IMPROVEMENT IN VEHICLE-SPRINGS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 212,742, dated February 25, 1879; application filed July 31, 1878.
n1ents in vehicle-springs; and the invention consists in. the special construction and arran gement of parts, which will be hereinafter more fully set forth.
In order to enable others skilled in the art to which lnyinvention appertains to make and use the same, I will now proceed to describe its construction and arrangement, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form apartof this specification,andin which--- Figure 1 is a bottom view of a wagon-body, showing my spring secured thereto. Fig. 2
is an end view. Fig. 3 is a view showing the end spring detached.
In the drawings, A represents the bottom board of a wagon bod y. The torsional springs B and O are preferably made in one piece, each spring being separate and distinct, as These springs shown in Fig. 1 of drawings.
B and O are secured to the bottom of the vehicle, and are held at or near the longitudinal center of the body by irons D, secured by bolts.
E or their equivalents.
The forward ends of the springs B and O are supported in sockets or bearings G, bolted to the bottom of the vehicle or secured to the sills of the body, as desired. Both ends of each spring B and O are bent laterally, formin g arms I, the ends of which are curved under, forming sockets J, to receive the ends K of the bolster or end springs L.
Torsional springs of various constructions have heretofore been used with side-bar and other springs, and I do not therefore desire to broadly claim such as my invention; but
hat I do claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
The combination of the springs B, G, and L with the irons D, bolts E, and bearings G, all
constructed and arranged substantially as shown and described.
