WITNESSES UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE ALLIE It. WVELCH AND FRED STIMSON W ELUH, OF PONTIAC, MICHIGAN.
AUTOMOBILE-BODY.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Jan. 9, 1906..
Application filed May 29, 1905. Serial No. 262,781.
To all whom, it may concern.-
Be it known that we, ALLIE RAY WELCII and FRED STDISON WELon, citizens of the United States, residing at Pontiac, county of Oakland, State of Michigan, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Automobile-Bodies; and we declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it pertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification.
This invention relates to automobilebodies; and it consists in the improvements hereinafter described, and pointed out in the claims.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a plan view of an automobile-top embodying our invention. Fig. 2 is a perspective view of a portion of said top, the door being shown open. Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the detachable upper portion separate from the rest of the body. Fig. 4 is a perspective view of the lower portion of the body. Fig. 5 is a detail section on the line 5 5 of Fig. 1.
A is the lower portion of the body, and A A the floor thereof.
B is the front seat, and II the rear seat. Said seats are provided with backs and sides, and the sides of the back seat H are con tinued by doors C C to join the sides of the front seat and form a usual form of body having an inclosed space at the rear for the accommodation of passengers. The inclosure around the rear seat H extends laterally beyond the floor and box portion, and the door O C is bent inward toward its free edge, as. indicated at C at Fig. 1. Thus when the door is open the rear edge of the opening extends laterally beyond the front edge thereof. Thus the opening is more con venient to get in and out of. The edge of the door adjacent to the hinges is provided with an offset, which fits into a groove in the edge of the doorways, as indicated at I, Fig. 1, the offset on the door coming inside of a portion of the side of the doorway.
A is a supporting-ledge inside of and adj acent to the hinge edge of the doorway.
A is a supporting-ledge outside of the edge of the doorway remote from the hinges.
D is a seat secured to the door on the inside thereof.
D is a metal plate secured to the seat D and adapted to pass over and rest upon the ledge A A portion of the seat D passes over and rests upon the ledge A when the door is closed.
E E are parts of a catch for securing the door in its closed position.
The body is divisible along a line passing over the top edges of the sides of the seats. The upper portion (shown detached in Fig. 3) consists of a top F, a front glass panel F, the frame of which rests at its lower edge upon the top of the dash, the glass panel F which rises above the back of the front seat, the portion C of the door, which consists of a curved glass plate in a frame, and the inclosing sides F, with the glass F and the back, which rises above the back of the rear seat.
F indicates dowel-pins, which pass into holes in the upper edges of the seats and dash of the lower portion of the body to position the upper part.
G indicates screw-bolts passing from the top F of the upper part down through the edges of the vertical parts and having threads at their lower edges engaging screw-threaded sockets in the lower portion of the carriagebody, as indicated at G, Fig. 5.
The upper portion of the body may be secured to the lower portion, thus forming the body of an inclosed carriage, or by simply releasing the bolts G the upper portion of the body may be lifted off, leaving the body of an open carriage, as indicated in Fig. 4.
The doors are held and supported securely in place when closed by ledges A A, the overlapping projections I, and catch E E without bringing any strain upon the hinges.
What we claim is 1. An inclosed carriage body divisible along the line of the upper edges of the sides of the seats and back of the front and rear seat, substantially as shown and for the purpose described.
2. A carriage-body divisible along the line of the upper edges of the sides of the seats and back of the rear seat, and bolts extending from the top of the upper portion of the body and engaging the lower part of the body.
3. A carriage-body divisible along the line of the upper edges of the sides of the seats and back of the rear seat, and bolts extending from the top of the upper portion of the body within the wall thereof and engaging the lower part of the body.
4. A carriage-body provided with a rear inclosed portion extending laterally beyond IIO the front portion, and a door hinged to the rear portion and bending inward to meet the front portion.
5. A carriage-body provided with a rear inclosed portion extending laterally beyond the front portion, and a door hinged to the rear portion and bending inward to meet the front portion, said door being provided with an inwardly-extending seat secured thereto.
6. In a carriage-body, the combination of a doorhaving an inwardly-extending seat secured thereto, and means for securing said door when in its closed position, independent of the seat.
7. In a carriage-body, the combination of a door having an inwardly-extending seat secured thereto; a ledge upon said body, said door being provided with a portion adapted to pass over and rest upon said ledge when the door is closed.
8. In a carriage-body, the combination of a door having an inwardly extendin seat thereto, a ledge upon said body, said door being provided with a portion adapted to pass over and rest upon said ledge when the door is closed, and interlocking projections I.
9. In a carriage-body, the combination of a door having an inwardly-projecting seat, ledges A A said door being provided with portions adapted to pass over and rest upon said ledges, interlocking projections I, and means for securing said door in its closed position..
1.0. A carriage-body provided with a rear inclosed portion extending laterally beyond the front portion, a door having an inwardlyeXtending seat hinged to the rear portion and adapted to close against the forward portion In testimony whereof we sign this specification in the presence of two Witnesses.
