UNIT D STATES PATENT OFFICE.
ANDREW J. SEYLER, OF GEDARVILLE, ILLINOIS.
SIDE-BAR-VEHICLE GEAR.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 239,625, dated April 5,
Application filed November 6, 1880. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, ANDREW J. SEYLER, of Oedarville, in the county of Stephenson and State of Illinois, have. invented certain new and useful Improvements in Side-Bar-Vehicle Gear, of which the following, in connection with the accompanying drawings, is a specification.
Figure 1 is a side view of the arched side bar. Fig. 2 is a like view of the support for the side bar. Fig. 3 is a side elevation of the gear, showing the box attached. Fig. 4 is a rear View of a buggy provided with gear embodying my invention, and'Fig. 5is a perspective of the gear detached.
Like letters of reference indicate like parts.
In the drawings, A represents an arched side bar, made either of wood or of other suitable material. I deem it preferable to make on the bar A a central depending part or block, a.
B is a support for the bar A. I make this support of metal, by preference, and b b are upturned hooks, loops, or clasps, one at each end of the said support, and adapted to receive the axle and head-block, as shown in Figs. 3 and 5, in which 0 is the axle, and c the head-block. The bar A extends to the hooks I) b, and is secured to the support B by means of clips (1 d. The support B, as shown, is by preference slightly arch ed, and meets the lower face of the block l U G are the side springs. These springs are half-elliptic, and their convex faces are clownward, and their central portions rest on the bars A A. These springs, the side bars, and side-bar supports may be connected centrally to each other either by means of clips (1 d or by bolts and nuts 0 e.
D D are the cross-springs. These crosssprings are arched, and their ends are supported by and secured to the ends of the springs G O. The carriage-body hangs or rests on the central parts of the springs D D, and is secured thereto in any well-known and suitable way.
It will be perceived from the foregoing de scription, and from reference to the drawings, that the side bars and their supports constitute strong and durable supports, and firm neat connections for the rear axle and the head-block, to which the said bar-supports may be secured. It will also be perceived that the side springs, by being bowed downward, as shown, and by being attached at their centers to the side bars, have free ends, and hence that the wheels, in passing over obstruct-ions, will not necessarily elevate the ends of these springs to a height equal to that of the obstruction.
It will also be perceived that the gear, as a whole, is light, springy, and graceful in appearance, but strong, and that it may be constructed and applied to use with facility.
It will also be perceived that the side bars and their supports serve the purpose of areach, and that no other connection for uniting the axle 0 and head-block c is essential.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
The combination, in gear for side-bar vehicles, of the side bars, A A, and the side-bar supports B B, having bent ends b b, for support on the axle and head-block, substantially as specified.
