IMPROVEMENT IN WAGON-BRAKES.
The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same,
To all whom it may concern -Be it known that I, J OHfi' J Rosa, of Elmwood, in the county of Peoria and in the State of Illinois, have invented a new and improved Brake for Hay- Wagons and do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference be likeparts.
This. improvement relates to the management of brakes in a loaded wagon, particularly hay-wagons, from the top of the upright lever, by a crank-pulley or roller and rope, the latter attached to the brakes.
A represents a horizontal brake-bar, suspended at a a to each of. the side' pieces of theframe G G in the front of the wheels K K, the outer ends being provided with the usual blocks'Z Z, fitting against'the wheels.
The clevis B, pivoted to the axle D, or to a bar adjacent to the latter, carries a pulley, a, at its forward end, over which the rope or chain d, fastened at one end to ,the. transverse brake-bar A, passes, thence running beneath the roller e and movable levers O at the lower end, and thence up to the winch It and rollers at the top of the levers. i
The trfipe' is prevented from recoil by means of ratchet'f and pawl g on the axle of winch h.
The levers O are of the ordinary construction, and elevated on the roller J, which is pivoted horizontally and transversely on the forward end of wagon-frame G- G in front of the load, The brakes A fall back from the wheels when the rope is relaxed, being pendent by staples or eyes, to bolts in' the side pieces of frame G G, one at either side, and in front of the brakes.
This brake can be also used on common wagons, by a slight modification, giving the same combination of powers, viz., lever and pulley-power.
The operation of this brake is as follows:
The winch h, being turned, (the'ratchet f and pawl g preventing any recoil of same,) tightens the rope d, which, passing beneath the pulley e at the bottom of the lever O, and around the pulleya in the clevis B, brings the brakes A forward, pressing the blocks at the-outer ends against the wheels K K, the ratchet and paw], as before said, preventing any recoil.
It will be seen that great additional power is obtained by the use of a crank, and in the case of the attachment of this principle to a common wagon the driver has the winch before him, and has not to reach behind him, as is the case where a lever is used,
Having thus fully described my invention,
What I claim therein as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
The arrangement'of the levers 0, provided with ratchet f, pawl g, and winch h, with its rope (I, arranged, with pulleys e and a of clevis B, to connect with brake A, in combination with the frame G of a hay or other wagon, substantially as shown and described.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing hay-wag0n brake, I havehereuntoiset my hand this day of JOHN J. ROSE. Witnesses:
E. THURLQW,
