CANOPY.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 694,232, dated February 25, 1902. Application filed November 14, 1901. Serial No. 82,274. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE A BABBITT, a citizen of the United States, residing at Brownsboro, in the county of Oldham and State of Kentucky, have invented certain new and usefullmprovementsin Canopy Thill Attachments for Horses; and I do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference beinghad to the accompanying drawing, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
This invention relates to new and useful improvements in awnings or shields for the protection of horses or other animals attached to vehicles; and it consists in the provision of a skeleton frame which is adapted to be adjustably held either to the thills or pole of the vehicle, adapted to protect a horse or other animal, and consists in means adapted to be fastened to the thill or pole of the vehicle and having a skeleton framework which may be raised or lowered and held in adj usted positions and over which !frame a suitable canvas or other covering may be placed,
whereby the animal may be sheltered fromthe sun or rain.
The invention consists,further, in various details of construction which will be hereinafter more fully described and then specifically defined in the appended claims and is clearly'illustrated in the accompanying drawing, which, with the letters of reference marked thereon, forms a part of this application, and in which drawing similar letters of reference indicate like parts, in which I have shown a perspective view of the skeleton frame as attached to the thills of a vehicle adapted to shelter a single animal.
Reference now being had to the details of the drawing by letter, A designates the thills of the vehicle.
The skeleton frame comprising my invention consists of the hoop-bands B B, which have elongated slots B near their ends, through which the shank portions of the thumb-screw Gare passed, said thumb-screws being carried by the straps D. Said straps D may have one or more of these clampingscrews, and the lower end of said straps has a concaved portion D, forming a clamping-jaw which is adapted to cooperate with the second jaw D said jaws being held together by means of the screws d, which pass through registering apertures in the two clamping members. By means of these screws the straps may be held at right angles to the thills and in the position shown in the drawing. C-onnectingsaid hoop-bands B B are the longitudinal strips E, which are riveted or otherwise fastenedito said bands, and a strip F is fastened to the highest portions of said hoopbands, and its forward end is upwardly curved and projects beyond the forward band B and is connected at its forward end, at an eye F therein, with the wire H, said wire being passed through eyes K in the bands B and the rear ends of said wire being bent to form loops L, forming rein-supports. A segment strap or band M is fastened midway between the bands B B to the longitudinal strips E, and said wire H passes through apertures in said band M.
While I have illustrated merely the skeleton framework of my device for supporting awnings or other coverings, it will be understood that the same is to be covered in any suitable manner by means of netting, awning, or rubber cloth, as may be desired, the covering, however, being left off for the purpose of illustrating the details of construction of the device.
Having thus described my invention, what Iclaim to be new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
In combination with the thills of a vehicle, a skeleton frame having jaws clamped to said thills, and adjustable bands connecting oppositely-disposed jaws, a bar fastened to the highest portion of said bands, and upwardly inclined at one end, and bent to form an eye F, a wire H held at its middle portion in said eye, and passed through apertures in said bands, said wire passed about the edge of one of the bands, and turned into loops, their ends passed through apertures in the bands, and bent over the edges thereof, forming guides for the reins, as set forth.
In testimony whereof I hereunto affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
GEORGE A. BABBITT.
