NECK-YOKE.
974,115. Specication of Letters Patent. i
Application led September 9, 1909. Serial No. 516,876.
To all 'whom 'it ma/y concern.' f
Be it known that I, Docron C. BowERs, a citizen of the United States, residing at Chelsea, in the county of Ro ers and State of Oklahoma, have invente a new and useful Neck-Yoke, of which the following is a specification.
It 1s the object of this invention to provide a cap adapted to be mounted upon the end of a neckyoke to receive the supporting strap, the invention consisting, among other things, in providing a keeper of novel and improved form, and in providing novel means for mountin the keeper.
Another object o the invention is to provide a keeper comprising an annular member over which the body portion of the keeper may be bent, the construction being such that the annular member will space the component parts of the keeper from each other, so that the keeper may have a double hold upon the strap which is passed through it.
Another object of the invention is to provide a keeper having an annular reinforcin member which, although thoroughly e. fective to reinforce the keeper, will in no wise interfere with the pivotal movement of the keeper. Other and further objects will be made manifest hereinafter as the description of the invention progresses.
The invention consists in the novel construction and arrangement of parts hereinafter described, delineated in the accompanying drawings, and particularly pointed out in that ortion of this instrument wherein patentable novelty is claimed for certain distinctive features of the device, it being understood, that, within the scope of what hereinafter thus is claimed divers changes in the form, size, proportions, and minor details of the structure ma be made, without de artin from the spirit or sacrificing any ofp the a vantages of the invention.
Similar numerals of reference are employed to denote corresponding arts throughout the several figures of the. raw- Ill the accompanying drawings, Fi re 1 shows my invention in perspective; ig. 2 is a transverse section t ereof; and Fig. 3 is a front elevation.
It is to be understood, as hereinbefore pointed out, that the keeper which is denoted by the numeral 7, is adapted to be disposedV directly beneath the axis of the neckyoke 1. That portion, therefore, of the device from which the lu 5 projects, will be denoted as the bottom o? the structure, other terms being selected accordingly.
In the accompanying drawings, the numeral l denotes one extremity of a neckyoke, upon which is adapted to be mounted a tubular cap 2, having a tapering bore 3, the cap being retained upon the neckyoke 1, against rotation, by means of a transversely inserted retaining element 4, or the like.
Projecting downwardly from the lower face of the cap 2, and disposed longitudinally of the cap 2, is a lug 5, upon each side of which are disposed the arms 6 of the keeper 7, a pivot bolt 8 being passed transversely through the arms 6 and through the lug 5, so that the keeper 7 may tiltupon the lug 5. The keeper 7 is provided with an opening 9 adapted to receive the yoke-strap 10, the ends of which are connected by means of a buckle 11 of any desired or suitable construction, the extremity of. the yokestrap 10 being connected with the harness in the usual manner.
It is to be understood that the keeper 7 may be fashioned in any desired manner, however, in the present instance the keeper is fashioned from a single piece of metal, providedwith openings 12, which, when the piece of metal is bent sharply upon itself as denoted by the numeral 13, aline, to form.
the opening 9 in the keeper. Surrounding the opening 9 in the keeper, and disposed Within the body thereof, is an annular member 14, conforming in general shape to the opening 9 in the keeper. This annular member 14, serves to space apart the sides of the keeper, so that the portions 6 of the keeper may be adapted to receive between them, the lug 5 which extends downwardly from the cap 2.
As clearly seen in Fig. 2 of the drawings, the annular member 14 serves as a form over which the bend 13 in the keeper may vbe fashioned, the portion 14 of the annular member fitting closely in the bend 13, the annular member likewise serving to space the arms 6 of the keeper apart so that the lug 5 may be received fairly between the arms 6. The annular member 14 is, moreover, spaced from the eriphery of the opening 1n the keeper, to eline spaced edges 25, adapted to en age the strap 10 alon two parallel lines, t us securing a firm hol upon the stra the annular member 14 bei depressed low the edges so that the strap, when drawn upon, may sink between the rtions 25 after the device has been in use r a short time. It should be noted that the annular member 14 is spaced apart from the connecting element 8 and from the lug 5, so that as the keeper rocks upon the connecting element, the rocking movement of the keeper will not be interfered with by the en gement between the lug 5 and the annu ar member 14".
From the foregoing it will be seen, that, although the device 1s simple in construction, and of few parts, it is thoroughly efficient to form a pivotal connection between the oke-strap 10 and the neckyoke 1.
aving thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to protect by Letters Patent is In a device of the class described, a cap having a lug; a keeper fashioned from a single piece of material having openi s therethrou h, the keeper being bent sharp y upon itsel to aline the openings; an annular member fitting closely in the bend of the keeper and constituting a form to define the bend in the keeper and to dispose the ends of the keeper in parallel relation for the reception of the lug; and a pivot element vconnecting the ends of the keeper with the lug; the annular member being spaced from the lug and spaced from the periphery of the openlng.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own, I have hereto aixed my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
DOCTOR C. BOWERS.
