OF SAN ANDREAS, CALIFORNIA.
IMPROVEMENT IN CAR-SPRINGS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 159,802, dated February 16, 11575; application filed I November 7, 1874.
To all whom it may concern: I
Be it known that 1, ANDREW J. OULBERT- soN, of San Andreas, in the county of Galaveras and State of California, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Oar-Brakes, of which the following is a specification:
Figure 1 is a side view of a railroad-car to which my improvement has been applied, partly in section through the line w as, Fig. 2. Fig. 2 is a top View of the same, part of the body-frame being broken away. Fig. 3 is an end view of the same.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
The invention will first be fully described, and then pointed out in the claim.
A represents the body-frame oi a car. B are the truck-frames. G are the Wheels, and D are the axles. E are metallic bars, bent as shown in Fig. 1, and the centers of which are connected with the body-frame A by kingbolts F. The ends of the bars or plates E are attached to blocks G, which are placed in recesses in the front and rear middle parts of the truck-frames B. To the blocks G are attached the lower ends of the rods H, the upper ends of which are attached to the upper parts of the springs I. The lower parts of the springs I rest upon blocks or seats attached to or formed upon the truck-frames B. To the ends of the cross-springs l are attached the ends of the longitudinal springs J which are interposed between cross-bars of the frame A and the truck-frames B, and greatly diminish the rocking of the car-body.
Having thus described my invention, Iclaim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent The combination, with frame A, of the plates E, bolt F, blocks Gr, rods H, and springs I J, to support the load, all as set forth.
ANDREW JACKSON OULBERTSON.
