CLIP KING BOLT.
No. 316,191. Patented Apr. 21, 1885.
WILLIAM C. SHIPHERD, QFCLEVELAND, OHIO.
CLIP Kme-BOLT.
SPECIFICATION forming part oi' Letters Patent No. 3115,191, dated April 21, 1885.
Application filed August 2,6, 18,84. (No model.) i
To all whom it may concern:
Beit known that I, WILLIAM C. SHIPHERD, of Cleveland, in the county of Cuyahoga and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in. Clip King-Bolts; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it pertains to make and use the same.
My invention relates to improvements in clip king-bolts, the object being to arrange the parts so as to relieve the king-bolt from all lateral strain and to confine the turning of the bolt, and consequently the wear of the same, entirely to the head of the bolt and the engaging part.
With these objects in view my invention consists in certain features of construction and in combination of parts hereinafter described, and pointed out in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure l is an elevation in section of a axle and headblock with my improved clip king-bolt attached. Fig. 2 is a side elevation ofthe same with the head-block omitted. Fig. 3 is a view in perspective of the king-bolt. Fig. 4 is a View in perspective of the nut-lock.Y Fig. 5 is a view in perspective of the head-block and perch-plate from the upper side, showing the take-up'spring. Fig. 6 is a view in perspective of the nut F.
A and A represent, respectively, the wood provided with the shoulder b,that engages the head of the bolt D, and, when the parts are new,rseparates the head of the bolt a short distance from the end of the part c. The bolt D has a square shank that iits into a square hole in the plate C, by means of which the bolt and plate turn together, causing the bolthead to turn in the clip B. The plate C has a boss, c2, on top, provided with an annular chamber, c3, in which is located the take-up springE, that surrounds the upper portion of the bolt.
F is a cap-nut that screws onto the end of the bolt D, and when tightened holds the plate C and the clip B together, and also compresses the spring E into the chamber c3.
G is the nut-lock with a hole, g, adapted to embrace the upper portion of the nut F, and sloping downward on either side so that the ends lie Eat on the plate C. Holes g' are provided for securing the part Gr to the headblock. The nut-lock and contiguous parts are let into the wooden head-block H, and consequently are concealed when the parts are assembled.
I is the spring that is secured to the headblock by the clip J, the screw ends of which pass through the lugs c4 oi' the plate C.
rIhe parts K, projecting laterally from the plate C and integral therewith, are for the attachment of the reach in case a double reach is used. -In case a single reach is used there will be but one part K projecting from the center of the plate C, which would necessitate two clips,J ,arranged on either side of the center and corresponding lugs ct.
The part C, usually called the perch-platef7 has attached in the usual manner to the outer ends the top portion of the fifth wheel. (Not shown.)
As neither the bolt' D nor the nut F are turned in the part C, but remain stationary, it is evident that the wear on the bolt is confined to the head, that on account of its size, thickness, and strength, is adapted to sustain such wear for a long time Without material injury. Vith this construction there is but little strain on the bolt D, the draft being sustained by the interlocking parts of the plate C and clip B.
In actual use, if the bolt D were removed the clip B and plate C would maintain their respective positions under ordinary circumstances on smooth rods.
The take-up spring E keeps the bolt tight against the shoulder b and prevents the parts from rattling.
The socket in the part c that engages the shank of the bolt is preferably square, but not necessarily, as the shank of the bolt might be made of some irregular shape and the socket made to correspond.
rIhe essential feature is that the bolt shank and socket iit each other and are of such shape,
IOC
respectively7 that the bolt Cannot turn in the socket.
1. The Combination, with a elip having a hollow cylindrical bearing at its upper end and an annular shoulder below said bearing;7 of the plate having a boss adapted to t With in the cylindrical bearing of the clip, a recess adapted to receive the upper end of the clip, and areoess for the reception of a spring, a bolt the head of which rests against the annular shoulder of the clip, a spring encircling the bolt, and a nut for holding the bolt in position, substantially as set forth. 1
2. rlhe combination, with the plate C, of the boss c2, for r'e-enforoing the plate and integral with the same, and provided With the annular recess c3,for1ning a seat for the spring E, substantially as set forth.
3. The combination, with a elip king-bolt, 2o
'of the nut-look G, and the parts so arranged
