CHECKREIN.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 523,464, dated July 24, 1894.
Application filed October 3, 1893.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ALBERT WHITE Cox, a
, citizen of the United States, residing at Hastings, in the county of Adams and State of Nebraska, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Oheckreins; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilledin the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
My invention relates to the class of checkreins for harness and is more especially adapted to the overdraw check-rein.
It is designed as an improvement upon my device for which I obtained Letters Patent No. 493,353, dated March 14,1893.
It consists in certain details of construction and arrangement of parts hereinafter more particularly set forth in the specification, illustrated in the drawings, and pointed out in the claims. Its objects are two foldfirst, to provide a yielding connection between that portion of the rein attached to the bridle or headstall, and the rear or looped end adapted to engage the check hook, which connection shall be neat, compact and symmetrical in appearance, durable, and effective in operation; second, to provide means whereby the looped end is effectively prevented from becoming disengaged from the check hook, and a common source of annoyance thereby avoided.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of my invention showing a portion of the spring inclosing shell broken away. Fig. 2 is a vertical transverse section through the line 2-2 of Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a 4 horizontal section through the looped end of integral with it, made by extending a narrow Serial No. 487,064. (No model.)
strip of the desired width of the check-rein;
posite end, which head is, provided with a horizontal opening, a, through it, to admit the passage of the strap B, composing a portion of the check-rein and shown inFig. 1.
Within the barrel is confined a spiral spring, 0, of a shape corresponding to the interior diameter of the shell, and shown in Fig. 1.
The forward end of the check-rein or overdraw, B, is passed through the opening a, of the forward head of the barrel or casing, and through the interior of the spring, 0, and firmly secured to its outer end, 0, by a loop, 6. It will thus be seen that a yielding connection is afiorded between the portion of the check-rein, B, and the loop, D, when the latter is in engagement with the check hook.
For the purpose of holding the check-rein in engagement with the check hook, I provide the loop D with a spring slide, shown in detail in Fig. 4. This slide is preferably composed of metal, but any other suitable material may be employed. It consists of the rectangular frame, E, having the side openings 6 e, and the central portion e. A seat or recess 6 is provided in the central portion to receive a U -shaped spring, F, which is secured thereto by a screw, f. The ends of this spring project downward and outward within the.
side openings 6, of the frame.
The strap or portion of the check-rein D, forming the loop, is passed through these openings a, between the spring and outer wall of the openings, as shown in Fig. 3, and the tension of the spring causes its ends to bear strongly against the strap at each side of the 55 looped end, and a head is provided at its opsage of a single strap, and by forming the loop D from an extension of the sides of the barrel, I am enabled to construct my device 1n a neater and more compact form than shown in my former patent, wherein a cylindrical barrel is used.
Having thus described my invention,what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patcut, is
The combination with the looped end of the check-rein, of the spring slide composed of the rectangular frame, having the side openings for the passage of the rein straps, and
the central portion 6', provided with the U- shaped spring secured thereto, having its ends bearing outwardly against said rein strap within the side openings, substantially as and for the purpose described.
In testimony whereof I aifix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
ALBERT WHITE COX.
