Description
ISRAEL C. HALL, OF SANBORNTON BRIDGE, NEW HAMPSHIRE.
IMPROVEMENT IN WHIFFLTREES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 92,963, dated July 27, 1869.
To all persoas to whom these presents may come:
Beit known that I, ISRAEL C. HALL, of Sanbornton Bridge7 of the county of Belknap and State of New Hampshire7 have made a new and useful invention, having reference to the VVhiletree of a Carriage, and I do hereby dcclare the same to be fully described in the followin g-s'pecication, and represented in the accompanying' drawings, of which- Figure l is a top view, Fig. 2 a side elevation, and Fig. 3 a longitudinal section, of it and Jthe end portion of a whiletree of a carriage.
The. invention may be termed a new and useful or improved whifletree-snap,77 its purpose being to hold a harness-trace securely on the head of the whiftletree.
In the drawings, A denotes part of a whiftietree as provided with a buttoning-hcad, B, of the common kind. To the whifdetree a sprin g, C, carrying a hooked projection, c, is aflxed by screws b b, arranged at or near the rear end of the spring. The projection c enters the eye c of the head B. A lever, D, is pivoted to the spring and passes through it, the shorter arm o'f such lever being made to rest against the 4whiftletree or a piece of metal, d, sunk therein and projected back from the-ferrule e, which encompasses the whifetree at its end. The
longer arm of the lever extends down along the hook, in manner as represented.
By takin g hold of the said arm the lever may be moved so as to cause the hook'hto be withdrawn from the eye of' thetrace-head.
While a trace may be hitched on the said head it `wil1 be held thereon by the snap; but by moving the hook of the snap out of the eye of the bitching-head, and sufficiently away therefrom, the trace can. be unhitched from the said head.
From the above it will be seen that my said Whiftletree-snap not only can be easily operated, but, in practice, will serve to excellent advantage in securing a trace to the Whittletree, orpreventing such trace from becoming disconnected therefrom while the carriage to which it may belong may be in` useA or movement.
I claim- The arrangement and combination of the spring C, the hook o, and the lever D with the whiftietree A and its hitching-head B, as set forth.
ISRAEL C. HALL. Witnesses:

ALFRED H. Loon.
