WILLIAM L. RUSSELL, OF CAMBRIDGE, NEW YORK.
VEHICLE-SPRING.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 264,770, dated September 19, 1882 Application filed August 5, 1882. (No model.)
To all tr/tom it may concern Be it known that I, W. L. RUSSELL, o'i' Cambridge, in the county of Washington andState of New York, have invented a new and valuable Improvement in Vehicle-Springs; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the construction and operation ofthe same, reference being bad to the annexed drawings, making a part of this specification, and to the letters and figures of reference marked thereon.
Figure 1 of the drawings is a bottom view of my device. Fig. 2 is a side View of the same, and Fig. 3 is a cross-sectional view.
This invention has relation to side-bar or buckboard springs; and it consists in the construction and novel arrangement, in connection with longitudinal wooden spring-bars attached by their ends to the rear axle and front bolster, of the elongated under springs of metal, formed with middle spiral loops, engaging a transverse bar upon which the middle portions of the wooden springs bear, all as hereinafter set forth.
In the accompanying drawings, the letterA designates wooden side-bar springs, extending longitudinally, and secured in front to the bolster B and in rear to the axle O.
D represents a longitudinal under spring, made of steel, and having an upwardly-turned middle spiral loop, E, from which the arms F oi said spring extend toward the ends of the wooden spring-bar, the bearing ends 9 of said arms being connected tothe under side of said wooden spring-bar by means of loops or by providing a sliding connection or staple,h, for one end of the metallic spring, and rigidly securing the other end to the wooden bar. Through the loops E of the metal springs extend the ends K of a transverse bar, L, said ends being turned upward to engage socketbearings 11:, secured to the under side of the wooden spring-bars. The metal spring is designed to bear on the transversebar, which in turn bears on the middle portions of the wooden spring-bars, and when the latter are depressed by a load on the vehicle they will he supported by the elastic action of the metallic springs through the medium of the transverse bearing-bar, transferring the strain to a great extent to those portions of the wooden springs to which the ends of the arms F are connected, and which are nearer thefront and rear bases of support-the bolster B and the axle (J.
Having described this invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent,
A vehiclespring consisting of the wooden side-bar or buckboard springs A A, the lougitudinal under springs, D, having each a middle spiral loop, E, and being connected to the wooden springs by their ends, and the transverse bearing-bar L, having upturned ends engaging the middle portious of the wooden spring-bars, substantially as specified.
In testimony that I claim the above I have hereunto subscribed my name in the presence of two witnesses.
WILLIAM LUIH ER RUSSELL.
