The hoof bandage is designed to bandage a hoofed animal's hoof. The hoof bandage includes a base plate with a bottom and at least a front wall portion and a securing element to maintain the base plate on the hoof. The hoof bandage is preferably designed to fit a horse hoof or a cow hoof. The hoof bandage preferably easily slips onto the animal's hoof and is preferably secured by the use of a common household hair dryer to heat the shrink wrap surrounding the animal's hoof. No heating is required in the heel area, as this portion of the hoof is secured with an elastomeric band. Bandaging the hoof is accomplished easily and with less time and considerably fewer problems than with conventional hoof bandaging methods.

An adjustable stand includes a stable base, an upright portion upending from the base, and a platform adjustably locked in the base. The platform height preferably may be adjusted continuously rather than incrementally for precise and accurate positioning of a horse hoof or other animate or inanimate object. One platform includes a diverging U-shaped cradle, with a firm but cushioning/shock-absorbing material on its top side for elevating the supported object and absorbing the concussion of the work being performed on the object. Preferably, the firm but cushioning material is a flexible strap slung across the cradle and spaced above the surface of the cradle at its center region. The preferred plastic base and continuous adjustability of the platform provide a quiet, substantially non-metallic, and non-intimidating stand that tends not to frighten horses or other animals.

An all-in-one packing, pad and shoe substitute for barefoot horse hoof protection, comprising a plug of resin in fixed relation with the hoof bottom wall and a vertical extent of the interior hoof side wall dimensioned sufficient for ground contact adjacent the hoof wall face, the hoof side wall face being free of an added conventional external horseshoe.

Horse hoof protection against thrush conditions is obtained by depositing onto the horse hoof bottom wall a synthetic organic resin such as a urethane resin through which a medicament that does not block cure of the resin has been, distributed for continuing hoof wall contact. The resin is suitably free flowing into place, conforms to the contours of the hoof bottom wall, and adheres to the wall when cured. The protection by the resin is resilient and softer than the hoof wall and acts to cushion the hoof against shock.

A set of horseshoes for race horses made of Zytel®211 nylon with an embedded metal toe grab, and having front horseshoes with a relieved toe portion on the bottom side contacting the ground, and having rear horseshoes with a gradually thickening toe portion on the top side contacting the hoof.

A hoof pick for cleaning debris from a horses hoof formed of a solid piece of metal having a handle end and a pick element which forms an angle such that the tip extends further than the handle at a downward angle between 95 and 120 degrees. The handle end is then overmolded with a material that provides a slight contour to the base metal handle to improve grip and comfort on the hand during use. The overmolded handle end also contains a hole which can be threaded with a rope or cord or placed on a hook for securing the hoof pick.

A template and method for sizing horseshoes. The template includes a plate against which ground-contacting portion of a horse's hoof is placed. The plate has a plurality of adjustment members thereon. Each adjustment member is individually movable from a first position remote from a perimeter of said hoof, to a second position adjacent the perimeter. When the adjustment members are all in the second position, they are locked into position. The adjustment members define a region that is generally shaped to conform to the perimeter of the horse's hoof. The farrier works a horseshoe until the shoe is able to be received within the region defined by the adjustment members. The worked horseshoe may then be nailed to the horse's hoof.

A novel horse hoof boot is provided with a method of forming the same. The boot includes two separate elements, the first configured in part to support the horse's hoof inside the boundary of the hoof wall and the second wrapping around the outside of the hoof to provide stability. The method enables custom forming of a boot to a particular horse's hoof by forming a three-dimensional rigid hoof model which guides formation of the boot components.

The invention relates to a tank shape modified heat accumulation water chestnut flame glass tank furnace and uses thereof, wherein the furnace comprises a melting tank, a heat accumulating chamber, a charging opening and a throat, wherein the ratio of the longitudinal length and the traversing width of the melting tank is less than 1. Then invention realizes simple structure, easiness in use, and good glass melting quality, the melting area of the furnace is easy to expand.

A horse protector may be a horse hoof protector or a leg protector and includes a body formed of a plastic material by way of injection molding. A surface element, such as leather, is disposed at a predetermined position of injection. Thus, when the body is being formed by way of injection molding, the surface element is integrally adhered to the outer surface of the body. Thus, the protector has the simple structure and can be easily manufactured, and the surface element of the protector is firmly bonded and is free from detachment.

The invention discloses a high-frequency vibration type propeller. The fixed iron core is of a longitudinal cylinder structure, and an outer end ball head of the half shaft is connected into a center hole of the fixed iron core to form a universal rotating mechanism. The movable iron core is of a concave cylinder structure and is connected with the lower end of the fixed iron core through an inner hole, a coil is arranged between the fixed iron core and the movable iron core, and the fixed iron core, the movable iron core and the coil jointly form a reciprocating type electromagnetic vibration mechanism. And the fixed iron core, the movable iron core, the coil, the half shaft and the external sealing sleeve jointly form a propelling head. The propelling head is arranged at the position of a wheel of a traditional vehicle and connected with a vehicle body through an inner end shaft head of the half shaft. And the upper end head of the fixed iron core is connected with a turning device on the vehicle body through an operating shaft. The electric controller drives the movable iron core to vertically vibrate at high frequency along the axis of the fixed iron core through the coil, and when the direction changing device drives the upper end of the fixed iron core to move front and back and left and right through the control shaft, the propelling head can incline front and back and left and right around the ball head of the half shaft, so that the propelling head can drive the vehicle body to freely run front and back and left and right in a horse hoof running movement mode.
