IMPROVEM ENT IN HORSE-POWERS.
The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part ,of the same.`
To all whom it may concern:
Beit known that I, HoMnR Grass, of Racine, in the county of Racine and State of Wisconsin, have invented a new and improvedHorse-Poweryand I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable others skilled in the art to make and use the saine, reference being had to the accompanying drawing forming part of' this specication, in which- Figure l represents ya plan or top view, partly in section, of my improved horse-power.
Figure 2 is a vertical section oi the same taken ou theplane ofthe line :i: x, iig. l.
Figure 3 is a detail vertical section taken on the plane of the liney y, lig. 1.
Figure 4 is a detail vertical section taken on the plane oi' the line z z, tig. 1.
Similar letters of reference indicate' corresponding parts.
This invention relates toa new arrangement of n1achiuery for utilizing animal power in the driving of stationary machinery; andV consists ina new conibiuation of parts for sustaining the rotary wheel andconiiecting the draft-levers Withthe saine, as hereinafter more fully described.
A in the drawing represents the supporting-frame of my improved horse-power.
It rests on Wheels a a, or is otherwise supported in suitable manner. I prefer to set it on wheels, and so shape it that it can conveniently be moved over the ground by a team attached to it at b.
On four (more or less) friction-rollers, c c, which are hung to the frame A, restsa horizontal ring or wheel,
B, which is continuously toothed. on its upper and.
lower sui'laces. Two ot' the rollers c are toothed to mesh into the lower teeth of B.
Above the wheel are hung to the frame A two toothed rollers, d d, which mesh into the upper teeth of B.
An inclined axle, C, which hangs in the frame A, connects one of the upper rollers d with the diametrically opposite toothed roller c, as shown in iig. 2.
'lliis axle also carries a toothed wheel, e, from which motion is conveyed to a lower axle, D, that is con-A nected in suitable manner with the machinery to be driven. Y
When power is by the animals applied to the wheel B, so as to rotate -the same, the toothed rollers c d 'will be revolved in a steady and reliable manner and with great velocity, and the axle U will .thereby also be revolved to impart motion to the machinery.
One end of the axle C is hung in a vertically-adjustable box, f, which permits the adjustment of the toothed roller to. greater or lesser friction.
The draft-levers E F are in pairs secured to the Wheel B. Y
' Each of these levers is, with its inner end, fitted into a socket, g, which is arranged on the wheel B, as in Iigs. l and 3. 1
To the side of each lever E F is furthermore secured a` metal claw, h, which ts over and locks upon a hook-shaped projection, i, of the wheel B, as is clearly indicated in tigs. l and 4.
A draft-bai', G, is secured to the lever E and fitted through an eye, j, at the end of lever F, so that it locks both levers to the draft, the direction of which is at right angles to the bar G, as indicated in iig. 1; thereby a very strong and reliable draft' attachment is provided.
l Z are small diction-rollers, the frame A to lit Wheel B.
H is a bent truss-rod, extending from side to side of trame A,'nnder the axle C. It serves to brace the sides ot the frame and also to strengthen the axle, be" sides furnishing a support for the pendant m, in'which one end oi the lows axle D has its bearings. By tightening or slackening this truss-rod the frame ofthe gearing can be raised or lowered.
Having thus described my invention,
l claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patentl. ln combination with a ring-wheel, B, and pinion D, the diagonal shaft C, having bevel-wheeler: d on its opposite ends, and the intermediate wheel e, to im part a steady motion anisin operated.
2. The truss-rod H and fol' the purpose specified.-
3- -The draft-levers E F,- combined with the sockets g, Claws li, and projections t', and with the draft-bar' G, substantially as herein shown and described.
4.- Ihe truss-rod H, arranged on the frame A to brace the same and adjust the gear-frames, substantially as herein shown and described.
