S. AUSTIN. GAR AXLE LUBRIGATOR.

CAR-AXLE LUBIRICATOR. 5
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 601,867, dated April 5, 1898. Application filed April 8, 1897. Serial No. 631,244. (No model.)
T0 00% whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, STEWART AUSTIN, a citizen of Canada, residing at Walkerville,county of Essex, Province of Ontario, Canada, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Oar-Axle Lubricators; and I 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 pertains to make and-use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification.
This invention relates to journal-lubrica- .tors of that class in which a wick or pad the on which the pad is supported. Fig. 2 shows it generally occupies.
the pad. For purposes of better illustration itis shown as inverted from the position which Fig. 3 is a cross-section of the pad and spring-support and shows the pad located on the support and in a box such as that which is used under the journal of the driving-wheel. Fig. 4 is a longitudinal section indicating the position of the lubricating-pad under the journal of an ordinary car-axle.
The spring-support consists of two parallel bars 1 and 2, riveted or otherwise secured to curved cross-bars, the curvature of which is substantially like that of the journal with which the structure is to be used. Each of the cross-bars 3 4 projects at the sides beyond the parallel bars 1 2, and its'ends are bent downward and then inward, and they project toward each other, but are free. Such a structure made of moderately strong material, such as brass or steel, serves to hold thebars 1 and 2 up snugly under the pad which is above them and to hold the pad against the under.
side of the journal. The ends of the parallel bars 1 and 2 are bent downward and coact with the downward-bent parts of the crossbars 3 and 4 as a support forthe vertical end wick hereinafter described.
The wick or pad is made of any suitable material, such as felting or wicking, in four parts and presents six downwardly-extendin g wicks, each of which is adapted to draw the oil up by capillary attraction from that below to its place ofuse against the under side of the journal. The two longitudinal portions of the wick, a and b, are each provided with two downwardly-extending flaps a a 6 b Of these, the two adjacent flaps b I) extend closely together along the middle line, and the tabular or body parts a and b are joined together by sewing or any other suitable way along those portions which lie at either end beyond the downwarddropping flaps b and b. Across each end and secured to it by stitching is a downwardly-extending crossflap c c, which serves not only to lift the oil by capillary attraction, but also serves as an apron or guard at the ends of the box,cspecially that one of them which is at the front end of the box, to prevent the dirt (which always gathers in such a box) from passing to the rear of it. The apron c in the position shown in Fig. 4 serves to prevent dirt and dust entering through the door A and passing-back beyond itself, and it is possible at intervals to clean out any accumulation of apron c, and thus prevent it from accumulatin g in the bottom of the oil-tank into which the flaps of the lubricator dip The downturned sides 1 and 2 of the horizontal framebars 1 and 2 coact with the downturned ends 3 3 4. 4 to hold this curtain c in place.
What I claim is- 1. In. a lubricator for caraxle journals, in combination with a spring-supporting frame, a pad having downturned side flaps, and the adjacent downturned middle flaps, a surface extending entirely across the box'under the journal and a downturnedend flap extending across the box as described.
2. In a car-axle journal, in combination with a supporting spring-frame, a pad provided with downturned side flaps, the downturned middle flaps and the downturned end hanging vertica11y,substantially as described.
flaps, substantially as described. In testimony whereof I sign this specifica- 1o 3. In a car-axle lubricator, in combination tion in the presence of two Witnesses.

Vided with downturned side and middle flaps, G. I. LEGGATT,
and an end flap extending across the box and VIRGINIA M. OLOUGH.
