SWEAT-PAD FOR-HORSE-COLLARS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 691,729, dated January 21', 1902.
Application led May 15, 190.1. Serial No. 60,395. (No model.)
To 1f/ZZ whom t moby concern,.-
Be it known that I, WILLIAM H. OSMER, a citizen of the United States of America, and a resident of St. Louis, in the State of Missouri, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Sweat-Pads for Horse-Collars, of which the following is a specication.
My invention relates to improvements in sweat-pads for horse-collars, and especially that class known as sectional pads; and the objects of my improvements are, first, to provide a pad from which the filling may be read. ily removed from any spot wherein it is desired to relieve the pressure or bearing from the animals shoulder, and, second, to construct a pad of this character by so quilting it that the filling will not settle and forniy ridges or rows, but retain an even uniform bearingsurface over its entire body portion. I attain these objects by the method set forth in the following specification.
To enable othersl skilled in the art to which my invention appertains to make and use the same, I will now proceed to describe its construction and operation, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification, and in which- Figure 1 is a side elevation of my improved horse-collar pad; Fig. 2, a horizontal section on line 2 3 of Fig. 1, showing the pad-covering before the body portion has been quilted or filled. Fig. 3 is a horizontal section on line 2 3 of Fig. 1, showing the pad in a finished condition. Fig. 4 is a detail view showing the plan of closing the longitudinal opening by fastening the overlapping fold to the contiguous fabric. Fig. 5 is a detail View of one style of the quilting loop or knot, showing the slack which affords space between the covers of the pad.` Fig. 6 is a detail crosssection of a modification of my improved pad on line 2 3 of Fig. 1, showing the body portion extending from the front roll to the back edge of the pad, doing away with the separate back roll.
Similar figures of reference indicate similar parts throughout the several views.
1 represents the front roll, separated from the body of the pad by the seam 8.
2 is the back roll, separated from thebody of the pad by the seam 7.
3 is the main or body portion of the pad.
5 represents the longitudinal rows of slack stitching or quilting, knotted or tied,.as at 6, Figs. 1 and, to form lines across the body lofv the pad, creating the transverse spaces 4,
in which the filling may be inserted or removed at will.
4 is the overlapping free edge of the body portion, (shown open at 9 in Fig. 2 and closed by folding under, as in Figs. 3 and 6,) being held in place by the cord 10, fastened to the contiguous fabric, as shown in Fig. 4.
11 is a metallic hook of the ordinary kind secured near each end of the pad for the purpose of fastening it to the front roll of a horse- 'collar by hooking it over the same, although any other suitable fastening device may be used for this purpose, if desired. l
In constructing my improved pad the seams 7 and 8 are stitched, as shown in Fig. 2. The longitudinal rows of slack stitching or quilting 5 are then made, being loosely knotted or fastened, as at 6, (or by a slack lock-stitch,
if desired,) to form transverse lines across the/ body of the pad, creating the spaces 4, into which the filling, which may be of hair, moss, or other suitable material, is stuffed. The quilting-thread 5 being drawn taut across the covering of the pad, the filling is held uni formly in place.
When the pad is made without the sepa rate back roll 2, as in Fig. 6, the seam 7 is abandoned and the quilting-thread 5 substituted, which would also be the usage as to seam 8 in doing away with the front roll 1, yet the overlapping edge 4 would perform its required function by being folded under and secured to the contiguous fabric by the cord 10 closing the opening 9. Where thefront and back rolls are abandoned, the opening 9 may be arranged along or near the center of the body of the pad without departing from the spirit of my invention.
An element of cheapness is attained in the manufacture of my improved sweat-pad by reason of the fact that the covering of `the pad is complete before the filling is inserted, which saves a second handling and the tedious work of quilting or tufting a filled pad, which is heavy and cumbersome to manipulate. The rows of slack stitching or quilting 5 draw the covering down at right angles upon the spaces when filled and tend to hold the iilling in place, thus preventing it from settling in ridges, as is often the result When placed loose in pockets formed in the pad.
It Will be observed that by my present invention I construct a horse-collar pad embodying the merit of a quilted cushion of uniform bearing and thickness, which embraces the practicability of retaining the filling thereof in a certain fixed and proper position and possessing the advantage of the arrangement to readily remove or replace the iilling when desired.
The essence of this invention then is the slack tufting or quilting of the body of the pad before it is stu'ed in a manner to maintain a uniform bearing surface and form transverse lilies across it, creating spaces in Which the filling is placed or removed and across which the quilting or stitching thread is drawn taut enough to hold the iilling in place.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is- A A sweat-pad casing having a continuons opening at or near its edge through which to insert or remove a suitable filling, said openm ing being adapted to be closed by an overlap- J ping fold secured by a fasteningtl1read, and a plurality of longitudinal rows of slack stitching or quilting connecting the sides of the casing and loosely fastened to provide a uniform bearing and form transverse lines across the body of the pad lo position and hold in place the filling material, substantially as described.
