Abstract
An animal restraining device comprised of a rigid frame pivotally supporting a pair of diverging horizontal outwardly extending support arms each of which carries a sliding block bearing a loop of flexible material which extends outwardly beyond the outer end of the arm and which is drawn inwardly by foot-actuated cable means into cooperative limb-engaging position with the end of its supporting arm. Adjustable spacing means extends between the two support arms and downwardly facing bracket means for readily mounting the frame upon a vertical panel is carried at the back side of the frame.
Claims18
An animal restraining device comprising:
- (a) a frame;
- (b) a pair of support arms pivotally mounted upon said frame for pivotal swinging movement about at least one vertical axis and each extending horizontally outwardly from said frame in spaced relation at approximately the same elevation;
- (c) a pair of size-adjustable closed loop members, one each of which is carried by the outer end portions of one of said arms and extends outwardly therefrom;
- (d) each of said loop members being shiftable relative to its said associated outer end portion between restraining and non-restraining sizes;
- and
- (e) control means carried by said frame and connected to said loop members in controlling relation to cause said loop members to move between non-restraining and restraining sizes as desired.
An animal restraining device comprising:
- (a) a frame;
- (b) a pair of support arms supported by said frame and extending generally horizontally outwardly relative thereto and having their outer end portions in laterally spaced relation and at approximately the same elevation;
- (c) a pair of size-adjustable closed loop members, one each of which is carried by the outer end portion of one of said arms and extends outwardly therefrom;
- (d) each of said loop members being shiftable relative to its said associated outer end portion between restraining and non-restraining sizes;
- and
- (e) control means carried by said frame and connected to said loop members in controlling relation to cause said loops to move between non-restraining and restraining sizes, as desired.
An animal restraining device comprising:
- (a) an open rectangular vertically extending rigid framework;
- (b) a pair of support arms each pivotally mounted upon opposite sides of said framework at approximately the same elevation for swinging movement about a separate vertical axis and extending outwardly from one side of said framework in spaced relation to each other;
- (c) a pair of sliding blocks, one each of which is slidably mounted upon the outer end portion of said support arms;
- (d) a pair of bands of flexible material each having both of its opposite ends secured to one of said blocks and each extending outwardly therefrom, thereby forming a closed loop extending outwardly beyond the outer end of its supporting arm;
- and
- (e) control means connected to each of said blocks for drawing the same and its associated loop toward said framework to bring said loop into cooperative restraining position relative to the outer end portion of its supporting arm.
