L'UCIEN H. KELLOGG, OF MONROE, OHIO. Letm'ramt No. 84,360, dated November 24, 186s.
maovnnm'm' m Ronse-saone.
To all to whom it mq/y concern Be itknown that I, LUCIEN H. KELLOGG, of Monroe, in the eounty'of' Ashtabula, and State `of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Horse-Shoes and I do hereby declare that the following is a full and complete description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, making a part of this specication, in'whichl Figure l is a view of the outside of the shoe.
Figure 2 is a side view.
Figure 3, a detached section.
- Like letters of reference refer to like parts in the views.
A, fig. 1, is'the shoe, which is made of common cast or malleable iron, around the outer edge of which isP raised a deep flange, B, adding thereby largely to the strength of the shoe.
The toe-calk C, iig. 3, is made of stee1,and separate from the shoe, but is attached or xed to the same, by being dovetailed to it, or made to slide in between the checks D, which, it will be seen, are arranged tapering towards the front. Thus the calk is made to wedge 'in as it slides into place, and is prevented from falling out by the under bevel. of the sides of the calk., and the screw or nail B'. l e
The heel-calks E are also made of steel, and are xedpt'o the heel by dovetailing, as shown in g. 2.
The` flange B extends entirely around the shoe upon the under side, and forms a rest for the front end of the toe-calk C, so that 'the latter cannot beforced out of the dovetailed guides D.
It will be observed that the heel-calks do' not stand across the heel, as do the calks of an ordinary shoe,
but that they are lengthwise with the curve of the side. This position of the calk is much easier for the horse, vas it supports the heel further forward; it also allows of the shoe being made wider at the heel, and still retain-the same size calk, and thus willprevent an overreaching horse from interfering;
By thus dovetailing the calks to the shoe, they can be readilyreplaced, without the necessity of welding and refitting the shoe to the foot, as must be done with the ordinary wrought-iron ones.
. This shoe. is found to be durable, and not more liable .to break than wrought ones. The flange, as above said, gives to them the strength of the best forged.
They are very much cheaper and more convenient than the common shoe, as any person of ordinary skill 4can put them on the foot himself, as they are screwed on, instead;- of being nailed inthe ordinary way, which, however, may be nailed on if so desired.
I am aware that horse-shoes have been made, in which the calks are dovetailed, but as this does not constitute my invention, I do not therefore claim it but What I claim as my improvement, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
The described construction of the horse-shoe, having the flange B extending entirely around its under side, forming a rest for the front end of the toe-calk C, and adapted to receive the dovetailed heel-calks in such a manner that they 'shall rest upon the lange, longitudi nally of the same, as herein shown and described.
