To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, HENRY E. Coon, a citizen of the United States, residing at Baltimore city, in the State of Maryland, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Harness Attachments, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to an improvement in harness attachments, the object being to provide a convenient means for catching the manure and preventing its spread upon the streets, public high-ways, and in the stable. It consists in a tube mainly closed, and having a gravity drop valve therein for automatically closing it and confining odors, and also means at the lower end for emptying the device.
In the accompanying drawings:
Figure 1 is a side elevation with parts broken away;
Fig. 2 is a plan view;
Fi 3 is a detail perspective of the di charge end; and
Fig. 4 is a detail.
A, is the attachment canvas or similar flexible material, it having snap-hooks or other means 1 for attachment to the rings 2 on the breeching 3 of the harness. Chains 4 and 4 at different points for attachment to different parts of the vehicle.
At or near the center is a valve 5, preferably of canvas or like material, which drops by gravity into the vertical position illustrated in Fig. 1, in order to automatically close the device, and prevent the escape of odor.
While this valve 5 may be variously constructed, as a simple means of construction it is pro osedi to form a circular support for the tubu ar portion of the attachment in the way of a wire a which is inserted through a pocket I) stitched to the exterior, and this wire terminates in two overlapping loops 0, to which the snap-hook on the end of the chain 4 may be hooked. The valve may be formed by r c by stitching preferably made of are provided stitching the edges of a piece of.
canvas around a circular wire loop d as shown in Fig. 4. This loop is pivotally suspended at its upper edge'to one of the loops through or in anyv other approved or convenient manner.
At the lower or discharge end, there is a door 6 hinged at 7 to the discharge end of the device. As a convenient detail construction, the discharge end of the-device (which is preferably made of canvas orother similar material) is fastened around a frame 8 of wire or similar material,and the door 6 is similarly fastened around a slightly smaller wire 9, as shown in detail in Fig. 3.
The door 6 has an eyelet 11 at the upper end, and a loop 12 on the tube has a" ring 13 which extends over the eyelet 11, and by: I
hooking the snap-hook at the lower end of the chain 4 into this eyelet 11, it holds the" door closed, while at the same time support 7 g the attachment at Fig. 1. r y 4 In the use of this device, the streets are kept clean, and much of thesweeping is rendered unnecessary, and atthe same time the manure does not from automobiles, which, it hasbeen proven, destroys its eliiciency as a fertilizer. v The device is easily attached or detached.
that. end,'as shown in becomemixed with-the oil More or less slight changes mi ht be made i in the form and arrangement 0 the device without departure from my invention.
I claim: 7
