VEHICLE DASH FASTENING.

"""IUIIIIIIIIIIIII Ninn STATES FRANK O. AYER, OF COLUMBUS, OHIO.-
VEHICLE-DASH FASTENING.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 271,017, dated January 23, 185.3.v
' Application filed @nobel-16, 188g. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, FRANK C. AYER,a citizen of the United States, residing at Collinibus, county of Franklin, and State of Ohio, have invented new and useful Improvements ill Vehicle-Dash Fastenings, of which the following is a specification.
My improved dash-fastening is adapted for use with a frame having short feet forged with or. welded to the lower bar, as in the patent of Lance and Elliot, of August 29, 1882; and the object of my improvement is to provide a fastening adapted for such integral feet in the dash-frame of a phaeton, surrey, or buggy, which have no solid front to bolt through, as required by the fasteningshownin such patent.
In the drawings hereunto annexed I have illustrated in Figure 1 my improved dash-fastening as applied to a portion of a covered dashframe and to a portion of the frame of what is known as a bracket front vehicle-body; Fig. 2, a vertical section of the same; Fig. 3, a portion of the dash-frame with its short integral foot, and Fig. 4 lthe foot-fastening.
The dash-fralne has short feet a welded or forged with its lower bar near each end. That portion b of the foot which joins the bar is in oblique line withV the frame, and extends downward a sufficient distance to allow the leather covering to be stitched along the lower edge of the bar, without obstructing the operation of the sewin g-machine, by reason of the lateral projection of the foot below its joining with said bar. This lateral projection forms a shoulder, c, which stands out from the inner front ofthe frame, from which the foot extends down parallel with the dash-frame, so as to stand between the lower part of the dash-leather and the front edge of the vehicle-body front, to which said integral foot is secured by a sepa- This separate foot is aat bar,
adapted to t upon the shoulder c of the integralfoot, and having an end bearing part, f, below itsshoulder, adapted to it against the integral foot a below its shoulder. The shoul- -dered end of the separate foot is enlarged to separate foot is bolted to the upper surface of 5o the side bar of the body-front, and al bolt, g, secures it totheintegral dashffoot. The head of this bolt is iat ellough to lie between the lower part of the dash leather and the dashfoot, through a slot, z', in which said bolt passes, 55
and, passing up through the said body-bar and the separate foot, is secured by a llut,u,on its upper end.
I prefer to use a curved bolt, as shown, be-
cause it may be comparatively short, and to 6o seat its fastening-nut upon an inclined top portion of the separate foot; but a straight bolt might be used, passing obliquely through the body-front and the feet below their shouldered joining. This construction clamps the dashand to maintain the shouldered bearings in such adjustment. Y
It will be understood that the bolt passing obliquely through the three joined parts-that is to say, the front end of the side bar, B, of the body-front, the hat front end of the separate 8o footd, and the foot a of the dash-frame-gives a clamping action of the bolt obliquely across the three joined parts, binding the shouldered bearing-surfaces of the metal feettirmly together and the dash-frame feet firmly against the body-front. This method of fastening a dash and the construction by which the fastening is effected is the improvement which I clainl.
