SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 744,551, dated. November 17, 1903.
Application iiled April 1,*11903.
sion of the power from thevpiston to the frontv and rear driving-wheels 'and to avoid overheating of the pivotal connection between the main rod and the parallel rod.
The invention consists of novel features -and parts and combinations of the same, as
will be more fully described hereinafter and .then pointed out in the claim.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawing, forming a part of this specification, in which the figure is a side elevation of the improvement as applied.
The parallel or side rod A on each side of -a locomotive is connected with the wrist-pins B and B' of front and rear driving-Wheels C and C', and the said parallel rod A is provided with a forward extension A', connected by a knuckle-pin D with the rear endof vthe main rod E of the locomotive-engine, the inner end of the vpin D beingont of the path of the crank. Now by the arrangement de- Serial No. 150,549. (No model.)
wrist-pins B and B'f, as the said main rod has a connection with the parallel rod forward of the wrist-pin B, and consequently the front and rear driving-wheels C and C are rotated without danger of overheating of the pivotal connection between the main rod E and the v*parallel or side rod A. The side rod A is greatly strengthened to safely stand the strain incident tothe application ofthe power applied at the extensionA.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- A locomotive having a parallel or side rod engaging Wrist-pins on the front and rear driving-wheels, the said parallel or side rod being provided with an extension forward of the wrist-pin of the front driving-wheel, and a main rod pivotally connected at its rear end directly to the extension of the parallel or side rod, asset forth.
-In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
