WHEEL HUB.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 341,861, dated May 11, .1886.
Application filed February 15, 1886. Serial No. 192,040. (No model.)
To aZZ whom it may concern:
Be itknown that 1, JOHN M. SWEET, a citizen of the United States, residing at Batavia, in the county of Genesee and State of New York, have invented new and useful Improvements in \Vheel-Hubs, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to wheel-hubs; and the purpose thereof is to provide a construction which shall not only embody the maximum degree of strength in the spokes and great holding-power in the hub, but at thesame time give graceful proportions to the parts composing the hub.
My invention consists in the combination, with a wooden core and face-piece,of a metallic band having staggered and inverted sockets for the spokes, the tenons of the latter being received by mortises in the core, which, as well as the facepiece, is provided with a collar underlying the end of the metallic band and abutting against the inverted sockets.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a longitudinal central section of a hub embodying my invention. Fig. 2is a transverse section in the plane m, Fig. 1..
In the said drawings the referencenuineral 1 designates a metallic band or annulus, of such width as to encompass that portionof the hub which receives the spokes and project upon both sides thereof. In this band are formed sockets 2, which I term inverted sockets, in view of the fact that they are pro j ected inwardly, instead of radiating from the outer surface of the band. These sockets are open at both ends, and are preferably formed as shown in the drawings--viz., with an alternated or staggered arrangement. The band 1 is supported upon a wooden core, 3, and facepiece 4. The former is constructed with a collar or enlarged portion, 5, of such diameter that the inner ends of the inverted sockets 2 rest thereon. In the collar are formed nior-- tises 6, which register with the inverted sockets, and are adapted to receive the tenons of 5 thespokes. An annular shoulder, 7, is also formed upon the core,which underlies the end or edge of the metallic band and abuts against the ends of the sockets on that side, and the other end of the core,is turned off to a smaller diameter to receive the facepiece 4, which is an annulus having a collar, 8, similar to the shoulder 7, and underlying the opposite edge of the metallic band,in the manner described. The face-piece is formed to closely embrace the diminished portion of the core and wholly surround the same. The spokes 9 are formed in the usual manner, and are inserted into the inverted sockets of the metallic band, as shown in Fig. 2, their tenons 10 being driven into the mortises in the wooden core.
The construction and arrangement of the parts give great strength, solidity, and holding-power, with a comparatively light structure.
Having thus described myinv'ention, what I claim is In a wheel-hub, the combination of a. wooden core having an annular shoulder near one end, a mortised collar adjacent to said shoul.der,and a reduced portion beyond said collar, a metallic band having staggered inward-projecting sockets resting on the lnortised collar and registering with staggered mortises formed therein, and a face'piece having a collar similar to the annular shoulder on the core, said face-piece being placed on the reduced outer end of the core, and, together with the coreshoulder,abutting alternately against the ends of the staggered sockets, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
JOHN M. SXVEET.
