J. FENNBLL. HORSE BOOT. APPLIOTION FILED MAR; 1, 1907.
i lllnmlluum' JOSEPH FENNELL, OF CYNTHIANA, KENTUCKY.
HORSE-BOOT.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented June 25, 1907.
Application filed March 1, 1907. Serial No. 360,011-
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOSEPH FENNELL, a citizen of the United States,.residing at Cynthiana, in the county of Harrison and State of Kentucky, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Horse Boots, of which the following is a specification.
This invention has for its object an im' proved construction of horse boot, and the invention consists in certain constructions and arrangements of the parts as will be hereinafter described and claimed.
For a full understanding of the invention and the merits thereof and also to acquire a knowledge of the details of construction of the means for effecting the result, reference is to be had to the following description and accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure 1 1s a view of my improved boot in blank form; Fig. 2 is a perspective view illustrating the complete article; Fig. 3 is an inner face view of a portion of the boot; and, Figs. 4 and 5 are detail sections on the lines 4-4 and 5-5 of Fig. 2.
Corresponding and like parts are referred to in the following description and indicated in all the views ofthe drawings by the same reference characters.
In shaping a piece of leather so as to conform it to the sha e of a horses hoof or foot, it is necessary, w en using a solid piece of leather to out several gores in the edge of the leather and to draw the leather together at the gored portions, so as to give the boot the proper bu ged shape. Heretofore considerable difliculty has been experienced with these gores, in that the working of the two fastened together edges, one upon the other when the boot is being used, results in breaking out or cutting" the stitches, and the consequent rendering of the boot worthless, as the form which makes the boot useful is thus de-v stroyed.
My present invention has to do particularly with an improved construction of gored boot, in which the gores are made in a peculiar manner, with the result that the boot will not tear apart nor the stitching become out, thereby increasing the longevity of the boot and in resulting in the economic advanta es. I
eferring to the drawing, the numeral 1 designates a piece of leather forming the body of the boot, said iece or sheet 1 being cut so as to have a dou le reversely curved edge 2 which forms the upper and rear edges of the completed device. 5
Any number of gores may be used, according to the particular sha e of the boot, and in the present instance, i have shown four. Each gore is roduccd by laying out an isosceles triang e on the outer edge of the sheet 1 and cutting out the leather within the margin of this triangle with the exception of a portion 3 which may be substantially of trapezoidal form, its base 4 coinciding with the base of the triangle, its one side edge coinciding with a portion of one leg of the triangle and its op osi'te edge being slightly rounded,'if desire as illustrated at 6. This forms a tab 3 within each of the triangles,
and the leather is then drawn together so' that the tab 3 overlaps the adjacent portion of the leather, being secured thereto by a rivet or the like member with the two side edges or legs of the triangular abutting against each other. The dihedral angle may be of any desired degree. In com leting the device, the two drawn together e ges of the out are stitched as indicated at 8 from their apex down to the tab 3, the stitching drawing said edges together and extending through the leather from edge to edge, so as to form a cupid or curved surface which is reinforced and secured by the tab 3 being riveted as illustrated.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new is:
1. As an improved article of manufacture, a horse boot embodying a single sheet of leather provided with gores resulting from cutting the leather at its edge with recesses of the sha e of isosceles triangles, a portion of the leather within such triangle being riveted and constituting a tab riveted to the opposite portion of the cut.
2. As an im roved article of manufacture, a gored horse boot, the gores of which result from cuts, the side edges of which form dihedral angles, the said side edges being drawn together and stitched for a portion of their length, and a tab projecting from one side edge of the gore and overlapping the other edge and to which it is riveted. In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
