NEV YORK, A CORPORATION.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented June 12, 1906.
Application ined December 6, 1904. serial No. za've.
l To /ZZ whom it may concern;
l form a part of this specification, Figure 1 shows in elevation a portion of a harness embodying my invention. Figs. 2 and 4 represent parts of a trace-carrier. Fig. 3 is a longitudinal section through the middle of the hame-tug and end of the trace.
In the drawings g represents the back-pad of a harness, M a trace, andA and B the tracecarrier, which form the subject of a divisional application, led October 23, 1905, Serial No. 284,127, While the hame-tug consists, essentially, of the metal links 1 and the clip E, by which it is attached to a hame.
The links of the hame-tug are in the main of the same structure as the links of an ordinary separable-link sprocket-chain. Each of the links has a hinge portion or knuckle h at one end and a bar i at the other, which serve as the hingeintle for the adjacent link. On the face o each link in iront of the bar f1', there is a groove y', and, preferably, on the back a corresponding groove which permits the hinge-knuckle h to be slipped along the bar i of the adjacent link to the middle thereof in the Well-known manner. Thus the length of the tug may be readily changed by the insertion or removal of links. To adapt these links to the present invention, a cross-bar c is added for the attachment of the trace to the hame-tug. In the end of the trace is secured a hook j', formed, as shown, so that it may be easily applied lto any of the cross-bars c of said links in taking up or letting out a trace. The links are also preferably provided with means for the attachment thereto of a wear-leather c. This may be perfected by forming perforated lugs d upon the cross-bars c, through which and the wear-leather may be passed rivets, as shown.
The last link of the hams-tug may be provided with an eye through which is assed one end of the double loop A, whic loop passes also through the loop B, and the trace passes easily through both ends of loop B; but "this structure is not claimed herein, since it forms the subject-matter of the divisional application referred to above.
The invention claimed is 1. A metallic hame-tug consisting of a series of links, each having a cross-bar provided with means for attachment to a strip of wearleather.
2. A metallic hams-tug consisting of a series of separable metal links each having a cross-bar provided with a perforated lug for the insertion of the rivet by which to attach the link to a strip of wear-leather.
3. The combination with a metallic hametug consisting of a series of links, each having a cross-bar provided with means for attachment to a strip of wear-leather, of a trace having a bifurcated hook at its ends for en- 1gagement with the under side of said crossar. l
4. In a iieXible metallic hame-tug a link forming a removable section of said tug and having at one end a knuckle and at the other a bar forming a hinge-pintle and intermediate of the ends a cross-bar provided with means for attaching the link to a strip of wearleather.
