The clevis-bars b b are located at each side and secured to the respective ends of the pivot-pins b', forming the hinged joint between the nose-piece and .the side pieces composing the device.
Ordinarily the ends of the driving-reins D will be directly attached to the bars b b the same as to the bit-rings.
In handling or breaking animals that are f particularly vicious the reins may be run through the end of the snap hook or hooks b2, connected to the clevis-bars and attached to some convenient part of the vehicle or harness.
The snap-hooks are provided with a friction-roller d to ease the movement. of and prevent unnecessary Wear on the reins.
