UNITED STATES OHAUNGEY N. STEVENS, or
SOUTH GILBOA, NEW YORK.
HORSE SHOE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Batented Dec. 17, 1907.
Application filed September 26.1907. Serial No. 394,717.
T 0 all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, CrIAUNoEY N. STE- VENs, a citizen of the United States, residing at South Gilboa, in the county of Schoharie and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Horseshoes, of which the following is a speci fication.
This invention relates to horse shoes, and comprises particularly a removable tread plate, having calks, which plate may be readily attached to or detached from the part or section of the shoe which is nailed to the horses hoof, the intent being to provide a stock of several tread plates so that a new one may be substituted whenever the calks on the old one wear out, without the trouble and expense of setting a new shoe.
The invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which,
Figure 1 is a plan of the shoe with the two parts assembled. Fig. 2 is a plan view of the inner or upper section of the shoe. Fig. 3 is a plan of the removed tread plate. Fig. 4 is a section on the line 4t4= of Fig. 1.
As stated the shoe is made in two sections, the one being fixed to the hoof in the usual manner, and the other constituting the tread plate which is secured to the former, and which may be readily attached or detached.
The inner or permanent section of the shoe consists of a thin part6, with the heavier or thicker part 7 on the outer or lower face thereof, extending around the outer edge of the shoe from near the toe to near the heel, on each side. This heavy part is undercut as indicated at 8, and is provided with the usual crease 9 and nail holes 10, the latter of which receive the nails by which the shoe is attached to the hoof. At the heel or rear end of the heavier or thick part is a lug or projection 11, and said heavier part tapers to a point toward said lug, with an undercut portlon at both the outside and inside edge thereof.
The tread portion of theshoe is shown in Fig. 3, and comprises a plate 12 having a toe calk 13 at the front and heel calks 14 at the rear. This plate is reduced on the outer edge and beveled as indicated at 15, to fit under the undercut portion 8 of the other section of the shoe, and at the end of said beveled part it has a notch as indicated at 16, to fit the tapered end of the heavy part 7 of the other section, and said notch tere minates in a recess 17 in which the lug 1L fits. The tread plate is made somewhat longer than the base plate, so that it extends slightly beyond the heels thereof, and at the heels the tread plate is made thicker and provided with shoulders 18 which fit against the ends of the base plate at the heel thereof. The tread plate is furthermore fastened to the base plate by means of a screw 19 which extends through a hole in the tread plate and is screwed into a threaded hole in the base or upper plate.
When the parts are put together the beveled edges 15 fit under in the undercut 8, and when the screw is inserted the parts are there by held together. WVhen the calks on the tread plate wear out, the plate may be removed by taking out the screw 19 and knocking the tread plate back to disengage it from the baseplate. Another tread plate can then be inserted. This can be done by any unskilled person and will savethe delay and expense of setting an entirely new shoe. The old tread plate can then be taken to the shop at any time for a new set of calks. The dove-tailed attachment of the parts, in connection with the particular shape of the ends of the interlocking parts, give a very firm attachment.
I claim 1. A horse shoe comprising base and tread sections, the base section having a projecting part at the outer edge of each side, the projecting part being undercut at its inner edge, and the tread section being removably fitted between said projecting parts and being reduced at its outer side edges to fit said underout parts and form a dovetail joint therewith, and having outwardly and forwardly extending projections at its heels, which fit around the ends of said projecting parts.
2. A horse-shoe comprising base and tread sections, the base sections having projecting undercut parts at opposite side edges and spaced apart at the toe, and the tread section having calks at toe and heels, and fitting at its toe in the space between the front ends of said parts, and being beveled at its outer edge to engage said undercut parts, the tread section being slidable in and outbetween the said parts from the rear, and means to fasten the same in place.
3. A horse shoe comprising base and tread sections, the base section having an undercut In testimony whereof I affix my signature,
projecting lpart extending along the outer in presence of two Witnesses.
edge of eac arm thereof and terminating in I a tapered end at the rear, and the tread section having beveled edges fitting said underout parts and forming a dovetail joint there- 1 with, and having notches at the rear in which said tapered ends fit.
