Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed June 27,1906. Serial No. 323,578.
Patented Jan. 8, 1907.
' make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings,-and to figures of reference mark-ed thereon, which form a part of this specification. I
This invention relates to a vehicle-wheel that is expected to have resiliency by means of a medium between the rim and the folly.
A novel feature is the engagement of a series of springs between the felly and the rim,
these springs having their ends arranged tangentially to the folly and the rim and the rim itself being composed of a series of bands some of which are steel and others may be made of leather or-siinilar material. This rim is made so that it can be renoved from the springs, the bands of which itis composed being fastened together.
The invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is a side view of the Wheel; and F'g. 2 is a top view, with. one edge in section, on the line 2 in Fig. 1,,
The wheel is composed of the hub 10, which can be of any construction, and the ordinary spokes 11 and a felly 12. This part of the .structure is old, and these can be made of wood or any material adapted for the purose.
Seated in a groove on the periphery of the telly 12 is a detachable band 13, that has its ends secured by means of the bolts 13*, or it can be fastened in. any other suitable manner. Projecting from this band and securely fastened theretoby means of rivets are the springs 14, one end of these springs, as 15,-
being secured to the band and the other end 16 being adapted to be engaged by the rim of the wheel. These ends 15 and 16 are concentric to the felly and the rim. The rim is made up of a series of bands concentrically arranged, and the preferred form of structure embodies the center band of steel and the outer bands of leather, although'inplace of leather I might use fiber or any other material suitable for the purpose. The rim might also be varied by making the outer bands of steel and the inner one of resilient material. This makes a rim thathas strength 'on account of the steel bands, and the pliable material gives it the necessary elasticity. These bands are held together to make the cured to the ends 16 of the springs 14 by means of the bolts 19. The rim is thus detachably arranged and when taken from the ets :18.
' Having thus I claim is 1. A wheel comprising a body portion having a felly, a band on the periphery of the telly having means for tightening it to clamp .the telly, a rim portion, and sinuous springs band, and the other on secured to the inside of the rim.
ing a felly, the felly having a peripheral tension-device between its ends for tightening it on the'felly, a rim portion, and a series of springs secured to the band, the rim being detachably'secured to the springs.
