Letters Patent No. 104,429, dated June 21, 1870.
% IMPROVED seen-BRAK V m *I'he Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that 1, JOHN Gournnrnof Rondout, in the county of Ulster'and the State of New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Sled-Brake; and I dohereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable others skilledin the art to make andusethe same, reference being had to the accompanying drawing forming part of this specification.
a sled, to which my improvedbrake has been attached, parts of one of the raves being broken away to show the construc- Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding (parts. a 7 p My invention has for its object tofurnish an iniproved brakeforattachment to bob'and other sleds,
which shall be simple in construction, effective in operation, and conveniently operated, being-worked by the action of the horses in holding back the sled; and u a a It consists in the construction and combination of 'nected to the tongue G', by holts passing through a slot'in the said tongue G, said slot being soarrang'ed' t that when the draft is applied, the rear bolt may rest 2 against the rear end of the said slot.
Upon the rear end of the tongue Gris formed a long H tenon, g, which 'passes through a mortise in'the middle part of the roller E, said, mortise being made of such'a' size that the tcnon 9' may work freely in it.-
The mortise in the roller E is made enough longer a 1 than the breadth of the teuou g- ;to-receive the plates p I H,which are attached to the sides of'tlieton'gue G.
"The plates' H are securely bolted to the sides of the tongue, and their forward ends extend beyond the slot in the tenou .and 2.
and arcslotted to correspond with 1 respond with the edges of the tenon g, and project beyond the end of said tenon, to pass through the roller or cross-bar I, to which they are secured, holding the said crossbar close up against the end of the said tenon, by nuts screwed upon their projectingv ends, or by "beingriveted or headed down upon the rear side of the-said cross-bar.
To'there'ar side of the ends of the cross-bar I are jointed or pivoted the forward ends of the rods J which pass back-through guides, attached to the beams of the sled, and to the rear ends of which arepivoted the upper .ends of the levers K, the lower ends of which are pivoted to the rear ends of the runners A,
and to which, near their lower ends, are attached, or
upon them are formed the dogs L.
The dogs Lare curved, to enable .thern to pass down over the ends of the runners A, to come in contact'with the road-bed. v
The rods J pass through slots in the upper parts of the lever M, the movement of which uponthe said.
rods-is limited by pins or other stops,.'passed through or attached to the rods J, as shown 'infigs. 1 and 2. p
The lower ends of the levers M are pivoted tothe runners A, and to them, near their lower ends, are attached, or upon them are formed dogs N, which are curved, as shown in fig. 3. 7
By this construction, when draft is applied to the the sled, the dogs are raised and held away from the road-bed, but should the sled press forward upon the horses, or the horses press back upon the sled, the
eifect will be to force down the dogs into the roadbed, and thus retard or stop the sled.-
O is a bolt connected with the roller E, by a short chain, and which, when the tongue is drawn forward, maybe passed through a hole in the roller-Eaud g of the tongue G, as shown in figs. 1
ing the brakes.
Having thus described my invent-ion, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patnt-q a.
The slotted and tenoned tongue G 9?, plate H, and
This enables the sled to be backedwithoiit-l applycross-banl, combined {with rods J and brakes K L,...
all relatively constructed and arranged upon the sled, as shown and described, andfor the purposes specified.
