J'. M. FLAUTT, OF REEDSBURG, VISGONSIN.
RIDING-SADDLE.
Specilication forming part of Letters Patent No. 45,235, dated November 29, 1864.
T0 all whom, it may concern:
Beit known that I, J. M. FLAUTT, of Reedsburg, in the county 4of Sauk and State ot1 Wisconsin,have invented a new and useful Improvement in Riding-Saddles; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable others skilled inthe art to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, making a part of this specification, in which Figure l represents a longitudinal vertical section of a saddle-tree constructed according to my invention, when arranged for. an ordinary saddle, the plane of section being indicated by the line x Fig. Fig.2 is a plan or top View ot' the same when arranged for a side-saddle. Fig. 3 is a transverse vertical section ot' the pommel detached, the plane of section being indicated by the line y y, Fig. 2.
Similar letters of reference indicate like parts.
rlhis invention consists in the application to an ordinary saddle of a pominel which is composed ot' two distinct parts and connected to the saddletree in such a manner that the saddle can be readily changed from an ordinary to a side saddle, and tha-t one and the same saddle serves the double purpose of an ordinary and ot' a side saddle.
A represents a saddle-tree constructed of wood or any other suitable material in the usual form and manner. The pommel B of this saddle-tree is composed of two distinct parts, a l), and each of these two parts is provided with suitable hooks and spring-catches to secure the saine to the tree A.
C is a plate which is firmly attached to the top of the tree A, and this plate is provided with two sockets, c, to receive the hooks d of the part a., and with two sockets, e, which receive the hooks f of the part b of the pommel when the saddle is rigged up for an ordinary saddle, as shown in Fig. 1. In that case the spring-catch g of the part c extends under a lip, h, in the body ofthe tree, and the springcatch i ofthe part b in a socket, j, in the plate C, and the two parts are locked by the catch 7tcatching over the top edge of part b.
lf it is desired to rig up the saddle for a side saddle, the catch k is released by pressing it up, and the part c can now be turned back so that the hooks d pass out ofthe sockets c,
Y and said part c can be taken oft'. The part b is turned forward and removed in the same manner as the part c, and both parts are attached to the side of the tree, as clearly shown in Fig. 3. The hooks d of the part (o catch into sockets lin the plate U, and the spring-catch g catches over a lip, m, in the side ot the tree, and in the same manner the hooks j' of the part b drop into sockets a in the plate G and its spring-catch t' catches over a lip, o, in the side ot' the tree. Both pieces a b are thereby firmly secured to the tree and the saddle is changed into a side saddle in a few minutes.
It is obvious that the manner of fastening the two parts a b ofthe pommel to each other and to the saddle-tree can be changed in various ways without departing from the essen` tial principles ot' my invention.
Having thus described iny invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- The application to an ordinan y saddle ot' a pommel which is composed of two distinct parts and connected to the saddle-tree, substantially in the manner herein specified, so that the saddle can be readily changed from an ordinary to a side saddle.
J. M. FLAUTT.
