UNITED STATES PATENT FFICE.
JOHN M. GWINNELL, OF NEWARK, NEW JERSEY.
IM PROVM ENT IN HARNESS-SADDLES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 198,608, dated December 25, 1877; application filed November 12, 1877.
To all whom it may concern:
marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
My invention relates to certain improvements in saddle-trees and their attachments, the nature of which will be fully understood from the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure l is a rear view of my improved tree provided with a back-band at c, flap at b, and a sheet-iron stii'ener at c. Fig. 2 is a front view of my improved tree provided with leather` jockey at k, a section of which is shown in Fig. 4, and a plan of the tree alone in Fig. 3. Fig. 5 is a plan of my improved stiffener.
My improvement in saddle-trees consists in casting a raised seat or cantle upon a saddletree, with an-undercut edge to receive and retain the edge of the leather jockey.
It further consists in providing a leather jockey of special construction to lit against the raised seat, and also a metal stiffener adapted to reach from the terret to the back-band loop, and fastened by riveting or otherwise to the under side of iiap.
My improved tree is constructed, as shown in Figs. 1, 2, and 3, with raised seat e and crupper-loop f cast on the tree, and perforated at g for the terrets h, and at i for the rein-hook. The projection of the seat above the tree m is clearly shown in Figs. l and 2, va leather jockey, k, being fitted onto the tree in Fig. 2, and the seat being made of the right height by an undercut shoulder at e', to come flush with the surface of the leather jockey k. The leather edge, fitting beneath the shoulder c', is held in place and prevented from curling up.
The peculiar construction of this jockey is fully shown in the section at Fig. 4, where the tree is cut through at the center of the terrethole, and shaded with longitudinal lines, and
marked with the letter o. The jockey k is constructed with a strip of leather, n n, stitched or otherwise secured under each side, with a space wide enough and deep enough between them to admit the back-band p, the sides of the tree being inserted between the jockey and side strips n 1L. At the lower end of each strip n it is rounded off to match the corners of the jockey, and stitched to the same around the corner.
When designed to be used with the leather jockey, the sides of the seat should be raised to correspond with the thickness of the leather, and the latter be neatly fitted against the raised seat on each side, and secured with the ordinary tuft-nails or other appropriate fastening. The flanges r r on the outer edges of the tree, as shown in Figs. 1 and 3, should Valso be dispensed with in this case.
When my improved tree is meant to be used without a leather jockey, the seat should be but slightly raised above the sides, the shape, however, of the old detached seat being preserved by making the patterns for the castings in two parts, and producing the angular groove at e by molding the patterns in a threepart ilask, or laying a sand core or iron chill in the mold at each side of the seat, to produce the angular groove, as shown at c'.
My improved stiffener is shown in plan in Fig. 5, and in edge view in Fig..1. It consists of a strip of sheet metal or malleable iron, either of uniform width its entire length or wider at the top q, to it trees of various sizes, and is provided with a cavity or pocket for the nut s, formed by a cover, o, over a gradual depression in the upper end of the strip, the cover v being detached from the strip at the lower end to form an opening, by which the terret-nut s is introduced into the cavity. The stiffener being secured to the under side of the iiap, a slit or aperture is made in the flap to admit the nut .s to the pocket in the stiffener, and holes for the terretshank are made through the flap and both sides of the pocket t, as shown at u in Fig. 5. The terret also passes through the back-band a, which is laid on outside of the flap, Fig. l, and the stuffing of the saddle is applied directly inside or underneath the stiffener c at t.
band, and embracing the sides of the tree, in the manner set forth.
3. The combination of the stii'ener, constructed as described, with the saddle-tree, flap, back-band, and terret,a11 arranged in the manner set forth.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own I hereto aiiix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
JOHN M, GWINNELL.
