sB-onoucn, ALABAMA.

'IIMPROVED LUBRICATOR FOR JOURNALS.
The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same.
To all whom it 'may conce/ra.-
Be it known that I, C. M. RIED, of Greensborough, in the county of Hale, and in the State of Alabama, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Lubricators for Car-Axles; and I do hereby declare-that the following isa full, clear, and exact description thereof', reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon.
The nature of my invention consists in constructing a machine, which can be readily attached to the ends of ordinary car-axles, and be contained within the grease-box or housing7 applying the lubricant automatically, andjust when needed, in a quantity exactly sutcient to lubricate, thereby saving the great wasie oil that the ordinary mode of oiling entails.
In the drawings- 'Figure l is'a side elevation of the invention, one side of the grease-'box being removed, to show the Amanner of attaching and working the same.
Figure 2 is a transverse section, showing the manner of connecting the several parts of the invention.
Fig`ure 3 is an endelevation. The end of the greasebox nearest the car is taken off, to show the operation of the invention.
Figure 4 is a perspective view of the cup or dipper which applies the lubricant to the car-axle, and is showing the connection of the cup with the springarms.
To enable those vskilled in the art to make and use my invention, I will now describe its construction and operation.
A is the grease-box or housing, of a suitable shape, having one of its sides movable, so as to adjust theparts'of the invention. The lubricant is contained in the bottom of box A, in an open dish or other suitable manner. 'The grease-box is secured to bearing (t.
B is the car-axle and part to be lubricated,
bis the flange that usually' terminates the uter end of the car-axle.
' I provide a ange, C, of the size of flange b, and
sides are secured together by screws orbolts f,'inore fully shown in iig.'2.
The rock-shaft d of cog-wheel yD extends ont from secured to it, one 011 each of the extended ends.
to it at one end, and the other end of each pitman g,
make of steel. The spring-arms H are' pivoted at h on the frame E. l' Y On the opposite ends of these arms H is a dipper or cup, I, of any suitable shape, and very clearly shown in perspective at g. 4. f
A small rod, r, may be used to firmly connect the two spring-arms H. i
My inventiony is' operated, when the car is 'pnt in motion, by the revolution of the axle turning the flange C with the propelling screw c, which sets cogwheel D in a rotator-y movement, which imparts a motion to. spring-arms H, by means of rock-shaft d, cranks G, and pitmen g.
The arins H, with clipper I, are in the position shown in red lines in fig. l, at rst, and are pulled up, in the dotted red-line ciu-ve, to the position seen in iigs. l and 3.-
The dipper I is pressed upv against the axle B b v the arms H, which are made, as representedin the drawings, suiciently long, so that some little time is its sides before the arms H descend for more oil, and 'which they begin t0 do as soon as the cranks G'and ascent of spring-arms H is commenced when the nosition shown in red lines in fig..1 is assumed.
I may iind it more desirable to construct one of the spring-arms H stiff and unbending, instead of aA dexible nature, as above described. The eifect this would help to produce'would be, that when the eXible arm H rises with the dipper, the dipper will have its side, which is attached to the flexiblearm H, carried up more ei'ectually applied, and in greater quantity than it would be if applied as `first set forth. The clipper may in this yarrangement also contain a reservoir.
Having thus fully described my invention, What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is y v i The screw c, with Iits iiange C, frame E, cog-wheel D, cranks G, pitmen g, spring-arms H, dipper\ in combination with the housing or grease-bolt, when constructed and operating substantially in the manner and for the purposes set forth.
In testimony that I claim the above-describedinvention; I have fhercunto 'signed my name, this 25th day of November, 1867.
Witnesses: C. M. RIED.

bot-h sides of frame E, and has twocranks, G, irmly Each of the cranks G has a pitman, g, connected is connected with a spring-arm, H, which I prefer to` given for .the axle to 'turn and take up oil all around.
pitmen g reach the position vthey hold in fig. l. The
higher than its opposite, and the oilwould thus be.
