tanti @im I, Mmkssk swim, 4of summit" Hin, iuthecbunty an improved 'lreadle-VVa-gon,` of which the following isja snecicaton. f 1 f I Nature and Object of the I fiwen'tion.` I
The irstpart' of theinventiou consists of two sets of :foot-levers,` placed on opposite` sides of `the wagonpole, and vibrate-,ou a pin in` the head` of the same; they are connctedto a four-crank axle by means of links-as is hereinafter showuand described. f
The secoudparmof theinventiou relatesto the ratchet-wheels, pawls, and spider-wheels, whereby the said wagon-wheels are rotated.` f

" Figui-e1] is a perspective view.
Figure 2vis a side View ofthe vibrating levers and I Figure 3 is an inside view'of one of the rear wheels of `the wagon, showing the ratchet-wheel, pawls, land the spider-wheel. I i s v I y l jlgFigure 4e is a back view of A the crank-axle.
` Generalpescripticn.
f Aand'B are the axlesfofthe' wagon, and C the .pole-and seat-carrier `of' the same; the rear axle B `has four cranks, abc al, situated iu the same plane, in pairs, `ou opposite sides of the axle. I
I is `al studsecured toad projecting `both ways beyond the-h ead of the pole. v
fthe crank a by the-jointed links G I I a" lever whichNibrateson a pin', e, of the level' GE; it is connected to the jointed levers G H, at their inter'section,"by the links-` J, as shown at fig. 2. The lippen-and lowerco'nheeting `links E and G connect `wth the cranks `handit ou `opposite sides of the axle, ligs. Zand 4. I Y `On the opposite sideof `the `polegG is a systemof levers, k 7;', ,and links, whichare i dentiealin construeitionaud arrangement niththe-levers and links just described. y The 'levers vibrate Voh the opposite end of the siudD,andoperate through the medium of their of Carbon and State of Pennsylvania, have invented combination of the rear` wheelsfot'` the wagon with E, g.}2,is a vibratinglever which turns on the piu l D`; ltisconnected to the crank b by the link F, and to" cllflANIIssIisrAIIDuY or SUMMIT IIIIJL, PENNSYLVANIA.

links, the remaining cranks c d; they are set and adjusted to liEt'and depress alternately with' the levers- E and' I.
When pressure is applied to the footrests j' g the levers E and'lf'descend, asshownin lig. 2.. The conneetiugdink G acts by thrusting or pushing its crank a, while the conneotingdink F draws its crank b4 Afor-- ward, which could not be accomplished except by the levers E and I vibrating, as shown, one on the pin D and the other on its fellow, whereby twofmotions and two pressures are produced4 at a time.
Thesystem of `levers and links on' the opposite side of the pole G are operatedpreeisely similar and produce like results. Y
L', 3, is a ratchet-wheel on the inner side of each hind or rear wheel, fig. l, and M isa pawl and v,spider-wheel, which turns with' the axle B.
The pawls N and 0 on the arms P and Q of the spider-.wheel take into the serratious or teeth of the wheel L, and are kept in place by the springs h, lig. 3. The `revolution of the spider-wheel with its axle` carries with it' the ratchet-wheel and its wagon-wheeL If the wagon should be turned backward, the resistance oieredby the pivot-Wheel would overcome the friction of' the pawls on the ratchet-wheel and permit them to slide over without 'turning the pivot-wheel. The rear end fof the pole C is carried by a cross-bar, di, on the uprights j, from the axle B. .The hind wheels are controlled by the shoes It kon the cross-bar and pieces] at the back of the seat, lig. 1.
R is a steering-frame from the front axle A, conthis specilication iu presence of two subscribing witmesses.
