UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
ROBERT SPENCER, OF BROOKLYN, NEW YORK.
SADDLE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N 0. 270,142, dated January 2, 1883.
Application filed May 3,1882. (F'o model.)
shape from asheet of the felt, or each may be 50 To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ROBERT SPENCER, of the city of Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New York, have invented a new, and useful Improvement in Saddles, ofwhich the following is a specification.
My invention relates to the construction of pads or panels for military saddles,riding-saddles, and cart and harness saddles.
My invention consists in a saddle having two separate pads or panels separately detachable from the saddle, and each composed of felted material.
I n'the accompanyin gdrawin gs, Figure 1 represents a perspective view of a saddle tree. Fig. 2 represents a side view of my improved pad or panel anda tree to which it is attached. Fig. 3 represents a side view of one of the pads or panels detached. Fig. 4 represents a sectional view of the two pads or panels of a saddle provided with facings of leather, and Fig.
5 represents a similar view of a pad or' panel without a facing.
A A designate the two pads or panels of a saddle, which are constructed according to my invention. Instead of each-pad or panel A being made of two pieces of material sewed together to form a bag, and an interposed stuffing, I make the pad or panel solid of a single piece of felt or felted material. This pad or panel may be provided with a facing, a, of leather, applied to the outer side, as shown in Fig. 4, to protect it from friction, or may be unprovided with such facing, as shown in Fig. 5. The felt or felted fabric employed for the purpose is made of about equal proportions of jute, flax, cotton, or any other'vegotable fiber, and wool, cattle-hair, or analogous animal material; but the proportions of these materials may be varied. These materials may be incorporated together by felting or fnlling in any suitable manner; and to strengthen and reenforce the felt I employ a layer of very open or large meshed fabric applied between the sides of the felt designed to form the pad or panel. This re-enforce enables a lower grade 'of materials to be used for the making of the pads or panels. 7
The pads or panels may be cutout in proper separately made, and mayhavea varying thickness in difierent parts, so as to fit the horse at all points.
The fabric above described may be used for various other purposes than for saddles, and of itself forms no part of this invention, but may be made the subject of a future application for Letters Patent.
The pads or panels may be attached to the saddle-tree by nailin gor lacing; but I may provide the-tree with points and the pads'or panels with pockets to receive them. In the latter case I employ a tree of theform shown in Figs. 1 and .2, of which E designates the pommel, O the cantle,.and D the bars, which are prolonged in front of the pommel and behind the cantle to form points D D v The pads or panels A are entirely distinct from and independent of each other, and are separately connected with or attached to the saddle-tree. Each pad or panel A is provided on its outer side with two pockets, E E, the former of which is near the front or forward end of the pad or panel, and the latter of which is near the back'or rear end thereof;
The pockets are formed by sewing pieces of leather upon the exterior of the facinga of the pads or panels, and the points D l) are inserted into and retained in said pockets, as most clearly shown in Fig. '2. When the pads or panels are thus connected with the saddletree they afi'ord between them aspace which comes immediately over the spine of the horse, and greatlyreduces the liability to sweat, and, moreover, by afl'ording facility for separately disconnecting them, provision is niade for separately drying them after they have become damp in use. After the pads or panels are connected with the saddle-tree the saddle may be finished in any way with flaps of any form applied in the usual way; but as such parts form no feature of my invention they are not here shown.
In my Letters Patent No. 41,944, dated March 15, 1864, and reissued March 13, 1877,
Reissue No. 7,557, I have shown and described a graduated saddle cloth composed of a single piece, in which the varying thickness-of the different parts is produced in the process of each composed of felted materiahsubstantially manufacture either by felting 0r Weaving. I as herein described, and for the purpose set; 10
do not claim such a saddle-cloth as included forth. in my present invention; but
W hat I clai1n,and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-- \Vitnesses:
A saddle having two separate pads 0r pan- FREDK. HAYNES,
