HARRY LOYD FORSMAN, OF SOUTH VVILLIAMSPORT, PENNSYLVANIA;
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 652,840, dated July 3, 1900.
I Application tiled February 16, 1900. Serial No. 5,551. (No model.)
To LZ/Z whom t may concern: j
Be it known that I, HARRY LoYD FORES- MAN, a citizen of the United States, residing in the borough of South Villiamsport, (postotlice, Burlingame,) in the county of Lycoming and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Adjustable Oalk and Olamp for Horseshoes, of which Vthe following is a specification. Y
This invention relates to horseshoes in general, and more particularly to the calks thereof, and it has specific reference to the means for holding the calks removably and adjustably to the shoe, the object of the invention being to provide a clamp for holding the calk to t-he shoe in such manner that it will not be tions of the holding-screws with respect to the Referring now to the drawings, 5 represents a horseshoe of usual construction, the stock of the shoe being tapered toward the heels, and 6 represents generally the clam p for holding the calk upon the shoe. The calli-clamp comprises a body portion in the form of a plate '7, which may have any general outline and with which the calk may be made integral, or to which the call; may beattached, as shown, by screwing the stud ofthe calk 8 into the threaded perforation 9 in the plate7.;
One edge of plate 7 is curved upwardly and then inwardly, the upwardlybent portion lO being curved to fit snugly against the outer edge of the shoe, while the inwardly-projecting portion forms a flange l1, which lies against the upper face of the shoe or thereabove, depending uponthethickness of the shoe, it being understood that in practice the clamp is disposed with the body portion or 5o plate '7 against the under side of the shoe. At the side ot' the plate 7 opposite to the upwardly-projecting part lO is a .second upwardly-projecting portion l2, which is arcuate to con form to the inner curvature of the shoe, and through this portion l2 are formed a number of threaded perforations. Vith these perforations are engaged screws 14, which in the present instance are shown as three in number, the outermost or end screws 6o having conical ends l5, so positioned that they will lie with the sides'of the tapers thereof against the upper face of the shoe, so that as the screws are turned inwardly theywill have a wedging'action to clamp the shoe against 65 the plate 7. The central screw of the series of three is a simple form of flat-ended setscrew, which when turned up engages the edge of the shoe and acts to relieve the tapered screws from a part of the strain there- 7o against.
When it is desired to shift the position of the calk, the screws may be loosened and the clamp, and therewith the calli, moved along to the proper point of the shoe. Furthermore, the clamp and calk may be entirely removed when desired and may be applied wherever wished.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim is-- 1. A calli-attaching clamp comprising a plate having a calk thereon, the sides of the base-plate adapted to lie against the under face of a shoe and being projected upwardly, one of the upwardly-projected portions being adapted to engage over the edge ot a shoe, and the other upwardly-projected portion having a series ot threaded perforations, and screws engaged with the perforations and lying with their axes parallel with the upper 9o face of the base-plate, said screws having conical ends disposed to engage against the edge of the upper face f the shoe and wedge thel shoe against the base-plate.'
2. A calk-,attaching vclamp comprising a plate carrying a calk, the side edges of the plate being projected upwardly to lie at opposite edges of the shoe, one of the upwardlyprojected portions havingaange forengageand having a tapered extremity disposed to ment over the edge of a shoe andthe other impinge against the upper face of the shoe upwardly-projected portion having threaded and clamp the shoe against the plate.
perforations, a set-screw engaged with one of HARRY LOYD FORESMAN. 5 the perforations and adapted to impinge Vitnesses:
against the inner edge of the shoe, and an ad- W'. E. RITTER,
ditional screw at each side of the sebscrew J. HORACE SHALE.
