JOHN BALBAOI-I, OF SAN JOS, CALIFORNIA.
Letters Patent No. 86,348, dated' Februa/ry 2, 1869.
IIMPRO'V'ELGENT IN CARRIAGE-SPRINGS.
The Schedule :aimed te in these Letters Patent and making part of the um.
To all wwm it may concern:
Be it known that I, J oHN Banshee, of San Jos,
springs; and
It consists in a single leaf without any holes in it, so attached to the reaches, and supported by standards or braces, that in combination with the straps which support the carriage-body, it forms aa perfectly-easy spring, and without anystrain on the-reaches.
To more fully illustrate my invention, reference is had to the accompanying drawings, and letters marked thereon, forming part of this specification, of which- Figure l is aplan 'of my invention, showing therelative position of the springs.
Figure 2 isa side elevation of the same.
Similar letters of reference in each of the drawings indicate like parts.
vA A are the iron standards, or braces, which may be curved, as shown, or constructed in any convenient form, one end of each being firmly fastened to the 'ends of the reaches C C, by bolts L L.
The curved steel springs B are connected to the standards A, at their upper ends, by meansY of the bolts M M.`
Thelowerends of the springs are fastened to the lower part of the standards A or to the reaches, by the bolts K K, which may also serve to fasten the ends of the bearing-straps F F, as shown.
These straps may be made tight at any time by a turn-buckle, a common buckle, or other convenient device.
The cross-bar D and the axle-bed E are fastened to opposite ends of the reaches by clips.
The braces G Gare'fastened to the reaches 0 by clips J and run down to the lower part of the kingbolt in the centre. y
The braces H H are also fastened to the reaches, and to the axle-bed E byy clips.
The carriage-body being fastened to the supportingstraps, the Whole is ready for use.
. Theadvantages of this construction are evident.
As the springs B are attached to each end, and of a peculiar curve, any strain or weight is distributed in such a manner as to bend the spring evenly, and withl out any of the unpleasant jarring movements often felt.
By the use of the standards A A, all the strain is taken from the reaches and transferred to the springs B, while the whole arrangement forms a peculiarly light and ornamental device for a carriage-spring.
Having thus described my invention,
What claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
The adj ustable thorough-brace F, right and lefth and screw-boltL, spring B, and fixed standard A, combined and arran ged substantially as described for the purpose set forth.
In witness whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and seal.
