SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Fatent No. 681,464, dated August 27, 1901.
Application filed January 2, 1901. Serial No. 41,815. (No model.)
T0 all whom, t may concern.-v
Be it known that I, GEORGE L. WARNER, a citizen of the United States, residing at New York, in the county of New York and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Horseshoes, of which the following is a full and complete specification, such as will enable those skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
This invention relates to horseshoes; and the object thereof is to provide a horseshoe of improved construction having a detachable pad for the protection of the foot, especially the frog of the foot, a further object being to provide a shoe of this class composed of separate parts and a pad which maybe connected therewith or detached therefrom whenever desired; and with these and other objects in view the invention consists in the construction, combination, and arrangement of lparts hereinafter described and claimed.
The invention is fully disclosed in the following specilication, of which the accompanying drawings form a part, in which the separate parts of my improvement are designated by the same reference characters in each of the views, and in Which- Figure l is a bottom plan View of a horseshoe constructed according to my invention; Fig. 2, a transverse section on the line 2 2 of Fig. 1, and Fig. 3 a side view of myimproved shoe.
In the practice of my invention as shown in the drawings I provide a shoe consisting of separate sides a and a toe portion a2, said parts being adapted to be welded together, as
vshown at a3, the welding of these parts being simply indicated by a diagonal line in Fig. 3. My improved shoe is also provided with a pad c, which consists of a top portion c2, of leather, and abottom portion c3, of rubber, rubber and canvas, or other suitable material, and the top portion c2 and bottom portion c3 are connected by stitching, as shown at c4, and the bottom portion c3 is also preferably provided with an annular space or rabbet-groove, as shown at c5, so as to form a projecting ledge or extension c6. The pad c is preferably of the general form shown in the drawings and is designed to support the back portion of the hoof and protect the frog of the foot, and at its front forward edgesand at the opposite sides are rectangular recesses c7, into which the ends of the opposite sides ct of the shoe iit. Passing transversely through the front of the pad is a space or chamber b, in the bottom of which is preferably placed a metal plate d, and mounted in this space or cham.- ber are two metal bars e and e2. The metal bar e is secured in place by bolts or similar devices g and normally projects beyond the side of the pad, as shown in Fig. 2, and is adapted to enter a corresponding recess h in one side a of the shoe, while the other bar e2 ,is provided with longitudinal slots Zz, through which are passed bolts or similar devices 7a2, and between the parts e and e2 is placed a spiral spring 1n. The bolts or other devices g and k2 pass through the leather portion of the pad and through the metal plate CZ and are held stationary, while the bar c2 may be moved transversely of the pad, as will be readily understood. The normal position of this bar e2 is that shown in Fig. 2, in which it is projected and fits in a corresponding recess n in one side a of the shoe; but said bar may be forced inwardly by a pin, plug, or other device inserted through a hole in said side of the shoe at 0. By means of this construction the pad may be connected with the shoe at any time and may also be removed therefrom, as will be readily understood, and a new pad may thus be substituted for the old one whenever necessary.
In practice the sides dare constructed with the recesses therein fitting the ends or projections of the transverse bars, and the blacksmith in shoeing a horse sha-pes the front or body portion d2 to the hoof and then welds the sides thereon, whereupon the pad will fit the shoe thus formed.
The welded portion of the shoe is provided with the usual toe-calk a4, and the side portions of the shoe are provided with the usual heel-calks a5, and it will be understood that the pad c may be made of any desired width and may be of any desired form and may be projected forwardly into the spacebetween the sides of the shoe, if desired.
My invention is not limited to the forming of the shoe from separate parts; but by means of this construction it will be apparent that a new toe portion of the shoe may be substituted for the old one Whenever desired, and the cost of the shoe may thus be largely reduced. It will also be seen that the pad is held in place by the bolts or bars e and e2, one of which is movable, and many changes in and modifications of the construction herein described may be made Without departing from the spirit of my invention or sacricing its advantages.
The rods or bars c and e2 are angular in form in cross-section, and the corresponding holes or recesses in the sides of the shoe,which receive the ends of said rods or bars, are also of similar form, and by means of this construction the pad is held in proper relative posi tion and prevented from turning between the sides of the shoe.
Having fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. A horseshoe provided with a detachable pad which is adapted to be secured thereto between the opposite sides thereof, said pad being provided at its forward side and at its forward edge and at the opposite sides With recesses adapted to receive the ends of the sides of the shoe and with transverse bars mounted therein, one of Which is movable and spring-operated, said bars being adapted to enter recesses in the sides of the shoe.
2. A horseshoe comprising a front or body portion, separate rear pieces Welded thereto and provided with recesses in the sides thereof, and a detachable pad provided with proj ections adapted to engage the recesses of the shoe, one of the said projections being springoperated.
3. A horseshoe provided with recesses in the sides thereof and a detachable pad provided With transverse bars mounted therein and adapted to enter the recesses in the sides of the shoe, one of the said bars being movable and spring-operated.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my invention I have signed my name, in presence of the subscribing Witnesses, this 29th day of December, 1900.
GEORGE L. WARNER.
