C. H. VlNCENT ENGINE ACCELERATOR Filed May 29. 1924 Patented Apr. 7, 1925.
CLYDE VINCENT, OF OILTON, 'OKLAI-IOMA.
NGINE ACCELERATOR.
Application filed May 29, 1824. Serial No. '716,705.
To aZZ whom it may cana-emt:
Be it known that I, CLYDE H. VINoEN-r, a citizen of the United States, residing at Oilton, in th County of Greek and State of Oklahoma, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Engine Accelerators; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description ot the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
The invention relates to means whereby a motor of the internal combustion type provided for driving a vehicle may be accelerated either by foot or by hand as found most advantageous, the mechanism being such as to admit of acceleration of the en-.
gine by either the hand or the foot without one interfering with the other.
Other objects and advantages will be apparent and suggest themselves as the nature of the invention is understood.
While the drawing illustrates an embodiment of the invention it is to be understood that in adapting the same to meet difierent conditions and requirements, various changes in the form, proportion and ninor details of construction may be resorted to without departing from the spirit of the invention.
Beferring to the accompanying drawing it'orming a part of the application:
Figure 1 is a diagrammatic View in elevation, showing the application of the invention;
Figure 2 is a similar view in plan; and
Figure 3 is a detail sectional view on the line 3-3 of Figure 1.
Corresponding and like parts are referred to in the following description and designated in the several views of the drawing by like reference characters.
The numeral 1 designates the foot board and 2 the dash of a motor vehicle and 3 designates the usual carburetor and i the throttle arin thereof. Associated with the carbureor is a shaft 5 from which arms 6 and 7 extend at an angle or" approximately 90 degrees. The arni 7 is connected to the arm 4: of the throttle and to the hand con trol not shown, and the arm (3 is connected with a pedal 8 mounted upon the foot board 1. y
pull upon the rod 11 efiects'a synchronous movement of the members 9 and 10 and the,
