WHEELBAR'ROW.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 363,168, dated May 17, 1887.
Application filed Octobcrll,1886. Serial No. 215,875. (No model.)
To all whom it Duty concern:
Be it known that I, J GEN PETERSON, a citizen of the United States, residingin the city and county of San Francisco and State of California, haveinvented a new and useful Wheelbarrow, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvements in wheelbarrows; and it consists in the construction of the parts.
It will bereadily understood by reference to the accompanying drawings and the letters referring thereto.
Figure 1 is a side elevation; Fig. 2, an under plan View; Fig. 3, a broken view of the end of side rail in perspective; Fig. 4, a perspective view ofthe boxing or 'ournal-bearing; Fig. 5, a perspective broken view of a side rail varied a little in form from that shown in Fig. 3. Fig. 6 shows the wheel in perspective.
A represents the tray of the wheelbarrow; B and B, the side rails ofthe wheelbarrow; O, the handles; D, the rim of the wheel; E, the arms or spokes of the wheel; F, the axle; G,
' the journals; H, the legs; I, thejournal-box;
J, the journal-bearing; K and K, the boltholes; L, the attaching slot; M, the recess in the end of the side rail to receive, the journal box.
The following is the construction ofthe same: I form the tray of suitable sheet metal in the form shown and attach them to the side rails by rivets in the usual way for such construe tion. I form the side rails from the T-iron or the beam-iron which are shown in Figs. 3 and 5. Thehandles are easily forged bysimply bending down the flanges and hammering them round as far in upon the end as is required for a good handhold. Forplacingtheboxing for the Journals I cut out the mortise M from between.
the flanges O and N or N and N and form the boxing I for the journal-bearings with a slot or mortise, J, to receive the connecting part or trunk. I then slip thejournal-box in upon the trunk, between the flanges O N or N N, and boltit fast through the bolt-holes K and K, which, in combination with the flanges O and N or'N and N, hold the journal-box I firmly in place; and the wheel may be removed by unholting and taking out thejournal-boxes I.
The spokes Eare made offiat iron andstand at an angle, so as to-brace the wheel, as shown. There are eight of these spokes, and in order to employ the square iron for the axle,it is twisted in the center so as to turn the different ends of the axle one-eighth of a revolution, thus leaving a flat surface perpendicular to the point ofattachment of the outer end ofthe spoke, and alternating, so that four of the spokes are attached to one half of the axle and four to the other part, so forming a stronglybraced and suffieiently-flexible wheel, which may be readily constructed from such mate rial as is in common use and readily obtained.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, 1s-
1. In metal wheelbarrows, the journal-box I, with attaching-slot L, bearing J, and bolthole K, in combination with the side rail, B, having the recess M and bolt-hole K, the flanges N and N or N and O, and handles C,
constructed and operated substantially as and for the purposes set forth.
2. The twisted axle F and arms E, in combination with the rim D, constructed substantiallyas and for the purposes set forth.
JOHN PETERSON.
