IMPROVEMENT m BELLS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 190,242, dated May 1,1877; application filed February 12, 1877.
. is a central vertical transverse section of the bell, attaching-screw, and shaft to which it is attached.
My invention has relation to the construction of small bells, such, for instance, as are attached to sleigh-shafts, and called shaftbells.
My peculiar and novel construction enables me to cast the bell all in one piece,'complete for use, except attaching the tongues and attaching the bell to the shaft or the like, and if the bell be made of sheet metal it may be as completely struck vup all in' one piece.
This construction also enables me to attach the bell to the shaft or the like by means of a commonwood-screw, using a common screwdriver, so-that any sleigh-owner can readily attach as many or as few bells as he pleases, with a common screw-driver, such as almost every one possesses.
bell, near the periphery, one such set of holes on either side the center, and the upper ends of the tongue-wircsd 'areloosely looped around these bridges In the top of the bell there is also left a screw-hole, e, for the passage of the common wood-screw f, which connects th bell to the shaft g, or the like.
By this means of construction I get a bell which is very cheap of manufacture, very durable in use, very easy of attachment, and of excellent ringing quality.
I claim as my invention- 1. Abell all in one piece, and having the two sets of holes 12 c in the top for the attachment of the tongues, substantially as described.
2. A bell all in one piece, having the two sets of holes I) c in the top for the tonguewires, and the central screw-hole e, for the attaching-screw, substantially as described.
