tlhl-t TED STAT ES JAMESHUDSON, JR., OF CLEARFIELD, PENNSYLVANIA.
HORSESHOE.
Application filed February 24, 1921. Serial No. 447,481.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that T, JXMES HUnsoX, Jr., a citizen of the United States, residing at Clearfield, in the county of Clearfieldand State of Pennsylvania, have invented cer tain new and useful Improvements in'Horseshoes, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to improvements in horseshoes, more particularly to that type having detachable oalks, and the invention has for its object to provide, in a manner as hereinafter set forth, a horseshoe calk having means associated with the shoe body for attaching the calk in position whereby the calk will be firmly held in place against accidental detachment and cannot be turned or twisted out of position, and at the same time is so held that it may be quickly and easily detached for replacement or repair.
A further object of the invention is to provide, in a manner as hereinafter set forth, a horseshoe calk capable of being worn and obtaining etficient results, either in winter or summer, and further capable of being positioned in such a manner with respect to the shoe body as to prevent lateral or sidewise slipping of the horses hoof.
A further object of the invention is to provide, in a manner as hereinafter set forth, a horseshoe calk which is simple in its construction and arrangement, strong. durable, eiiicient in its use, readily attached to the shoe body, and comparatively inexpensive to manufacture and set up.
\V'ith the foregoing and other objects in view, the invention consists of the novel construction, combination, and arrange-- mentof parts, as hereinafter more spec-iii cally described and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein is shown an embodiment of the invention; but it is to be understood that changes, variations, and modifications can be resorted to which come within the scope of the claims hereunto appended.
In the drawings wherein like reference characters denote corresponding parts throughout the several views Figure 1 is a bottom view of a horseshoe embodying the invention with one of the calks removed therefrom, but showing the. position of the latter in dash lines;
Big. 2 lS a front edge view of a horseshoe provided with calks in accordance with this invention;
F 1g. 31s a fragnientaigy bottom view of a heel portion of the shoe illustrating the position of the heel calk socket relative thereto:
Fig. 4 is a sectional view on line IV-JY 3; and
Fig. 5 is a vertical side view of the calk.
Referring in detail to the drawing. 1 represents a horseshoe of any desired shape and construction-which. is provided on its lower face, at each heel thereof. with a circular boss 2.
An upwardly tapered socket 3, rectangular in cross-section, extends vertically through each of the bosses 9. and through the body of the horseshoe. The corners of the sockets 3 are rounded, as at 4:. for the purpose hereinafter explained. The sockets 3 are formed in the heel of the horseshoe. as is clearly shown in Fig. 3 of the drawing.
The toe of the shoe 1. on its lower face. is formed with a pair of circular bosses each provided with an upwardlytapered socket 6, rectangular in contour, extendina' vertically therethrough and through the toe portion of the shoe. The sockets 6 are in alinenient relative to each other and are formed with rounded corners '7.
The oblong calk 8, provided with an upwardly tapered shank 9 formed integrally therewith in close proximity to one end thereof, is adapted'for use in either the heel sockets 3 or the toe sockets 6. Theuppcr face of the calk S from its shank 9 is uninterrupted. The shank 9 is rectangular in cross-section and is formed with the rounded corners 10. The latter act in conjunction with the rounded corners of respective sockets and prevent liability of the shanks cutting and enlarging the sockets, thereby reducing accidental detachment of the calks from the shoe to a minimum.
Vhen the calks 8 are positioned in the toe sockets 6 they extend transversely with respect to and are spaced from the body of the shoe 1, with adjacent ends thereof almost abutting against each other, as shown at 11 in Fig. 1 of the drawing. When the calk 8 is positioned in one of the heel sockets 3 the former will extend longitudinally with respect to the shoe, in other words,
the calk 8 will extend approximately parallel with the heel portion of the shoe as shown in Fig. l of the drawing. Calks S and the arrangement thereof as above described are primarily intended for summer use.
iVhat I claim is:
1. A horseshoe comprising a body portion provided with a pair of sockets at the toe thereof, and a pair of calks having shanks extended into said sockets, each of the shanks being tapered with rounded corners and rectangular in cross-section, said sockets conforming in, contour to theshape of the shanks, each of said calks having the body thereof oblong throughout, said oalk bodies extending in close proximity to each other and transversely with respect to the shoe body, each of said shanks arranged,
at one end of and projecting from the upper face of a call; body, and the upper face of each oalk body from its respective shank uninterrupted and spaced from the body portion of the shoe.
2. In a horseshoe, the combination with the heel thereof provided with a boss, said heel having a tapering socket extended through said boss, said socket having rounded corners, of a calk comprising a body portion oblong throughout and having its upper face at one end provided with a tapering shank having rounded corners and rectangular in cross-section, said shank seated in said socket, said body portion abutting against said boss and having the portion. of its upper face extended from said shank uninterrupted throughout and spaced from said heel.
In testimony whereof I afiix my signature.
