Hub for Vehicle Wheels.
No. 159,262 Patented Feb. 2,1875.
Attesta} Inventar. 4 I
UNITED STATES PATENT QFFIGE.
OHAUNGEYII. GUARD, OF TIPPEGANOE, OHIO.
'IMPROVEMENT IN HUBS FOR VEHICLE-WHEELS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 159,262, dated February 2, 1875; application tiled January 7, 1875.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GHAUNCEY H. GUARD, of Tippecanoe, in the county of Miami and State of Ohio, have invented certain Improvements in WVheels, of which the following is a specification My invention relates to the hubs of carriage and other wheels; and consists in a band or shell, through which the spokes are tenoned into the hub, and which connects together the ordinary strengthening-bands on the hub on each side of the spokes, and keeps them in place, and also protects the surface of the hub, and at the same time allows an elastic bearing to the base of the spoke.
Figure 1 is an elevation, in perspective, of a hub containing my improvement. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section through the same.
In order that my invention may be better understood, I will now describe in detail one of the methods in which I have contemplated applying it.
In the drawings, D is the hub, and B B are the ordinary iron strengthening-bands, put on to keep the hub from splitting; Outside these iron bands are bands of tin, or other metal to which solder will stick, (shown at E E,) and over all is my band A, composed of solder or other soft metal, and soldered or otherwise fastened to the bands E E, thus keeping the iron bands B B in place. It also serves to protect the surface of the hub, and at the same time is an elastic bearing for the surface of the hub. As shown in Fig. 1, the mortises are cut right through this band A, and the spokes are tenoned through it into the hub, as shown in Fig. 2.
I, of course, do not limit myself to this exact device, as my invention may be applied in a variety of ways. 1 For example, the bands B may be made of wire, and soldered together, in which case the bands E E would not be needed; or the bands B B and connectingshell A may be made of one piece, or fastened together off the hub, and then put on, in which case the hub would have to be straight, instead of having the shoulders I) b, as shown; or the connecting-shell may be put on by putting the hub in an iron or other casing, and pouring molten metal around it, or in any other suitable manner, these difi'erent methods of applying it being mere matters of construction.
WVhat I claim is The combination of a wooden hub, made with projections Z) b on either side of the spoketenons, metallic rings B B, and shell A, formed,
with projections E E outside the bands, substantially as and for the purposes set forth.
CHAUNCEY H. GUARD.
