Letters Patent No. 104,718, dated 1m 28, 1870.
IMPRQVEMENT IN END-FASTENER FOR CAIFSPRING-S.
'i'he'sehedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same To all whom, it may concern.- Be it known that I, GEORGE ELLIOT, of St. Louis, in the county of St. Louis and State of Missouri, have made a certain new and useful Improved End-Fastener for Oar-Springs, 8tc. and I do hereby declare that the following is afull and true descriptionthereof,
reference beinghad to the accompanying drawing and to the letters ofreference marked thereon.
This invention relates to an improved cap for connecting the end flanges of railroad-car springs, specially, although, generally, the same is applicable to all kinds of carriage, wagon, buggy-springs, 850.; and
The nature of this invention consists in the manner of housing or retaining the ends and end flanges securely in the cap. a r v To enable those herein skilled to make and use my said invention, I will now more fully describe the same, referringherein to the accompanying drawings.
Figure 1 is a perspective view of my'improved endfastener connecting the ends of a ear-spring; and Figure 2 represents a section of the fastener. The springs A and A pass one above the other in the usual way,the ends a and a respectively lying in jnxtlagposition within one side compartment of the cap I .As before stated, the form of spring is immaterial, with special reference to the joint and cap here presented,it being necessary only to have the ends 11 and a in the position generally as indicated, and that one of the springs, usually the lower one, have upturned ends at a. I
. As two pairs of springs are usually employed, the cap B has two compartments corresponding hereto. Between these are the ribs 1-, leaving only a narrow slot, 1;, between them. y
The ribs 1) act as side. guides to the spring ends.
In order that the parts may not be disarranged,-I
use a astener -strip, 0, which will lie betweeneacb two springs, and pass from end to end of the cap 13.
- .In testimony of said invent-ion I have hereunto set niy hand, in presence of- GEORGE ELLIOT.
