BOLSTBR SPRING.
Patented Mar. 6, 1888.
UNITED STATES PATENT OEEICE.
SAMUEL S. BYERS, OF DARWIN, KANSAS.
BOLSTER-SPRING.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 379,097, dated March 6, 1888.
Application led November 12, 1887. Serial No. 254,958.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, SAMUEL S. BYEEs, a citizen of the United States, residing at Darwin,7 in the county of Doniphan and State of Kansas, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Bolster-Springs; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the annexed drawings, making a part of this specieation, and to the letters and figures of reference marked thereon.
This invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in vehicle-springs, and has for its object to simplify and cheapen and to increase the efciency and durability of the same; and the invention consistsin the peculiar combinations and the novel construction, arrangement, and adaptation of parts, all as more fullyhereinafterdescribed, shown in the drawings, and then specifically defined by the claim.
In theV accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification, Figure 1 is a side elevation of my improved spring. Fig. 2 is a y bottom plan, and Fig. 3 is an end view thereof.
Referring to the drawings by letter, A designates an aXle,and Bleaf springs, which may be of any suitable material. Each of these springs has secured to it near its center a block, G, slightly curved upon its under face, as shown, to correspond with the curvature of the spring. B' is a cross-plate resting on said blocks, and on which the wagon bed isdesigned to rest. This plate is secured in posi- (No model.)
tion by means of the clips a, which serve also to retain the blocks C in position. Fach of these clips embraces a spring B and a block C. One leg of the clip passes down one side of the plate B,and the other leg passes through a hole in the plate, and the two ends of the clip pass through holes in the plate b and are provided with adjusting-nuts c. The ends ofthe plate B are notched, as shown at D, to receive the standards ofthe bolster to steady the spring and retain the parts in place.
The ends of the springs B are provided with eyes e, in which are pivoted the hangers E, to which are attached the short transverse plates F, formed on their n nder side with ears or lugsf, designed to embrace the axle or bolster, as shown. These two transverse plates are connected by the rod G, which serves to keep them the proper distance apart.
What I claim as new is- The combination, with the leafsprings, of hangers pivotally secured to said leaf springs, transverse plates pivoted to said hangers, and formed with lugsf, and the rod G,connecting said transverse plates, substantially as described.
In testimony that I claim the above I have hereunto subscribed my name in the presence of two witnesses.
SAMUEL S. BYERS.
