APPLIOATION FILED MAB.12.1906.
GEORGE CRAWFORD, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
HORSESHOE- Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented July 3, 1906.
Application filed March 12,1906. Serial No. 305,641.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE CRAWFORD, a citizen of the United States, residing at No. 252 West Seventy-third street, in the city, county, and State of New York, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Horseshoes, of which the following is a speciication.
The object of my invention is to provide a horseshoe made of iron, or steel that will prevent horses from slippin on asphalt or other pavements. I do this y the combination in a horseshoe of an .upper portion with a lower sole or bottom consisting of a twistedchain formation with sharp arrises, rough points, and round parts forming a continuous twisted-chain shape all around the sole of the horseshoe.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 shows an inverted horseshoe with the bottom or twisted-chain sole shown by the letter a, the nail-holes shown by the letter b, and the margin outside of the nail-holes shown by the letter c. Fig. 2 shows a section of the shoe, the u per portion having a flat surface to be attac ed to the hoof, shown by the letter d, and the sharp arrises, rought points, and rounded links of the twisted-chain formation are shown by the letters e, f, and g.
The shoe is made by being either cast in one piece, or stamped out of one piece of iron or steel. It is composed of two parts-an upper portion (shown b the letter d in Fig. 2) to be attached to the iioof by horseshoe-nails in the same manner as an ordinary horseshoe is ut on and a lower portion or bottom or solle of the shoe. (Shown in Fi 1 by the letter a.) The upper portion of t e shoe has a smooth or flat surface at the top and is shaped the same as an ordinary horseshoe, with spaces for the nails, as shown by the letter t in Fig. 1. Attached to this upper portion of the shoe is the bottom or sole of the shoe, as shown in Fig. 1. This is the part of the shoe whichcomes in contact with the pavement. On this bottom or lower sole of the shoe are a number of sharp arrises, rough points, and rounded parts, twisted together similar to the links of a twisted chain, as shown by the letters e, f, and g on Fig. 2. This bottom sole of twisted-chain formation on which the horse stands extends around the entire shoe directly underneath the upper portion of the shoe, as shown on Fig. 1 and makes a roughness on the entire sole or bottom of the shoe, which gives the foot ofthe horse a hold on the pavement and prevents slipping.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim is- The combination in an iron or steel horseshoe of an upper portion made similar to an ordinary horseshoe, to be fastened to the hoof with nails, with a bottom portion or lower sole extendingall around and underneath this upper portion also made of iron or steel, and made in the shape of, and resembling the links of a twisted chain, with sharp arrises, and rough points, and rounded parts, the whole bottom or sole making a twistedchain formation all around the sole of the shoe, except where the links are cut through or separated to form the rough points, all substantially as set forth.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand and affixed my signature, in the presence of two witnesses, this 9th day of March, 1906.
GEORGE CRAWFORD. Witnesses:
WILLIAM CARL, M. A. HoLLIsTER.
