A friend of mine just got a few loads of wood for his Sap operation.
It is old lumber from a cow stable that burned many, many years ago.
Included are about 20 or so "contraptions" that were bolted to wood supports at about the distance you would normally find cow stanchions. I can only surmise they were some sort of cow tie used when milking.
The patent date looks to be 10.15.1816. There are a few part numbers but I can't find a manufacturer's name.

As near as I can determine, the barn was built in the very early forties but is a replacement for a prior barn which also burned so it is possible these were salvaged from the first one.
