STEPHEN Pr MCTIGUE, OF NEMAHA, IOWA.
SAFETY-STIRRUP.
Application led September 19, 1907.
i To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, STEPHEN P. MOTIGUE, a citizen of the United States, residing at N emaha, in the county of Sac and State of Iowa, have invented new and useful Improveniente in Safety-Stirrups, of which the ollowing is a specification.
This invention relates to safety stirrups and one of the principal objects of the same is to provide a stirrup in which the side bars and foot piece are made in sections pivotally connected together so that a slight movement of the foot within the stirrup will move the sections so as to release the foot from the stirrup.
In stirrups as usually constructed, the foot of the rider is liable to become attached in falling from ahorse to drag the rider and cause serious injury.
It is the purpose of my invention to provide a stirrup in which the. slight lateral movement of the foot of the-rider will cause the sectional parts of the stirrup to move and ermit the foot to become detached thererom. I
The objects and advantages referred to may be attained by means of the construction illustrated in the accompanying drawing, in which the figure is a perspective view of a stirrup made in accordance with my nvention, and showing in dotted lines the various positions which the parts may assume in releasing the foot therefrom.
Referring to the drawing for a more specific description of my invention,'the numerals 1 designate the f oot piece section of the stirrup pivotally connected together in the center upon the pin or rivet 2. Integrally connected to the foot iece sections 1 are the lower side bar mem ers 3 and pivotally connected at 4 to the side bar members Spare the supporting bars 5, said supporting bars being ivotally connected at their inwardly eX- ten ing ends'by means of a stud 6 formed u on or connected to the supporting loop 7 t rough which the stirrup strap 8 passes. A
sliding loop 9 on the stirrup strap 8 serves to Specificationof Letters Patent.
'made in sections pivota ly connecte Patented April fr, 190s.
Serial No. 393,651.
hold the strap and metal loop 7 in proper relative positions.
The operation of my invention may be briefly described as follows :-The rider with his foot u on the foot ieces 1 will be firmly sup orte in the sadd e. 'Should the rider be t rown the foot in pushing forward upon tile foot pieces l will make the parts assume t e Sho d the foot of the rider be thrown outwardly, the parts of the stirrup would assume the positions shown in the dotted lines b.
From the foregoing it will be obvious that whatever position the foot of the rider may assume in being thrown from the horse said foot can not become entangled with the stirrup and owing to the pivoted sections the foot may be easily withdrawn from the stirrup in case the rider is thrown.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new, is
1. A safety stirrup comprising a sectional foot piece pivotally connected together and a sectional su port pivoted to the foot pieces and pivotalljy connected to the supporting stra 2.pA safety stirrup comprising a foot piece made in two sections connected together by a central pivot, side bars formed on said foot piece, sup orting bars pivotally connected to said side ars, and a supporting loop having a pivot connecting the upper ends of said supporting bars together.
3. A safety stirrup com rising afoot iece togather, side bars formed on said foot piece, supporting bars pivotally connected to said si e bars, a stirrup strapl sup orting loop, provided with a stud to w `ch s of said supporting bars are pivote stirrup strap passed through said loop.
In testimony whereof I aflx my signature in presence of two witnesses.
STEPHEN P. MoTIGUE.
