Running-Gear for Wagons. N ,157, 42, T PatentedDec.'8,11874.
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
WILLIAM H. SIMMANS, OF SHELBY COUNTY, TENNESSEE.
IMPROVEMENT |N RUNNING-GEARS FOR WAGONS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 157,642, dated December 8, 11374; application filed September 11, 1873.
. ster or runninggear of the wagon,'as hereinafter described and claimed.
In the drawing, Figure 1 is a sectional elevation of the running-gear of a wagon provided with my improved coupling; and Fig. 2, a side elevation, with the'front axle turned at right angles to the rear axle. Fig. 3 is a detail plan view of the coupling proper.
So far as relates to the tongue I, Wheels A B, the axles G H, bolsters H H, reach 0, and fifth -wheel D, there is nothing essentially novel. The tongue is rigidly connected to the front axle G, and. the king-bolt F passes through the latter and its bolster H. To permit the tongue and axle G free "ertica'l movement or oscillation, thereach is hinged to the U-shaped link' K, and the latter fits on the vertical tubular standard E, which is firmly attached to the axle G by any suitable or preferred means, and projects upward into a recess in the under and rear side of the bolster Hf. Thus the draft-strain on the rear part of the Wagon is transferred to or borne by the standard instead of the king-bolt. This I do not, however, claim broadly. The link K turns freely around the standard E in the recess of the bolster, so that the front axle may assume various angles to the rear one, horizontally. This construction also allows the two parts of the running-gear to be readily disconnected when required.
What I claim is- The combination, with the reach 0, fixed tubular standard E, axle G, recessed bolster H, and king-bolt F, of the hinged U-shapcd link K, as shown and described.
