WHEEL- -FASTENER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 691,099, dated January 14, 1902. Application filed August 15, 1901. Serial No. 72,135. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, AUREN M. BEEBE, a oiti zen of the United States, and a resident of Banner, in the county of Fulton and State of Illinois, have invented a new and Improved Wheel-Fastener, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
This invention relates to improvements in devices for securing a vehicle-wheel to its axle; and the object is to provide a simple device by means of which a Wheel may be quickly fastened to its axle or released therefrom and obviating the use of the usual nuts, that are liable tobecome loose and sometimes lost.
I will describe a wheel-fastener embodying my invention, and then point out the novel features inthe appended claims.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figures.
Figure l is an end View showing a device embodying my invention for securing the wheel-hub to its axle. Fig. 2 is a section on the line 2 2 of Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a section on the line 3 3 of Fig. 1, and Fig. 4 is a section on the line 4 4 of Fig. 3.
Referring to the drawings, 5 designates the vehicle-wheel hub, 6 the box therein, and 7 the axle-spindle. At its end the spindle 7 is provided with an annular channel 8, and
this channeled portion projects beyond the front end of the hub proper,'as clearly shown in Fig. 2. A plate 9 is arranged in the hub forward of the end of the spindle. Arranged between the end of the hub and the plate 9 are the fastening devices, consisting, as here shown, of segmental plates 10 11, pivoted together at one side and to the hub, as indicated at 12. The locking-plates are guided in their inner and outer movements by means of bolts 13, which pass through slots let in the plates and engage in the end of the hub. From the free ends of the lockin gplates links and 16 extend, and the opposite ends of these links are pivoted to a crank-link 17, mounted to swing between the end of the hub and the plate 9. As here shown, this crank at its upper end has a portion 18, extended into an opening in the hub, and a portion 19, which extends outward through the plate 9 and through the upper portion of a boxing 20, arranged on the front face of the plate 9. The portion 19 of the crank which extends through the boxing 20 is designed to be en gaged by a key or other device for turning it. I have here shown it as made angular, so as to be engaged by means of a key similar to that of a clock-winding key. 7
To prevent an accidental releasing of the locking-plates from the spindle, I provide a locking device for the crank. This locking device consists of a block 21, mounted to slide in the boxing 20, and on the upper end of this block is a web 22, designed to engage in a channel 23, formed in the under side of. the portion 19 of the crank-link. The outer end of the web 22, it will be seen, is curved downward and outward, so that when a key is forced upon the extension or portion 19 the locking device will be moved downward against the resistance of a spring 24, which atits lower end bears against the lower Wall of the boxing 20 and atits upper end against the block 21, the said block being provided with a stem portion which passes into the spring.
In operation, when the locking devices are in looking positionthe parts will be in the position indicated in full lines in Fig. 1. Should it be desired to remove the wheel, the key is to be engaged with the portion 19 0f the crank. Then by turning the crank the links 15 and 16 will be moved inward, and consequently move the plates 10 and 11 out of the channel 8, the position of the parts at this time being indicated by the dotted lines in Fig. 1. After thus releasing the wheel it is evident that it may be drawn off the spindle.
With a fastening device embodying my invention it is obvious that there are no parts that are liable to become detached and. lost, and, further, the plate 9 will prevent the entrance of dirt and dust, and thus the life of the spindle will be greatly prolonged as compared with a spindle in the oil of which it is possible for sand or grit to accumulate.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- 1. In a wheel-fastener, an axle or spindle having an annular channel at its end, segmental locking-plates pivotally connected to the wheel-hub and adapted to engage in said channel, links extended from the free ends of the plates, and a crank with which the links connect, substantially as specified.
2. A locking device for a vehicle wheel, comprising a spindle having an annular channel formed at its end, segmentallocking-plates pivotally connected together and to the wheelhub, said plates being adapted to engage in the channel, links extended from the free ends of the plates, a cranklink with which said links connect, the said crank-link being adapted to receive a turning-tool, and means for locking said crank-link, substantiallyas specified.
3. A fastener for a vehicle-wheel, comprising a spindle having an annular channel at its end, a plate attached to the wheel-hub and spaced from the end of said hub, segmental locking-plates mounted to swing between the ends of the hub and said plate, the said locking-plates being adapted to engage in said channel, links extended from the free ends of the locking-plates, a crank-link with which the first-named links connect, said crank-link having a portion bearing in the end of the wheel-hub and a portion extended out through the plate and adapted to be engaged by a key, and a spring-pressed locking device for engaging with said portion extended through the plate, substantially as specified.
4. A fastening device for a wheel, comprising a spindle having an annular channel formed at its end, segmental locking-plates mounted to swing on the end of the hub, guidebolts for said locking-plates, links pivoted to the free ends of the locking-plates, a cranklink with which said first-named links connect, the said crank-linkhaving a portion extended outward and adapted to be engaged by a turning-key, said portion being provided with a channel, and a spring-pressed locking device adapted to engage in said channel, substantially as specified.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
AUREN M. BEEBE.
