Description
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
ROBERT A. MORSE, OF RAGINE, WISCONSIN.
SIDE-BAR WAGO N.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 229,167, dated June 22, 1880. Application Tiled March 15, 1880. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that 1, E0131. A. MORSE, of Racine, in the county of Racine, and in the State of Wisconsin, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Flexible Side Bars for Road-Wagons; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof.
My invention relates to side bars for roadwagons, buggies, 850.; and it consists in the device hereinafter described.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a top view of the running-gear of a light vehicle having my invention embodied therein. Fig. 2 is a side view of one of my side bars. Fig. 3 is a crosssection. Fig. 4 is a like section of a modified construction.
A is the side bar, which may be made much lighter than the ordinary side bar, and B is a re-enforcing spring. This spring is attached to the center of the side bar and extends nearly to its ends each way, where it is received by ears 0 c, in which its ends play as the side bar vibrates up and down.
To prevent friction between the spring and bar, I interpose blocks d, of rubber, leather, or other suitable material, which I generally place about the bolts b,'thus keeping them from contact with each other. By this construction a space will be left between the bolt and the side bar, which may be inclosed by concaving the bar, as shown in Fig. 4, and placing the blocks in the concavity, the rims of which come flush with the spring at each side.
Instead of bolts b, I may use one or more clips, and instead of ears 0 c, I may slot the spring at each end and use a bolt; and I may carry the C-sprin gs from one end tothe other of the side bar, so that the bar will work on the spring, Without departing from the spirit of my invention.
I find that my device will work equally well with the ordinary C springs shown in the drawings or with leaf or cross springs-in fact, in any position in which the ordinary side bar can be placed. Of course, spring B may be composed of two ormore leaves, if desired, and have any desired outline in cross-section.
My side bar will not only be sightly and graceful in appearance, but will serve as a spring 'as well and greatly conduce to the comfort of the occupants of the vehicle.
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. A side bar for road-wagons, buggies, 860., reenforced by a spring attached at or near its center and having loose ends, as described.
2. The combination of side bar having ears 0 c with spring-attaching bolts or clips-and blocks 11, as described.
3. The combination of side bar having concaved upper face with spring attached at its center and blocks (1, as set forth.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto set my hand.
' ROBERT A. MORSE.
