"FRANKLIN G. TALLERDAY, OF POPLAR GROVE, ILLINOIS, ASSIGNOR OF ONE- FOURTH T LUCY LE DUO, or TRYON CITY, NORTH CAROLINA.
Tl-llLL -CO UPLING.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 455,806, dated July 14, 1891.' Application filed October 23, 1890. Serial No. 369,074. (No model.)
and useful Improvements in Thill-Couplings,
of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improved means of coupling t-hills to vehicles; and it consists of certain new and useful features of construction and combinations of parts, hereinafter described, and pointed out in the claim.
Referring to the accompanying drawings,
which form a part of this specification, Figure 1 is a View in isometric of the disconnected parts of a thill-coupling embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is a side view of the same operatively connected together.
Like letters of reference indicate corresponding parts throughout the several views.
A is a draw'shackle, having a transverse pintle-bearing A therein and a key-seat A narrowest at the top thereof and opening into the pintle-bearing A.
B is a key adapted to be slid into the keyseat A3.
B is a spring connected with the key B in any suitable manner.
0 is a shaft-eye, provided with a couplingpintle 0, adapted to engage with and be disengaged from the pintle-bearing A through the open key-seat A and having the jaws 0 inserting the ends thereof through the holes A therein.
The shaft-eye O is shown in solid lines in Fig. 2 in the only position at which the keyB can be inserted into and Withdrawn from its seat A in the draw-shackle. The dotted lines 5 in the same figure indicate the normal position of the shaft-eye 0 when in use.
The sole office of the spring B is to prevent the thill-couplingfrom rattling,- and it may be used or not, as desired.
I Claim 7 The combination of the shackle A, having a partially-circular recess A opening into a key-seat A and the shaft 0, provided with the pintle O and the rearwardly-extending jaws G with the key B, reduced in size at the center and provided with a spring 13' around said reduced center, all substantially as shown and described.
