Description
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE;
ELI HUNTSINGER, OF SACRAMENTO, CALIFORNIA.
' IMPROVEMENT IN VEHICl E-SPRINGS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 173,297, dated February 8, 1876; application filed December 31, 1875;
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known thatI, ELI HUNTSINGER, of Sacramento, in the county of Sacramento and State of California, have invented a new and valuable Improvement in Vehicle-Springs 5 and 1 do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the construction and operation of the same, reference being had to the annexed drawings, making a part of this specification, and to the letters and figures of reference marked thereon.
Figure l of the drawings is a representation of a plan view of my vehicle-spring, and Fig. 2 is a side elevation thereof.
This invention has relation to springs for vehicles; and the nature of my invention consists in re-enforced bridge-springs, extending longitudinally with respect to the-length of the runninggear, and terminating at their a a of these springs are connected together by transverse bars D D, and at the points where the ends of these bars are sustained leafsprings b b are applied on the springs O O, for the purpose of re-enforcin g them and affording long elastic bearings. At the extremities of the portions a a of the springs G G are coils or convolute springs c c, the extreme ends of which are rigidly secured to staples d d, fixed to the axles B B. The front and rear halfcoils of the convolute springs are re-enforced by means of leaf-springs e e, which stiffen the convolutes and prevent undue collapsing thereof when there is considerable weight on the bars D D.
It will also be observed that-the lower external portions of the convolutes are free to play through the staples d d, and that when there is an extraordinary weight upon the bars D D the portions a a will be brought down upon and sustained by portions of the convolutes c c.
What I claim as new, and desire to secure by LettersPatent, is
A vehicle-spring, O, composed of parts a b c e,-formed as described, and appliedto the axles of a vehicle by means of staples d (1, substantially as specified.
1n testimony that I claim the above I have hereunto subscribed my name in the presence of two witnesses.
ELI HUNTSINGER. Witnesses:
JOHN FEAKINS, N. M. JAGOBSL.
