, the combination of the link K, having the loop at one end and the headed stud k3 projecting from one side, the locking-plate having the opening Pto receive and lock the said stud and thereby secure the link to the locking-plate, the latter being further provided with the depending flanges m on one side, and the pad block or former having the recess to receive the locking-plate, substantially as described.
In testimony that we claim the foregoing as our own we have hereto affixed our signatures in presence of two witnesses.
