SPECIFICATION forming part of Design No. 26,904, dated April 13, 1897.

Application filed February 27, 1897. Serial No. 625.425- Term of patent 14 years.

Be it known that I, BENJAMIN W. TUCKER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Newark, in the count7 of Essex and State 0f v New Jersey, have invented and produced a new and original Design for the Side Frame of Car-Trucks; and I do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the ac com panyingdran-fings, forming a part thereof.

In the drawings, Figurel is a side elevation of the side f rame of a car-truck embodying my design. Fig. 2 is a like View of same, looking at the inner side of said side frame; and Fig. 3 is a Vertical section of same on the dotted line 3 3 of'Fig. l.

The leading features of my design consist in the forni and configuration of the side frame fora ear-truck, substantially as shown and described.

In the drawings, A designates the side frame, which, as shown in Fig. 1,has a plain outer face and, as illustrated in Fig. 2, has along the upper and lower edge portions of its inner face the lateral flanges B C.

The side frame A has the downwardlyextending members or portions D D, along which the flange C continues on a curved line, as shown in Fig. 2, and said frame also has the upper horizontal members E E and outer Vertical members I11 I?, along which the upper flange B extends. The members D E F combine With the vertical end edges 0a a of the main frame A to outline the rectangular pedestal-spaces G. The thickness and Width of the iianges B C continue uniform throughout the entire length of said anges. At the end edges of the Web of the main frame A are the right-angle pieces II, Whose outer Vertical transverse Hange I combines with the thickness of the said Web to form a pedestalsurface harmonizing and coextensive in width With the Width of the Vertical flanged members F.

The parts of the side frame harmonize with one another to produce an outline and general configuration of attractive and desirable characteristics.

What I claim is- The design for the side frame of a car-truek, substantially as shown and described.

In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two Witnesses.

BENJAMIN W. TUCKER.
