9-waicm PATENT OFFICE.
THEoDoEE R. TIMBY, 0E TAE'EYTOWN, NEW YORK.
IMPROVEMENT IN CAR-AXLE LUBRICATORS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 135,386, dated January 28, 1873.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, THEODORE R. TIMBY,
of Tarrytown, in the county of Westchester, New York, have invented a new and useful Improvementin Gar-Axle Boxes, of which the following is a specification:
Nature and Objects of the Invention.
My invention relates to a crib or trestle to be placed within the customary grease-box of a car-axle bearing, which crib, in combination with cushions ot' cotton-wick, or other suitable fabric or material, serves, while supporting the aXle-journah to maintain its surface in a constantly lubricated condition.
General Description.
spongy, and elastic material, D, capable of taking up a large amount of oil or other lubricant and yielding the same as needed to the axle-journal. The packing D should project above the edges b of the crib so as to constantly press against the under side of the axle-journal and thus keep the same well lubricated. The concave edges of the crib press upon and embrace the cushion below and prevent its displacement, while the flanges projecting horizontally from the ends of the crib serve to keep it in position within an axle-box of common form.
It will be seen that my crib is adapted to contain the packing without requiring any special or unusual form of axle-box, and that,
being complete in itself, it is capable of being furnished in any number and used in the boxes now employed without change of the latter.
' Claim. I claim- The bottomless crib, constructed as herein described, adapting it to be applied to an axle-box of common form and to hold a body of capillary material in contact with the journa], as explained.
THEODORE R. TIMBY. W'itnesses:
OOTAVIUS KNIGHT,
WALTER ALLEN.
