HORACE S. SQUI'ER, OF NEWVARK, NEXV JERSEY.
BRlDLE-BlT.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 312.397, dated February 1'7, 1885.
(No model To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, HORACE S. SQUIER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Newark, in the county of Essex and State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Bridle-Bits; and I do hereby declare the lollowing to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to letters of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
The object of this invention is to secure simplicity and strength of construction and to It consists in the improved bridle or check-rein bit, constructed and arranged as herein set forth, and embodied in the claim.
Referring to the accompanying drawings,
v in which similar letters of reference indicate like parts in each of the several figures, Figures 1 and 3 are front views ofmy improved device, and Fig. 2 an end view showing clearly my peculiar method of construction.
In carrying out my invention I form the mouth-piece A and cheek orrein pieces B of one integral piece of wire, so that the said parts are comparatively rigid in their relation to one another. a
I form the mouth-piece of a helix of any suitable metal, at the ends of which the wire is formed into rings, as shown in Fig. 2, of
sufficient size to receive the reins. The extremities a of the wires are then bent and entered or thrust into the helix an appropriate and convenient distance, by which they are secured. The plane of the rings being at right angles to the axial line of the mouthpiece, in which axial line the said extremities of the wire lie, the draft upon the wire rings will not withdraw the extremities from their sockets in the helix, as will be well understood.
I may cover the helix or mouth-piece with rubber, leather, or other flexible material, should I so desire, to protect the horses mouth.
The bit thus constructed is more especially mouth-piece, as shown, the ends of the wire being confined within the helix, as set forth. In testimony that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto set my hand this 7th day of July, 1882.
HORACE S. SQUIER.
