CHARLES T. SHREVE, OF DELAXVARE, CAMDEN COUNTY, NEW JERSEY.
HOOD FOR VEHICLE-TOPS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 300,520, dated June 1'7, 1884.
Application filed November 13, 1883. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, CHARLES T. SHREVE,
' of Delaware township, in the county of Gamden and State of New Jersey, have'invented a new and useful Improvement in Hoods for Vehicle-Tops, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
Reference is to be had to the accompany ing drawings, forming a part of this specifi' cation, in which similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the fig ures.
Figure 1 is a front elevation of my improvement shown as applied to the front bow of a vehicletop. Fig. 2 isa sectional side elevation of the same, taken through the line- :t' m, Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a plan View of the hood extended. Fig. l is a plan view of the hood folded. Fig. 5 is a sectional elevation of the hood folded, taken through the line y 3 Fig. 4.
The object of this invention is to secure better protection from rain and snow to persons riding in top carriages than is attainable from the ordinary carriage-tops.
The invention consists in a hood for vehicle-tops formed of a plate made in two parts, connected at their adjacent edges by hinges, so that the said hood can be readily folded for convenient transportation. In the hobd, near its inner edge, are formed short slots, to receive the eyes of eye-screws screwed into the front bow of the carriagetop, so that the said hood can be readily applied and removed, as will be hereinafter fully described.
A represents the front bow, and B the cover, of an ordinary vehicle-top, which may be fixed or folding, as the character of the Vehicle may require.
0 represents the hood, which may be made of straw-board, book-binders board, leather, wood, metal, or other material that has the necessary flexibility, so that it will bend to fit the curved corners of carriage-tops, and that has the necessary stiffness to maintain itself bows. The hood 0 is made in two equal parts, which are connected at their adjacent ends by hinges D, as shown in the drawings, so that thesaid hood, when not required for use, can be folded and laid upon the seat beneath the cushion, so as to be wholly out of the way and out of sight. In the end and middle parts of the hood 0, near its inner edge, are formed short slots E, to receive the eyes of eye-screws F, screwed into the front bow, A, so that when the said eyes are in line with the slots E the hood 0 can be readily applied and removed, and can be secured in place by turning the eyescrews F one -quarter around, so as to bring their eyes across the slots E, as shown in Fig. 2.
The hood 0 can be covered with leather, rubber cloth, or oil-cloth, to correspond with the cover B.
I am aware that a vehicle-hood has been provided with a single hinge at one edge, upon which it may be folded by wrinkling thebody of the hood into deep plaits or folds, and that wagon top bows have been provided with hinges; but neither of these would be suitable for my stiffiplate hood, and I do not claim CHARLES T. SHREVE.
