STIRRUP.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 627,328, dated June 20, 1899.
Application filed October 7, 1898. Serial No. 692,915. 6N0 model.)
To all whmn it may concern.-
Be it known that we, DANIEL FREDERICK DIOKERMAN and MIKE MOORE, citizens of the United States, residing at Nocona, in the county of Montague, State of Texas, have in vented certain new and useful Improvements in Stirrups, of which the following is a description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings and to the letters of reference marked thereon.
Our invention relates to improvements in stirrups, our object being primarily to produce a stirrup in which the strap bar or equivalent member is held away from the instep of the rider and prevented from jamming upon the same. sought to remedy this difficulty by constructing a stirrup having the tread-plate and the strap-bar offset with respect toeach other; but in practice this attempt has been unsuccessful.
To the end above indicated and also to improve generally upon devices of the nature mentioned our invention consists in the various matters hereinafter described and claimed.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of a stirrup constructed in accordance with the present invention, a portion of the stirrup-strap being attached. Fig. 2 is a central sectional elevation of the same; and Fig. 3 is a front elevation, the strap being removed.
Referring now more particularly to the drawings, ct represents the tread-plate of a stirrup, and b the stirrup sides, said sides each extending upwardly from the tread for a convenient distance in substantially the usual manner and then having forward and upward extensions 1), the tread and side pieces forming a substantially U-shaped article. tending between the same is the strap bar a, the construction of the sides previously indicated being such that the strap-bar and the tread-plate are offset with relation to each, the strap-bar being here about in line with the forward edge of the tread. It will now be apparent that the strap cbeing applied to the strap-bar in the usual manner and the riders foot inserted in the stirrup, with the heel in contact with the rear edge of the Heretofore it has been.
stirrup out of proper position. also forms an additional brace for the stirrup Secured to these extensions and extread, the instep is thrown in rear of the strap bar, and thus when the tread-surface is substantially at right angles to the strap the strap-bar is held away from the instep. As soon, however, as pressure is removed from the rear edge of the tread the stirrup, were it composed of only the parts heretofore enumerated,would swing about the strap-bar as an axis until the strap-bar is above the body portion of the tread, or, in other words, until the parts assume substantially the relation of such parts in the usual form of stirrup. To overcome this difficulty and to hold the stirrup in proper position at all times, we
provide means for preventing the downward and forward falling of the tread upon the strap-baras a pivot, and, as here shown, this comprises a stop-bar 01, secured to the sideextensions 1) and extending between the same, this stop lying slightly in advance of and above the strap-bar, whereby the strap has its forward member in rear of the stop and in front of the strap-bar, the strap being looped about the said strap-bar in the usual manner. It will now be seen that the tread cannot possibly fall, and the strap-bar is therefore at all times held away from the instep, while in addition to this the tread is at all times held in proper position, so that should the rider lose his stirrup the foot can be reinserted at once. Furthermore, the
parts being arranged, as indicated, with the stop in advance of the strap, it is impossible for the stirrup end above the strap-bar to work into the loop of the strap and throw the The stop-bar sides.
The present stirrup comprises but a minimum number of parts which are light and are cheaply made and assembled; but by reason of their arrangement they combine to effectually prevent the unpleasant jamming of the strapbar upon the instep, and the stirrup thus formed is strong and comfortable, with the parts always in proper position.
Having thus described our invention, what we claim as new, and desire to secure-by Letters Patent, is-
A stirrup comprising a tread, side pieces extending upwardly from said tread and having their upper portions extending forwardly as described, the tread and side pieces forinbar and thus prevents falling, of the tread;
ing a substantially U-shaped article, a 'strapsubstantially as described. bar extending between the forwardly-extend- In testimony whereof we affix our signaing upper portions of the side pieces whereby tures in presence of two witnesses.
5 said baris in advance of the rear of the tread, T 1 T and a stop-bar between the said forwardlyv RICK DIOKDRMM' extending portions of the side pieces and v above and slightly in advance of the strap- Witnesses: bar, whereby when a strap is applied to the JAMES WEISS,
