Application filed March 19, 1888. 'Serial No. 267,628. (No model.) i v To aZZ wwmit may concern:
Be it known that we, CHARLES ALBERT SUL LIvAN and JOHN DEAN SULLIVAN, citizens of theUnited States, residing at Windsor, in the county of Essex andProvince of Ontario, Cauada, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Fire-Protecting Hoods for Horses, of which the following is a specificat-ion, reference being'had to the accompanying drawings.
This improvement relates to a hood to be used to cover a horses head in case of fire, so thatV he may be readily led past it without frightening him.
It is well known that it is Very difficult to take a horse out of a stable or barn when a Y portion of the sameis on re, as the horse becomes so frightened as to be thoroughly unmanageable. object of our improvement, and for this purpose we have invented a hood designed to be readily slippedV over a horses head and arranged to cover his eyes so that he cannot see the fire, by which means he may be readily led past the same wit-hout danger or even diliticulty; and the invention consists in the peculiar construction, arrangement, and combinations of parts,hereinafter more fully described, and then definitely pointed vout in the claims. In the accompanying drawings, Figure l represents a side elevation of our hood as it appears in position when in use, and Fig. 2 a back view of the hood detached from the horse in two positions.
Referring now to the details of the drawings, A` represents the main frame, and B a` supplementary frame pivoted to the main frame by rivets G.' Secured to the main frame is a canvas or cloth covering, D, and preferably having openings d for the ears ofthe animal. This covering may be attached to the frame in any desired manner; but we prefer to secure it by meansof metallic strips E and rivets F, as'shown.A A
The lower end of the frame A Ina-y be provided with a fastening of any suitable design, and we have shown, as a convenient fastener, a link, G, which is secured to one side of the end a of the frame A and swings over onto the 5o other side, a. l
The operation is as follows: Supposing a sta- To avoid this diiiiculty is the,v4
ble to be `on re in such a position as would frighten ahorse if it were attempted to lead him v past the burning part of the building to get I him out of the door, the hood is taken and xdoubled up, as shown in dotted lines in Fig. 2,
and the lower part, a a', is expanded and slipped over the neck of the horsefimmediately behind the ears, and then 'allowed to assume its normal contracted position, and by 6o this means may be firmly secured upon the animals head. If thought necessary, the link G may be slipped over the end a', which will hold it in the frame firmer. The supplemental frame B is then dropped down toward the animals nose, and his leyes are thus covered so that he cannot see the fire, and he may be readily led past it without danger or difficulty. As soon as the horsehas been led past the firel y the hood may be readily slipped oli` and taken 7o back and put on another horse, who may be led out, and thus the lives of many valuable horses may be saved which could not be handled at all without the hood.
The hood may be slipped on over the halter, .75 and will notinterl'ere with the same.
We may sometimes dispensey with the frame B and allow the canvas D to hang down loosely; but we prefer to use the supplementary frame. We may also sometimes make the 8o' frames A and B` each in two parts and connect them by a hinge, as shown in dotted lines in Fig. 2. v
What we claim as new is l. A hood for animals provided with an eX- pansible frame, A, and canvas D, substantial] y as described.
2. The combination, in a hood for horses, of a frame, A, a supplementary franie, B, and a canvas, D,substantially as described.
3. The combination, in a hood for horses, of the canvas D, the frame A, the supplementary frame B, and the link G, alll substantially as shown and described.
In testimony whereof we affix our Signatures in presence of two witnesses.
CHARLES A. SULLIVAN. JOHN DEAN SULLIVAN.
