Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented. Aug. 14, 1917.
Application' led November 11, 1916. Serial No. 130,829.
7 1o (1U/whom t may concern:
Be it known that I, MARTiN B. MA'rTsom a Citizen of the United States, residing at Princeton, in the county of Millelacs and State of Minnesota, have invented new and useful Improvements which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to bog shoes for horses or similar draft animals and it consists in the novel features Vhereinafter described and claimed.
An object of the invention is to provide a bog shoe such as may be applied to the shoe of a horse when the animal is used upon soft or marshy ground and a further object of the invention is to provide such a shoe which may be easily and quickly adjusted to t the foot of the animal.
With this object in view the shoe comprises a board having means forI retaining the rear portion of the shoe which 1s .permanently iXed to the hoof of the animal and means adapted to be passed over the upper forward portion of the hoof whereby the board is held in position belowthe permanent shoe.
In the accompanying drawing Figure 1 is a side elevation of one form of the shoe showing the same applied.
Fig. 2 is a top plan View of the form of shoe shown in Fig. 1.
The shoe includes a board 1 which is preferably of wood or .other suitable light material. A lug 2 is mounted upon the upper surface of the board 1 in the vicinity of one side edge thereof and a similar lug 3 is mounted in the vicinity of the opposite side edge of the said board. YThe said lugs 2 and 3 are provided with a series of perforations 4 which are adjusted to receive bolts 5 whereby metallic strips 6 are adjustably connected with the said lugs. The bolt 7 passes transversely through the free end portions of the strips 6 and is adapted to secure the free end of the strips together over the upper forward portion of the animal. The board 1 is provided at that side portion upon which the lug 3 is mounted with a series of perforations 8 adapted to receive the bolt 9 which secures the lug 3 to the board. Thus it is possible to shift the lug 3 transversely of the board 1. The lug 2 is secured to the board 1 by means of a bolt similar to the bolt 9 hereinbefore described. These bolts pass transversely through the board 1 and t rough a metalli@- in Bog-Shoes, ofk
' provided at one end strip 10 which is positioned against 'the lower side of the board 1. The board 1 is provided at its upper` side and'in the vicinity of its rear edge with a transversely disposed channel v11 which receives the body portion'of a bar 12. The said bar 12 is with an upstanding lug 13 which is disposed at an acute angle with relation to the median longitudinal dimension of the bar 12 and which is adapted to bear against the outer side of one heel portion of the permanent shoe of the animal. The bar 12 is provided in the vicinity of that end opposite the end at which the lug is located with a series of perforations 14. The board 1 is provided at the forward edge of the channel 11 and near the perforations 14 with a recess 15 which enters the said channel 11. A bolt 16 passes through one of the perforations 14 and transversely through the board 1 and also passes through the base portion 17 of a lug 18 which is adjustably mounted upon the bar 12. The lug 18 is disposed at an acute angle with relation to the median longitudinal dimension of the bar 12 and is adapted to bear against the outer edge portion of oneheel of the permanent shoe of the animal.
The base portion 17 is provided with a downwardly disposed flange 19 which is received in the recess 15. Therefore it will` be seen thatmeans are provided for shift-V ing the base 17 with relation to the lug 13 and the flange 19 prevents the lug 18 from turning after it has been fixed at an adjusted position under the bar 12'. A bolt 20 passes transversely through the bar 12 and also the board 1 and the bolts 16 and pass transversely through a strip 21 which is positioned against the underside of the board 1. The strips'lO and 21 are disposed tranversely of the grain of the board and prevent the same from splitting when the device is in use.
The lugs 3 and 18 are adjusted transversely of the board 1 to fit the foot or hoof of the animal and when the heel portions of Copies of this' patent may" b e obtained for ve cents each, by addressing the atv one end an upstanding lug, said bar being provided in the vicinity of its other end With a series of perforations, a base member mounted upon the bar, a bolt passing through the base member and one of the perforations, said base member having an npstanding lug, the base member being' further provided vvith a flange Which bears against the edge of the bar and lies in the said recess.
