The invention consists in connecting the sections of the tubular truck-frame by tubular joints, thus forming a continuous passage therein, as and for the purpose hereinafter described.
In the accompanying drawing, Figure 1 represents a plan view of a truck-frame constructed-accordingtomy invention. Fig. 2 is an edge view, showing the'pedestal-blocks. Fig.
3 is an end elevation.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts; i 7 isthe truck-framep. B B, the axles; O
wheels. This frame A is made of tubing the parts being connected together by means of screws and corner-pieces D, in the usual manner, having one or more longitudinal tubes, E, connected to the ends of the frame by the pieces G represents the pedestal- Thus constructed, the entire frame is adapted for use as a water-tank for supplying the boiler, and may beof any size foundnecessary or practicable. ,The connections of feed and discharge pipes may be made in the usual or welhknown man- I do not claim a vehicle-frame made of tubes or tubular sections; but 7 7 Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Let ters Patent, is
