THOMAS J. REID, OF CINCINNATI, OHIO.
HUB-BAND.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 429,479, dated June 3, 1890.
Application filed January 9, 1890. Serial No. 336,364. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern: l
Be it known that I, THOMAS J. REID,-a citizen of the United States of America, residing at Cincinnati, in the county of I-Iamilton and State of Ohio, at present residing in Gananoque, Ontario, Canada, have inventedv certain new and useful Improvements in Ornamental Hub-Bands; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to letters of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
My invention relates to improvements in point-bands for vehicle-hubs.
The object of the invention is to provide a specially-constructed point-band which is adapted to be incased by an exterior covering and lining of superior and ornamental metal; and it consists in providing a hub with a point-band of malleable metal which is provided on its interior with a portion of increased thiekness,so that said point-band beyond the end of the hub will have a portion of increased thickness from which the interior band tapers both ways, this band also being adapted to be expanded at the outer end, whereby a covering and lining can be securely attached and held rigidly upon the point-band, as will be hereinafter fully set forth and particularly claimed. 1
' In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a sectional view of the front hub-band,show ing the point-band made integral therewith, the ornamental covering-plate being shown simply placed upon the point-band before said covering-plate is secured in position. Fig. 2 is also a-sectional view of a diiferent style of band. Fig. 3 is a sectional view of an ordinary point-band, showing my improvement applied thereto. Fig. 4 is a sectional view of the finished article. Fig. 5 is a view of a modification.
A refers to the front shell of a hub, which is preferably made of malleable iron, the point-band being formed integral therewith. The hub is secured within the shell A in the usual manner, and the point-band extends from a point, as Z, to the end thereof. This point-band as iirst constructed tapers slightly,
and at a point interiorly the metal is of increased thickness, from which it tapers toward each end. Instead of the point-band B being formed integral with the shell, it can be made independent thereof, as shown in the other figures of the drawings, and the inner portion need not be of increased thickness, as the same result may be secured by swaging the metal forming the point-band by means of suit-able dies and pressed.
C refers to an exterior lining, which may be made of brass, copper, silver, or other ornamental metal, which is spun up so as to taper and fit over the exterior of the pointband,while the inner covering C projects inwardly over the interior. IVhen the covering has been placed upon the pointband, as shown, the point-band, with covering and lining, is placed over suitable dies, which expand the ends c of the lining against the inner side of the point-band, while the outer ends of the point-band, lining, and exterior covering are flared or expanded to a point, as shown in dotted lines and indicated by the letters y y, thereby locking the parts securely to each other.
In the manufact-ure of such a point-band for hubs certain dies and forms are used which are not herein claimed, but form the subject-matter of an application for patent of even date herewith.'
Heretofore ornamental coverings and linings for hub-bands have been secured thereto by expanding the ornamental band upon the iron point-band and by locking the interior portion upon a bead formed interiorly with the hub-band; but I do not claim such construction as my invention, as the ornamental bands do not possess sufcient strength and rigidity to be forced over the iron band and expanded, and when such operation is attempted the ornamental coverings are liable to be broken, thereby ent-ailing loss upon the manufacturer, whereas with my improvement the rigid iron band serves to re-enforce the weaker ornamental covering when expanded therein.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
l. The combination, with the malleable or expansible hub-band for the ends of vehicle- IOO hubs, of a covering and lining therefor in a single piece, bent as shown, the parts being secured to each other by the oonjointly tiered outer portion of the hub-band, lining, and exterior covering, substantially as set forth.
2. The conibinatioinwith alnalleable or expansible hub-band, of zi coveringand lining therefor in a single piece, the parts being secured together by the conjointly expanded outer portion of the hub-band and of the linlng, substantially as set forth.
3. The combination, with t malleable hubband having a central portion of increased thickness provided with oppositely-extended inclined faces, of a covering and lining made in a. single piece, theparts being secured t0- gether by the lining being in intimate relation with said inclined faces and conjointly expanded lining and hub-band, substantially as set forth.
In testimony whereof I ztiix mysgnztt'ure in presence of two Witnesses.
