JOHN S. SOHOFIELD, OF MACON, GEORGIA.
IMPROVEMENT IN VERTICAL PORTABLE ENGINES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No- 187,917, dated February 27, 1877; application filed January 15, 1877.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN S. SQHOFIELD, of Macon, in the county of Bibb, and in the State of Georgia, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Vertical Portable Engines; and do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, making a part of this specification.
The nature of my invention consists in the construction of devices whereby a vertical engine may be used as a portable engine, as will be hereinafter more fully set forth.
In order to enable others skilled in the art to which my invention appertains to make and use the same, I will now proceed to describe its construction and operation, referring to the annexed drawing, in which Figure 1 is a plan view, showing the engine arranged in horizontal position on a wagon. Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the same, showing I the engine in vertical position. Fig. 3 is a detail view of a part thereof.
A represents an ordinary wagon frame, mounted upon wheels B B, and provided with what is known as a carry-log, 0. Upon this is mounted a vertical engine, E, the boiler D of which is provided with trunnions a a, resting in boxes b b. To each trunnion a is secured a curved plate, d, which acts as a stop against the box b when the boiler is turned in an upright position, and prevents it from turning out of such position. Through the end of each stop-plate d a screw may be passed into the box to make the same perfectly secure. G is the reach of the wagon, which is used as a stake or brace at the rear end of the wagon to hold the same steady.
In Fig. 1 I have shown the engine in a horizontal position, it being turned upon its trunnions a a, and then securely held by a brace, I, as shown. The reach G is then re-.
placed in position in the wagon, and the whole apparatus ready for traveling.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is'
In combination witha wagon, A B, and carry-log O, the engine E, boiler D, with trunnions a, the boxes b, and stop-plates d, all substantially as and for the purposes herein set forth.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto set my hand this 26th day of December, 1876.
JOHN S. SOHOFIELD.
