Application filed August 27, 1909. Serial No. '514,925.
`for connecting the body of the sleigh to the gear and to the springs for supporting the rear portion of the sleigh bodyso asto prevent what is known ashorse motion and the invention consists in a sleigh having the body pivotally mounted at a point near its.
front end, leaf springs securing and extending rearwardly on the gear and flexible connections between the rear ends of the springs and the rear portion of the body, said springs supporting the rear portion of the body and permitting the saine to swing vertically and connections as hereinafter described and claimed; y
In the accompanying drawings z-li`1gure l is an elevation of a sleigh known as a s i cutter constructed in accordance with my invention. Fig. 2 is a detail perspective view of a portion'of the gear. F ig. 3 is a detaily section of one of the pivotal connections 'between the front portion of the sleigh body and the gear.
In accordance with my invention, the gear of 'the sleigh is provided with rearwardly and upwardly extending` leaf springs 1. The said springs are here shown as havingtheir front ends clipped on the centers oi side bars 2, which side bars are secured to the raves 3 of the gear. f'lhe runners are indicated at't and the body at 5. On the side bars, near their front ends, are clips G which have up wardly extending heads 7. A rod -8 which is disposed transversely withreference to the gear has its ends extended through openings in the said heads 7. Brackets 9 or other suitable devices'which are here shown aS secured under the bottom oi the ,sleigh `body near the front end thereof by bolts l0 are provided with depending lugs' or leaves 11 which bear against the innen-sides of the .heads 7 of theclips 6 and have openings through which the rod 8 extends so that the said brackets coact with the said clips 'and the said cross rod to efect pivotal connections betweenthe front portion of the body and the sleigh gear so that the body is angu larly movable in a vertical plane.
Under the bottom of the sleigh body, near the rear end thereof, are secured brackets l2 Iwhich project outwardly from the sides of the body and are connected by links 13 to the rear ends of the sp1-inns, the said links being pivotally connectedj to the said brackets and the said springs servingin effect to form. dexible connections between the rear portion of the .body and the rear ends of the springs to compensate for the `end thrusts of the l springs caused by the vertical movements of the rear portion of the body when the sleigh is in motion. The said springs form the sole. support for the rear portion ot the' sleigh body vand in coaction with the pivotal con nections between the front portion of the body and the gear enable the rear portion of the body to swing in a vertical plane and entirely overcome horse motion.
lli/'hat lis claimed is A slei Dh having side bars secured to the gear,lea springs extending rearwardly on the side bars and having their front ends secured thereto, clips secured on the side bars near the front ends thereof and having upwardly extending heads provided 'with transverse openings, a cross bar extending through the openings of the clip heads, a body having brackets on its under side pivctally mounted on said cross bar and bearing against the heads of the clips, brackets secured under the bottom of the sleigh body near the rear end thereof and projecting outwardly therefrom, and links pivotally connected to sai-d brackets and to the rear ends of said leali springs and forming Flexible connections between the rear portion ofthe body and the rear ends of the said springs.
