PATRICK I. BRISLIN, OF UPPER LEHIGH, PENNSYLVANIA.
HORSESHOE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented March 2, 1909.
Applica-tion led May 7, 1908. Serial No. 431,347.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, PATRICK J. BmsLIN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Upper Lehigh, in the county of Luzerne and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Horseshoes, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvements in horseshoes, and has for its object the provision of a cushion shoe for draft animals of very simple and practical construction, which may be very readily and quickly applied, which will possess a great degree of resiliency, will be durable, and which will give the animal a surer footing and prevent it from slipping.
W ith the above and other objects in view, my invention comprises a shoe of resilient material and having means for preventing the nails or other fastenings from cutting or injuring the material of the shoe.
The invention also consists of a shoe for horses or other animals embodying certain other novel features of construction, combination and arrangement of parts, substantially as disclosed herein and as illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure 1, is a bottom plan view of the shoe. Fig. 2, is a sectional view of the shoe as applied to the hoof of an animal. Fig. 3, is a cross sectional view of a modified form of the shoe in which the body of the shoe is made in two layers which are afterward cemented or secured together in other manners.
In the drawings: The numeral 1, designates the body of the shoe which is made of some resilient material, preferably rubber, and has a band or strip 2, of canvas or other fabric embedded therein and extending nearly from end to end of the shoe as indicated in dotted lines in Fig. l. Instead of being made in a single piece, the shoe may be made in two layers 3, as illustrated in Fig. 3, there being a groove or channel 4, provided between the two layers to seat the strengthening fabric. Nail openings 5, extend inward from the outer surface of the shoe to the strip of strengthening material, and the nails are driven in through said openings with the heads of the nails, which are preferably flattened, bearing on the strengthening fabric which prevents the nails from cutting the material of the shoe.
After the nails have been driven to place, plugs 6, are inserted in the nail openings and cemented or otherwise secured therein. These plugs prevent any dirt from working in around the head of the nail and also serve as bearings to receive the downward thrust of the nail heads. The shoe is also preferably provided with a toe clip 7, and if desired the tread face of the shoe may be corrugated to afford a better gripping surface.
From the foregoing description taken in connection with the drawings, it will be apparent that- I have produced a cushion shoe which accomplishes the objects aimed at and which is practical and e'fl'icient for the purposes intended.
I claim:
The horseshoe herein shown and described, consisting of the upper and lower sections made of elastic material and of equal thickness, the upper section having a smooth surface for resting flat against the hoof and the lower section having a roughened or corrugated tread surface and having the inner faces fitting snugly together, a channel formed on the under face of the upper section, a filling material fitting snugly in said channel and resting smoothly against the upper face of the lower section, a series of openings in the lower section circular and wide, flat head nails fitting in said openings and passing through the filling and the upper section of the shoe for securing the shoe to the hoof, plugs for filling said openings, and a toe clip secured to the toe portion of the two sections and extending around the greater portion of said toe for protecting the shoe.
In testimony whereof I afhx my signature, in presence of two witnesses.
PATRICK J. BRISLIN.
