摘要

The arch comprises a curved panel (1) with a relatively deep recess (5) in its underside to fit over the animal's withers, and fixings for two horns (10,11) on its upper surface, with one of the horns (10) fixed and the other (11) adjustable. It also has a pivoted ring (16) for stirrup leathers. The fixings for the horns can be in the form of nuts welded to the panel, which is made from a metal plate, with the horns held in place by bolts. The plate can be covered with leather on the top and felt on its underside. USE/ADVANTAGE - Lower manufacturing cost.
