.T all 'whom t may conce/Mt.'
' in six wheel truck Be it known that I,.CLAUDE L. ORR, a citi- Zen of the United States, Columbus, in the county olf Franklin and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Six-Wheel- Truck Construction-for Railways; fand I do hereby declare the following to he a full,
clear, and exactdescription of the invention,
Vsuch as will enahlevothers skilledin the artV to which it appertains to make and use theV 'f Y other betweenrear` and middleaxles,-';and
same.
lVIyy invention relates to an improvement construction for railway cars, and is designed particularlyas an improvement on U. S. Patent No. 1,253,842 granted to Larp sen &.Johnson January 15th,11918.
Vtruck side frames, holsters supported at In the patent above referred to two auxiliary holsters extend transverselyof the truck and are supported at their ends in the and two A'longitudinal transverse bolster ycarry and support V,the
main bolster extending transversely of the truck. l x
In this improvement I have provided each l of the longitudinal holsters with an integral right angle arm, the freel end of the arm of each longitudinal bolster resting within a recessedseat in the other longitudinal holf ster, the two arms forming a support JforV the main bolster. v
In the accompanying invention; Fig. 2 is a view partly in side elevation and partly in section on'the line The invention is applicable for use withv any six wheel truck, and while I have illustrated one form of side Jframe in connection with my improvement, I have done so for the purpose of illustration only, and not with the intention oflimiting my invention to such, or any particular construction of side frame.

The transverse i holsters 12 are located as shown, one between the front and middle axles,`A and-the holsters .being supported on the transverse `holsters 12 and providedwith depending v shoulders 15la to overhang the 4transx'ferse 'bolster and'v operate v*to hold the vparts y'in pfopel`-rosito1i-` Each transverse its centerlasshown in Fig. 6, vand as above v the upright 7' form side supports for' "the longitudinal' holsters 15 and together .with the depending shoulders 15aV y ter engaging the transverse holsters'12 opein explained is provided with onthelat- -ate to retain the parts in the proper'relw Bath iongitmimai'tisr' 15 isy provided at 'one side "of the centerof its'length-'jwith an integral -right angle arm"17,thepfr.eeendi Y 4 an opening formedl inthe other-longitudinal bolster 15.
