Definitions

  • This invention relates to a device for guiding roller hoods and is chiefly useful for all weather motor coaches in'which the hood can 1 be sid along guides provided laterally on the roo
  • This device according to the invention is so arranged that the shocks reaching the guides from below are not transmitted to the hood.
  • the guided members are divided, the member carrying the hood being resiliently connected with thep'art of the guide which transmits the shocks. In this way breakages of the tilt hoops and the parts of the cover, are avoided.
  • the invention further consists in providing two guiding tracks of which one is arranged above and the other below and a two-part guiding carriage, the two parts being forced in opposite directions against the guiding tracks by means of springs.
  • a further object of the invention is to press the guiding rollers on to the guiding tracks, so that they cannot rattle, but still can easily be made to slide without exertion.
  • the invention also provides a three track guide, one guide track and the other oppositely directed guiding track having a double track so that the guiding carriage can fit the curves of the guide more easily.
  • FIG. 1 shows a motor omnibus with roller hood in elevation
  • Fig. 2 a tilt hoop with guiding carriage from the front partly in section.
  • Fig. 3 is a side elevation of Fig. 2.
  • a U-shaped continuous rail a preferably made of light metal, is employed ast e track the folding" having a single track ron POWER nnivnnvnmoms- 532,039, and in Germany March 14, 1930.
  • a spiral spring f presses the two parts apart. and thereby presses the four guiding rollers g of theupper part and the two track rollers h of the lower part of the guiding carriage against the tracks on the rail a.
  • the guiding rollers, g and the the guiding carriage track rollers 72, are mounted'loosely on their journals without'any special securing means. m isatongue'whichprevents relative rotation of the two partsof the guiding carriage To two lateral eyes of theupper part of the guiding carriage are jointed two.
