UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.

IMPROVEMENT IN TONGUE SUPPORTS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 125,839, dated April 16, 1872.
SPECIFICATION.
Specification deseribin g certain Improvements in Wagons, invented by BY N UNA- MACKER, of Earlham, in the county of Madison and State of Iowa.
My invention is an improved support for wagon-tongues. It consists in pivoting two tapering steel blades together -and boltin g them to the front axle, in such a manner that they will rest upon a fulerum and bear up the pivoted tongue, as hereinafter fully set forth.
Fig. 1 of my drawing is a perspective view, showing a V-shaped spring, formed by conneet-.ing the two steel blades a a. Fig. 2 is a' View illustrating my manner of combining and operating the V-shaped springwith the axle, hounds, and tongue.
A A is the axle. B B, the hounds. These may extend in rear of axle as is common. C C is the pole or tongue. a a is the V-shaped spring bolted to the under side of the axle. b is a rod passing through the frame or hounds B B, and also through the rear end of the tongue C G. It also passes through the round blocks c c and the braces d d, and serves to hold all securely together in such a manner that the tongue is pivoted and allowed vertical play. f f is an iron bar, bolted to the front ends of the hounds, and serves as a fulcrum to support the spring a a. upon which the tongue rests. It also adds to the strength of the frame or hounds B B.
I am aware that springs of various forms have been applied to support a wagon-tongue. I consider, however, that my form of spring and manner of combining it with the axle and tongue are new and advantageous.
Claims.
I I claim as my invention- The V-shaped spring a a, combined with the axle A A, the hounds B B, the tongue C O, the rod `b, the braces d d, the blocks c c, and the fulerums ff, in the manner described, and for the purposes specited.
