THILL COUPLING.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 335,844, dated February 9, 1886.
Application filed October 24, 1885. Serial No. 180,833.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, ABIJAH L. ROMANS and JOHN M. PEREGRINE, of Jamestown, in the county of Chautauqua and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Combined Anti Rattler and Bolt-Holder for Thin-Couplings, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figures.
Figure 1 shows in sectional elevation a vehicle axle, a part of a thill, and a thill coupling and clip having our invention applied thereto. Fig. 2 is a plan view of the same. Fig. 3 is a perspective View of the anti-rattler and bolt-holder removed from the thill-coupling, and Fig. 4 shows a modification.
The invention consists of the special construction of the anti-rattler and bolt-holder, and of the combination of the same with a thill coupling and bolt.
The anti-rattler and bolt-holder A is composed, essentially, of a wedge-shaped spring formed or provided with a bolt-holding projection or arm, a, and it is formed, by preference, of a single plate of steel or other spring metal of suitable width and length folded upon itself to form the front plate, I), and rear plate, 0. The bolt-holding arm a is formed at one of the upper corners of the front plate, I), and projects outward, then downward in line with the edge of the front plate, and its extremity is then bent forward at right angles to the front plate to engage with a (hill-bolt. The rear plate, 0, is by preference bent slightly at c, to fit properly against the thill-clip B, and at the upper end of the plate 0 are formed the arms o c", that project forward and embrace the side edges of the front plate, 6, to act as guides thereto. These armsc o serve also to prevent the device, when in place in the clip 13, from slipping down too far between the cheek-pieces (Z d of the clip. The extremity of the bolt-holding arm a is by preference made small and round to enter a cavity or orifice, e, in the thill-bolt D, so that when the bolt is in place to hold the eye of the thill- (No model.)
iron E in and between the cheek-pieces of the clip and the extremity of arm a, inserted in the orifice e, the arm will securely hold the bolt from endwise movement.
The device will be put in place and removed from the coupling by means of a pair of pinchers applied to the upper edges of the plates b c, and it will be put in place after the bolt D is inserted, and when in place the front plate, I), will press against the eye of the thilliron and prevent it and the bolt D from rattling in the clip.
The bolt-holding arm a, besides serving to hold the bolt D in place, also serves to cause the bolt to lock the rattler in place in the clip so it cannot work up or.down.
In some cases, instead of adapting the arm a to enter an orifice in the bolt, we shall make it fiat and of considerable width, as shown in Fig. 4, to fit against the head of the bolt, so that our new antirattler may be applied to common thill couplings and bolts without any change.
Having thus described our invention, we claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- 1. As an improved article of manufacture, the combined anti-rattler and bolt-holder A, consisting of a wedge-shaped spring having its front plate, 12, provided with bolt-holding arm a, projecting from the upper edge of said plate, then bent downward, and its extremity bent forward to adapt it to enter a recess in the thill-bolt, and its rear plate, '0, provided with the guide-arms c", projecting forward and embracing the edges of the plate 0, as set forth.
2. The combination, with the clip B, the thill-iron E, and bolt D, recessed at e, of the wedgeshaped spring A, provided with the arm a, projecting downwardly and forward and entering the recess of the said bolt, and the guidearms c, projecting from the rear plate and embracing the edges of the front plate, substantially-as herein shown and described.
