TO ALL WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
Be it known that I, JAooB F. MORRIS, of Lansingburg, in the county of Ren'sselaer, and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in \Vheels for Vehicles; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable others skilled in, the art to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawing, forming part of this specification, in which-- The figure is a central section of awagon-wbcel, taken longitudinally through the hub, to which my improve ment has been attached. I
My invention has 'for its object to furnish an improved means for oiling the axles of vehicles, by the use of which the vehicle may be run for weeks with one application of oil, and kept at all times. properly lubricated without the waste of oil; and it consists in the combination of an oil cup furnished with short tubes, strainer, sponge, and cap, or equivalent, with the hub and axle-box of the wheel, as hereinafter more fully described. i
A is the tire, B are the felloes, C are the spokes, and D is the hub of the wheel. E isthe axle-box, which is formed, inserted, and secured in the hub D in the ordinary manner. F isa cup or oil reservoir; which is formed of some suitable metal, and inserted in a chamber formed for its reception in the hub D. In the bottom of the cup F is formed an opening in which is secured the upper end of a short tube, G, upon the outside of the lower end of which is formed a screw-thread which is screwed into a hole formed in the box E, so that the lower end of'said tube may be flush with the inner surface of the said box, as shown in the drawing. H is a strainer placed in the lower part of the cup F, and secured to its side walls, through which the oil passes to the tube G,
and thence to the axle. I is a piece oi" sponge placed in the cup F upon the strainer II. This sponge retains the oil in the cup F, and only allows it to escape as it isjarred out by the motion of the vehicle, so that when the vehicle is standing still no oil will escape from the said cup. J is a short tube inserted in and secured to the top or cover of the cup F. This tube may project slightly into the cup F, as shown in the drawing, to guard against the oil being spattered up against the cap K, and being forced out around the screw-threads of said cap.
The upper end of the tube J may be closed by a cap, K, screwed down upon the projecting end of said tube, as shown in the drawing, or by a thumb-screw, or in any other convenient manner which will produce the desired result, viz, to close the cup securely, and not to project beyond the outer surface of the hub so far as to be in theway, or be liable to be broken off. The cup or reservoir F may be inserted in the outer or inner part of the hub E, as may be-most convenient, or one may be inserted in the outer and another in the inner part of the. hub if desired. 7 V
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent- The combination of the oil cup or reservoir F, one or more, furnished with short tubes G and J, strainer H, sponge I, and cap K or equivalent, with the hub D and axle-box E of the wheel, substantially as herein shown and described and for the purpose set forth.
The above specification of my invention signed by 'me this 30th day of November, 1866.
J. F. MORRIS.
