THOMAS S. MORGAN, OF NEW COLUMBIA, ILLINOIS.
IMPROVEMENT IN SPOKE-SETTING MACHINES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent N 0. 176,235, dated April 18, 1876; application filed March 13, 1876.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that -I, THOMAS S. MORGAN, of New Columbia, in the county of Massac and State of Illinois, have invented an Improvement in Spoke-Setting Machines, of which the following is a specification:
In the accompanying drawing, Figure 1 represents a top View, and Fig. 2 a vertical central section, of my improved spoke-setting machine on the line 0 c, Fig. 1.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
My invention relates to a machine for setting and driving spokes in a rapid and convenient manner, so that the exact inclination of all the spokes is obtained; and the invention consists of a vertically-adjustable hubsupporting frame in connection with a stationary spoke-setting top ring.
In the.drawing, A represents the supporting-frame of my improy'ed spoke-setting machine, and B the lateral adjustable frame,which is placed on springs to be moved vertically up and down by bolts and crank-nuts O. The hub is placed on a central bolt, D, of the lateral frame B by a top washer and fastening crank-nut, D, being rigidly secured thereby in position thereon. The top part of frame A supports the guide or set ring E, on which the spokes are placed for being set into the hub and driven in. After the hub is fastened in central position to the top ring E the adjustable frame is screwed down until the center line-of the hub is on a level-with the circle; then the hub is dotted above the leveling straight-edge, and the bolts unscrewed until the desired dish or set of the spokes is obtained, which is necessary, as all hubs are made with straight front and sloping back mortise, throwing thereby the ends of the spokes forward at some inclination. The
spokes are then all fitted into the hub by be--
