AUGUST SCHUBERT, OF ONEIDA, NEW YORK.
VEHICLE-SPRING HANGER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 388.588, dated August 28, 1888.
l Application inea Mayl, rees. serial Noe-12.764. (No man.)
To all whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, AUGUST SCHUBERT, of Oneida, in the county of Madison, in the'State of New York, have invented new'and useful Improvements in VehicleSpring Hangers, of which the following, taken in connection with theaccompanying drawings, is a full, clear, and exact description.
This invention has special reference to the class of vehiclesprings designated duplex spring-gears,H and in which two cross-springs are arranged respectively at opposite sides of the axle and hung at their ends to supports projecting at right angles from the end portions of the axles, and the body of the vehicle is carried on the arching central portions of said cross-springs; and the invention consists in novel means for hanging on the axle the cross-springs arranged at opposite sides thereof, as hereinafter fully described,and specifically set forth in the claims.
In the 'annexed drawings, Figures l and 2 are side views of Vaxles with springs hung thereon by my improved hangers, and showing modifications thereof. Fig. 3 is an enenlarged detached side elevation of the hanger Fig. 4 is a vertical longitudinal central section of the same. Fig. 5 is a vertical longitudinal central section of a modification of the hanger. Fig. 6 is a detached perspective view of the hanger; and Fig. 7 is a detached perspective View of the support of thehanger on the axle.
Similar letters of reference indicate corre spending parts.
A represents the axle, and C C the crosssprings arranged at opposite sides of the axle and carrying the body of the vehicle on their arching central portionsin the usual and wellknown manner.
My invention consists, essentially, in connecting the springs to the axle by means of hangers connected transversely to the end portions of the axle and projecting at opposite sides of the axle and oscillatory in the direction of the length of the axle, and couplings connecting the springs to opposite erids of the hangers. This connection of the springs with the axle admits of several modifications, two
5o forms being illustrated in the annexed drawings. The form shown in Figs. l and 5 of the drawings consists ofa saddle, a, which is rigidly secured to the top of the end portion of the axle by clips l Z, or othersuitable and wellknown means. Said saddle `is formed with lugs a a', projecting upward from the top thereof and perforated at` right angles to the axle. cylindrical, and upon the same rides a hanger, h, which is disposed at right angles to theaxle and projects at opposite sides thereof, and is formed with a central eye, c, and eyes or perforated ears b b at its ends. This saddle is pivoted to the lugs c c by the eye c, entered between the said lugs, and a bolt, c, extending the entire length of the hanger and through the ears Z1 Z1 and eye c thereof, and through the lugs c a', and also through the eyes ff of the springs,insertcd, respectively, between the end ears, b b, and lugs a a', as illustrated in Fig. 5 of the drawings.
In order to allow the springs to distend and contract more freely, I form the hanger h with two pendant ears, b b, at each end, and connect each spring to one of said pairs of ears by inserting the eye f of the spring between the pendent ends of the ears and passing a bolt, d, through said parts, as illustrated in Figs. 3 and 4 of the drawings.
Having described my invention,what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, 1s
l. In combination with the axle and crosssprings at opposite sides thereof, saddles rigidly secured to the top of the end portions of the axle and provided with lugs perforated at right angles to the axle, hangers riding on said lugs, bolts extending completclythrongh the length of the hangers and through the aforesaid lugs, and couplings lconnecting the cross-springs to said hangers, as set forth and shown.
2. In combination with the axle and crosssprings at opposite sides thereof, the saddles a a, secured to the top ot the end portions of the axle and formed with the perforated lugs aa, and the hangers 7L 7L, riding on said lugs and each formed with the central eye, c, and pendent ears b b at its ends, the bolt c,extend ing completely through the length of the The top portions of said lugs are semihanger and through the aforesaid lugs, and bolts d d', passing through the pendent portions of the ears and connecting thereto the eyesf f of the springs, substantially as de- 5 scribed and shown.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto si gned my name, in the presence of two Witnesses, at'
Oneida, in the county of Madison, in the State of New York, this 2d day of May, 1888.
