JOSEPH AUSTIN, OF LONG BRANCH, NEYV JERSEY.
OIL-GUARD FOR SEWING-MACHINE TREADLES.
SPECIFICATION forming part 0t Letters Patent No. 395,198, dated December 25, 1888,
Application filed April 5, 1388- Serial No. 269,702. (No model.)
To all whom, it may concern.-
Be it known that I, JOSEPH AUSTIN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Long Branch, in the county of Monmouth and State of New Jersey, have invented new and useful Improvements in Oil-Guards for Sewing-Machine Treadles, of which the following is a specification.
This invention has for its objectto provide simple, inexpensive, and novel means for catching and collecting the oil dripping from the pivots of the treadle of a sewing-machine to avoid soiling the floor and carpet or other floor-coverin The object of my inventionIaccomplish in the manner and by the combination of devices hereinafter described and claimed, reference beingmade to the aecompanyin draw ings, in which Figure 1 is a verticz i-l section showing part of the treadle-shaft and its connections with my invention combined therewith. Fig. 2 is a detail perspective of the drip-trough detached.
In the said drawings the referencc-uumeral 1 denotes the treadle of any known form of sewing-machine, that shown being of the Singer type, although my invention is by no means limited in its application to this or any other specified construction. The numeral. 2 designates the treadle bearings, and 3 denotes the pitman, which is connected in any usual manner to a toe or bracket, 4, on the treadle.
Arranged beneath the treadle is a drip trough, 5, composed of a narrow metallic receptacle having its ends (5 inclined upward and outwardly, flanges 7 being formed continuously upon the body portion 5, as well as upon the inclined ends (3. v
To detachably suspend the trough from the machine-frame 10, I 'provide the following simple and economical means: Each of the bent ends 6 is provided nearits upper end with a transverse wire, 8, secured in the flanges of such bent end, and the suspension-wires 9 are each bent to form a curved portion and two arms having hooked extremities detachably hooked into engagement with the transverse wires 8. The suspensionwires are adapted to straddle bearings which. connect the lateral braces'with the machine-frame10.
I purpose arranging a drip-cup, 19, beneath the point where the lower end of the pitman 3 connects with the toe or bracket 4 on the treadle to catch the oil-dii-ippings at this point.
The devices shown constitute an extremely simple, cheap, effective, readily-detachable, and convenient drip-vessel capable of attachment to machines of-any pattern.
Prior to my invention drip-troughs have been suspended beneath treadles, and such, therefore, I do not broadly claim, my invention residing in the novel construction of the trough and the described devices for suspending the same from the machine-frame.
\Vhat I claim is-- The combination, in a drip-guard for pivots ot' a treadle, of a drip-trough comprising the horizontal portion having bent ends, said portion and ends having opposite side flanges, a transverse wire secured to the side flanges of each bent end, and the suspension-wires each provided with a curved portion extending into two arms having hooked extremities engaging the said transverse wires, substantially as shown and described.
In testimony whereof I allix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
JOSEPH AUSTIN.
