LUBRICLTING PADDLE FOR JOURNAL BOXES.
Application le'd .Inly 17, 1924, Serial No. 726,633. and in France July 20, 1323.
- iournal box.
The purpose of the present invention is to render more perfect the lubrication o journals or axles of railroad. cars by providing an oil elevating paddle which will not beat the oil as it passes through the oil well of the journal box, but will merely cut through the oil and elevate the same to the bearing of the journal box whereby a constantsupply of oil will be fed thereto and permitted to be evenly distributed thereover.
It is likewise an equally important object .of the present invention -to provide in con.- nection with. journal boxes of railroad cars a novel, simple and ethcient oil elevating paddle having opposed oil' collecting pockets therein whereby the oil may be collected by the paddle and distributed over the bearing. Other objects of the invention willfbe in part obvious and in part pointed outyhereinafter.
ln order that the invention and its mode of operation may be readily understood by those skilled in the art, l have in the acronn panying illustrative drawings and in the de tailed following description based thereupon, set out one possible embodiment of the inv ention.V
In these drawings: f 'Figure 1 is a vertical longitudinal section through an ordinary journal box having the invention as applied thereto,
Figure 2 is an enlarged tion through the elevation paddle, and
Figure 3 is an enlarge detail in perspective of the improved oil elevating paddle.
Referring now more particularly to the accompanyn drawings 'wherein like and corresponding parts are designated by sinular reference characters throughout the several views, the numeral 1 indicates a journal box adapted to receive the axle 2 of the railroad car and this journal box having the usual oil well 3 formed therein. Arranged between the journal box and the axle is the usual brass 4 having a projecting end 4 which latter projects over the outer end of Vthe axle 2. ln order to elevate and carry longitudinal secthe oil from the well 3 of the journal box tothe blass or hearing block 4 whereby it may be distributed thereovor, disks, paddle wheels andthe like have been heretofore provided which arecarr-iodfby and secured to the'outer en d ofthe axle 2 so that upon the rotation of the axle the disk will elevate the .oil above the hearing block 4 and de-l posit the Same thereupon. lf the axle 2 is revolving very fast, disks as heretofore used will cause the oil to be depositedlupon the bearing block 4 but as 'the axles do not'at all times rotate at a very high speed these disks will not elevate the oil unless there is provided suitable means for collecting the oil upon the disk. Therefore, by the presentl invention I have devised an oil elevating 'device or paddle whereinthe oil will at all limes be collected during the rotationthereo and deposited upon the bearing block 4.
The oil elevating device or. paddle embodying the present invention is preferably of strap metal having a hub portion 5 provided With suitable neans through which' av fastening member (3 may extend for securing this elevating paddle to the outer end ot' the raxle-,2. rlhe several faces of the paddle are so formed as to provide opposed pockets 7 and 8 and these pockets having points ofvgreatest depth upon the opposite` sides of its perpendicular axis which latter is indicated by the'ln'oken line A-B as illustrated in Figure 2 of the drawing. These pocketl as it will be evident l'roni Figure of the drawing do not extend to tho outer edges f) of the paddle` whereby av plain outer edge will be jn'ovided which will cut through the oil contained within the well 3 ot' the journal box and will not beat the oil or stir the same'as it )asses therethrough. Formed within the pail of openings .1.0 which provide the means of a communication between the oil collecting pockets 7 and 8 as well as permitting a portion of the oil contained within the pockets 8 to flow to the bearing block 4 during the rotation of the journal to which the paddle is attached.
From Figure 1 of the drawingr it is obvious that when the paddle 'embodying the present invention is applied'to the endof an axle 2 the'projecting end 4 of the bearing block extends within the pocket 7 so that upon the rotation of the paddle the oil contained within this pocket 7 will be caused to flow upon and below theprojecti'on 4 so dle are a plurality.

that it may beievenl distributed over the-l *comprising a metal strap,` a. hub portion formed therewith' adapted to be connected several faces of said paddle `being formed with opposed pockets adapted to collect the oilvithin the journal box during the rotationA thereof said pockets having points of greatest de th upon the opposite sides of the perpen icular axis of the paddle, said- Larmes 'pockets having outletiopenings at one side ofthe i' addle whereby the 'oil contained within t e pockets may ow' upon the bearing of the' 'ournal'box during the rotation thereof and] blades formed with the outer ends of said strap.
