VEHICLE RUNNING GEAR.
No. 332,930; Patented DemZZ, 1885.
' Jam/M 7. KCWMA 421ml L7 W0 f! UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
ALEXANDER MOPHERSON AND FRANKLIN F. RAMsDAIL, 0F YPSILANTI, MICHIGAN.
VEHICLE RUNNING-GEAR.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 332,930, dated December 22, 1885.
Application filed November 17, 1883. Renewed October 10, 1885. Serial No. 179,531. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it kn own that we, ALEXANDER MoPHER- soN and FRANKLIN P. RAMsDAIL, of Ypsilanti, in the county of Washtenaw and State of Michigan, have invented a new and useful Improvement-in Equalizing-Bars, of which the following is a specification.
Figure 1 is a perspective of an axle and bolster, and Fig. 2 is a vertical section longitudinally through the bolster.
Our invention consists, first, in the combination of a hollow bolster with an equalizingbar placed Within the bolster; and, second, in a hollow bolster.
A represents a bolster of the form commonly used on buggies; but instead of being made solid, as usual, it is made hollow, and preferably cast in metal, which gives increased strength Without increased weight.
B represents an equalizingbar-such as is used on side-spring buggies-passing through bolster A, and having fastened to its ends two stirrups, O O, to which the springs D are fastened in the usual manner.
H represents the front axle, to which the bolster is fastened by a king-bolt, E, usually attached to a clip which passes around the bolster.
In forming or casting the bolster A, bearings F, at the ends thereof, and G, intermediate, are preferably made to fit the equalizingbar B, so that the shell of the bolster may be made as thin as is consistent with strength.
The rear attachment of the springs to an equalizing-bar similar to B is made in the or- 5 bolster by clips, so that the equalizing-bar lies 0 directly behind the bolster, and tends to twist or turn the bolster and bend the king-bolt, besides adding to the number of visible parts. In our invention this is entirely obviated, for the equalizing-bar bears vertically on the bolster without tending to turn it at all, and only the stirrups O O are in sight. The stirrups O C may be placed horizontal, as shown in the drawings, or in any other position which suits the taste of the builder.
What we claim as our invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. A hollow bolster having bearings for an equalizing-bar, substantially as described.
2. In combination with a hollow bolster, an 55 equalizing-bar placed within the bolster, substantially as shown and described ALEXANDER MGPHERSON. FRANKLIN P. BAMSDAIL. Witnesses:
DARWIN O. GRIFFIN, CLARENGE M. HARRIS.
