Description

E.v S. MAYNARD.
Sleigh-Brake.
No. 37,141. Patented Dec. 9, 1862.
N KJ E L lLCS/S'CS; 9%, /f/ 55 ZIM UNITED STATES PATENT OEEICEo ELBERT S. MAYNARD, OF HANCOCK, NEW YORK.
IM PROVEM ENT IN SLElGH-BRAKES.
Speciiication forming part of Letters Patent No. 37,141, (lated December 9, 1862.
To all whom, it may concern.:
Be it known that l, ELEERT S. MAYNARD, of the town of Hancock, in the county of Delaware, in theState of NewYork, have invented a new and Improved Sleigh-Brake; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, in which- Figure 1 is a longitudinal section through the center of the sleigh, and Fig. 2 a perspective view of the brake.
The nature of my invention consists in a self-operating brake, which will be readily understood, in connection with the drawings, in which A is a slide, roughened on the bottom, with a crevice, m, lengthwise on the top, thus admitting the lever B B, which passes beneath the plates n n, which are bolted to the top of the brake, the bolt or check l serving to limit the action ofthe brake on the lever. The an- -gle of the lever 'B B is supported by the bearings. The bar T slides on the roller of the sleigh, and is cogged near the farther end to gear into the cog-wheel g, for the purpose of operating the corresponding series of levers on the other side ofthe sleigh, the shaft t connecting the cogwheel with the one on the other side corresponding to it. S S are double angular bolts supporting the shaft t, and on either side are bolted together by the crossplate n. W are plates fastened on the inside of the runner, and between the ruimer and roll, with holes or slots d for the bolts ot' the roll to work in, thus producing the raising or lowering of the brake, according to the action of the team upon the tongue.
What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
The combined arrangement of the brake A with lever B B and jointed bars P T, when connected with the cogged wheel g and roller moving in the slot D, the whole opera-ting and constructed in the manner described.
