Wham @fl FRANCIS FOWLER, oF WEST HAVEN, CONNECTICUT.
Letters Patent No. 76,906, dated April 21, 1868:
IMPROVEMENT IN CONVERTIBLE CARRIAGE-POLES.
dlgtgttthule mate it in that gtstttrs haunt in making wt at the stain.
Be it known that I, FRANCIS FOWLER, of West Haven, in thecounty of. New Haven, and State of Oonnecticut, have invented a new and improved Mode for Convertible Carriage-Poles, for adapting poles made for any carriage to any other carriage of different construction; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full,-
clear, and exact description of the construction and operation of the same,'reference being had to the annexed drawings, making a part of this specification, in which-- i Figure l is a plain view of the pole and shifting-gear, and
Figure 2 is a side view. of the shifting or converting-rods.
A A, fig. 1, is the cross-bar of the pole, made of iron or other metal, to which the pole B B is attached by a metallic clasp or socket, b b, which is a part of the cross-bar. O G are braces, attached by bolts to the ends of the cross-bar and to the pole B B. D D are the shifting-rods, having a square opening or eye through the head a a, through which the cross-bar A A passes, and an eye through the base a a, through which the shacklebolt it it of the axle-tree passes, and attaches the pole to the axle-tree of the carriage, both of which holes are shown atd and h in fig. 2, which figure gives a side view of the'shiftingwods. g is a thumb-screw,for fastening the rod when in place. The metallic cross-bar is made square, or other shape, adapted to the eye-holes in the head of the shifting-rods, for such length as is necessary, for extending or contracting the distance between the shifting-rods, so as to make the distance between the shifting-rods conform to the distance between the shackles on any carriage axle-tree, the shifting-rods sliding along easily on the cross bar, through a space of as many inches as is desired, thus converting the Pole made for-any one carriage into one equally adapted to any other carriage. v
The manufacturer of the pole puts the'shifting-rocls D D in place on the cross-barA A, which passes through the eyes a a, where they are made'fast, or loosened, by means of the thumb-screws g. When the thumb-screws are loosened, the shifting-rods are eas'ilyslid along the cross bars, either way,-until they are at the same distance apart'as the shackles on the axle-tree of the carriage are, and then the shackle-bolts it h are readily passed through'the eyes h k and made fast, and the attachment is completed. I
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is'- The attachment of removable poles by means of the shifting-rods D D, which slide either way along the metallic cross-bar A A.
