NITED STATES GEORGE F. POTTLE, OF MEDFORD, MASSACHUSETTS.
ALLOY OF COPPER,
NICKEL, AND LEAD.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 390,251, dated October 2, 188 8.
Application filed July 2, 1887. Serial No. 243.208. (Specimens) To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE F. PoTTLE, of Medford, in the county of Middlesex and State of Massachusetts,a citizen of the United States,
ments in'Alloys of Copper, Nickel, and Lead, of which the following is a specification.
My present improvement relates to an improved compound metal or alloy which is facing or bearing -surfaces of journal-boxes and steam or water gates and the sabots 0f projectiles when these articles are made by iirst castingthe bearing-facein a suitable mold,
bearing-face the rest or backing of the article, which is made of asuitable cheap metal, pref erably ordinary cast-iron. This latter metal may be caused to unite or weld with the facinto a suitable mold in which the facing-piece has already been placed. The capacity which my improved alloy or composition metal has of thus being united or joined with the backoue of its most desirable features.
To form my improved alloy or composition I take six parts, by weight, of commercial copper to onepart, by weight, of commercial These may be melted together in any suitable manner; but I prefer to firstnielt the nickel in a crucible, and then to add the desired amount of copper, the heat of the molten nickel being sufficient to fuse and unite the two. To the molten copper and nickel I add one-half a pound of commercial lead, this being added when the mass of copper and nickel has cooled sufficiently not to volatilize the lead.
I do not claim to be the first to form a composition metal in which copper, nickel, and lead enter as ingredients. The novelty of my present invention and its value for the uses hereinbefore set forth lie in the peculiar qualities and advantages found in a metal containing the ingredients in substantially the proportions stated, which composition or combination of ingredients I believe to be new with myself, as well as particularly adapted for the purposes set forth.
While the proportions given above are pre cisely those which I have found to be adapted to give the best results, I have also discovered that a slight variation in the proportions may be made without affecting the quality of the alloy, as set forth.
I claim- The herein-described composition or alloy of copper, nickel, and lead, in the proportion of six parts, one part, and one-half a part,by weight, respectively. i
In testimony whereof I have hereunto subscribed my name this th day of June, A. D. 1887.
GEORGE F. POTTLE.
