FRANK P. BUSIEL, OF SOMERVILLE, MASSACHUSETTS.
LUBBIGATING DEVICE.
T0 a?? Qczom t may concern.'
Be it known that l, FRANK P. Bti-SIEL, citizen of the United States, and resident of Somerville, county of h/iliddlesex, lr'iassachusetts, have invented certain new and useful improvements in Lubricating Devices, of which the following is a specification.
rlhis invention relates to lubricating devices, and is particularly intended for the lubrication of guide rails for elevators, counterweights and other apparatus in which guide rails are employed.
lt is the object of the invention to provide a simple and convenient device of this class which shall maintain perfect lubrication of the rail at all times without wasting the lubricant and without scoring or unevenly wearing the rail or track against which it acts.
Generally speaking, the invention comprises a carrier in the form of a shoe, which is so attached to the traveling or moving member running on the guide rail, such as an elevator car, to accommodate itself perfectly to the swaying, tilting and lateral movement of the car, without disturbing the equal distribution of pressure and the proper application of the lubricant.
To this end the invention comprises a bracket adapted to be detachably secured to the car or other moving part, upon which is mounted a shoe having engagement with the guide rail to be lubricated, said shoe being normally pressed with a yielding pressure against the guide rail while remaining free to tip laterally or longitudinally as well as in a plane parallel to the guide rail.
ln the accompanying drawings I have illustrated two simple forms of embodying my aforesaid invention, in whichm Figure l is a side elevation of the device attached to the counterweight of an elevator; Fig. 2 is a front elevation looking toward the guide rail; Fig. 3 is a horizontal central section on the line 3 3 of Fig. l; and Figs. et. .3, and 6 are similar views showing a modified construct-ion and arrangement. embodying the same principle.
According to the form of my invention embodied in Fig. l, l provide an angle Specification of Letters Patent.

bracket a whose horizontal arm is slotted to receive the fastening bolt a, by which it is attached to the counterweight slide, so that it may be adjustable toward or away from the guide rail m. The vertical arm a2 of the bracket a is provided with horizontal slots as shown at a3, to receive clamping screws which detachably hold the spring arm L to the bracket while permitting the adjustment of the spring arm laterally thereon.
rlhe upper end of the spring arm b is bent to form a loop or elongated eye b2, through which is passed a pivot bolt c carried in lugs or ears c2 projecting from the guide shoe c. lt will be observed that the spring arm b is made substantially narrower than the supporting portion of the bolt c, said bolt. being as shown in dotted lines much smaller than the bore of the eye b2, so as to permit the shoe to have a considerable play in all directions. In this way the shoe can freely accommodate itself to the guide rail in spite of the lateral movement of the counterweights or car by which the guide is supported. At the same time the parts are so proportioned and adjusted that the arm Z1 normally exerts a substantial pressure, which is transmitted through the pivot bolt c to the shoe to keep the interior of the shoe in close contactI with the guide rail. The pivotal joint between the spring arm and the lubricating shoe c permits the shoe to always remain in parallelism with the rail, in spite of any tipping or tilting of the car away from the rail or toward it and thus prevents the scoring or roughening of the rail itself, which might result from such movements of the car, if the joint were a rigid one.
rEhe lubricant is preferably in the form of a solid candle cl of suitable lubricating material, which is placed in a tubular holder d which is inserted by a screw threaded connection into the end of the aperture formed at c3 in the lubricating shoe c. This aperture in the lubricating shoe at the entering end is slightly larger than the width of the rail, so that the lubricant may spread over the lateral faces of the guide rail.
