BENJIMAN HOMER MYERS, OF COLUMBUS, OHIO.
I CASING non srnmos.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Apr. 18, 1911.
Application filed September a, 1910. Serial No. 580,510.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, BENJIMAN R. MYERS, acitizen of the United States, residing at Columbus, in the county of Franklin and State of Ohio, have invented new and useful Improvements in Casings for Springs, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to a combined protecting and lubricating casing for vehicle springs, the object of the invention being to provide a device of this character which is designed particularly for the reception of the spring of an automobile so as to entirely house the same and to lubricate it and to prevent the same from being subjected to foreign matter such'as dust, grit or the like and to prevent the s ring from rusting under its ex os'ure to t e Weather.
In the rawi ng, forming a portion of this specification and in which like numerals of reference indicate similar parts in the severa-l views :Figure 1 is a side elevation of my improved combined lubricating and protecting casing showing its application to an ordinary leaf sprin Fig. 2 is a bottom plan view thereof. I ig. 3 is a longitudinal section through the central portion of the spring and through a portion of the.casing.
Fig. 4 is a longitudinal sectionthrough a portion of the end of the spring and through a portion of the casing. s
As described, the spring 1 is of the ordinary type commonly used on vehicles such as automobiles. The casing 2 is constructed ofleatheror the equivalent pliable material and. it conforms in confi uration "with the f spring so as to substantially incase the same, I
as clearl shown. The casing is preferably formed rom a single piece of material and its adjacent edges 3 which are disposed beneath the spring are provided with eyelets 4 for the lacing 5. At the center, the casing is cutaway, as shown at 6, to accommodate the axle," (not shown), and the axle-engaging clips .7.
A strip of felt 8 or equivalent material of porous or absorbent like body extends along the spring at the upper end thereof.
This strip of material is provided with resilicnt socket members 9 to receive the resilient head members 10 on the casing 2. By this construction I provide for the per mancnt fastening of the said absorbent material with the casing. At the center, the casing is provided with a rubber buffer 11, straps 12 or other such equivalent fastening devices are employed for engaging the buffer with the spring, as clearly shown in Fig. 1 of the drawing. y p
In operation, the absorbent strip material is saturated with a suitable lubricant. It is then applied ,to the spring, as before stated. The casing is then secured to the absorbent material and to the spring. This construction has been found most eilicient and practical in that I provide for the perfeet lubrication of the spring and I house the same against incoming grit, dust or
