UNITED STATES PATENT CEErcE.
ROBERT SPENCER, OF NEWARK, NEW JERSEY.
ABSORBING AND VENTILATING SWEAT OR SADDLE CLOTH.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 40, [29, dated September 29, 1863.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, ROBERT SPENCER, of the city of Newark, in the county of Essex and State 0f New Jersey, have invented a new and Improved Absorbing and Ventilating Sweat or Saddle Cloth; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and distinct description ofthe same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, in Which- Figure 1 is a perspective View; Fig. 2, a
View showing the shape of the main or body cloth, and Fig. 3 a trans\erse section ot' the .saddle-cloth when fully completed.
The object ot'this invention is to secure a Saddle or sweat cloth to be used on military or other saddles, so that the ordinary stationary pads may be entirely dispensed with, the old plan havingthe tendency to hold the perspiration from the horse, through the impossibility of Ventilation or chance to dry, thereby becoming hard and ot' unequal thickness, thus creating heat, causing sore backs to the horses. My invention overcomes this difficulty, and will insure a safe, cheap, and durable saddle or sweat cloth, and also enable the soldier t0 dispense with the use ot' the blanket under the saddle, the objections tothe use of which, in the words of Capt. L. E. Nolan, are, that they accumulate dirt and dust in their folds; they constantly work out from under the saddle; in camp they must always be kept ready folded, and in case of surprise at night they are most inconvenient, for it'a man drops one he cannot ret'old it without inconvenience.77 In order to construct my said saddlecloth,
I take, trst, a telt cloth, A, Figs. 1, 2, and 3, i
and cut it externally in the shape desired, Fig. 2. I then cut out from the center ofthe cloth A, when folded together, a piece in the y By this form of an elliptic, K, Figs. 1 and 2.
ing the edges (left by cutting out the elliptic) together I cut out a piece of coarse felt. C, Fig. 3, to place along the bearings on the Wearing parts ot' the saddle. This inside piece, C, is formed ot a combination of cattle or curled hair, whit-h is found to be the best absorbent and the least liable to rot or shift under the saddle, and is kept in position by the eXterior piece, B, composed of the same description of feltor Woolen cloth ot' which the main cloth A is formed, and-is sewed onto and over the inside piece, C, in such a position and manner, as is shown in Figs. 1 and 3, so that the parts immediately over the horses back will be of one single substance, and thus be cooler for horse and rider, While the parts under the bearin gs of the saddle are thick and well padded. In order to prevent the inside pads, C, from shifting by the action ofthe saddle, Iquilt through all the parts, as shown by the tufts s s s, Figs. l and 3, and to insure ventilation a series Qt' holes,pppp, are punched through all the fabric, thus giving the sweat-cloth a chance for thorough ventilation and rapid drying when not in use. The holes p p p p may, if desired, be punched through the iiaps ot'A aswell as through the padding or partially through the same.
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent ot' the United States, is-
1. The ventilation of the saddle-cloth by means of the distinct perfor-ations p p p p partially or entirely through the fabric, substantially in the manner and for the purposes described.
2. The parts A, B, and C, in combination with the perforations pp p p, substantially in the manner and for the purposes described.
BO BT. SPENCER.
