ALPHEUS O. W ILBUR, OF DAVIS, MICHIGAN.
V VEHICLE-SPRING.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 268,582, dated'December 5, 1882.
Application filed August 2, 1882. (No model.)
To all 'wliom, tt may concern Be it known that I, ALPHEUS O. WILBUR, of Davis, in the county of Macomb and State of Michigan, have invented new and useful Improvements in Vehicle Springs; and I'do class which are provided with bolsters upon which the body or box rests; and the invention consists in the peculiar construction and combination of parts, as more fully hereinafter described.
Figure 1 is a perspective view of my improved spring. Figure 2 is an elevation from the opposite side.
In the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification, A represents two coil-springs of equal size inclosed between the top plate,B, and the bottom plate, G, the whole being secured together by means of the bolts D, the parts being so arranged with relation to the bolts that when the springs are compressed by pressure upon the top plate the lower ends of the bolts will project through the bottom plate. The bottom plate is provided with the cars a, designed to embrace the wagonstake, and the top plate is provided with the lugs d, coincident in vertical position to the lugs a, and it performs the double office of emears on are designed to be secured to the stake by a bolt passing through said ears and the stake through the hole b. In practice four of these springs are requiredone at each end of the front and rear bolsters and by their use'a very cheap and effective spring is obtained.
1 am aware of Patent No. 256,564, of 1882, in which duplex springs are'housed in a casting which rests upon 'the bolster, and such construction is not sought to be covered in this application.
What I claim as my invention isv 1. The bottom plate, which forms the bed for the springs, having flanges to embrace the bolster'and perforated ears to embrace the wagon-stake, and be secured thereto, combined with the top plate having flanges to embrace the said stake near its upper extremity, the
springs, and bolts, as set forth.
2. In combination with a bolster, its stake, and the body of a wagon, the bed-plate O, having lugs c and ears a, perforated at b, the top plate, B, having ears 0?, the bolts D, and the springs A, as and for the purposes set forth.
ALPHEUS 0. WILBUB.
