IMPROVEMENT IN THILL-COUPLINGS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 118,383, dated August 22,1871.
To all whom fit may concern:
Be it known that I, ALEXANDER O. NELSON, of Boston, in the county of Suffolk and State of Massachusetts, have invented anew and valuable Improvement in Thill-Couplings; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the construction and operation ofthe same, reference being had to the annexed drawing' making a p art of this specification, and to the letters and figures of reference marked thereon.
Figure l of the drawing is a representation of a vertical longitudinal section of my invention. Fig. 2 is a detached view. Fig. 3 is a top view.
This invention has relation to thill-couplings; and it consists in a combination of devices for that purpose; the object being to guard against rattling, by the peculiar use of a rubber block and au eccentric, and to protect the rubber.
The thill-iron A has iitted Within its eye au eccentric, a, having an opening, c', for the passage of the connecting-bolt b, both the opening and the bolt having one liat side, so that by turning the bolt the eccentric is turned with it. The rubber block d is iitted to the thill-iron, and for protection within the gua-rd d and the ears c and c. The bolt b has a square shoulder adapted to a square opening in the ear c', to prevent the turning of the bolt and the eccentric when both are in place; but by removing the nut e and driving the bolt back to J[he neck e on the bolt, the bolt and eccentric may be turned, and the bolt having its bearings in the ears c and c', the turning of the bolt and the eccentric presses the thill-irou back more or less against the rubber block, and thus rattling is prevented and the wear of the rubber block compensated VVituesses:
