WILLIAM JAMES LANE AND GEORGE LANE, OF POUGHKEEPSIE, NEW YORK.
BAND-BRAKE.
SPECIFICATION formingpart of Letters Eate'nt No. 690,370, dated December 31, 1901.
Application filed April 25 1901- To a whom it may concern:
Be it known that We,WILLIAM JAMES LANE and GEORGE LANE, citizens of the United States, residing at Poughkeepsie, county of Dutchess, State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Band-Brakes,of which the following is a specification.
Our invention relates to band-brakes of the type intended to be employed with motor-vehicles.
The majority of band-brakes are so arranged relative to the band-wheel,which they surround, that they are only capable of applying friction when the band-wheel is moving forward. v
Our improved band-brake is designed to be capable of applying friction whether the bandwheel be moving forward or backward.
The accompanying drawings will serve to illustrate our invention, in which Figure 1 is a side elevation showing the band-brake applied to a band-wheel mounted in a frame of a motor-vehicle, the transverse brace and axle of the vehicle-frame being shown in section. Fig. 2 is a plan view.
In the drawings, 5 represents the vehicleframe. Mounted upon the axle 6 is a bandwheel 7, which in the present case forms a part of a compensating gear, as is usual with motor-vehicles. Surrounding the band-wheel is the band-brake 8. Extending from the lower end of the band-brake 8 and suitably secured to it by rivets or other means is a metallic strap 9, which is secured at 10 to a transverse portion of the vehicle-frame. The upper end 11 of the band-brake is pivoted to a lever 12, mounted on a transverse rod 13, and the lower end 14: of the band-brake is pivotally secured on the rod 13. The rod 13 is mounted in the bearing 15in the frame 5.
16 represents a lever on the outer end of the rod 13, and connected to this lever is a rod 17, which leads to any conveniently-located lever under the control of the operator of the vehicle.
The operation of the device is as follows:
Serial No. 57,496. (No model.)
When traction is made in aforward direction upon the rods 17, the levers 16 and 12 will be moved forward, thus causing the ends 11 and 14 of the band-brake to approach each other, thereby tightening the band-brake upon the band-wheel 7.
It will be observed that the friction of the band-brake upon the band -wheel will be equally applied over all that portion of the band-wheel included within the band, and hence friction upon the band=wheel will be exerted irrespective of the direction of motion of the band-wheel.
Having thus described our invention, we claim-,
1. In a band-brake, the combination of a band-wheel, a brake-band surrounding the wheel, a strap connecting the brake-band to a fixed support, a transverse rod havingalever end, one end of said brake-band pivoted to said lever, and its opposite end pivoted on said transverse rod.
2. In a brake-band, the combination of a band-wheel, a brake-band surrounding the wheel, a strap connecting the brake-band to a fixed support, a transverse rod having alever at each end, one end of said brake-band pivoted to the upper end of the inner lever and its opposite end pivoted to said transverse rod near the inner lever.
3. In a brake-band, the combination of a vehicle-frame, a band-wheel, a brake-band surrounding the wheel, a strap connecting the brake-band to the vehicle-frame, a transverse rod having its bearing in the vehicle-frame, and provided with levers on its opposite end, one end of said brake-band pivoted to the upper end of the inner lever and the opposite end of the band pivoted on said transverse rod.
In testimony whereof we affix our signatures in the presence of two witnesses.
WILLIAM JAMES LANE. GEORGE LANE. Witnesses:
