GEORGE W. TAYLOR,
OF SUGAR HILL, ASSIGNOR TO FRANK J. BARTLETT, OF EASTON, NE HAMPSHIRE.
SLElGH-KN'EE.
SPECIFICATION forming part. of Letters Patent No. 301,404, dated July 1, 1884.
Application filed March 2-2, 1884. (No model.)
To 6055 whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, Gnonen W. TAYLOR, a citizen of the United States, residing at Sugar Hill, in the county of Grafton and State of New Hampshire, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Sleigh Knees;
' and I do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such tachments; and the novelty consists in the construction, arrangement, and adaptation of parts, as will be more fully hereinafter set forth, and specifically pointed out in the claims.
The essential object of the invention is to produce a novel and useful construction of a knee to a sleigh-runner, and in the specific application shown such knee is peculiarly adapted to be used with the body and axles of a wheeled vehicle, the wheels being removed and the axle-spindles used as hearing in the knee. 1
The invention is fully illustrated in the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification, and in which Figure 1 is a side elevation showing my invention, Fig. 2 a top plan view, and Fig. 3 a longitudinal vertical section.
I will describe the invention as employed in applying sleigh-runners to the body of a wheeled vehicle; but it will be evident that much of the mechanism may be used with equal success and efficiency in ordinary sleighs. I
- Referring to the drawings, in which similar letters of reference indicate like parts in-all the figures, A designates an ordinary runner under the runner-clip B, said clip having recesses b, which receive the vertical bolts 0,
ceive the bolts 0, and the cap-plate D of the body I) has similar recesses, d", for a similar purpose. The body D, in a direction at right angles to the plane of the runner, forms a conical bearing corresponding with the form of an axle-spindle, m, and it is provided with a slot, (2 through which a pin, n, secured to said spindle, operates to hold the spindle in place and at the same time allow for the rocking motion of the'axle due to the changes made in the position of the runner.
G designates a brace-cap, the body 9 of which has an extended bearing on the cap-plate D, and has bolt-holes g, to receive the upper ends of the bolts 0, and the inclined arms G of which extend forward and backward, and are secured to the runner, as at 9 .I attach importance to the bracket D both I in its relation to the vehicle male or spindle and to the runner. The recesses d (1 give a firm bearing upon the bolts (J. The projection at relieves said bolts of a portion of their strain, and the cap-brace G assists the bolts and step to hold the bracket in place. The clip B is held in one direction to the runner by the flanges If, in different directions by the recesses b and the bolts, as well as by the perforated step I). With this system of securing parts the entire knee isheld by the simple bolts (3 and brace-cap G, and may be readily taken apart when desired.
The diverging arms D in connection with the extended bearing of the spindle, afford firm supports in a direction transverse to the plane of the runner, and the braces G serve efliciently against strain in a direction parallel with such plane. In minor details of construction modifications may be made without departing from the principle or sacrificing the advantages of my invention, the essential features of which will be readily understood.
Having thus described the invention, what I claim as new is 1. In combination with the runner A and 5 spindle m, the bracket D, as described, having'reccsses d d, and projection d, the pin a, and securing-bolts, as set forth.
2. In combination with the bolts (3, bracecap G G, and bracket 1), having recesses d dfl projection d, and conical bearing, the spinbination with a runner, A, and bolts 0, the 10 dle m, and pin n, as set forth. said clip having flanges b substantially as 3. The bracket described, having base D, shown and described.
