WILLIAM H. HITESHEW, OF PERU, INDIANA.
IMPROVEMENT IN COMBINED POLE AND SHAFTS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 1 86,086, dated January 9, 1877; application filed August 14, 1876.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, WILLIAM H. HITE- SHEW, of Peru, in the county of Miami and State of Indiana, have invented a new and Improved Combined Pole and Shaft Apparatus for Carriages, of which the following is a specification My invention is a contrivance of the shafts and their connecting devices whereby they may be readily shifted into suitable position for forming a pole for two horses.
Figure l is a plan view of my improved apparatus arranged for use as a pole. Fig. 2 is a plan view, showing one of the shafts in position for use as such, and the other in process of shifting. Fig. 3 is a detail in plan view.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
A is the double-tree, which is pivoted to the tongue B of the hounds G at D, and located under a rigid crossbar, E, to which the anglebraces F are pivoted at Gr, and a shaft, J, is pivoted to each brace at I, so thatit can swing around to the center, as in Fig. 1 for use as a pole, or to the side, as in Fig. 2, for a shaft, the brace being in the former case bolted to the shaft at K, to the shaft and the crossbar E at L, to the cross-bar at N, and to the hounds at M, and in the latter case bolted to the shaft at L M, to the shaft and the hounds at K, and to the cross-bar at N. The whiffletrees P are attached to the evener A at Q,
when the shafts are used as in Fig. 1, and the angle-braces are bolted at the angle between the clip R and the cross-bar E, the clip being secured under the stay S for the evener T in such case, but being removed when the evener is put in for the shafts.
The shafts are connected at the outer ends, when used as a pole, by the metal point U, which has a kind of double clamp-socket, V, that slips onto the ends of the poles, and fastens by an eccentric ring, W, a bolt, or other device. The shafts are also connected together in this position by the plate X.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patentl. The combination of the angle-brace F, cross-bar E, shaft J, and hounds O, substan tially as specified.
2. The evener A, cross-bar E, angle-braces F, and shaft J, combined and arranged substantially as specified.
3. The angle-braces pivoted to the cross-bar at G and to the tongue at I, and arrangedjor bolting to the tongue, cross bar, and the hounds, substantially as specified.
4. The combination of the point U and clamp V With the shaft J, substantially as specified.
