WILLIAML. TAYLOR, OF MEMPHIS, TEXAS.

HARNESS-HANGER.

Application filed January 16, 1909.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, WILLIAM L. TAYLOR, citizen of the United States, residing at Memphis, in the county of Hall and State of Texas, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Harness-Hangers, of which the following is a specification.

My invention resides in a new and useful invention in harness hangers, which will hold one or more sets of harness in a convenient manner, and is so arranged that the collar and pad may be kept separate from the harness, and so it will not get tangled, and is at all times in easy and convenient reach.

A further object of the invention is to provide straps swung in loops which are secured to a plate, which plate is adapted to be fastened to a wall; which plate is pro vided with holes for screws or nails, and also with a projecting hook at the top of said plate, for holding any article that may be hung thereon. The larger strap is sooured to the bottom of said plate, and is provided with a ring at the other end of same, which is adapted to be secured to a second hook, which is secured to the center of said plate. The second strap is riveted to the first or larger strap, and is also provided at the other end with a ring, which also is secured to the hook in the center of said plate.

Finally, the object of the invention is the provision of a triangular plate, provided with holes for the reception of screws or nails, by means of which it is secured to the wall. This plate is also provided with a projecting hook at its top or apeX, adapted to receive any article which may be hung thereon. The plate is further provided with a second book adapted to receive the rings secured in the ends of the straps, one of which straps is fastened to the bottom of said plate, and the other strap being riveted 1 to the first strap, by means of which harness and other articles may be conveniently suspended, and may be kept clean and free from dirt, and also will not get tangled, and will always be convenient to the reach of any one desiring to use same.

With the above and other objects in view, the invention has particular relation to certain novel features, an example of which is described in the following specification,

Specification of Letters Patent.

Serial No. 472,646.

and illustrated in the accompanying drawing, wherein:

Figure 1 is a front elevation, showing the harness rack in position for use, and Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the rack, showing the straps looped up in position to receive articles desired to be suspended thereon.

Referring now more particularly, 1 in Fig. 1 designates a triangular plate provided with apertures 2 to receive the holding screws or nails, by which the device may be at tached to the wall. The plate 1 is also pro vided with a projecting hook 3 adapted to receive any part of the harness that may be desired to be suspended thereon. The plate 3 is further provided with a projecting hook 4 adapted to receive the ring 5, which is secured to the end of strap 6, and the ring 7 secured to the end of strap 8, and the strap 8 fixed at one end to the strap 6 in such a way as to form a loop. The strap 6 is attached at one end to the base of plate 1, and provided with rings 5 at the other end of same, and is looped up and secured to hook 4. The

rings

5 and 7 are riveted to the ends of the straps 6 and 8. By this simple means the different parts of harness may be hung up on the respective hook and looped straps in a convenient manner, and maintained 1n such a position that it can be readily taken down and expeditiously handled when it is to be placed on the horse. Thus no confusion or entanglement of the different parts of the harness will occur. While the device, as before stated, is more particularly designed for supporting harness, it may be employed for other purposes, and I do not, therefore, wish to be limited in the use of the device for any specific purpose, but reserve the right to its use for any purpose for which it is adapted.

What I claim, is:

1. In a device of the character described, the combination with a plate, of means for securing the plate to a wall, a hook carried by the plate, a strap attached to the base of said plate, a second strap which is fastened to the first strap, both of said straps provided with rings at the ends thereof to engage with the hook situated on said plate.

2. In a device of the character described, the combination with a triangular plate, of a hook carried by the plate, a strap secured to the said plate, a second strap secured to the first strap, a hook carried by the said plate,

and rings secured to the end of said straps' adapted to engage with said hook carried by the plate.

3. In a device of the character descri-bed, the combination of a plate, of a, projectingfirst strap and swung in a loop, rings at- 1 tached to the ends of both of said straps, and

a second hook carried on said plate, adapted to receive the said rings.

In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.

' w I WILLIAM L. TAYLOR."
