HARNESS-BUCKLE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented July 9', 1907.
Application iiled J'unepl, 1906. Serial No. 322,118.
To all whom it may concern: f
Beit known that I, GEORGE SWEETEN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Rebel Creek, Nevada, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Harness-Buckles; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and"use the same.
My invention relates to improvements i'n harness buckles for connecting checkreins with driving lines in double harness.' l
It has for its object to provide a simple and cheap buckle with side extensions 'which will prevent it from passing vthrough the rings on the hames or those on the harness-saddle.
The invention consists in the features of construction and combinations of parts hereinaiterdescribed and more particularly pointed out in the claims concluding this specification.
In the accompanying drawings, illustrating the preferred embodiment of my invention: Figure 1 is a plan view of a buckle constructed in accordance with my invention, the straps or lines being removed. Fig. 2 is a plan view of the buckle with the reins connected thereto, and Fig. 3 is a longitudinal central sectional 'view of Fig. 2.
Referring more particularly to the drawings, 1 is the buckle which comprises an integral circular piece 2 having parallel cross pieces 3, arranged equidistant on each side of the diameter thereof, and another crosspiece 4 connecting the cross-pieces 3 about midway thereof. The swinging tongue 5 is mounted on the cross-piece 4 and its end bears upon the outer ring or circular piece, as shown. Each of the parallel crosspieces'S has its lower edge arranged in the plane of the circular piece 2, but increases in thickness from the ends to the center as shown at 3a in Fig. 3, whereby the central portion projects above the plane of said circular piece. The cross-piece 4 is arranged near the 'highest points at the center of said parallel cross-pieces-so that it also extends above the plane oi thev circular piece 2.
The check rein 6 is secured to the cross piece 4 in the usual manner, a slot 7 being provided for the passage ofthe tongue through it. The driving line or rein 8 passes through the buckle, between the parallel pieces 3 in the ordinary way, under the circular piece at one end, over the cross-piece 4 yand under said circular piece atthe other end, said driving rein being secured by the tongue passing through one of the holes therein.
The semi-circular side extensions 9 of the piece 2 form obstructions which effectively prevent the buckle from being pulled through the rings on the hames and those on the harness saddle. When the ordinary buckle is used, it is sometimes pulled through one or both of the rings by the horses, especially when they are diiicult to manage. It will be noted that my buckle is extremely simple of construction, being made in a single piece in addition to the tongue.
I claim:
on the second mentioned cross-piece.
In testimony whereof, I ax my signature, in presence of two witnesses.
- GEORGE SWEETEN. Witnesses:
Gmo. T. CHILDS, FRED STRASSBURG.
