PATENT @mssi-iorcsi-:sHos4 SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 740,281, dated September 29, 19,03.
Application tiled March 6, 1903.
To @ZZ whom, it may con/cern.-
Be itpkn'own that l, ABRAHAM GoULD J EN- 5 Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of NewYork, have invented anew and Improved Horseshoe, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
The purpose of my invention is to so construct a horseshoe that it will be particularly adapted for use when the surface over which the horse is to travel is slippery or Where heavy loads are to be drawn over undulating ground or surfaces which aord uncertain footing. The shoe to that end is provided with metallic points extending the desired'distance below the tread of the shoe as usage, circumstances, or conditions may require, which points may be round, square, or of other shape in cross-section and blunt or sharpened at their lower endsl Another purpose of the invention is to provide a shoe in which such points will be arrangedat predetermined intervals apart, following the contour of the shoe from one heel to the other, and to prvide means for attaching the points to the shoe by producing apertures in the body of the shoe into which the points may be driven and expanded or riveted orinserted and screwed to place, and the contemplated construction of the shoe is such that the points may be 'cast or otherwise formed integral with the shoe.
The invention consists in the novel construction and combination of the several parts, as will be hereinafter fullyset forth, and pointed out in the claims.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figures.
Figure 1 is a bottom plan view of the improved shoe. Fig. 2 is aside elevation of the same. -Fig. 3 is a transverse section taken practically on the line 3 3 of Fig. 1, and Figs. Il and 5 are similar views illustrative of ditferent means of placing the points in working engagement with the body of the shoe.
A represents a horseshoe, which may be made of Wrought or malleable iron or of caststeel and which is of the usual form, being provided with auxiliary side channels 11 in Serial No. 146,474. (No rnotielV its bottom face and openings 12 in said channels to receive the nails for attaching a shoe to the hoof, as the shoe is secured in position in the usual manner, and in the construction of the shoe the ordinary toe-clip 10 is employed, engaging with the hoof at the upper portion of the toe, and instead of the continuous fiat under face atthe heel-sections ot' the shoe shown in the drawings rsaid parts can be downwardly flanged to produce a heel-calk, if so desired.
A series ot' apertures 13 is produced in the shoe, preferably nearer its inner than its Youter edge, which apertures are at determined intervals apart and extend entirely around the shoe from heel to heel. These apertures may be plain, as shown in Fig. 3, or their walls may be threaded, as is illustrated in Fig. ai. Each aperture 13 is adapted to receive a point or body-calli 14, preferably made of a hard metal, and when the apertures 13 are pla-in or smooth the points may be tightly driven into the apertures and expanded therein, or, as shown iu Fig. 3, the points or bodycalks maybe riveted to place, in which event the points or callis 14 are provided with collars 15,'adapted to engage with the under face of the shoe, and heads 16 are formed at the upper ends of the points or calks, which heads are in direct engagement with the upper fac-eef the shoe and are made as dat as possible. In this manner the point-sor calks la are held firmly in place and yet may be readily removed and substituted by others by siinplycuttingot'f the heads 16 of saidcalks.
In Fig. 4C l have illustrated the points or calks 14 as threaded and screwed into the apertures 13, and in Fig. -5 the apertures 13 are omitted, and the points or calks are cast or otherwise `formed integral therewith.
I desire it to be understood that while the points or calls are shown' with tapering and pointed lower terminals l? such portions may be bifurcated or of the same diameter throughout or may be otherwise formed to provide for a slight penetrating action upon the surface traveled over without departing from the spirit of the invention.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- 1. Ahorseshoe provided with side channels and openings therein for the nails, and with a row of apertures at the inner side of the channels, said row of apertures extending from one heel to the other, and calks fitting in the said apertures and provided with shoulv ders engaging the lower face of the shoe and provided with apertures into which the body 15 portions of the calks are introduced, and means for securing the said calks detachably to the said shoe, the lower portions of the calks being tapering, and the said body-calks being located nearer the inner than the outer 2o edge of the shoe, as described.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
