Description

UNITED STATES PATENT OEE cE.
FREDERICK ULRICH, E PERU, INDIANA.
WAGON-AXLE TRUSS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 312,676, dated February 2*, 1885.
App ication filed Dt cembe1z27, 1984.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I. FREDERICK ULEIoH, a citizen of the United States, residing at the city oflPeru, in the county of Miami and State of Indiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in a WVagon-Axle Truss; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same,
a reference being bad to the annexed drawings,
making a part of this specification, and to the letters and figures of reference marked thereon.
Figure 1 of the drawings is a front elevation of abolster and axle embodying my invention; Fig. 2, an under sideplan view,on an enlarged scale, of the axle, showing the manner of atinching the truss-rods thereto; and Fig. 3, a t nilar view of a modification of my invention.
The-present invention has relation to the manner of connecting the ends of truss-rods to the axles of vehicles, and is designed as an improvement on my former patent, No. 278,755, dated June 5, 1883; and the invention consists in bringing the ends or extremities of the truss-rods around lugs-depending from the under side of the axle, the ends of the rods being bent in opposite directions around each lug and secured by clampingplates, substantially as shown in the drawings, and hereinafter described and claimed.
In the accompanying drawings, A represents the axle, and B the bolster, said axle being provided with the usual thimble-skeins,0.
Upon the under side of the axle A, and near each end thereof, are depending lugs 11 c,
(No model.)
the outeixlugs, b, forming guides for the ends of the truss-rods D, which are bent around the lugs c, the extremities of the rods located between the lugs c abutting or bearing against each other, as shown, and are held in place between the lugs by the usual clamping-plates, d, and clips 0.
In Fig. 3 l have shown a modification of my invention, the extremities of the trussrods being bent in opposite directions to those shown in Fig. 2.
In the present instance I have preferred the use of two independent rods extending the entire length of the axle; but a single rod may be used, halved or split at its extremities and bent around the lugs in the manner above described; and, if preferred, the outer lugs, b, may be dispensed with, and the extremities of the truss-rods simply bent around the lugs c.
Having now fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
A truss for axles,consisting of a rod or rods passing between lugs depending from the under side of the axle andafterward bent around the same, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
In testimony that I claim the above I have hereunto subscribed my name in the presence of two witnesses.
FREDERICK ULRICH.
