SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 342,539, dated May 25, 1886.
Application filed DecemberlS, 1985. Serial No. 185,723. (No model.)
.To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, ABIJAH L. ROMANS and JOHN M. PEREGRINE, both of Jamestown, in the county of Chautauqua and State of New York, have invented a new and Improved Oombined Anti-Rattler and Thill-Bolt Holder, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
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 l is a side elevation of our invention, shown applied to the axle and thill, the axle being shown in section. Fig.2 is an inverted plan view of the same. Fig.3is an enlarged plan view of the clip-plate removed, and Fig. 4 is aperspeetive View of the bolt-holding and tension lever removed.
The invention will first be described in connection with the drawings, and then pointed out in the claims.
A represents the thill-clip,constructed to be applied to the axle B and to receive the thilll eye 0 and thill-bolt D in the ordinary manner. The clip-plate E has the bolt-holding and tension lever F pivoted to it, preferably upon the stud a, rigidly secured to or formed upon the side extension, b, of the plate. The forward part or exteusion,c,of the clipplate E forms the fulcrum c for the spring G, that prevents rattling, and for attaching the spring G to the clip-plate the loop (Z is formed at the forward end of the extension 0, through which the spring passes, and in which it is held, as shown clearly in Fig. 1.
The spring Gis formed with the upper extension, 9, and with the lower or rear extension, 9'. The upper extension, g, reaches from the fulcrum 0 up to the thill-eye 0, against which it is adapted to press for preventing the eye and bolt D from rattling. The rear extension, g, reaches from the fulcrum a back to and somewhat past the stud a, on which the lever F is pivoted, and in line with the stud a, or nearly in line therewith. The extension 9 is formed with'a cam-actingenlargement or curve, for the purposes hereinafter described.
The lever F is for putting a tensioirupon the spring G, and also for holding the thillbolt D in place.
the spring so that by simply swinging the It is arranged in relation toarm f of the lever toward the bolt D the arm it will put a tension upon the spring G, and the spring in turn will hold the plate portion f ABIJAH L. ROMANS AND JOHN M. rnunenmn, or JAMESTOWN, NEW YORK;
arm h of the lever F stands at right angles, or
downward from the hub 'i of the lever, and its outer end is turned slightly upward, so that it will act against the enlargement or curve g" of the spring G, when the lever F is turned from the position shown in dotted lines to that shown in full lines in Fig. 2, and thus lift the rear or lower extension, 9, of the spring G. The spring being fulcrumed at c, the upward movement of the rear extension, caused by arm h,will throw the upward extension, g, forward, so that it will press with considerable force against the thill eye O,and thus constitute an anti-rattler. The arm his in such position relative to the arm f and to the cam enlargement or curve g that when the plate portion f comes against the head of the bolt D the extremity of the arm It will have passed the crest of the cam-curve 9', so that said curve acts to lock the lever F in the position shown in full lines, so that while the lever F serves to put atension upon the spring Gto prevent rattling the spring reacts upon the lever F and causes it to hold the bolt D securely in place in the clip and thill-eye.
To remove the bolt D for detaching the thill, the lever F has simply to be swung to the po sition shown in dotted lines in Fig. 2, which can be easily done by any small rod or lever, so that'with this arrangement there are no keys or nuts to handle and getlost, and no separate anti-rattler to keep in place.
Having thus described our invention, what we claim as new, and desire to secure by Let- 'ters Patent, is-
1. As a new article of manufacture, a combined anti-rattler and thill-boltholder consisting of a fulcrumed spring and a bolt-holding and tension lever formed with two arms, one to act upon the spring, the other to press against the bolt, the springtbeing arranged to act upon the thill-eye and to react upon the a I r. 342,539 J lever, and formed with a cam or eurveto hold having arms f and h, substantially as and for the lever in position against the bolt, substanthe purposes set forth. f tially as shown and described. 5.
