HORSE-COLLAR.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 37 9,275, dated March 13, 1888. Application filed January 12, 1888. Serial No. 260,568. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, ABRAHAM C. JAooBs and GEORGE W. CHAPMAN, citizens of the United States, residing at Hillsborough, in the county of Vernon and State of Wisconsin, haveinvented certain new and useful Improvements in Horse-Collars; and we do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as 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 and figures of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
This invention pertains to certain new and l j ustably secured between the sides of a horse collar, which in practice will rest upon the top of the horses neck to prevent rubbing the same, said pad being capable of adjustment at any desired point, according to the size of the horses neck; and to this end the invention consists in the detail construction, combination, and arrangement of parts, substantially as hereinafter fully set forth, and particularly pointed out in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure l is a rear elevation of a horse-collar embodying our invention. Fig. 2 is a detail perspective view-of the pad. Fig. 3 is a vertical sectional view on the line 00 :0, Fig. 1; and Figs. at and 5 are detail views.
Referring to the drawings, A indicates a horse-collar of any desired or preferred form of construction, as the invention is applicable to any horse-collar now in use.
B B are two metallic plates secured to the inner opposite sides of the collar A, said plates being located at the point of junction of the forward and rearward pads, a a, so as to leave a space between the inner surfaces of the plates B and the outer surfaces of the collar at these points. These plates B are provided throughout their lengths with holes or recesses 22, as shown.
C is the adjustable pad, which consists, preferably, of two or more layers of leather suit ably stitched together,and curved on its inner lower surface to conform to the top of the horses neck, as shown. To the outer lower sides of this pad 0 are connected approximately Y-shaped plates D D, the same being secured by rivets or other suitable means, and the lower vertical portions of these Y-shaped plates have right-angular lugs or projections cl d, of approximately T shape, the outer ends of said lugs or projections being shouldered or extended, as shown.
In practice the pad 0 is secured between the sides of the collar by means of the'T-shaped lugs or projections D, the same being attached to the plates B by causing the shouldered or extended ends of said lugs or projections to be placed within any two oppositelydisposed holes or apertures of the plates B, and after being thus inserted, by turning said pad into the position shown in Fig. 1, said lugs or projections will be firmly held by the platesB by reason of the shoulders thereof bearing against the inner surfaces of said plates.
From the foregoing description it will be seen that the pad 0 can be secured at any desired point, according to the size of the horses neck,
the lugs or projections of said pads being capable of insertion into any two of the oppositely-disposed holes or apertures of the securingplates.
In practice, if desired, the collar A may be provided at its upper meeting ends with straps and buckles E E to unite said ends of the collar; but this is not at all necessary, inasmuch as the pad 0 will securely hold the sides of the collar united, and, if desired, said straps and buckles can be entirely dispensed with.
The advantages of our invention are apparent, and the cost of having different-sized collars is obviated, inasmuch as the collar provided with our invention is applicable to various-sized horses, as before stated; and another important advantage in our invention is 1. As an improvement in horse-collars, the I tures, of the pad having Y-shaped plates atherein described collar having the apertured tached to its ends, and the approximately T- plates secured thereto, and the pad having the [shaped lugs or projections, substantially as I 5 lugs or projections, substantially as shown and shown and described.

of the pad havin the lu s or projections de- 7 signed to engage holes o r apertures in said CHAPMAN IO plates, substantially as shown and described.
3. The combination, with the collar provided with the plates having holes or aper- "lVitnesses:
