IMPROVEMENT IN SPRINGS.-
The Schcdulo referred. to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same To on whom it may concern Beit known that I, J OHANN M. SCHMIDT, ofNew Albany, in the county of Floyd, and in the State of Indiana, have inveutedcertain new and useful Improvements in Springs; and do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, making a part of this specification.
The nature of my invention consists in the construction and arrangement of a spring forloconlotives, railroad-cars, 850., as will be hereinafiaer fully set forth.
In order to enable'others skilled in the artlto which my invention appertains, to make and use the same, I will nowproceed to describe its construction and operation, referring to the annexed drawings, in which-- Figure 1 is a side view of a car-spring;
Figure 2 is an enlarged section, showing the man- .ner of securing the leaves of the spring; and
Figure 3 is a plan view of the spring. 0 represents an ordinary leaf-spring for cars, locomotives, 850., composed of the leaves a (1-. These leaves are, however, not connected by rivet, bolt, or
any means heretofore commonly used. They are, in
fact, not connected together at all,-
, Each leaf, a, is, at one orthe other end, provided on the upper side with a. projection, 5, formed by a.
countersink from the'uuder side, which projects into a slot in the leaf above, thus l'iOldlllgJthl-EIGHNQSll] position, and at the same time allowing them to slide or give, as occasion requires.
The ends of the spring 0 are narrower than the centre, which will prevent the friction of the wheels from taking the temper out of the spring.
' On the ends of the spring, are placed caps or protections, D D, which are made to fit exactly the hangers E E, and the ends of the springs are slotted, so that the hangers may pass through.
