Letters Patent No. 98,247, dated December 28, 1869; a'ntedated December 18, 1869.
IMPROVED HITCHING-POST.
T he Schedule .referred to in these LetterePatent and making part of the same..
To all whom 'it may concern Be it known that I, JOHN GIBsON, Jr., of the city and county of Albany, State of New York, have invented a new and useful article of manufacture,
y panying drawings, forming a part of this specification,
in whichv Figure 1 represents a perspective view.
Figure 2 is a view of vertical section.
Figure 3 is a view of longitudinal' oross-section-of improvement.
The nature of my invention consists in furnishing a wooden postv with a metal cap in one or more pieces, to protect the post from injury by the weather or bit-ing of horses, or otherwise. cast or struck, and the top may be either iiator the shape of a cone or hall,I or any other form, and maybe either plain or ornamented.
To secure a horse to the post, and yet keep'him at a desired distance therefrom, I connect a rod, about two or three feet in length, to the post, by an eye-bolt or staple. The other end ot this rod is provided with Y a short chain, or equivalent, with a snap or hook attached. v
lls rod, with its chain or equivalent, should be iu total length shorter than the-height of the post fromthe ground tothe staple or eye-bolt, and pei'lnits a free movement of the horses head in any direction.
The post may also be protected from injury below the top, where the rod is fastened, by attaching one or more metal plates, or a shell of metal, made either plain or ornamental, or the 'said plates or shell may be cast with the cap all in one piece, and extend as far down on the post as protection is needed.
'lo enable others skilled in the art to make and use 'my invention, I will proceed to describe it in reference to the accompanying drawings, and the letters of reference marked thereon, the same letters indicating like parts.
A, figs. 1, 2, and 3, represent wooden posts. The said posts are provided with a metal cap, C,
The said cap may be made of cast or struck metal, securely fastened'to the post. These caps may be made in any style or form,
according to taste.
A little below the top of the post, secured by an eye-bolt or staple, S, is attached the bitching-rod H,` about two or three feet long.
To the other end of this rod is attached a short chain, h, provided with a snap lor hook. A short rod v may be substitutedfas equivalent for the said short chain h..
The object of this bitching-rod and chain is to prevent the horse from reachingthe post, and at the same time hold him secure.
rlhe end ofthe hitching-rod H, as shown by the dotted4 lines Hf, gs. 2 and 3, keeps the chain h, or its equivalent, at a distance fromv the post A, and while the Vchain h canonlyswing, as shown by dotted lines h', the horse is prevented from reaching the post to injure it or his harness.
To give further protection to the post, as well as ornament, metal pieces I, figs..1 and 2, are 4fastened round that part of the Vpost where the eye-bolt or staple S is secured. y
By thisv invention the styles of the caps, and their ornamentation, may be as variousas the tastes of individuals, the post is effectually protected from injury, and always provides a readyand safe. means of hitching, and the horse is prevented from injuring himself or harness.
Having described my invention, y
lVhat I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
As a new article of manufacture, a bitching-post, formed of wooden posts A, protected by the caps C and plates P, and furnished with the bitching-.rod H, with chain 71, attached, connected with the post by means of the eye-staple S, when constructed and arranged as shown and described.
