Description
UNITED STATES PATENT Ere IMPROVED HAiVlE-TUG.
Specification forming part o1 Letters Patent No. 'llll, dated September 1l, 1866A To all whom t may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN McINNEs, 9 f, Waverly, in the county of Morgan-andState ot' Illinois, have invented ai new flame-Tug; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full and clear description thereof, reference being had to the accomipianying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon.
Figure 1 ofthe accompanying dra-wings is a perspective View of' one of the improved tugs. Fig; 2 is a plan of it; and Fig. 3 is a side elevation.
This invention relates to an improvement in that portion of the harness for horses which is technically called the tug, or that portion ofthe trace which is attached to the haine.
The improvement consists in a'series of metallic plates, which are securely fastened to the tug-piece, in lieuot the holes which are generally made through it for the reception of the buckle-tongue; also, in the substitution ot1 a T-link, which is fastened to theei'tkot' the trace in lieu ofthe buckle in common use, the arms of the link hooking into slots cut in the ends of the aforementioned plates, which are turned up on both edges otthe tug for that purpose.
The tug is furthermore improved by the introduction ot' a plate of metal having a-lo p in each of its ends for the attachment of the other portions of the harness, such as the back and belly bands.
To enable those skilled in the art to make and use my improved haine-tug, I will" proceed to describe its construction and operation.
A represents the tugstrap, which is to be attached to the haine at its end a. Bis the trace, which is to be attached to the vehicle by means of its looped end b. O O O O are metallic plates, which are placed between the dilerent straps of which the tug is made up,
and there held fast by means of the sewing ,of the straps. Both ends of the plates C are turned up close to the edges of the tug, as shown clearly in Figs. l and 3. A slot, c, is also cut in these turned-up ends, and another, c', communicating with it and the outside of the plate, leaves the two hooked ends c2 arranged as shown clearly in Figs. 1 and 3.
D is a metallic plate fastened into the tug in the same manner as the plate O. There are slots out in its ends for the reception of the back-band D and for the belly-band D2. The forward portion ot' it may also be turned up in the form otl a loop, D3, for the reception of the trace B.
E is a T-sliaped link, fastened to the end ot' the trace by means ot' the strap E', E and E being connected together by means ot' the link e, which permitsthe arms e otl the link E to be turned up edgewise, so they can pass up through the slot c when it is desired to change the link from one to another ot' the pla-tes C. The arms e should be oval or elliptical in their section, so that when they lie flat, as shown in the drawings, they cannot rise up out of the slots in the plates C. This will be the habitual position ot' them when in use; but the link e will readily permit the arms a to be turned over so as to permit them to pass out of the slot c', as already described. A more durable and a cheaper tug will thus be constructed than by the old method of buckling the two parts together.
Having described my invention, what I claim is- The combination of the metallic plates O and D, also the link E, with the tug A and trace B, substantially as described.
