warren STATES PATENT OFFICE.
HENRY MORAN AND PATRICK MORAN, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
lMPROVEMENT IN ADJUSTABLE HORSESHOES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 124,215, dated March 5, 1872.
Specification describing certain Improvements in Self-Adjustable Horseshoes, invented by HENRY and PATRICK MORAN, of the city of New York, State of New York.
The object of our invention is to provide horses with shoes which shall not injure the hoofs, but can be readily placed and replaced, according to circumstances, in a Very short space of time.
Figure I is a front view of a horse-foot, to which is adjusted our self-adjustable shoe. Fig. II is a cut section of the same through line as m, Fig. I.
The bottom part of our improved horseshoe A is formed accordin g to the shape of the hoof, and lis divided through the center into two parts, a and b. These parts, which are made by preference of vulcanized India rubber, are of 'such thickness that a certain elasticity or spring power is obtained, which not only is agreajt desid'eratum in point of increasing speed of race-horses, but will effectually serve to prevent certain diseases of the leg which horses are subjected to by the present mode of shoeing. If desired, a thin iron plate, of the same shape as the parts a and b, may be placed or fastened underneath, in order to preserve the material. The parts a and b are fastened to the upper part c of the shoe, which may be also made in one, and also of India rubber, serving to inclose the hoof. This part,
having a slot in front, is easily slipped over the hoof, and can just as easily be removed.
In the back of the part c are inserted two openings or round holes, 01 and e, for the purpose of giving a better fit to the shoe, and also to permit air to enter between the hoof and the shoe to prevent the heating of the hoof. In the front of part c is riveted on or other wise secured a fastening, consisting of the two parts f and g. Into the part f is cut a thread, into which is inserted the screw h, and into the part 9 a cut or slot, 70, by which means a secure and convenient fastening is obtained. In order to hold the parts a an db firmly together, a piece of metal, I, is placed as a connection over the slot separating these parts, and there held in their places by aid of the bolts m m, nuts 12 n, and washer 0.
Having thus described our invention, we desire to claim- A horseshoe, A, consisting of the parts 1,1), and 0, the holes d and e, fastenings f and g with screw h and slot k, connection piece Z with bolts m m, nuts n 'n, and washer o, substantially as and for the purpose hereinbefore set forth.
