INlPROVEMENT IN REVERSIBLE AXLE-SKEINS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 125,762, dated April 16, 1872.
skei'ns fitted on the axles, whether of wood or iron, so that they can be turned from time to time, as they wear away, to remove the worn place from the wearing position and bring a part not worn thereto. The invention also consists in pinning the skein to the axle, to relieve the linch-pin or nut from the end thrusts of the skeins. v
Figure l'is partly a side elevation and partly a sectional elevation of an axle with skeins applied according to my improvement, and Fig. 2 is a transverse section on the line 00 w of Fig.1.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
A is the axle. B is the skein. O is the pin for securing the skein on the axle to prevent it from thrusting against the linch-pin or nut D too hard. The hole through the skein is made square or octagonal, and the axle is similarly formed, so that .neither can turn independently of the other, and the skein will remain on the axle as it is adjusted; the object being to shift the skein a quarter or half way round as it wears away, thus practically renewing the skein without cost, which can be done to advantage at least four times before the skein is wholly worn out, Whereas the skein is worthless after a certain amount of wear in one place when .arranged in the common way. The pin (3 will be fitted in so as to be readily removed for so shifting the skeins, and the skeins will have two or more holes through them to allow the pin to be used in all the positions of the skein.
.Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secureby Letters Patent As an article of manufacture, an axle-skein, B, polygonal in form and diagonally ap ertured, as described, so that the bearing-surface can be changed and the wear taken on different parts of its perimeter.
