WAGON.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 485,292, dated November 1, 1892.
Application filed June 25, 1892- Serial No. 438,009. (No model.)
.To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, THEODORE B.l\1OSES, J r., a citizen of the United States, residing at Boston, in the county of Suffolk and Stateof Massachusetts, have invented a new and useful Improvement in W'agous, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to an improvement in the forward part of a wagon, known as the foot-board, and to its connection with other gear in the forward part of said wagon.
The object of my improvement is to shorten the distance between the axle-bed and horse, thereby reducing the draft of the wagon, and also to use or adapt in connection therewith any of the well-known half-springs or other gear to insure a complete cut-under arrangement, doing away with fifth-wheel, platform, perch, &c., in common use. I obtain these objects by the devices shown in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is a longitudinal section through the forward part of a wagon; Fig. 2, a plan View of under side of wagon-body, the halfsprings being removed. Fig. 3 is a front view of wagon.
A represents the body of the wagon, into the frame of which is mortised the foot-board B. This foot-board is made extra wide and strong, being two or three times the width of the ordinary board. Its thickness may be that of the framing of the wagon-body, as its object is not only to serve as a step and foot-board for the driver, but as asupport for the wagon and load, which rests upon the springs O O.
Across this foot-board upon the under side are bolted the iron plates 0 0, giving additional rigidity to said piece. Upon the plates 0 c at or near their forward extremities are the clips 0 0, through which the forward ends of the half-springs G C are free to move. 0 O are hinged to the clips 0 0 the latter be ing bolted to the frame CL of the wagon-body.
The rocker-bed D has its arms curved upwardly a sufficient amount to raise the body of the wagon and allow for the cutting under of the forward wheels. This rocker-bed is thoroughly strengthened by having its front, back, and edges plated with iron, as shown in the drawings. A linchpin is passed through the axle-bed E from the rocker-bed D in the usual manner.
Although I have shown my improved footboard in combination with the half-springs C THEODORE B. MOSES, JR.
