UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
DANIEL O. CARD, OF RAWSONVILLE, OHIO.
IMPROVEMENT IN BENT KNEE AND BEAM FOR SLEIGHS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 70,408, dated November 5, 1867.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, DANIEL O. CARD, of Rawsonville, county of Lorain, in the State of Ohio, have invented a new arid 1m proved Bent Knee and Beam for Gutters and Sleighs or 'Sleds; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon.
Figure 1 is a perspective View.
A represents a bent piece of wood; B, a cross-piece or part of the beam. 0 C are braces. D D are braces and supports for the fenders.
The nature of this improvement consists in forming the beam and knee of the running part of a cutter or sleigh by bending the wood in the form seen at A, Fig. 1, the same being braced to strengthen and support it in the usual manner of those in use.
To enable others to fully understand my invention, I will describe its construction and practical advantages.
I take a piece of wood, A, of any desired form and shape for making the said beam and knee, and by the process employed for building material in the manufacture of carriages, sleighs, 850., I bend it in the form of a letter U inverted, as seen in the accompanying drawing. Next 1 take a straight piece of wood or other suitable material, B, which I attach to the beam A, the ends projecting beyond the bend or knee to a sufficient distance, and upon the ends I) of which may be secured the fenders. The ends I) I) are supported by a brace, O, of any convenient form. I also support the knees to by braces D D, to strengthen them, thus forming a substantial beam and knee for the manufacture of sleighs and similar vehicles.
The advantages derived from this mode of construction are economy of labor and durability, combining strength and simplicity.
It will be seen by bending the material a substantial beam and knee may be made from one piece of Wood, requiring no mortise nor tenon, which soon becomes loose or Worn, but retains the full strength of the material used. They may be manufactured and supplied for the market much cheaper, and of any variety of sizes and styles, like other portions of bent material for similar articles in this branch of industry.
Having thus described my invention, What I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
The herein-described bent knee and beam, as a new article of manufacture.
DANIEL O. CARD.
