MNE STATS MOSES K. JOHNSON, OF 'UNADILLA, GEORGIA.
REPAIR SPOKE SOCKET.
Application led August 1, 1922. Serial No. 579,010.
T0 all whom t may concern.'
Be it known that I, MOSES K. JOHNSON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Unadilla, in the county of Dooly and State of Georgia, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in a Repair Spoke Socket; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
This invention relates to an emergency or repair spoke socket.
In connection with vehicle wheels generally, it frequently happens that the spokes thereof break or sever from their tenon in the felly. My aim is to provide a novel, inexpensive, efficient, durable and improved socket for use in such an emergency and under such conditions, and one which does not require the services of a skilled mechanic for installation.
A particular object is to provide felly reinforcing plates and a means whereby a portion of the hinged spokes may be appropriately removed to provide clearance for removing any part of the severed tenon which may project from the felly to facilitate attachment of my improved socket.
Another object is to provide an attaching plate with a stud for disposition for eXtension of the spoke at the felly, and which has a shoulder to cooperate with the clamping means engageable with the stud and with the hinged spoke.
Additional objects and advantages will become apparent from the description following taken in connection with accompanying drawings illustrating one practical embodiment.
In Said drawings Figure 1 is a fragmentary elevation of a wheel showing a spoke thereof repaired by means of my improvement;
Figure 2 is a vertical sectional view taken through my improvement and the adjacent felly and spoke and substantially on line 2*-2 of Figure l, and
Figure 3 is a detail perspective view of the stud employed and Figure 4 is a detail perspective view of the clamping plate employed.
Like reference characters designate like or corresponding parts in the different views.
A vehicle wheel is fragmentarily shown at A of which the felly is designated B and the spoke C. These spokes as usual are secured in Suitable sockets in the felly as by means 'of the tenon D. In practice, spokes frequently break or sever from the tenon D at the fellyB, leaving said tenons in the felly and having no connection therewith. It is under Such conditions that my invention is used.
In reducing the invention to practice, an attaching clip or plate 5 is provided, of any Suitable length and material, so as to c'over the inner peripheral surface of the felly B opposite the Spoke repairedy and covering the tenon D. This plate 5 may be secured in place in any suitable manner as by means of bolts 6 passing through the felly B and attaching ears 7 of plate 5. In order that the portions of the tenon D which may project beyond the inner peripheral wall of the felly B may be removed, and my invention accommodated, clearance is provided by cutting off the outer end of the spoke B at a distance from. the felly B which provides a flat outer end on the spoke at 8.
Attention is called to the fact that the plate 5 of itself may be used to reinforce the felly B should it break or sever transversely.
In the case of repairing the spoke, a stud 9 is provided, being secured to the plate 5 in any suitable manner as by a fastening 10 and the inner end thereof directly abut and contact with the flat end 8 so that the stud will in effect serve as an extension of the Spoke. Said Stud is enlarged toward the felly in order to provide a shoulder as at 11. In order to fasten the stud and spoke in rigid relation, any suitable means is employed for instance clamp plates 12 semicylindrical in Shape, surrounding the stud and spoke and at their outer ends abutting said shoulder 11. A fastening bolt 13 may bc provided to plates 12 and stud 9 while another fastening bolt 14C may pass through the spoke C and plate 12.
In operation, when the spoke breaks, it is sawed off as explained at a distance from the fellyto provide the flat end 8, after which any projections'froin the tenon D may be removed. Plate 5 is then attached by the bolt 6. Stud 9 having been previously connected to the plate 5 alines with and abuts the spoke C. The clamp plates 12 are then applied around the spoke and stud, abutting shoulder 11, after which the fastening bolts 13 andl 14j 'ajrefapplied.v
As merely one practical embodiment has been illustrated and described, changes Within the spirit and SQQpQ'as--, definedby the appending claims may be resorted to.
What is claimed is 1. A fastening device to secure a spoke to a felly, consisting of a plate'attachable t0 the. telly, e stud. inv @Qntnuaton 0f. the SPQk, @Xfteridhg Y"from Sadlplate intermediat@ the, Spoke. rid' telly, and means@ Secure' said vstud and spkeinlrigid relation.y
2. A fastening device `to secure) a spoke to aifelly consisting of a stud in' continuation ofthe spoke ,intermediate the spoke and felly,`mea'ns'ytoI secure theystud to the felly, Sali slllilhevllg a Shoulder, and fastening f y l y 1,456,449
plate inl continuation. of the spoke intermediate the spoke and felly, said stud having a l shoul'dem',M clamping plates surrounding said spoke and stud with ends in abutment With said shoulder, 'and fastening means passing through said plates, studsy and Spoke In testimony whereof I afiix my signature in pres'ence'of two Witnesses.
