T 6 all 107mm it 'mayroncn'n:
Be it known that l, FRANK A. llAltDliX, a citizen of the United States, residing at Russell, in the county oiGreenup and State of Kentucky, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Horseshoes, of wh ch the following is a specification.
The object of my said invention is to provide a shoe for horses, mules and like animals, which will be still and durable, nonslipping, capable of freeing itself from all be is of snow, dirtor other naterial, and without calks, and it consists n certain imrovements, particularly in thedorm of the or from which the shoe is formed, by which these objects are accomplished, alias will be hereinafter more fully described aiidelaimed.
Referring to the aceompanyingh lrawings, which are made a arthcreof, andon which similar reference 0 iaracters indicatesimilar parts; Figure 1 is a plan view of the under side of a, shoe of my improved form "and shoe. The taper on the inside face of said flange makes it impossible for snow or mud to become packed therein to form "balls and interfere with the holding qualities of the shoe, for the taper attords a relief which serves to enable the shoe -to free itsel from all such substances under the action of the animals feet in his movements. From the base of said flange at 4 the under face of bar A is tapered upwardly to the point 5, fortniug a groove for the heads of the nails which project. through the holes a" formed at intervals in the bottom of said groove. From the point 5 to the inner edge 6 it is also tapered, forming a V-shapcd rib entirely around the bar A and about midway its width, which serves to still'en the shoe and, while not high enough to interfere in any way with the flange a in the performance of its functions, serves to co-nct with the tapered surface of the inside face of flange a to cnsoie the shoe to throw out any accumulation of matter.
construction, Fig. 2 a cross section on "theh By this form a shoe is provided which is du dotted line 2-2, and Fig. 3 a cross section on the dotted line 33.
, The shoe is of the usual form in outline, to lit the hoof of the animal for which it is designed. The main bar A is of substantially the usual width, its top face. being formed with a. flat portion from its outside edge 1 to the point '2 and from the point 2 to its inner edge 3 is slightly ta'iered or beveled away from the level, as shown, to secure a binding tit between the shoe and hoof. Around its outer edge it is formed with a. flange (1-, which flares outwardly somewhat and on its inner face is tapered from a comparatively thick base to a thin outer edge. Said flange extends cntirel' around the shoe and is turned in at the lice as shown in Fig. 1, to form a hook-shaped holding part 7 which will afl'ord a firm support at each side of the heel of the shoe. Said flange thus not only stifl'ens the shoe but gives to it its holding and anti-slipping qualities, bein used in lieu of the usual toe and heel caliks. For use on icy and slippery places its outer edge will be made as sharp or thin as may be necessary for the purpose, while {or use upon )avemeals a thicker edge may be used wit l the same ellicieney and with less wear upon the rable, while containing the least amount of ity, and one that will neither slip no: clog.
llaving'thns fully described mysaid invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is:
A horseshoe formed of a main bar having a continuous unbroken flange surrounding its outer edge and inturned at its heel on both sides and extending along its in er edge on an even level with the outer flange to form hook-she. cd holding port-ions hav ng elongated holding cdgespsaid flange st-antially unitorinly tapered on iti from its base to a thinner edge. and the under side of the main bar of the shoe tapered from its inner edge to a thicker portion toward said flange, nail-holes being formed in the depression between said illicl-I portion and said flange, substantially as a! forth.
in witness whereof, I. have hereunto set my hand and seal at Washington D. t. this 10th day of May, A. l). nineteen hundred and seven.
