UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
CHARLES D. HALDEMAN, OF DES MOINES, IOWA, ASSIGNOR OF TWO-THIRDS TO O. V. KEITH, OF SAME PLACE, AND E. M. HALDERMAN, OF HUMES- TON, IOWA.
HORSE-TAIL TIE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 429,569, dated June 3, 1890.
Application filed February 20, 1890- Serial No. 341,227. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, CHARLES D. HALDEMAN, a citizen of the UnitedStates of America, and a resident of Des Moines, in the county of Polk and State of Iowa, have invented a new and useful Horse-Tail Tie, of which the following is a specification.
Heretofore metal bands have been formed in various Ways to clamp fast to a horse-tail to retain the hair braided or twisted and doubled and elevated, as required to prevent them from getting soiled and spotted with mud, and serrated surfaces or teeth on such bands bit the hair and damaged it.
My object is to prevent a clasping-band from biting and cutting the hair; and my invention consists in the construction of a tie from a single piece of wire and a single metal plate, as hereinafter set forth, pointed outin my claim, and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is a perspective view showing my tie open. Fig. 2 shows its ends detachably connected, and Fig. 3 shows it applied to a horses tail as required for practical use.
A is a coiled spring, that may vary in diameter, length, and weight, as desired It is preferably made of brass elastic wire and about six inches long in its normal condition, and adapted to be elongated to about ten inches by simply stretching it by hand.
B is a short metal plate pressed into concavo-convex shape, so that its outside'su-rface will conform with the circumference of a ring. One end of the spring-coil A is fixed to the inside surface and end portion of the plate by means of solder or in any suitable way. The end to which it is fixed is preferably made concave to engage a persons thumb and to indicate the end to which the spring- Wire is fixed when the two ends of the wire are overlapped and interlocked, as shown in Fig. 2.
To apply my tie to a horses tail after the hair is prepared, I draw the flexible and elastic spring-wire around the hair doubled over the end of the tail and lap the end of the spring that is fixed to the plate overthe other end and then press them together and within the curved plate, so that the coils of the two ends will interlock and remain fastened together. The hair will enter between the coils and remain clamped fast by the force stored in the tie by stretching the tie around the tail,and the smooth surface of the wire will not bite, or out, or damage the hair, While the tie is thus securely fastened to the tail and the hair rctained tied in its elevated and doubled. position.
To detach the tie I simply pull the two ends of the coiled spring apart as required to separate their interlocked coils.
I claim as my invention An improved horse-tail tie, consisting of a coiled spring A and a concavo-convex metal plate B, fixed to one end of the spring, substantially as shown and described.
CHARLES D. HALDEMAN.
