REIN-SUPPORT.
sPEoIEIcATIoN ruiming part of Letters Patent No. 72o,438, dated February 1o, 190s.
Application filed July 10, 1902. Serial No. 115,077. (No model.)V
To @ZZ whom t may concern:
Be it known that I, J AMES SAMUEL JONES, a citizen of the United States, residing at N ewbern, in the county of Dyer and State of Tennessee, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Rein-Supports; and
I do declare the following to bea 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.
This invention relates to rein-supports for vehicles.
The object ot' the invention is to produce such a support by which the driving reins or lines may he held clear ofthe horses tail, so that it cannot be switched or caught over the reins.
The device is also intended to form an`ornamental attachment to a buggy that will at all times form a guide and holder for the reins.
With the above and other objects in view, which will readily appear as the nature ot' the invention is better understood, said invention consists in certain novel features of construction and combination and arrangement of parts, which will be hereinafter fully described and claimed, and illustrated inthe accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is a view of a portion of a vehicle and horse, showing the device applied thereto. Fig. 2 is a view of the device detached.
In the drawings, l denotes the upright or supporting standard of the device.
2 denotes a guide-lug formed on the upper rear side of the ordinary singletree-clip 3, and l denotes a similar guide-lug formed on the lower rear side of the clip 3. In these lugs are formed vertically-alined guide-openings, through which is adapted to pass the lower end of the standard l. (y
5 denotes a set screw which engages a threaded opening in the lug 4 and is adapted when screwed in to impinge against the lower` end of the standard 1 to hold the same in any adjusted position.
The upper portion of the standard l is curved forwardly, as shown at 6', and formed on its end with screw-threads which are adapted to engage a threaded aperture formed in the center of a line-rest 7, consisting of a horizontally-disposed bar 7', having formed on its ends guard lugs or eyes 8, which prevent accidental slipping od of the reins from the bar 7. v
The guard lugs or eyes 8 are preferably formed as shown in'Fig. 2 of the drawings, but may bekof any desired shape or contiguration that will prevent the catching of the horses tail thereon. Y
I have described the upper portion of the standard as extending forwardly in the direction of the horse; but it is obvious that the standard may be turned to throw the curve portion of the standard carrying the rein-rest and guards 8 to the rear to permit a horse to be hitched back closeltothe singletree.
While I have shown and described the device as being appliedto a singletree-clip, it is obvious that Lmay apply the same to any kind of a clip for attachment to other parts of the buggy than the singletree cross-bar. I `have shown the standard l as being straight at its lower end; but I may form the same with a curve, which would be ornamental and which would further remove the standard from proximity tothe horses tail.
. The advantages of the'device, as will be seen, consist in its simplicity, ready attachment and detachment to and from a vehicle, adj ustability, ornamental appearance, and the manner in which it is supported by the `Sngletree-clip. From the foregoing description, taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, -it is thought that the construction, operation, and `advantages of my improved rein-support will be readily apparent without requiring a more extended explanation.
Various changes in the form, proportion,
andthe minor details of construction maybe resorted towithout departing from the principle or sacriiicing any of the advantages of this invention.
Having thus described my invention, what VI claim as new, and desire to secureby Letters Patent, is- Y In a rein-support, the combination' with a singletree-clip, comprising a body portion, having forwardly-projecting perforated ears adapted to embrace the cross-bar and a singletree of a pair of thills, a bolt adapted to pass through said apertured ears, singletree, and cross-bar, and rearwardly-projecting verti- IOO I In testimony whereof I have hereunto set;
my hand in presence of two subscribing wit- Io DQSSGS.
cally-apertured lugs, of a supporting-standard passing through said verticaHy-apertured lugs, a set-screw carried by one of said lugs and adapted to engage the said supporting standard, a cross-bar or rein-rest carried by said standard and guard-lugs formed on said Witnesses:
rein-rest, substantially as shown and del W. E. JONES, scribed. J. H. JONES.
