ABSTRACT:
A bridle bit having an elongated mouthpiece pivotally attached at opposite ends to bridle rings permitting attachment of a bridle to the bit. The mouthpiece is constructed from a pair of longitudinally extending, substantially rigid arms, each connected to a respective one of the bridle rings, and connected to the arms by separate ball and socket joints permitting universal movement between the coupling member and the respective arms. Between the joints, the coupling member has a substantially cylindrical surface on which is rotatably and slidably arranged a roller which cooperates with the joints to provide a smooth action and freedom of movement of the bit that will permit the bit to function as a pacifier and eliminate such objectionable mannerisms by a horse as tongue protruding, teeth grinding, and lip smacking, frequently caused by extreme nervousness of a horse.
