JAMES H. SINCLAIR, OF DENVER, COLORADQ, ASSIGNOR OF ORE-HALF TO WILLIAM MALONY, OF SAME PLACE.
BUCKBOARD-WAGON.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 277,359, dated May 8 1883.
' Application filed March 3, 1883. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JAMES H. SINCLAIR, a citizen of the United States, residing at the city ofDenver, in the county ofArapahoe and State of Colorado, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Buckboard-Wagons, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings. v
Thisinvention is in thenatureof an improvement in the mode of swinging the slatted bottom of buckboa-rd-wagons; and the invention and the discomfort incident to the ordinary buckboards is overcome.
In the accompanying drawings illustrating my invention, in the several figures of which like parts are similarly designated, Figure 1 is a longitudinal section on the plane of the broken line of Fig. 3. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section of a modification. Fig. 3 is a central transverse section of Fig. 1, and Fig. 4 is a top plan view of Fig. 2. y
The vfront and hind axles are connected by side bars, aa, which receive irons b b at opposite ends, to which irons are, preferably loosely, jointed springs c 0, extending longitudinall y of said bars. The seat (I is supported upon these side springs by pillow-blocks e e, bolted to the springs.
As shown in Figs. 1 and 3, the slatted bottom fof my wagon is suspended without attachment thereto between the springs and side bars, and is supported in this position by vertical braces g g and diagonal or truss braces h h, depending from the seat. The whole burden thus is thrown upon the seat, and thence upon the springs, and therefore the load is easily drawn and the riding made easier and less jerky, and a free swing permitted the body in going over bad roads.
Instead of swinging the wholeof the slatted bottom from the seat, I may divide it and secure the rear halt, f, Figs.2 and 4, to the side bars, and the front half, f, to the braces g h h, which suspendit from the seat. This construction stifi'ens the wagon somewhat without in the least impairing the excellent riding qualities of that previously described. Either construction admits of the low hanging of the body.
What I claim is- 1. A backboard-wagon provided with side bars, side springs, a seat supported upon such springs, and a bottom wholly or in part swung from said seat, substantially as shown and de- JAMES H. SINCLAIR.
