HAM E.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 4;? 5,863, dated May '31, 1892.
Application filed October 5, 1891. Serial No. 407,781- (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, EUGENE L. HOWE, of Cleveland, in the county of Cuyahoga and State of Ohio, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Hames, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying d rawings, forming part of this specification, in which Figure 1 is a front elevation of one of the hames. Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the same, showing the draft-eye sockets. Fig. 3 is a cross-section on the lineman of Fig. 1, and Fig. 4'. is a cross-section on the line y y of Fig. 1.
Like letters of reference indicate like parts in each.
The object of my invention is to produce a hame that shall embody the greatest strength, lightness, and symmetry, that shall fit evenly and smoothly on the collar, and that shall protect the collar from Wear and abrasion; and to this end I form the hame in substantially a V shape in cross section and of greatest Width at or about the point where the drafteye and breast-ring are situate and tapering thence toward the ends or fasteningeyes at the ends of the hame. It is Well known that the greatest wear and injury to collars is occasioned by chafing of the breast or hold-back chains or straps, and to prevent this wear and chafingI extend the forward flange of the hame at a point at or a little below the point of attachment of the breast-ri 11g, so as to form a shield which curves so as to con-form to the contour of the collar; and it not only affords a perfect protection to the collar from abrasion by the breast or hold-back chain, the shield lying between the collar and the chain, but it also holds the hame perfectly secure on the collar, so that it will not be drawn out of position, and the danger of displacement of the hame from the collar by backing is greatly reduced. In addition to this, the shield, being integral with the body of the hame, strengthens the same most materially at the point where strength is required without a material increase in weight, as the remaining portions of the hame may be made lighter than in the ordinary hame and without diminishing the symmetry of the hame in the slightest degree.
I will now describe my invention so that others skilled in the art may manufacture and use the same.
In the drawings, a represents the body of the hame, which is substantially V-shaped in cross-section, as is shown in Fig. 3, the forward flange I) being slightly concave, so as to fit properly against the collar. Ordinarily in V-shaped hames this flange is comparatively wide so as to have sufficient hold upon the collar, and thereby the weight of the hame is increased and its symmetry is impaired. I am, however, enabled to form this flan ge comparatively narrow, as full and sufficient support on the collar is afforded by the shield c. This shield c is an enlargement of the flange b at and below the point of attachment of the breast-ring, and it is concave on its inner face, so as to conform to the roll of the collar, and is of suflicient width to cover the top of the roll, so as to prevent the hold-back straps or chains passing forwardly from the hame from coming in contact with the same.
Formed integral with the body of the hame and on the rear flange (1 is the double bosse e, in which are formed the sockets for the re-- ception of the draft-staple f, and between these bosses is a boss g, having a socket for the reception of the bolt of the breast-ring. These three bosses are in reality integral. with each other and with the body of the hame, yet owing to the situation of the breast-ring boss between the bosses e 6 they are described separately. This arrangementis of great advantage, as the greatest strength, together with lightness and symmetry and avoidance of projecting parts'subject to accidental injury, is obtained. At the ends of the hame are the fastening-eyes.
It should be understood that thesize of the shield c and its design and location may be more or less varied according to the character of the hame, and, also, that I do not desire to limit myself to hames V-shaped in cross-section or to hames having the particular draftstaple and breastring connection herein shown and described.
Having thus described myinvention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. A hame having a shield projecting from its front face and arranged to cover the front portion of the collar at the point where the breast strap or chain crosses, and means proof the tug, substantially as and for the pur- 1o jecting from the rear face for the attachment pose specified.
