y This invention relates to means for pro- 'i Itis well known inthe art to longing the life of a radiator by reducing the strains and vibrations to which the more or less delicate core thereof subj ected'when in use; i Which this invention appertains that `considerable dificulty has been experienced Yin the past in safeguarding the core of a radiator from vibration and road shocks,and preventing the springing of leaksand general break down of the fabricated material ,composing such cores. This is experienced to a marked extent in motor vehicles of heavy types, such as trucks, particularly where it is not feasible to provide highly efcient shock absorbing means in thel vehicle itself; yand even where such means are provided the strains set up in the radiator by the motions of the vehicle have still to bevconte'ndedrwith.vr
, In order to overcome these disadvantages it has been, hitherto proposed vto provide in various ways for the stifening of the radiator withk a view to preventing the bending and warping of the shell sothat destructive strainsbetween the shell andthe core will not be set up, but it `will `be obvious that such methods will only be effective to the extent of their efciency in that regard and ,would still render the coreof the radiator liable to the destructive effects of road shocks and vibrations. It is, therefore, the purpose of this invention to effect the isolation of the core from the shell to a great extent, whereby it may be capable of movement with respect thereto and whereby, as a consequence, the said shell may be movable by I road shocks and vibrations with respect to the core without transmitting, such shocks and vibrations thereto to'any such degree as has been the case with devices of the type heretofore referred-to.
A still further object is to effect the rigid supporting of the shell of the radiator from the frame or body of the vehicle without affecting such rigid support of the core. And a still further object is to effect the resilient l suspension of the core wi-thin the shell and in spaced relation to the sides thereof. i
" Still further objects subsidiary to or re- 1924; Serial No. 723,262.
sulting from the .aforesaid objects or from the construction or operation ofthe invention as it may be carriedinto effect,will become apparent as the said invention is hereinafter further disclosed.`
In carrying the said invention into effec-t I may provide a radiator core and ashell of substantially greater width than Ysaid core, with a U-shaped saddle secured .within said shell the upwardlyextending arms of which arms of said` saddle andthe edges vofrsaid core and supporting said core fromsaid shell. All of which is more particularlydescribed and ascertained hereinafter, byway of example, having reference to theraccompanying drawings, wherein v l y a Figure 1 is a front elevation of a radiator embodying the said invention mounted upon the fra-me of avehicle, the frame being in# -dicated in section;
-Figure 2 is a plan ofthe same;
Figure 3 is a rear elevation of the said radiator; c
c Figure lis a transverse section of the same, taken on the line IX-f4* ofFigure l;
lFigure 5 is a sideelevation of the said radiator, and
Figure 6 is a vertical section of the same v taken on the line (3X-6X of Figure l.
In a preferredform of my device Il show the radiator as being mounted as a whole upon the framel of a vehicle by means of a yoke 2 having end members Senteringthe channels 'off the said frame, this yoke-being provided with forwardly extending lugs 4.
, The said radiator includes in its construction a shell 5 which may be of any convenient shape rearwardly projecting sides 6 and with-V in this shellk is a ksaddle comprising a base 7, which may have a central depressed part 8 to give-crank clearancewhen necessary, andupt Wardly extending arms 9, thek said saddle be- .ingin general ofa U shapedtconfiguration and substantially constructed of aV flat-metal strip bent `or forged to shape and secured to the sides ofthesaid shell by bolts or rivets 10 and 11.`: "Thesellatter bolts are shown ,as also eiiectingthelattacliment of lamp brackets 12 tothe said fshe'lLfIn the applicationof theV `saddleto the-yoke-g2, the base ofthe saddle v"restsmnf the liig'sliaiid isfseeured V'theretof by i means of bblts"l2a`s`ithattlie'sliell is thereby rendered` for all V`}`oractical purposes al rigid-g,
