NITED STATES PATENT NECK-YOKE STOP FOR VEHICLE-POLES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 665,531, dated January 8, 1901.
Application filed November 2, 1900. Serial No. 35,263. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, ANDREW F. KEETER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Yellville, in the county of Marion and State of Arkansas, have invented a new and useful Neck-Yoke Stop forVehicle-Poles, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to vehicle-poles, and has for its object to provide the same with an improved adjustable neck-yoke stop which may be conveniently applied to any ordinary pole and arranged so as to be adjusted longitudinally thereon to accommodate-draft-animals of different sizes.
With these and other objects in view the presentinvention consists in the combination and arrangement of parts, as will be hereinafter more fully described, shown in the accom panying drawings, and particularly pointed out in the appended claims, it being understood that changes in the form, proportion, size, and minor details may be made within the scope of the claims without departing from the spirit or sacrificing any of the ad vantages of the invention.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of the forward end of an ordinary vehicle-pole having the improved neck-yoke stop applied thereto. Fig. 2 is a side elevation thereof, showing the stop adjusted rearwardly, parts being broken away to show the connection between the device and the pole. Fig. 3 is a detail perspective view of the stop removed from the pole.
Like characters of reference designate corresponding parts in all of the figures of the drawings.
Referring to the drawings, 1 designates the forward end portion of an ordinary vehiclepole, which is provided with the usual substantially U-shaped cap or iron 2, longitudinally embracing the extremity of the pole and having its intermediate rounded portion projected beyond the tip of the pole, so as to form a ring orieye 3, with which the neckyoke straps may be connected or for the connection of a lead-horse. These parts are com mon and well known and have been shown in the drawings to more adequately illustrate the application of the present device.
In carrying out the present invention I provide a flat metal strap or bar 4, having the opposite terminal perforations 5 and an inter mediate lateral shoulder 6, which is formed by bending or kinking the plate or bar,- as plainly shown in Fig. 3 of the drawings. This plate is applied to the under side of the pole, so that the terminal perforations may receive the lower ends of the respective boltfastenings 7 and 8, whereby the bar is held longitudinally against the pole, and the stopshoulder is designed to engage the common neck-yoke ring that embraces the end of the pole.
As shown in Fig. 1, the device is at the outer limit of its adjustment, and should a smaller team he applied to the pole the outer fastening 8 is removed, so that the plate or bar may be swung laterally and rearwardly upon the rear fastening 7 as a pivot until it assumes the position shown in Fig. 2, when the fastening 8 is passed through the opening or perforation 9, formed through the tongue or pole and arranged to correspond with the adjacent terminal perforation of the plate or bar. Thus thedevice may be conveniently swung both forwardly and rearwardly to adjust the position of the stop-shoulder longitudinally of the pole.
It will of course be understood that either end of the bar may be in advance, and it is preferable to locate the shoulder nearer one end of the bar than the other. Also instead of swinging the bar it may he slid longitudinally from one pair of perforations to the other, thereby obtaining an intermediate adj ustment.
From the foregoing description it is apparent that the pole cap or iron 2 has nothing to do with the present invention, as the latter may be applied to a pole which is not provided with such a cap, the latter being shown to indicate that it does not interfere with the present device. However, the perforation for the pivotal fastening 7 should lie midway between the other two perforations, so that the latter may be alined with the perforation in the free end of the plate or bar when it is swung into either position.
What is claimed is l. The combination with a vehicle-pole, of a neck-yoke stop having a reversibly-adjustable pivotal or hinged connection with the pole.
2. The combination with a vehicle-pole, of a neck-yoke stop, having a lateral stop-shoulder, a pivotal or hinged connection with the pole, and a detachable connection between the free end of the device and the pole.
3. The combination with a vehicle-pole, having opposite perforations formed therethrough, of a neck-yoke stop, having one end provided with a pivotal connection with the pole and located between the perforations of the pole, and also provided with a perforation which corresponds with the respective perforations of the pole in the opposite positions of the neck-yoke stop, and a removable fastening for engagement with the corresponding perforations of the polev and the neck-yoke stop.
4. The combination with a vehicle-pole, having a pair of opposite perforations and an intermediate perforation located midway between said opposite perforations, of a bolt normally carried in the intermediate perforation and projecting at the lower side of the pole, another bolt for detachable engagement with the respective opposite perforations, and a plate or bar, having terminal perforations, and an intermediate lateral shoulder, one of the perforations pivotally receiving the projecting end of the bolt in the intermediate perforation of the pole, and the opposite perforation removably receiving the lower end of the other bolt.
5. A neck-yoke stop, comprisinga bar, having an intermediate stop-shoulder, a terminal pivotal pole connection, and a detachable pole connection for the opposite end of the bar.
' In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own I have hereto affixed my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
ANDREW F. KEETER.
