TIRE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Sept. 5, 1911.
Application filed March 4,1910. Serial No. 547,327.
Be it known that I, FARINGTON POWER, citizen of the United States, residing at Kansas City, inthe county of Jackson and State of-Missouri, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in. Tires, of
which the following is a specification.
This invention coinprehends certain new.
' and useful improvements in resilient wheels and tires, and the-invention hasfor its pri:
' mary object a simple, durable and efiicient take the place of the ordinary rubber inner tion that I shall hereinafter tube. The spring possesses all desired resiliency 'without being open to the objectionable features incidental to rubber inner, tubes as before mentioned. And the invention'consists" in certain details of construcfully describe and claim.
For a full-understanding of the invention, reference is to be had to the following description and acompanyingdrawings in which: Figure l is a side elevation of a wheel equipped with the resilient spiral band forming my invention, part of the outer casing or shoe being broken away. Fig. 2 is a transverse sectional view of the tire, the section being taken approximately on the line 22 of Fig. 1.. Fig. 3 is a perspective view-of a portion of the band.
Corresponding and like parts are referred to in the following description and indicated in all the views of the accompanying drawings by the same reference characters. My improved tire embodies a single strip of spirally wound flat metal, such as spring a steel, the ends of the strip being formed with beveled side edges, as indicated at 1,
and being riveted together, as indicated at fects. ing should become worn, torn or otherwise unfit for use, the wheel equipped with my what is claimed as new is 2, the convolutions of the strip being open or spaced from each other and one end overlying one convolution and the other end lying inside of the next convolution. By beveling the ends of the strip where they are riveted the resiliency of the strip is not detracted from, as would be if there were two full overlaps where the ends join.
It is to be understood that my improved spirally .wound metalfinn'er tube may be secured to the telly or rim of the wheel in any desired way. For instance, anchor bolts 3 may extend through the felly and-rim of the wheel between the'flanged edges ofthe outer shoe or casing and through the spiral tube, any number of these bolts being employed and arranged at any desired intervals.
From the foregoing description in Icon-- nection with the accompanylng drawlng, it
is evident that the spring metal spiral tube of my invention may be very easily constructed and that it will last a much lenger time than the ordinary rubber inner tubes,-
my device being practically indestructible and not subject at all to the blow out ef- Obviously if the outer shoe or casinvention would still be serviceable.
It is of course to be understood, that the invention is applicable for use with. wheels of all vehicles such as horse-drawn vehicles, automobiles, motor trucks orthe like.
Having thus described the invention,
The herein described tire embodying a spirally wound strip of flat metal, the convolutions of the strip being open or spaced from each other, the ends of. the strip being riveted together and the riveted ends being tapered toward their extremities with'beveled side edges, one end overlying one convolut-ion'and the other end lying inside'of
