HORSESHOE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 499,976, dated June 20, 1893.
Application filed March 2, 1893.
for the purpose of enabling a horse-shoe forsummer Wear to be quickly turned into one for winter wear by fixing in a suitable manner a steel hoop or removable shoe underneath the permanent horse-shoe.
The device can be used on horse-shoes for either riding or driving horses.
The device is represented in the'accompanying drawings as adapted to horse-shoes for summer wear and also to one for the winter season.
, Figure 1 is an under side view of a horseshoe for a riding horse with the steel hoop or removable roughing shoe fixed thereon. Fig. 2 represents the same shoe partly in front elevation and partly in cross section. Fig. 3 is a similar view to Fig. 1 but without the steel hoop or removable shoe. Fig. 4 is a side elevation of Fig. 3. Fig. 5 is a longitudinal sectional elevation through the steel hoop or removable shoe only. Fig. 6 is a perspective view of a toe calk with its upper clip. Fig. 7 shows the front part of the horse shoe in perspective, but without the toe call: and clip. Fig. 8 is a perspective view of a heel calk with hook-shaped fastener for the rear. Fig. ,9 is an under side view of a shoe for a driving horse with steel hoop or roughing shoe attached. Fig. 10 is an under side view of the same with the steel hoop or roughing shoe removed therefrom. Fig. 11 is a side elevation of the same.
The riding horse-shoe is bent from a fiat iron bar and is similar to the usual machine made shoe, provided with holes for the nails and a channel or groove for the reception of the nail heads. The toe calk e is fixed u nderneath the shoe by means of a countersunk screw and is formed in one piece with the clip g, which latter is made to fit into a suitable recess in the toe of the shoe and is provided with a hole to fit over the pin 2: shown in Fig. 7. The calks. f, Fig. 8, are provided Serial No. 464,411. (No model.)
with a hookshaped part or claw n which fits in a corresponding slot in the horse-shoe. The said calks are also fixed to the horses shoe by means of screws with countersunk heads.
In order to roughen the horseshoe it is only necessary to unscrew the toe calk e and heel calks f and fix the steel hoop or roughing shoe b on the shoe 0.. The steel hoop?) is provided with hooks d exactly similar to those 12. of the heel calks f and also with a front clip 0, which is made exactly like the clip g on the toe calk e.
In the driving horse-shoe the heel calks f and the toe calks e are made in one piece with the shoe and only the clip g is screwed on. The clip g is fixed in the same manner as shown in Fig. 7. The heel calks f are in this case provided with a slot for the reception of the hooks d of the steel hoop b.
In order to fix the steel hoop b to the driving horse shoe, the clip g is taken off and the hooks cl of the-steel hoop b are introduced into their respective slots at the heel of the shoe and the front clip 0 is pressed over the pin 2 which is of itself sufficient to hold the steel loop I) in position by its own elasticity, and the screw his inserted for extra security. When the frost is gone the steel hoop is taken 0d the shoe by unscrewing the screw h, and by forcing a screw driver between the clip and the horses hoof, the clip is caused to slip oif the pin .2 and by now applying the screwdriver at the front of the steel hoop, the latter is pushed fully down and can then be taken off. I The device herein described has the advantage over the ordinary screwed roughing studs that it can be used in connection with either light or heavy traffic as well as for riding while the screwed roughing studs can only be used for light traffic and even then are liable to break easily.
For heavy traffic the roughening has hitherto been-done by the adoption of special icenails or roughing studs and roughening of the calks. This roughing lasts for only two or three days, while the steel hoop herein described lasts for a long time. Moreover this improved manner of roughing prevents the horses from hurting their legs as it forms a large surface which easily slides over the horses legs and in cases where horses kick each other the injury resulting therefrom will ICO What I claim as new, and desire to secure;
by Letters Pateiit of the United "States, is l 1. The combination with a horseshoe haying grooved heel pieces, of a removable and replaceable roughing shoe composed of an elastic steel hoop having itsheelportion, pro- 1 vided withhoe for etaqhehly qgegies that jsteel ghogpshavingamupward projection at its grooves in the heel-piecesof the shoe, substansl yi des i e i a 2. The colnbinationwith a horseshoe having a pin at its toe part and provided with grooved heel pieces, of a removable and replacing roughing shoe composed of an elastic 5 toe part for engaging said pin, and hooks at itsheel parts for detachably engaging the grooves in the heel pieces of the shoe, sub-- stantially as described.
In witness whereof It aiveuherellll Set y 3 hand in presence of two witnesses.
