AUTOMOBILE-ENGINE ATTACHMENT.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Got. 15, 1918.
Application filed March 28, 1918. SerialNo. 225,300.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ADAM W. SCHENBER- GER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Osawatomie, in the county of Miami and State of Kansas, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Automobile-Engine Attachments, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvements in automobile attachments, being more parvide an attachment as described having an added-feature, in that the fan belt guide may be used as a handle to grasp the attachment to hold it in place when applying it or when taking it 011'.
Other objects and advantages will appear in the following specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawing, in which:.
Figure 1 is a side elevation illustrating the application of the attachment to an engine, and
it is intended.
Fig. 2 is an edge view of the attachment.
In carrying out my invention I provide an arm 1 which is madeof some suitable material having the required resiliency and necessary weight for the purpose for which The arm 1 comprises two principal portions which are disposed at an angle with respect to each other as shown in Fig. 1.
The upper portion 2 mutator casing spring, and includes a knob or protuberance 3 stamped out of the spring 2, and adapted to engage the commutator casing 4. The lower portion of the farm 1 constitutes a fan belt guide 5.
The guide 5 is disposed infront of the fan belt 6 and is adapted to keep the fan belt from slipping ofl of the drive pulley 7. As previously mentioned, the guide 5 is bent at an angle with respect to the commutator casing spring portion 2 of the attachment or arm 1. By this arrangement, the attachment is more easily adapted to the comdispose the guide 5 in its constitutes the commutator and fan belt of the particular engine wherein the device is intended to be used. I v
A bolt 8 passes through a hole 9 in the slightly enlarged end or the arm 1 at the extremity of the portion 2. In this connection it will be seen that the width of the arm 1 gradually increases toward the end having the hole 9.
Attention is directed to Fig. 2. Here it will be seen that the profile of the arm 1 has a peculiar shape. The portion 10 having the hole 9 is parallel to the guide 5. It is of course necessary that the guide 5 lies fiat against the edges of the belt 6. The arm 1 is bent into a plurality of stages between the parallel portions. 10 and 5, the knob 8 being formed in one of the stages, and the other being so formed as to properly true position against the edges of the belt. The bent portions of the arm 1 may appear to a greater or lesserdegree according to the particular relative locations of the commutator 4, the belt6 and the breather tube 11 upon which the arm 1 is secured.
The shape of the attachment permits the performance of really three functions. The up er portion 2 takes the place of the or inary spring arm that holds the commutator casing'd in place. The guide 5 which is an extensionofthe portion 2, lies against the belt and keeps it from slipping from the pulley 7. These are the two principal functions of the invention. The third function consists in using the guide 5 as a handle for grasping and holding the alt}:-
tachment when either applying it to engine or taking it off.
It is thought that the simple nature of the device makes the manner of employing it easily understood, especially in view of the foregoing description. The guide 5 is grapsed in the hand and held in position until the bolt 8 is tightened in place through the hole 9 on the breather pipe 11. The attachment is primarily intended to be used on a popular make of automobile. The knob 3 presses against the commutator casing A and holds it in place. For this purpose the arm 1 is made of resilient metal. The guide '5 is located in front of the fan belt 6 and keeps it from slipping from the pulley 7 While the construction and arrangement of the attachment is that of a generally prechanges maybe made Without departing from the spirit of the invention or the scope of the claims.
v said pulley.
I claim:
1. The combination With an engine having a commutator casing and a fan belt, of combined means arranged to be aflixed to the engine and adapted to hold said casing and fan belt in place. v
, 2. The combination with an'engine having a commutator casing and a fan beltrunning over a drive ulley, of a' resilient member arranged to e secured at one end to the engine and ada ted to engage said casing to hold it in p ace the free end being located in front of the fan belt a) hold it on 3. An article for the purpose described, comprising a resilient metallic arm bent to 4. An article of manufacture consisting of a resilient metallic arm comprising a portion' constituting a commutator casing spring including a hole for securing the arm in place and a pressed knob. for engaging the casing, and comprising a second portion disposed at an angle to the first constituting a guide for cooperating With the ,fan
belt, said arm being bent laterally into a plurality of stages; the portion having the hole", and the guide being parallel.
