j Application vled February 8, 1908. SeriallNo. 414,956.
To alt/whom 'itmay concemj 1 n 13e it known that I,`W1LL1AM C. MANEss, a citizen of the United States, residingA at Laredo, in the county of,y Webb and lStateof Texas, havelinvented "a new'and' useful Lu-V` bricator, of which the following is aspecifi'- cation. j j j j This invention relates to lubricating devices for use in thejournal boxesofrailway cars, or at other places where the lubricant is to be fed upward toan under bearing jour# nal. j
The principal object ofthe invention is to provide a novel form of-lubricator which is set into motion by the revoluble journal or axle,
and which will carry lubricant continuously from the bottomof the box to such journal.
A further object of the invention is to provide a device of this type of such construction as to permit its ready introduction into and removal from journal boxes of ordinary construction. j i j Y With these andother objects in view, as will more fully hereinafterl appear,V the invention consists in certain novel features oflconjstruction and arrangement of parts, hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings, and particularly pointed out in the appended claimsit being understood that various changes in the form, proportions, size and minor details of the structure may be made without departing from the spirit or sacrificing any of the advantages of theinventionL j In the` accompanying drawings z-Figure 1 is a sectional elevation of.` alubricating def vice constructed in accordance ywith the invention, showing the same in position in an ordinary form of journal box. 2 is a detail view partly in section, of one end portion of oneof the frames. Fig. 3 is an end view of the lubricator` and showing the axle thereon.` Fig. 4 is a view similar to Fig. 3 and showing the frames foldeddownward.
Similar numerals of lreference are employed to indicate4 corresponding partsI throughout the several igures of the draw-r ings. j
The bas'e plate 10 of the lubricator has a pair of frames 12 pivotally connected to its side portionll. Eachof these frames comprises a pair of spaced plates which are connected together by a block or web 13 integral therewithfor secured` thereto in Yorder to.
maintain the plates in proper relative `posiother two.
tion. These frames may be moved down to a position parallel with the base plate 10 in order to effect Vtheir ready introduction into the journal box, and when in-position, may be moved upftoa position at a right angle to the base plate, and when turned to this position, the innermost plates l2 of each frame will bear againstthe opposite side portions of the 'main body fof the base plate. Each of the frames 12 carries a pair of pins 15 on which are mounted rollers 16, formed of compressed paper, vulcanized fiber, or other material preferably non-metallic, and each roller is provided with a peripheral groove 17, that will Vtend to carry upa quantity of oil from the bottom of the 'ournal box to the lower portion of the journa or axle.
Secured tothe bottom of `the base plate are three leaf springs 17', two 'of which are arranged in parallel relation with each other,
and with the frames 12,.while the third springv is disposed at a right angle to the These three springs bear on the bottom of the journal box and tend to hold the lubricator up, so that the rollers are yieldably maintained in contact with the journal` or axle, and are frictionally rotated by contact therewith. The innermost frame 12 at that end of the lubricator which is irst introduced into the journal box is provided with a (projecting eye 20, so that it may be engage by the ordinary packing hook or similar tool, and` after the opposite end of the lubricator is inserted, theoutermost of the frames is Aturned upto vertical position. The hin es are located at the outer edges of the ro er vcarrying frames, so that said framescannot move toward each other, and when in posi-y tion in the journal box the frames are held from outward movement, so that the rollers will be maintained in proper position in contact with the lower face of the journal or axle, and will be operated at a speed proportioned to that at which 'the journal or axle is rotated, so that the oil or other lubricant will be carried up into contact with the journal. I
I claimzy 1.1n a journal lubricator a base plate, frames hinged to the plate, and a pair of journal engaging rollers carried by each frame.
2. In ajournal lubricator a base, a pair of frames hinged to the base, said hinges being and drawn up to a vertical positionarranged to limit the movement of the frames toward each other, and a pair of journal engaging rollers carried by each frame.
3. In a journal lubricator a spring supported base, a frame hinged to the base and provided With an eye for the reception of a tool by Which said frame may be turned to upright position after its insertion in the journal box, and a pair of journal engaging rollers carried by the frame.
4. In a journal lubrieator a base, journal engaging rollers, roller carrying frames hinged to the base, said frames being free to swing outward from each other, and being 15 held from movement toward eaoh other beyond positions at a right angle to the base.
5. In a journal lubrioator, a base plate, a pair of frames pivoted thereto and each comprising a pair of spaced plates, the innermost plates of each frame being arranged to en age the upper face of the base plate, rol ers mounted in said frames, and loaf springs secured to and forming a yieldable support for the base.
In testimony that l claim the foregoing as my own, I have hereto aHiXed my signature in the presence of two Witnesses.
