Definitions
- My invention relates to axles for toy cars, carriages, and other veliicles, and has for its object the production of such an axle from sheet-tin or other sheet metal.
- I take a blank of such sheet metal of a length corresponding to the desired length of axle and of a width equal to the circumference of such axle. I preferably turn the edges of such blank slightly. Then I form a series of spurs a short distance from each end of the blank by puncturing the metal and allowing the side holes to protrude. Then I bend the blank into circular or tubular form, the bent edges-meeting and forming a smooth joint and the spurs forming a collar, against which the innersides of the wheels rest. Then the projecting ends of the hollow axles are swagcd, expanded, or clinched upon the wheel in any convenient manner, and the axle with its attached wheels is ready for application to a toy vehicle.

ATENT JAMES FALLOIVS, OF PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 395,219, dated December 25, 1888.
Application filed July 9, 1888- Serial No, 279,444. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that 1, JAMES FALLOWS, a citizen of the United States, residing at Philadelphia, in the county of Philadelphia and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Axles for Toy Cars, Carriages, &c.; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and ex act description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
My invention relates to axles for toy cars, carriages, and other veliicles, and has for its object the production of such an axle from sheet-tin or other sheet metal.
I take a blank of such sheet metal of a length corresponding to the desired length of axle and of a width equal to the circumference of such axle. I preferably turn the edges of such blank slightly. Then I form a series of spurs a short distance from each end of the blank by puncturing the metal and allowing the side holes to protrude. Then I bend the blank into circular or tubular form, the bent edges-meeting and forming a smooth joint and the spurs forming a collar, against which the innersides of the wheels rest. Then the projecting ends of the hollow axles are swagcd, expanded, or clinched upon the wheel in any convenient manner, and the axle with its attached wheels is ready for application to a toy vehicle.
The accompanying drawings illustrate what I consider the best means for carrying my invention into practice.
Figure I an elevation of the blank. Fig. II a section of same on line y y, Fig. I. Fig. III is an elevation of a completed axle, having one wheel set in place upon it. Fig. IV is a section of the axle on line a' a', Fig. II. Fig. V is a longitudinal section of a portion of the tubular axle and of the wheel.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figures where they occur.
A is the blank formed with the bent edges ct a and the Spurs a a.
I3 is the axle after the blank is bent into tubular form. The bent edges a a meet squarely, as shown, and the spurs a" a form collars near each end, against which the wheel rests. After the wheel B is set in place the end of the axle swaged or expanded to lock the wheel upon it, as will be seen at b in Fig.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, 1S"
An axle for toy vehicles, consisting of tubular sheet metal having spurs formed in it and swaged or expanded ends, in combination with a wheel held between the spurs and the expanded end.
In testimonywhereof I affixed my signature in presence of two witnesses.
JAMES FALLOIVS.
