IMPROVEMENT 1N AXLES lFOR VBHIGLES.
To ALL w'noM m1 MAY eoNenRN:-
Be it known that I, WILLIAM KNOCH, of Allegheny City, in the county .of Allegheny, and State of Pennsylvania, have invented anew and useful Improvement in Axlcsvfor Vehicles; and I do herehy declare that the i' i followingis a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable those skilled in theart to 'malreand use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specieation, in which- Figure 1 represents an end view of' my invention. i f
Figure 2 is a vertical longitudinal sectional view of the same.
Siniilar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts, A
This invention relates to anew manner of arranging the spindles around wagon-axles so that the hub can .i be easily` oiled, and that the spindle can be easily replaced whcndesired. I
The invention consists in fitting the spindle eccentric around. the axle so as to form a chamber above the axle, in which packing or grease is to be placed, which will, as the wheel revolves, flow through small holes provided in the under side of the spindle. i
A represents the squared end of the axle; 'B isthe metal spindle,` round, and tapering toward the front. The hole in the front endot' the spindle is in the centre of the same, while in its inner -end the hole is as far down as possible. Thus, the under side of the spindle is parallel with and close to the underside of the axle.' By a. nut, a, the spindle is fastened to the axle, as is clearly shown in lig. 2. The roomabove the axle, between the same and the spindle, is tohe lled with grease or'other lubricating-matter. b b are holes forlned in the under side of the spindle for the oil to ooze ont, and c is alhole arranged iin the inner head of the spindle'for the oil to he poured in. The hub is itted around the spindle, and is held in place by a. nut, which is fitted over a. serewthread',.d, that is provided on the front end of the'spindle, as shown in fig. 2. When the wagon stands still, its weight will rest uponthe under side ot" the hub, and the holes b b will be completely closed. 'As 'soon as the, wheels are turned there will be enough chances, during the jerks and shocks of the wagon for the oil to` llow out of the spindle and lubricate the hub. When a spindle is usedup, it canbe easily replaced.
I claim as new, and desire'to secure by Letters Patent- The tapering spindle B, constructed as described, fitting eccentrically uponthe square shank of the axle,
the hole in the front end ofsaid spindle being in its'centre, and theholo in the inner end placed near the lower edge, in suchv a manner that the under side of the axle lies parallel with the'lower perforated sideot` the spindle, and an inclined lubricating-chamber formed above the axle, as .herein described for the purpose specified.
