Description
UNITED STATES PATENT OEEICE.
IMPROVEMENT IN HORSESHOES.
Specicatou forming part of Letters Patent No. 57,346, dated August 21, 1866.
. To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, WILLIAM LILZENBERof,y
of Macomb, McDonough county, State of Illinois, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Horseshoes; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable others skilled in the art to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, in which- Figure l is a bottom view of my improved horseshoe, showing a set of winter callIs attached. Fig. il is a sectional view of the same, taken through the line w a', Fig. 1.
Similar letters ot' reference indicate like parts.
My invention has for its object to furnish an improved horseshoe the calks of which are removable, and the winter-callrs both removable and reversible; and it consists of an improved horseshoe formed by combining with the main part of the shoe heel and toe calks, so constructed with double lian ges that when one flange has become worn and dull the calks may be reversed and-the other iian ge used, and which may be removed and replaced with new callis without removing the main part of the shoe from the horscls foot.
AA is the main part or body ofthe shoe, which is made of the ordinary shape and attached to the hoof of thehorse in the ordinary Ina-nner, except that it has one or two holes formed in the middle part or toe of the shoe and one at each end or heel, having screwthreads out therein for the attachment of the calks. The toe-call; B is formed as shown in Figs. l and 2-that is, it is bent up, so that it-s parts or iianges stand at an angle with each other, as shown in Fig. 2. These parts or anges are both so formed that either auge may be applied to the shoe, the other ange serving as the calk. One or two holes are formed through each ange of the toe-calks and one through each ange of the heel-calks C, corresponding with the holes through the main part or body A of the shoe.
The callIs B and C are attached to the body A of the shoe byscrews passing through the flanges andsorewing into the holes formed in the said shoe A, as before described. The calks, when worn or dulled, maybe reversed by removing the screws and screwing the other danges4 fast to the body of the shoe. rlhe heel-calks O are also made with two parts or iianges set at an angle with each other, as shown in Figs. l and 2, and they are reversible in the same Inanner, except that the callrs must be exchanged-that is, the call; C, on one end or heel of the body A, when reversed, must be placed upon the other end or heel of the shoe.
The calks B and O may be reversed or eX- changed for new, whenever desired, in a few minutes, without having to take the horse to a blacksmith or to remove the main part A of the shoe from the foot of the horse.
To give additional strength to the attach ment of the calks, the toe and heel parts of the body A may be made with a slight projecting flange, as shown in Figs. 2 and 3. This gives a firmer seat to the calks and partly relieves the screws from the strain.
The drawings represent the calks as heilig held by one screw, and in genera-l this will be found to be sufficient; but in some cases it may be advisable to use more than one screw for this purpose, as before described.
I claim as new and desire-to secure by Letters Patent- Oombinin g with the main part A of the shoe the removable and reversible calks B and O, constructed and applied substantially as herein described, and for the purpose set forth.
WILLIAM LI'IZENBERG.
