ALBERT SANFORD, OF GOLDEN CITY, MISSOURI, ASSIGNOR OF ONE-HALF OF HIS RIGHT TO J. W. HICKS, OF SAME PLACE.
MECHANISM FOR PROPELLING CARS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 232,652, dated September 2-8, 1880.
Application filed June 23, 1880.
To all whom it may concern:
= Be it known that T, ALBERT SANFORD, of Golden City, in the county of Barton and State of Missouri, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Mechanism for Propelling Cars; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such'as will enable others skilled in the art to which it pertains to make and use it, reference being had to the accompanyin g drawings, which form part of this specification.
My invention relates to an improved mechanism for propelling cars and vehicles; and it consists in the combination and arrangement of wheels and levers, wherebya man, by turni n g a crank, can propel a car or vehicle smoothly and rapidly along, as will be more fully described hereinafter.
The object of my invention is to provide a cheap and simple mechanism, which can be applied to street-cars and other such vehicles, whereby a man can propel a car and thus dispense with all need of horses or other animals to draw it.
Figure 1 is a side elevation of my invention. Fig. 2 is an inverted view of the same.
A represents the frame of a car which has secured to it, at one end, a supporting-frame or standard, B. Journaled in the upper end of this standard is a shaft, (1, which is provided with a crank, D, on its inner end, and a gearwheel, E, upon its center. This gear-wheel meshes with the pinion F on the shaft G, which shaft is also journaled in the upper part of the supporting-frame, and has a driving-Wheel, O, and a balance-wheel, H, secured to its outer end. Passing down from thepulley O,around a pulley, I, on the end of the shaft J, which extends flOIOSSzthB under side of the car, is a driving-belt, L, which communicates the power from the shaft G to the shaft J.
The balance-wheel is provided with a wristpin, and fastened to this wrist-pin is the connecting-rod N, which has its opposite end piv- (ModeL) oted to the upper end of the lever P, which is pivoted on one side of the frame A. The lower end of this lever P has pivoted to it a connecting-rod, Q, which extends toward the shaft J and has its inner end pivoted to the 0 lever R, which is pivoted on the under side of the frame A. This lever R has pivoted to its shorter end, on the opposite side of the car from the mechanism above described, a connecting-rod, S, which rod has its outer end fastened to acrank, T, 011 the opposite end of the shaft J from the driving-pulley. This shaft J has a pinion, U, and this pinion meshes with a large gear-wheel, V, on the axle W of one of the pairs of driving-wheels upon which the frame A is placed.
It will be seen that power is applied to both ends of this shaft J for the purpose of applying a much greater power to it than could be done to'one end alone, and so as to impart a 6 much more steady and even motion to it. By using a driving-belt which runs from the shaft G, and then operating the levers by the balancewheel, a man is able to propel a car or any other similar vehicle along at a rapid and even rate, and thus dispense with all need of animals to draw the vehicle or car.
Having thus described my invention, I can claim- The combination of a driving-shaft, G, a belt, L, and a shaft, J, with a balance-wheel and lever that are pivoted upon the side of the car, and a lever t at is pivoted on the under side of the car, and their connecting-rods, whereby the power is applied to the end of So the shaft J from two different sources, substantially as set forth.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing 1 have hereunto set my hand this 18th day of June, 1880.
ALBERT SANFORD.
