iMPRovEMENT IN LANDAU CARRIAGES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 133,862, dated December 10, 1872. Y
part of this specification, and represents, in
Figure 1, a side view of the front portion of a landaulet; Fig. 2,- a transverse section on line x w; Fig. 3, a side view of the body, the landaulet top removed and the landau top attached; and in Fig. 4, a transverse sectionon line y y.
This invention relates to an improvement in that class of carriages commonly known as landaulets, a carriage in which the front part of the top is removable and the rear folding; the object of the invention being to make the carriage with interchangeable tops, so that, at pleasure, it may be either a landau top or landaulet.
A is a portion of the body of a landaulet carriage forward of the door-post B. C is the frame which forms the front of a landaulet, usuallyr filled with glass, and this is made removable from the body so as to leave the front of the carriage open, the rear part of the top folding in the manner of all folding-top carriages. In many cases itis desirable that a carriage of this character have a close top, and without which, at such times, the landaulet is useless. To make a landaulet convertible into a landau, I make a top, D, similar to a landau top, with a base, E, to fit the same position as the frame C, as seen in Fig. 3; this top provided with bows and braces in the usual manner. Thus constructed the` two fronts are interchangeable, so that the earriage is either a landaulet or a landau, and may be made a close carriage, as other landaus.
I claim as my invention-,-
The interchangeable tops C and D, substantially as described, for the purpose ofconveiting a landaulet to a landau, or vice versa.
