METHOD OF MAKING HORSE-COLLARS.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented June 16, 1908.
Application filed. February 28, 1907. Serial No. 359,830.
To all whom it may concern:
Beit known that I, LEONARD J. Pownns, a citizen of the United States of America, and a resident of WVaterloo, Blackhawk county, Iowa, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Methods of Making Horse-Collars, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvements in the method of making horse-collars, and the object of my improvement is to provide a water-proof top cover for a horse-collar, such cover being assembled and secured to the other parts of the collar in a convenient and inexpensive manner. This object I have accomplished by the means which are here inafter described and claimed, and which are illustrated in the drawings hereunto annexed, in which Figure 1 is a perspective of a horse-collar equipped with my improved water-proof top cover, Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the same, Fig. 3 is a plan view of the outer cover of the collar showing the method of attaching the lower end of the waterroof piece thereto, and Fig. 4 is another p an view of the outer cover, showing the method of securing the under cover thereto and to the water-proof piece.
Simi ar letters of reference refer to similar parts throughout the several views.
The pads of my improved horse-collar are formed by stufling them with some suitable elastic and light material such as curled cotton fibers. These pads are connected in the usual manner to a front roll pad cl also similarly stuffed. The large pads have an upper covering a and an under covering 0 of the same form and size, whose edges are secured together in a manner to be hereinafter described. In order to prevent rain or moisture from penetrating the upper part of the pads, I have provided a waterproof cover I) for them, the part 5 shown being but one half of such cover, suitable for covering the upper part only of one of the side pads. As shown in Fig. 3 the piece I) is first attached to the outer cover a, by placing the piece I) wrong side up on a and then sewing through both on the dotted line, so that when turned over, the free end of b will'have its edge coincide with the end edge of a nearest to it. When the piece I) has been reversed so as to be right side up, and its said seam thus contion.
cealed, the under cover 0 is placed over it so as to have all its edges register with the edges of the piece a, and then seams are run along both curved edges as indicated by the dotted lines. l/Vhen this has been done, the openended bag thus formed is turned inside out, and the lower end closed after it has been stuffed. Before stuffing, however, the upper open end of the bag is sewed to the open upper end of the other side pad, so as to permit said pads to communicate over the neck connec- The padding when introduced, then fills the upper connected part of the pads thus making the pad continuous about the neck of the horse, and providing a cushion for the upper part of the neck.
When the collar is completed, it appears as in Figs. 1 and 2, the water-proof'piece b on one side being overlapped upon the similar piece I) on the other side so as to form a continuous water-proof covering for the top part of the collar. This covering I) may be made of any suitable water-proof material, and will shed rain, the under part of the cushion being left absorbent and elastic.
Having described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States, is
The process of manufacturing a collarframe herein described which consists in uniting one edge of a piece of water-proof material to the upper portion of each of the outer side members of a pad-cover, then folding back such piece to register with the upper portion of such side-member lying thereunder, then placing an under-covering member upon each of the said outer sidemembers and over said water-proof piece, then uniting the longitudinal curved edges only of such pieces together, thereafter turning each of the tubular structures thus formed inside out to bring all of the edges of the material inside, then uniting the upper ends of the tubes to form a continuous hollowtube and securing the abutting ends of the water proof material together, thereafter stuffing said tubular structure with any suitable material.
Signed at Waterloo, Iowa, this 12th day of Feb., 1907.
