JOHN C. MCAGARTHY,
or NEW YORK, N. Y.
Letters Patent .N 96,457, datezl November 2, 1869.
The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making parl: ofthe same.
To all 'whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, JOHN C. MCCARTHY, of the city, county, and State of New York, have invented n new and improved Horse-Power Fire-Engine; and I do hereby declare that the' following is n. t'ull, clear, and exact description thereof', which will enable others skilled in the art to make and userthe same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming'part oft-bis specication, in which- Figure v1 represents n front elevation of my improved horse-power tire-engine.
Figure 2 is a plan or top View of the same.
Figure 3 is a side elevation ot' the same.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
This invention relates to a new manner of constructing tire-engines with a. view of facilitating their operation where man or steam-power cannot be readily obtained.
The invention consists in the application of an endless apron or other power to a. tire-engine, so that horses on the engine or near itr` may operate its pump-work for extinguishing tire. v
In suburban and country places, where engines could not be kept, and where the men may-be employed on the fields, such an engine will be of great service, as one man, with one or two horses, con keep it in successful operation.
In the dniwing-` A represents the truck or body of the engine.
B is the pump 0n the same.
c is the endless apron, for the horse to travel on, for operating the pump, by menus of a crank-shaft, C, and piston-rod D.
The carriage may have vertical side plates, E, and
a folding back plate. F, which latter. when let down.
as in fig. 3, will serve as an inclined plane,.for the horses to reach the apron.
The `engine is drawn to the place of confia-gration in the ordinary manner-,mld is then connected wit-b `vthe water, and can then be set in operation by the horsesl which conveyed it to the re.
Hoving thus described my invention, l
I clziim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent-'- 1. The combination of the endless apron, the crankshaft and piston, and the pump, all being arranged upon the truck A, as and for the purpose specified.
2. A carriage-fiume, provided with -the folding plate F, to turn down, and form a pathway for the horse to the endless apron, in the manner set forth.
. JN O. O. MCGARTHY.
