To ALL WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
Be it known that I, WinLIAM LEONARD, of Boston, in the county ofSu'olk, and State of Massachusetts, have invented an Improvement in Harness-Saddles; and I do hereby declare that the following, ltaken in-connection with the drawings which accompany and form part of this specification, is al description'of my invention suicient to enable those skilled in the art to practise it. p
The invention relates to the construction of harness-saddles, with reference to protecting the stuing thereof from moist exudations from the back ofthe horse, while retaining on the side coming'in contact with the back' a soft-cloth bearing-surface.
The invention consists in placing between the hair-stuffing and the surface-cloth a thin sheet of rubber or rubber compound, cemented to the cloth, and acting to l ecp the moisture all upon the surface of the cloth.
. The drawings represent respectively, at and B, longitudinal and transversc'sections of a. saddle embodying my improvement. a denotes the back leather of the saddle, dal the rims,c the pad, said pad being principally made up of the hair-*stufhng 6, andthe face-piece e ma-de of kersey, or equivalent soft-woven or textile material, this cloth being quilted or Stitched to the hacha through` the stufiing d, in such manner as to give proper form to the saddle-cloth, and to secure the hair from displacement. Oemented over the whole inner surface of the cloth e is a sheet,j, made of rubber, or equivalent impervious substance, this rubber coming directly between the hairstufling and the cloth, and efiectually conning all moisture (coming from the back of the horse) to the cloth itself, thereby protecting the hair from contact with sweat, and keeping it dry, and preventing it from matting, which matting is an unavoidable consequence of the common construction, whereinthe hair is directly in contact with the cloth. v Y
By cementing the rubber lining to the cloth, relative slipping of the cloth and rubber, and the stretching of the rubber, (either of which would tend to wear both of these parts,) are prevented, as will be readily seen, while the softness at the coarse-kersey surface, which comes in contact with the back of the animal, is retained.
I claim a saddle, having its hair-stuilng UZ protected from contact with the cloth e by an impervious lining, f, which is cemented t the inner surface of the cloth, substantially as set forth.
