IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII/ UNiTED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
HEZEKIAH LATSHrUV, OF BATA'TIA, NE W YORK.
HAlViE.
SPCIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 897,734, dated February 12, 1889.
Application led October 1l, 1888. Serial No. 237,793. (No model.)
To all who/1t it 11i/ay concern:
l'e it known that l, HEZEKTAH LATsHA'w, a citizen of the United States, residing at llatavia, in the county of Genesee and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Haines, of which the follo\\.'iiig is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.
This invention is essentially an improved device for connectingthetraces to the hames of harness, the obj eet being to provide a connection that will be very strong and durable and readily detachable, and which will allow a free vertical and lateral movement of the traces to compensate for the movement of the animal and prevent binding and breaking of the parts, as will be more fully hereinafter stated.
',lhe invention vwill be fully understood and appreciated from the following' description, when taken in connection with the annexed drawings, in which- Figure l represents a side elevation of my vimproved deviee applied; Fig. 2, a horizontal sectional view ofthe same; Fig. 3, a detail side view of the hinged connecting-plates; and Figs. -t and 5 detail views illustratii'lg an improved eyebolt and ring-hook combined.
The letter A designates a portion of an ordinary wooden hame provided on its rear side with a pair of eyebolts, B, secured to the hame by being passed through it and riveted. The eye of the lower one of these eyebolts has formed integral vwith it a forwardly-extending arm, a, which is curved to coliform to the shape of the face of the haine, and this arm a is provided with an upwardly-extending hook, h. This hook?) is castof malleable metal, so that it may be bent close up to the hame after the ring c is inserted, and also so that the ring may be readily removed whenover desired.
C designates a metallic plate provided on its forward edge with an eye, d, which is piv oted between the two eyebolts on the haine, thus hinging the plate to the rear edge of the haines. This plate may be provided with forward projections or wings, e, to rest against the eyebolts and assist in preventing rattling, the. Cast integral with this plate and proj ecting out from its face is a cylindrical post or pin, f, and on the end of this pin is cast or riveted a iiange or button, g, provided with an upward extension or continuation, g. Riveted to the` inner face of this hinged plate C is a leather guard, D. Riveted or otherwise secured to the trace is a clip or iron, E, provided with an eye in 'its projecting end, this eye being of approximately the same shape as the button or flange g on the post f.
To attach the trace to the hinged plate C, the trace-iron is turned up in a vertical position and the button g slipped through the eye in the same. \Vhen the trace is brought down to a horizontal position, the button g will prevent its premature or accidental detachment. l
Uien the trace hangs down, as shown in Fig. 3, the extension g of the button will prevent the trace from becoming detached.
ln order to detach the traceit is necessary to turn it upward to a .vertical position and then slip it ot'f the button and post.
The special advantage in this construction is that it allows the traces a practically universal movement, permitting them to accommodate themselves to the movements of the animal. Another advantage is that it will not press or wear holes in the collar nor strain and break the tugs or traces at the rear ends of the trace-irons, as is frequently the ease with the devices now in use. It will also be observed that this device will readily and automatically adjust itself upon large and small collars, and will not serve to press the collar into tender partsof the horse, the devices now employed.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
The combination, with a haine provided with a pair of eyebolts, of a plate, (l, provided on its front edge with an eye and on its face with a lian ged or capped post, f, the said eye being pivotally secured between the said eyebolts on the haine, a trace-iron provided with an eye, and a trace attached to this iron whereby the trace may move both vertically and laterally, substantially as and for the purpose herein set forth.
In testimony whereof l aflix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
. HEZEKIAH LATSHAV.
