Description

PATENTED MAY 29, 1906.
w M m QM N m A m @4 mwm mmm Q M J w E Nm T M/ IINITED STATES PATENT oFFIon) JAMES MODERMOTT AND JOHN C. MoBEAN, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS.
SOFT-TREAD HORSESHOE- Specification of Letters Patent.
, Patented May 29, 1906.
To aZZ whom/ it may concern:
Be it known that we, J AMES MCDERMOTT and JOHN C. MOBEAN, citizens of the United States, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented new and useful Improvements in Soft-Tread Horseshoes, of which the following is a specification.
This invention is a soft-tread horseshoe comprising a metal shoe provided with rubber calks at the heels thereof and with improved means for holding said calks in place and for quickly attaching the same.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of a horseshoe one heel of which has a rubber calk inserted and from the other heel of which the calk has been removed. Fig. 2 is a perspective view of one of the calks removed from the shoe.
Referring specifically to the drawings, the metal frame of the shoe has in its face a channel 6, formed by ribs 7 and 8. These ribs strengthen the shoe and make it rigid. The channel terminates at the heel in laterallyenlarged recesses which receive the calks 9, which consist of blocks of rubber suitably molded to fit therein. The side walls 10 and 11 of the recesses are provided with a number of serrations producing teeth 12, and the rear wall of each recess at the extreme heel of the shoe has therein, next the back or top plate of the shoe, a hole 13, which receives a lug 14, projecting rearwardly at the rear end and top of the block 9.
To insert the calk or rubber block, it is placed in the recess between the walls 10 and 11 with the lug 14 in the hole 13. The teeth 12 are then hammered into the block, which eflectually retains the rubber and prevents the same from slipping out. This result is assisted by the engagement of the lug 14 in the hole 13, which particularly tends to pre vent any lift or slip of the rear end of the calk, which has most tendency to slip out. New calks may be inserted by bending out the piece 12 and removing the old calks.
Whatwe claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
A horseshoe having a channeled face produced by ribs which are expanded at the heels to form recesses the walls of which have holes at the ends of the shoe and also have teeth on opposite sides, and rubber blocks fitting in said recesses and into which the teeth are hammered, and having lugs projecting into said holes.
In testimony whereof-we have signed our names to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
