G. L. PEIRCE.
SKATE.
Patented May' 25, 1886.
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
CHARLES L. PEIRCE, OF MILVAKEE, VISCONSIN.
SKATE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent` No. 342,458, dated IVIay 25, 1886. Y
Application filed October 5,' 1885.
To all whom, it may concern.:
Be itknownthatI, CHARLES L. PEIRCE, of Milwaukee, in the county of Milwaukee, and in the State of Wisconsin, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Skates; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof.
My invention relates to improvements in skates, and will be fully described hereinafter.
` In the drawings, Figure l is aside elevation of my improved skate; Fig. 2, a sectional view taken on line x x, Fig. 3; Fig. 3, a transverse section on line z z, Fig. l; Fig. 4, a detail sectional view of a modification, taken on line y y, Fig. 5; Fig. 5, a vertical transverse section of Fig. 4, and Figs. 6, 7, 8, 9, and l0 detail views.
A is the frame of my skate,which is hollow, as shown in Figs. 3 and 5,to receive arunnerblade which is secured therein by bolts a, and consists of two plates, B, having anges b about their edges.
C C are runner-blocks, or blocks which form the runner. Each of these blocks has side grooves, c, and the inner ends ofthe blocks are preferably beveled,so that they will readily round the curves of the iianges b. The blocks are placed between the plates B, and
' the flanges of the latter enter their grooves c, while the two plates are clamped to a central core,D,by rivets d. Then the runner-blade is inserted between the sides of frame A and secured therein by the bolts a, two or more in number. The blocks will now be clamped loosely by the plates and, will be free to revolve about the core, having for their bearings the flanges b of the plates B. Though the greater number of the blocks are made as shown at C, for the purpose of lubricating the parts I make'some of the blocks as shown at C-that is,with an opening that extends from itsinner face through more than half of the block, having a branch that extends out into both of the grooves, and this opening is filled with an absorbent, G2, so that both sides will be lubricated. rlhese blocks are fed with the lubricant from an absorbent strip F, that is embeddedin or secured to the corel) in such a position that the absorbent C2 will come in contact with it as the blocks revolve, and thus constantly supply the waste as the skate Serial No. 173,902. (No model.)
travels, the strip F being supplied at intervals with lubricating fluid through a port, f. (Shown in Fig. 3.)
Instead of a core D, such as shown in Figs. 2 and 3, I may simply use washers D', t0 keep the blades or plates B apart, as shown in Figs. 4L and 5, and one or more of these may bc covered with an absorbent, F', that takes the place of the strip F in Fig. 2, but is fed, like it, through a port, f.
Still another device for lubricating is shown in Fig. 9, wherein I use a solid lubricant, which consists of a plug, g, of a lubricating compound that is inserted in the block before it is grooved, and is grooved on its sides with it, so that it will form a part of the bearing surface of the block; or I may make the blocks of a composition of which a lubricant is a component part.
I prefer to make my blocks C C of what is known as vulcanized fiber, but may make them of any other Substance that may be suitable.
G G are washers that are solidly riveted between the sides of the frame at the heel and toc, the washer G serving as a brake when the heel is depressed, and G serving as a pivot for fancy movements.
The ruimer proper, `which consists of the blades B, inclosing the core or washers and the blocks, is, as before stated, bound together by the rivets d, `and`is an entirety, and may be removed bodily after the bolts c are withdrawn, leaving a frame into which an ice runner, such as shown in Fig. 10, may be inserted, (and secured by the two end bolts a, only, in order to obtain flexibility in the ceu ter of the -blade;) but any desired style of blade may be used. ThereforeI propose to accompanying my skate with several, and thus I can furnish to the market both a summer and winter skate, the latter with a number of blades having a variety of curves for greater facility in fancy skating.
It is not desirable for the blocksin my skate to slide sidcwise on the floor, but instead they should take hold of and adhere to the skatingsurface while in contact, and hence I propose to slightly roughen their outer surfaces either by a coating of emery or in any other desirable manner. H
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
l. In o. skate, a ruimer composed of a series of independent non-rotating sliding blocks, in combination with a Way or ways for supporting the blocks and forming bearings for them, substantially as set forth.
2. In 'a skate, a runner-blade consisting of two flanged plates, in combination with the non-rotating sliding runnerbloeks'supported by and between said plates, as set forth.
3. The eombinatiomwith a skate-frame, of arunnerblnde andnon-rotztting sliding runner-blocks adapted to travel on said runnerbladeg'substantially 'its set forth.
4. In a skate, a runner consisting of a series of independent blocks, in combination with a. block or blocks forming members of the series and having capillary cores, in com- 2o bination with a. lubricating-reservoir, also vsupported by the runner-blade, as set forth.
