Lam Patent No. 86.866, dated .mm/r 9, 1869.
IMPRO VEMEN'I IN G-EARING- ZE'OR CARRIAG-ES.
Ibo Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and maxing part of the same.
To all whom it may concern Thenature of my invention consists inth'e-peculiar arrangement of the perches, in connection with a crossbar secured to the hind axle of the vehicle, in such manner as to transfer the weight, usually imposed upon the centre of the axle, to the shoulders of the same, next the hub, and in such manner astodispense with the ordinary iron stays used in connection with a single perch, substantially as hereinafter shown and described. 111 the drawing.-
0 represents the hind axle of a buggy. D D, the spindles of the-same. B, the head-block, which isto rest on the centre of the front axle.
A and A are the perches, connecting the front and hind axles together, and which connect with the crossbar A A, whose position is. just in the rear of the'hind axle O, as shown,'and upon the centre of which crossbar, A A, at A, is placed the hind spring of the buggy.
As here shown, the cross-bar A A and perches A are represented to be made of one solid piece of timber, and bent in the shape shown, and secured tothe axle G in such manner as to'transfer the weight imposed upon .the centre, A, of the cross-bar Ato the bearings E E, next the shoulders of the axle.
When these perches and cross-bar are bent, or otherwise formed of wood, an iron plate is secured to the bottom side, extending the whole way around, in order to stiffen and support it..
It is not essential, however, that these perches and the cross-bar shall be formed of one solid piece of wood, and bent into shape, as described, as the same point is gained by making them .in three separate straight pieces, and framing the cross-bar upon the rear ends of the perches, either immediately back, or in front of the axle G. v
Another modification of my invention, so far as it relates to transferring the weight from the. centre of the axle to the bearings E E, is to discard the perches A and substitute the old style of single perch and iron stays, with the cross-bar A A, the latter being arched up in the centre, and the outer ends secured directly on the top side of the axle O, at the bearings E E, while the axle O is made straight the whole length between the shoulders, and in' every other respect the, gearing may be ironed, and finished after the usualmode. I
But, while I claim the modification lastabove df scribed, of placing the arched barA immediately over the straight axle O, and in connection with the ordinary single perch and stay-irons, my principal object is to use the cross-bar A in connection with the two side perches A A by which arrangementand combination the twofold advantage of relieving the centre of the axle fi'om the weight, by transferring it to the bearings E, and discarding altogether a centre perch, and
the usual multiplicity of iron stays, &c.,is attained, in" the mostsimple and practical manner, and by thussimplifyingthe construction of the gearing, the cost of the same is materially lessened.
I will here state that the cross-bar A A maybe made like ahalf-elliptic spring ifdesirable, and, in this way get a greater degree of motion to the hind spring 0 the vehicle, I find that substantially the same device can be attached to thefront axle, for the same purpose, as seen in Figure 1.
,- Having thus fully described the nature and'object of :my invention,
What -I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is?
The cross-bar A A, in combination with the. axle O, and perch or perches A, constructed in such manner as to transfer the weight usually imposed on the centre of the axle to the bearingsE E, near the hub, substantially as described and for the purposes set forth, and
operating as specified.
