SLEIGH.
SPECIFICATION forming, part of Letters Patent No. 380,819, dated April 10, 1888.
(No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, NELsoN G. EEYNoLDs, of Bangor, in the county of Van Buren and State of Michigan, have invented a new and Improved Sleigh, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
This invention particularly relates to that a class of sleighs or sleds in which the runnerknees are secured to the body by a connection that will permit of an oscillation or tilt of the body upon the runners, or vice versa, the object whereof being to secure such a connection as is strong, simple, cheap, and not liable to get out of order; and it consists in the construct-ion and combination of the parts forming or employed in relation to the runner, knee, and cross-beam, all substantially as will be hereinafter described, and set forth in the claims.
Reference is to behad to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figures.
Figure l is a vertical section through the connection of a sleigh-runner to its knee. Fig. 2 is a plan view of the under side of a portion of the crossbeam with certain members of the oscillating connection secured thereto. Fig. 3 is a plan view of the runner and knee with the cross-beam and its connecting member removed. Fig. 4 is a longitudinal sectional detail view of the knee onlinew or of Fig. 3, and Fig. 5 is a cross-sectional view of the crossbeam casting on line 5 5 of Fig. 2.
Therunner A, having on its outer face the shoe B, is provided with a knee, 0, preferably formed of a metal casting comprising a base, E, astandard, F, rising therefrom, within which is a socket, a, substantially perpendicular tothe base and of a suitable depth, and preferably having downwardly-converging end walls, I), said knee-casting being provided with boltholes 0 through its base and boltholes 0 through its standard, and it is also at its top surface rabbeted, as at d, and has a transverse semicircular depression, f.
The crossbeam G is provided at its portion of engagement with the runner -knee with a casting consisting of a faceplate, K, by and through which to bolt or otherwise secure it to the beam, outwardly -projecting hangerarms L L, carrying between them a pintle or bearingshaft, M, having an outward radiallyextencledlug, N, preferably of a tapering form, and of less thickness orbody than, but of more or less a corresponding shape to, the socket a in kneecasting. There is also provided a strap or confining-plate, P, havinga transverse semicircular recess, h, and its inner face within its surrounding edge slightly projected into an outlying plane, as at cl, corresponding with the rabbet din the top of knee-casting, and said confining plate has bolt-holes m in positions coincident with the bolt-holes 0 through the knee-standard.
The knee may be fastened to the runner by the same bolts, 19 p, employed to secure the shoe thereto, which are projected through to and beyond the upper side of said knee and the confiningplate P, and there provided with a nut, n, it being of course understood that the lug N of cross-beam is to be first inserted in the socket with its bearing-pintle lying in the semicircular recesses f h of the knee and securing-plate. Thus the coupling device to form the support and connection between the cross-beam and runner, consisting of the three parts or castings, permits a partial rotation of its pintle in its bearings, a too great rotation and forward or backward tilt of the sleighbody being prevented by the abutment of the lug N against either the front or the rear wall of the knee-socket, and the strain consequent upon any forward or backward tilt of the sledbody is exerted longitudinally in relation to the knee, the extent of such knee and of the runner in such direction effectually resisting such strain, and the devices herein described are most simple, durable, easy of application, practical, and such as will in no way become inoperative in continued use.
Having thus fully described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- 1. The combination, with the knee or riser 0, having a socket, a, and transverse depressionf, of a plate having hanger-arms L, and transverse pintle or shaft M, provided with the lug N, and a confining-plate, P, substantially as and for the purpose described.
2. The combination, with the knee or riser 0, having a socket, a, and transverse semicircular depression f, of aplate having hangerarms L, carrying transverse pintle or shaft M,
5 provided with the lugN, and a confining-plate, 1?, having a transverse semicircular recess, h, substantially as and for the purpose described. 3. The combination, with the knee or riser G, having the socket a, the rabbeted outer 1o face, d, and the transverse semicircular recess f, of a plate having hanger-arms L, carrying transverse pintle or shaft M, provided with the lug N, and a confining-plate, P, having the extended face portionl and a transverse semir5 circular recess, h, all substantially as and for the purpose described.
4. In a sleigh, the combination, with the runner having a knee or riser, O, secured thereto, provided with a socket, a, and transverse depression f, of the cross-beam provided with the hanger-arms L, carrying the pintle or shaft M, provided with the lug N, and the securing-plate P, substantially as and for the purpose described.
5. In a sleigh, the combination, with the runner having a knee or riser, 0, provided with the socket a, the rabbeted outer face, d, and the transverse semicircular depression f,
of the cross-beam provided with the plate H, having hanger-arms L, carrying the transverse 3o pintle or shaft provided with the lug N, and the semicircularly-recessed confining-plate P, arranged for operation substantially as and for the purpose described.
6. In a sleigh, the combination, with the 5 runner having a knee or riser, 0, provided with the socket a, transverse depression f, and bolt-holes c0, of the crossbeam provided with the hanger -arms L, carrying the transverse pintle or shaft M, provided with the lug N, the confiningplate 1?, having bolt-holes m m, and the bolts 1) 19, passing upwardly through the sleigh shoe and runner, the standard F, and the confining-plate P, and provided with nuts n n, substantially as and for the purpose described.
