UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
HENRY M. STODDARD, OE DENVER, COLORADO, ASSIGNOR OF ONE-HALF TO VALL St PURSEL, OE SAllIE PLACE.
SPRING-WAGON.
SPECIFICATION 'forming part of Letters Patent No. 374,278, dated December 6, 1887. Application filed April 30, 1887. Serial No. 936,636. (No model.)
To all whom) it may concern,a
Be it known that I, HENRY M. STODDARD, a citizen of the United States, residing at Denver, in the county of Arapahoe and State of Colorado, have invented new and useful Improvements in Spring-Wagons, of which the following is a specication, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings, in which similar letters refer to corresponding parts.
My improvements are in spring-wagons, and more especially four-spring wagons; and the object of my improvements is to provide a means for attaching the elliptic end springs to r 5 the axle, bolster, and body of a wagon, so that the body may be brought nearer the axles than in the old manner of attaching the elliptic springs, and also to provide a means for shortening the side springs, so'that they may be 2o capable of supporting a greater weight, thereby lessening the weight resting upon the end springs, as hereinafter more fully described.
Figure l is a front elevation of the forward spring, showing manner of attaching the same to the bolster and body, the bottom of body shown in section and springbar and front axle broken off. Fig. 2 is a side elevation of one of the side springs, showing manner of attaching sameV to the bolster, the rear axle, and 3o body of wagon. Fig. 3 is a rear elevation of the rear spring, showing manner of attaching same to rear axle and body of wagon, the bottom of body shown in section and spring-bar and rear axle broken off. Fig. 4 is an under side view of rearaxle, showing rear branching cross-plate and spring-attachments, also showin(r the rear axle reaches and side s rinesv broken off. Fig. 5 is a top View of the front spring, showing the forward-projecting portion 4o of the bolster-plate which supports the front spring, the front branching cross-plate, the side-spring attach ments, and also showing the bolster, reaches, and side springs broken off. Fig. 6 is a front edge view of either the front 4 5 or rear branching cross-plate, also showing the reaches in section. Fig. 7 is a sectional view of therear axle, spri ng, and spring-block, taken on the line x a, Fig. 3, showing the threepronged clip and the middle reach and rear 5o portion of rear branching cross-plate broken oft.
In the several views I will designate the elliptic end springs by the letterA, the springbars by A', and the bottom of body by A2.
B is the front axle, B' the bolster, and B2 the 5 5 bolster-plate provided with front projecting portion, B3.
C are the spring-blocks, and D the bolts fastening the front end spring to the portion B3 of plate B2. 6c
E is a side spring; E', the hangers; F, the forward attachmentconnecting forwardlianger E with bolster B', and G the rear attachment connecting rear hanger E' with rear axle, H.
I I are the three-pronged clips for attaching the rear end spring to axle H.
VJ is the middle reach, and J 'the side reaches.
K is the rear branching cross-plate provided wit-l1 backward projecting portion K', and L is the front branching cross-plate. 7o
In the construction of my improved springwagon the spring-bars A' are placed inside of the wagon-body and on top of the bottom thereof. The forward spring, A, is attached to that portion B of bolster-plate B2 and in front 75 of bolster B by means of bolts D. The rear spring, A, is attached to and back of rear axle,
H, and on top of the end of middle reach, J, by means of the three-pronged clips I. Springs A may also be attached in front of the bolster 8o of the wagon and in rear of and to the back axle in any other suitable manner, so as to place the end springs as near the rear and front ends of the wagon-body as possible. Side springs, E, are attached to the body in any suitable manner and to the bolster by means of hangers ,E and attachments F, and to the rear axle, I-I,
by means of hangers E' and attachments G. Attachments E are made longer than attachments G, for the purpose of placing the side 9o springs, E, as nearly under the center from end to end ofthe body as possible. Branching cross-plates K and L are supports for the attachments F and G, the upper branched portion resting across and on top of reaches J and J', and the lower branched portion extending across and underneath the same.
Having thus described my improvements, what I claim, and desire yto secure by Letters l. In a spring-wagon, the combination of bars A', secured inside of the wagon-body and on top ofthe bottom of the same and suitably l attached to springs A, the front spring A being attached to bolster B' by bolster-plate B2, and the rear spring A being attached to and in rear of the rear axle, H, by means of threepronged clips l, for the purpose set forth and described.
2. The combination, in a spring-Wagon, of bolster B', with bolster-plate B', secured to said bolster, said bolster-plate being provided with front projecting portion, B3, spring A, supported by and attached to said front projecting portion, B3, of bolster-plate B2 by means of bolts D andblock C, all substantially as set forth and described.
3. In a spring-Wagon, the combination of attachments F, secured to bolster B and attached to springs E by means of hangers E',
branched plate L, secured to and supporting said attachments F, attachments G, secured to axle H and attached to springs E by means of hangers E', branched plate K, secured to and supporting said attachment G and provided with rear projecting portion, K', reaches J and J', attached to and passing between the branches of plates L and K, spring A, axle H, block C, and three-pronged clips l, securing,` said rear projecting portion, K', of plate Kto reach J and axle H, and spring A and block C to said axle and reach, all substantially as set forth and described.
