' UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
TELEMAOH US JfHERRING, OF LOWVRYVILLE, TENNESSEE, ASSIGNOR OF ONE-HALF TO H. M. DIXON, OF SAME PLACE.
HORSE-COLLAR.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 552,126, dated December 31, 1895.
' Application filed February 14,1895. Serial No. 538,428. on; model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, TELEMACHUS J. HER
RING, a citizen of the United States, residing at Lowryville, in the county of Hardin and State of Tennessee, have invented a new and useful Horse-Collar, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to devices for faster.- ing horse-collars, and at the same time providing for increasing and diminishing the size of the collar, and making the same more serviceable and durable.
The object of my invention is to make a collar which shall be capable of being adjusted to fit the neck of a horse of any size, and which, when so fitted, may be quickly and securely fastened and held to such adjustment.
My invention consists, also, in making the collar in two separable parts or halves, pivoted together at the bottom and adapted to be fastened firmly at the top; also, in certain features of construction and arrangement of parts hereinafter described, and pointed out in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective View of a horse-collar, complete, embracing the several features of my improvement. Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the two hollow tips, cuffs, or parts of the lower coupling. Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the yoke-piece or upper connecting plate, showing, also, the pivoted rack-engaging loops. Fig. 4 is a horizontal section through one of the sides of the collar at or near the upper end thereof, showing, also, the yoke and rackplate in section.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figures of the drawings.
A and A represent the two hollow tips or cuffs of my improved collar, and a the common pivotal pin or bolt connecting the two. The tips A and A are both made hollow or provided with deep recesses in their outer opposite ends, in which the lower ends of the two halves of the collar. are secured, as shown in Fig. 1. One of said tips, as A, is provided with a perforated tongue B, projecting laterally from and adapted to enter a corresponding socket or recess in the adjoining face of the other tip A. The pin a passes through perforations a in the side walls of the tip A, and also through a perforation b in the laterally-projecting tongue I) of the tip A. The projecting tongue B is rounded off at its upper corner, as at B, thus permitting the pivotal joint to be broken downward; but the same is rigid in an upward direction on account of a shoulder Cleft remaining above the tongue B abutting against another shoulder c on the adjacent edge of the tip A.
D D represent two metallic racks or toothed plates secured one to each half of the collar proper upon the outside surface thereof.
E represents a yoke-piece or connectingplate, preferably of zinc. This yoke-piece is formed in the shape of an inverted U and is provided with suitable wire loops E, pivoted thereto and adapted to embrace and hold the upper ends of the two halves of the collar, as shown in Fig. 1. The loops E are adapted to engage the toothed racks D D at any desired point, according to the size of the neck of the horse to which the collar is to be fitted. The two halves of the collar proper (indicated by the letters F and F) may be made in any desired form and padded and covered with any preferred material, according to the desire of the manufacturer, it only being necessary to make the upper ends thereof of a size that will pass through the loops E in order that they may be engaged thereby.
It will be apparent from the foregoing de scription that by disengaging one of the loops E from its rack D the upper end of the collar F may be removed from said loop for facilitating the application of the collar to the neck of a horse. The pivotal joint between the lower tips A A facilitates such opening and application of the collar, and the device, as a whole, is very simple in construction, not liable to get out of order, and may be quickly and easily adjusted to fit the neck of any size.
Various changes in the form, proportion, and the minor details of construction may be resorted to without departing from the spirit or sacrificing any of the advantages of this invention.
Having described my invention, I claim-- 1. A horse collar, made in two sections connected pivotally at their lower ends, in combination with a connecting yoke interposed be- J. K. HOW.IE. GRAIN YSTBAMER.
