WVILLIAM H. STERLING AND DYSON D. ASS, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
CAR-AXLE LUBRICATOR.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 323,605, dated August 4, 1885.
Application filed October 23, 1884. (No model.)
To a whom, it may concern:
Be it known that we, WILLIAM H.TER- LING and DYSON D. "WAss, both of the city, county, and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Lubricators for Journals of Car and other Axles, of which the following is a full, clear, and ex act description.
The object of our invention is the constant and uniform lubrication of the journals of car and other axles by devices that can be readily inserted into and removed from the box; and theinvention consists in a spring-wire frame, of novel construction, carrying oiling-rollers, as hereinafter described and claimed.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, in which similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figures.
Figure 1 is a plan view, partly in section, of our oiling device. Fig. 2 is a side view, and Fig. 3 a front view, of the same.
A is a rectangular frame, made of light spring-wire bent to the required form, and with its ends a a bent inward at right angles and upward above the plane of the frame, so that the two ends form torsion-spring arms. At the point where the ends lap before being bent they are inclosed by a sleeve, Z1, that prevents separation. The arms a carry a spindle, (l, at their outer ends, one arm pass ing through the end of the spindle, while the other has an eye, 0, for the spindle that is retained thereon by a cross-pin, t. On the spindle is the roller 6, constructed of two or more disks of felt clamped together by washers f on a tube 9. The lower parts of these rollers dip in the oil and become saturated therewith, and take up and carry a large quantity of oil, and thus insure thorough lubrication of the journal.
In applying this device to a car-axle box the frame A is inserted into the box and arms a pressed down to allow the rollers to pass beneath the axle-j ournal. As soon as released the arms spring upward and carry the roller 6 into contact with the under side of the journal, against which the roller is continually pressed by the arms until the weight of the roller has become increased by being saturated with oil, whereupon the weight of the roller causes the spring-arms to yield and the roller sinks out of contact with the j0urnal, but when the car is in motion the jolting of the car or vehicle in passing over obstructions, such as the rail-joints of the track, causes the roller to vibrate up and down into and out of contact with the journal, and each contact of the roller with the journal delivers to the latter a supply of oil.
The frame A lies on the bottom of the box and fits the angles of the walls therein closely enough to retain its place and prevent dis placement of the roller. .Vhen the roller 6 is worn down too small for further use, the spindle can be taken out by removing pin i and a new roller put on.
The sleeve 1) serves to lock the spring-arms together where they unite to the frame, but we do not limit ourselves to the sleeve for that purpose, as the ends may be twisted together or otherwise interlocked at that point.
Having thus described our invention, we
claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- 1. An axle-lubricator made as herein show u and described, consisting of a rectangular bottom frame of elastic wire, one side of which is formed by the frame extremities, which projcct inwardly toward and above the center of the frame where said arms terminate, and are secured to an axle on which an oiling-roller is carried, as set forth.
2. An axle-lubricator consisting of a rectangular bottom frame of elastic wire the extremities of which form one side of the frame, and near the center of said frame side are bent inwardly and upwardly toward and above the central part of the frame, where they are connected with and carry a short axle and oiling-roller, substantially as herein.
shown and described.
3. In lubricators, the sleeve 1), combined with the wire frame A, and its torsionspring arms a, substantially as described.
