UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
CHARLES \V. LOOMIS, OF OTISVILLE, NEW YORK.
WAGON-BRAKE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 374,547, dated December 6, 1887.
Application filed July 26, 1887.
To aZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, CHARLES W. LooMIs, of Otisville, in the county of Orange and State of New York, have inventeda new and useful side view of a portion of awheel and its brakeblock; and Fig. 4 is a detailed view'of one of the brake-blocks,showing the spring for throwing the upper end of said block away from the wheel. i
The invention will first be described in connection with the drawings, and then pointed out in the claims.
Depending from the body A of the wagon are the hangers B B, in which is held t-heshaft 0, which carries the brake-blocks D at its outer ends. The shaft 0 is arched in the cen ter, as shown at c, which forms the main crank or lever of the brake. At its ends the shaft 0 is bent downward, as shown at c, to form the outer short cranks for applying the brakeblocks D to the wheel. shaft 0 is connected,by the rod E,the lever F, which is fulcrumed at fto the bottom of the body A. To the free end of the lever F is connected the rod G, which is bent at its forward end and passed up through the 'slot a, made in the bottom of the body A, where it is provided with the foot-piece a, by which the rod G, lever F, and the central portion of the To the center of the and the blocks D, in combination with the Serial No. 245,355. (No model.)
shown in full lines in Fig. 2 for applying the brake. The shaft 0 is stayed near its ends next to the hangers B to the axle H by the rods J J, so that nearly all of the strain is taken by the axle. The brake-blocks upon the shaft 0 are each acted upon by a spring, I), coiled about the shaft and connected to the blocks in such a manner that it normally holds the up-- per end of the block away from the wheel, as shown in Fig.3. In this manner I am enabled to make the cranks 0 very short, which correspondingly increases the power of the brake.
.journalcd in the hangers B and bent to form levers at the ends, in combination with the brake-blocks applied to the. ends of the shaft shaft 0 may be forced forward to the position and the rods E, connecting the shaft 0 ,at its journals to the axle, substantially as described. 2. The shaft 0, provided with the stops 2",
springs b and stop-pins i, substantially as and for the purposes set forth.
