HUB-BAND CAP.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 728,988, dated May 26, 1903. Application filed JanuaryllvlQOZ. Renewed Ootoher 25, 1-902. Serial No. 128,825. (No model.)
To a/ZZ whom t may concern:
Be it known that I, XVILLIAMA. SCHLEI- CHER, of Cleveland, Cuyahoga county, Ohio, have invented a new and useful Hub-Band Cap, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, in which Figure 1 is a side elevation of a hub-band provided with my improved device, partly in central section, showing the cap in looked position. Fig. 2 is a cross-section on the line II II of Fig. l looking outwardly. Fig. 3 is a rear elevation of the hub-band, showing the interior of the cap, the parts of the latter being in position to be removed. Fig. 4 is a side elevation of the cap. Fig. 5 is a vertical central section of the end of the hub-band.
ln the drawings, 2 represents the hub-band.
3 is the cap, which fits the end of the band. The cap is provided with locking-dogs 4 4, set in radial ways or guides 5 5 on the inner side of the cap and having locking ends or tongues 6 6, which project through flanges 7 7 on the caps periphery. These flanges act as guides and also limit the outward motion of the dogs. The dogs are pressed outwardly by spring-pressure, and I use, preferably', a leaf-spring 8, bent into circular form and bearing on the inner sides of the dogs. The dogs are preferably of L form and have lips 9, which confine the spring in place.
The hub-band 2 has an interior Flange l0, beveled outwardly and having locking-shoulders ll, which terminate at one or both ends in lateral inclined surfaces l2, though bybeveling the ends of the tongues 6 these surfaces 12 may be dispensed with.
To apply the cap to the band, the cap is placed upon the end of the latter and forced inwardly. The beveled flange 9, bearing upon the ends of the dogs, presses the dogs back, and the cap is then turned until the ends of the dogs spring into the spaces back of the shoulders ll, which hold the cap in place, Figs. l and 2. To remove the cap, it is turned in the direction of the arrow in Fig. 2, whereupon the ends of the dogs riding upon the inclined surfaces l2 will be pressed back, and the cap can be drawn outwardly.
Among the advantages of my device are that it is cheap and easy to assemble, and in use its parts are firm and substantial and well guided, not apt to bind or to get out of order. The cap and the dogs are preferably cast, and the device when so made is very cheap.
Within the scope of my invention the parts of the device may be modified. For example, the shape of the dogs and the shape and arrangement of the spring may be changed, since What I claim isl. A closure for annular bands, consisting of a cap having dogs slidingly mounted on the cap, and an outwardly-pressing spring; substantially as described.
2. A closure for annular bands, consisting of a cap having spring-pressed dogs slidingly mounted on the cap, and a liange on the cap through which the dogs project; substantially as described. l
3. A closure for annular bands, consisting of a cap having spring-pressed dogs slidingly mounted in radial guides on the cap; substantially as described.
4. A closure for annular bands, consisting of a cap having spring-pressed dogs slidingly mounted on the cap, said dogs being of L shape; substantially as described.
5. A closure for annular bands, consisting of a cap having spring-pressed dogs slidingly mounted on the cap, said dogs being of L shape, and a flange through which projec tions on the dogs extend; substantially as described.
6. A closure for annular bands, consisting of' a cap having spring-pressed dogs slidingly mounted on the cap, and a circular spring which bears upon the dogs; substantially as described.
7. A closure for annular bands, consisting of a cap having spring-pressed dogs slidingly mounted on the cap, a flange through which the dogs project, and a circular spring which bears upon the dogs; substantially as described.
8. A-closure for annular bands, consisting of a cap having spring-pressed dogs slidingly mounted in guides on the cap; substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand.
