WILLIAM J. CONWAY, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS.
SOFT-TREAD HORSESHOE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N o. 660,788, dated October 30, 1900.
Application flied October 2l, 1899. Serial No. 734,325. (No model.)
To all whom. it may concern:
Be it known that I, WILLIAM J. CONWAY, a citizen of the United States, residing at 227 East Washington street, Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Horseshoes, of which the following is aspecilic-ation.
My invention relates particularly to an improvement in horseshoes of the type employing an elastic tread; and my object is to provide a substantial shoe of this character the tread of which shall be readily detachable and replaceable.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure l represents a bottoni plan view of the shoe Without the tread; Fig. 2, a section at line 2 of Fig. l with the tread supplied, and Fig. 3 a similar section at line 3 of Fig. l.
rlhe shoe comprises, essentially, an upper curved plate a, constituting a hoof-plate, outer and inner peripheral flanges d a2 on the lower surface of said plate and forming a centraltread-section-receiving channel a3, treadsection-retaining lugs a4, provided with beveled surfaces a5 and retaining-shoulders a6 and projecting from the lower edges of the iianges a CL2, and a central tread-section a7 of elastic "material, which affords a projecting antislippage tread-surface.
The shoe is provided with nail-holes h, which in the form of shoe shown are inside the flange d. In this construction the shoe is nailed to the hoof before the tread-section is put in place. The flanges c a2 preferably converge slightly, each being at an angle to the plate c, except at the front of the shoe, Where the inner surface of the flange a' becomes substantially perpendicular to the plate, as shown in Fig. 2. At this point an upturned toe-lug o is shown, this being a common provision. The tread-section retainers a4 may be changed in form, as by increasing their length, the essential feature being that there be opposed retainers projecting from the anges a 0.2 of such shape as to permit the tread-section to be pressed between them in putting it in place, but to prevent it from being withdrawn after being pressed into place. After a tread-section has become so far worn 'as to render its replacement desirable it may be torn from its socket and a new section readily pressed into place without removal of the shoe from the horses foot.
The metallic portion of the shoe may be cast and malleableized or the shoe may be drop-forged, in which latter case the lugs a4 would be turned to their horizontal position after the forging operation. The tread-section may be of any suitable material which will yield at its lateral surfaces to pass the lugs a4 and then expand inside or above said lugs to prevent accidental detachment.
What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is- Y A horseshoe comprising a hoof-plate provided upon its under side along the inner and outer edges throughout with inwardly-inclined walls forming a recess, a yielding or elastic tread-section for the recess, the Walls of the recess having projecting from their inner surfaces toward thelower edges, integral in flexible lugs having inwardly-inclined surfaces and inner retaining-shoulders, the inclined surfaces of the lugs permitting ready insertion of the tread-section While the shoulders retain it in place.
WILLIAM J. CONWAY.
In presence of- D. W. LEE, M. S. MACKENZIE.
