H. F. MORTON, OF WEST 'SUMNER, MAINE.
Letters Patent No. 68,226, dated August 27, 1867.
IMPROVEMENT IN SLEIGH-BRAKES.
TO ALL WHOM I'l MAY CONCERN: 1
Be it known that I, H. F. MORTON, of West Sumner, iu the county of Oxford, and State of Maine, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Childrens `Sleds; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description theref, which will enable others skilled in thevart to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specivcation.
This invention relates to an apparatus for steering childrens sleds instead of guiding them, as now, by the feet, and consists of a guide mounted upon a bent or curved spring, secured to the framework on each side 'of the sled, by pulling ou which by the right or vleft string or rein attached to it, 'the child gives the required direction to the sled. In the accompanying drawings- Figure 1 is a side view, and
Figure 2 is a top view of my improved sled.
Similar letters of reference indicate like parts.
A A isthe framework of the sled; B, the seat; C, a curved spring, having one end secured to the frame.-
work at c, and having the guide D mounted upon its other extremity at d, its extremity E being kept oi the ground by the elasticity of the spring C. The guides are free nt both ends, and the lower arm is suiciently long to reach the ground when drawn towards a vertical direction; it isalso sharpened oi at E, and a string` or rein being attached to the upper end F, (to which also the strings 'for drawing the sled may be attuehed,) the child seated'in B can guide the sled to the right or left by pulling on the right or left string, when the end E of the guide acted upon will strike against the snow or ice and cause the sled to turn round.
I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent-V The guides D, mounted upon a sp1-ing on either side of the sled, having both ends frepg'the lower arm being sufliciently long to reach the ground, and kept off it by the elasticity of a spring, C, substantially as shown and described. I
H. F. MORTON.
