IMPROVEMENT IN CARRIAGE-BODY ADJUSTERS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 217,342, dated July 8, 1879; application filed May 27, 1879.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that 1, JOHN GLEMENTs, of Rochester, in the county of Monroe and State of New York, have invented an Improvement in Carriage-Body Adjusters, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the annexed drawings, in which- Figure 1 is a side view of a carriagebody containing my improvement. Fig. 2 is a view of one sill of a carriage body having my invention attached, as seen from below. Fig. 3 is a vertical section on the line w 00, Fig. 1.
My invention relates to an improvement in carriage-bodies, and its object is to prevent the binding of the door in the door-frame when, from any cause, the body of the carriage sags so as to narrow the space for the door; and it consists in the combination of a screw-bolt and suitable straps attached beneath the body and so arranged that by turning the screw the door-space may be sprung open slightly.
In the accompanying drawings, (1 O represent a carriage body; D, the door A A, the straps, and B the screw bolt. The straps A A are formed to fit the sill of the carriagebody, and are secured thereto by screws or bolts E E. Underneath the door the straps A A terminate in lugs, through which passes the screw-bolt B, which may be of the ordinary form or made witha right and left hand thread, as shown in the drawings.
By turning the screw B the body of the car riage, the sill, and rocker plate F may be sprung slightly, so as to admit of the easy opening and closing of the door in case it has become jammed.
My improved carriage-body adjuster may be employed in any kind of carriage-body. It is more especially designed foruse on carriages having folding tops.
The straps A A may extend the whole length of the body, and, if desired, the bodyloops may be connected with them.
