- BRAKE.
APPLICATION FILED APR-12.1906.
" III/Q,
Milne-1;
PETER SIEBENALER, OF PALZEM, GERMANY. BRAKE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Oct. 9, 1906.
Application filed April 12, 1906. Serial No, 311,378.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, PETER SIEBENALER, a subject of the King of Prussia, German Emperor, residing at Palzem, in the Province of the Rhine, Kingdom of Prussia, German Empire, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Brakes, of which the following is a specification.
. This invention relates to novel improvements in brake mechanisms, particularly designed for use on railroad-trains.
For a full description of the invention and the merits thereof and also to acquire a knowledge of the details of construction of the means for effecting the result reference is to be had to the following description and ac: companying drawings.
Figure 1 is the diagram of a train consisting of three coupled cars. Fig. 2 is a detached sectional detail through an axle and brake-shoes attached thereto. Fig. 3 is the same detail, the different parts having another position. Fig. 4 is a plan of Fig. 2. Fig. 5 is the plan of the brake-band. Fig. 6 shows the brake-shoes.
Upon each of the axles h are mounted a pair of brake-shoes a a. The brake-band (1, having eyes cl at both ends, is preferably of steel and eflects, in combination with the said brake-shoes a, a, abraking action, as will be readily comprehended.
At the end of the trainis mounted an ordinary brake handle and shaft f. The free end of the brake-rope i is fastened to the next of the brake-bands b, and all brake-bands are connected one with the other by rods 7c. At the head of the train a hook d is provided, to which the next of the rods 7c is secured.
Now the essential feature of the invention consists in the particular arrangement of the brake-bands in such a manner that at the last car the ends of the brake-bands have their position below the axles, While at the other cars they are situated above the axles. It will be seen that on tightening the brakerope i the brake-shoes of the last car will revolve in such a way that the other brake shoes revolve, in a sense, opposite to that of the rotating axles. The invention thus greatly increases the efficiency and power of the brakes.
Havin thus described the invention, what is'claime as new is 1. A brake mechanism, comprising a plurality of brake-bands part of which bands have their ends above and part under or below the axles of the cars.
2. A brake mechanism comprising a plurality of brake-b ands and brake-shoes mounted on the axles of the cars, part of the bands having their. ends above and part under or below the axles of the cars.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
PETER SIEBENALER.
