ANDREW F. SHULER, OF ARCANUM, OHIO.
H U B SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 444,105, dated January 6, 1891. Application filed December 9, 1889- Serial No. 333,050. (No model.)
To aZZ whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, ANDREW F. SHULER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Arcanum, in the county of Darke and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Hubs, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to hubs for vehiclewheels.
The object of my invention is to provide a hub having an outer shell or casing which extends entirely over the wooden portion of the hub, said shell or casing being made in two parts adapted to be forced onto the hub from opposite ends thereof and j oined together between staggered openings adapted to receive the spokes of the hub.
My invention consists in the various constructions hereinafter described, and set forth in the claims. I
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a side view of a hub embodying my invention, the outer shells thereof being shown in position for being forced onto the inner wooden core. Fig. 2 is a sectional view of the same, showing the outer shells in position on the core. Fig. 3 is a similar view showing a slight modification in the construction of the outer shell. Fig. 4 is an enlarged view in detail and partly in section, showing the manner of joining the portions of the shell when constructed-as shown in Fig. 2.
Like parts are indicated by similar letters of reference throughout the several views.
In the said drawings, A represents the inner core or hub proper.
B and 15' represents, respectively, the different portions of the shell adapted to be forced onto the hub from the opposite ends thereof. The part B, Ipreferably make long enough to extend beyond the hub at the rear and form a sand-band at D, the other or front portion B being, also long enough to extend in front of the hub and form a pointband D. Each portion of the shell B and B is provided with a series of openings 0 and 0, adapted to come opposite and form a portion of similar openings E and E in the core or hub proper, these openings, .when intheir proper position, being staggered, as shown, to receive the spokesinawell-known manner.
On one portion of the shell, as at B,Iform an on twardly-extending flange F, adapted, when that portion of the shell is in position on the hub, to stand between the respective series of openings. This flange F is preferably made slightly thicker or heavier than the shell proper, and is provided with an annular recess or shoulder G, extending into the said shell about half the thickness thereof, and adapted to receive the end of the other portion B of the shell, which fits therein, as shown in Fig. 2 and in detail in Fig. 4.
The openings O and O in the respective parts B and B of the shell are formed at a sufficient distance from the inner ends of said parts, so that when joined together, as above ClGSGllUGCl, the inner edges of said openings stand substantially flush with the flange F. This flange F therefore forms a support for the spokes in a well-known manner, while at the same time a suflicient amount of metal is left in the shell proper between the spokes to form a substantial support therefor and prevent any tendency of loosening on the part of the shell.
In Fig. 3 I have shown the flange F formed partly on each of the shell portionsB and B. In this case the sand-band D and the pointband D are shown separate, these constructions being adapted to be modified in either case, as preferred. When the point-band D is made separate, as shown in Fig. 3, I preferably form thatportion B of the shell with which the point-band is toconnect so that when placed thereon the ends of the respective parts shall join together and form a substantial continuation of the shell.
It will be seen by the above construction that I form a hub in which a metallic shell completely incases the inner or wooden portion of the hub. A solid or loose flange or ring is provided between the staggered openings, the parts being adapted to be forced onto the hub in opposite directions and join firmly together and be held in proper position when the spokes are placed therein. By such construction the wheel is entirely protected and the wood equally compressed, forming a much superior construction than when the shell is forced onto the hub from one direction only, leaving a portion of the wood exposed.
llaving thus described my invention, I I claim l l. Ina vehicle-hub, an outershell or casing j formed of two parts, each part being provided with a series of openings at a point slightly i removed from the inner end of said part, said openings beingadapted to stand in staggered series when the parts are in position on the I hub, said parts being shaped to fit the respect- 1 ive ends of the hub, and adapted to be forced l in opposite directions thereon and joined tol gether at their inner ends, and aprojecting flange of uniform thickness between the re- 1 speetive series of openings, substantially as i specified.
The combination, with an inner hub or core, of an outer shell having a central prol jecting flange and staggered openings arranged in series 011 either side of said flange, said shell being divided into two parts, so that 2 each series of openings shall stand slightly back of the dividing-line between the parts, whereby the shell may be placed onto said hub from opposite ends and joined together between the respective series of openings, substantially as specified. 2
3. The combination, with a hub or core, of i an outer casing formed in two parts, one of l said parts being provided with a projecting 1 flange having an annular recess therein adapted to receive the inner end of the other part, the said parts being adapted to slip onto a hub from opposite directions, substantially as specified.
:l. The combination, with an inner hub or core, of an outer shell or core made in two parts and adapted to extend entirely over said hub or core and form a point and sand band therefor, one of said parts being provided with a projecting flange and an annular recess and the other part being adapted to fit into said recess, substantially as specified.
The combination, With an inner hub or core, of an outershell having staggered openin gs therein, a projecting flange between said staggered openings, and an annular recess in said flange adapted to receive the inner end of the other portion of the shell, which is forced onto said hub from the opposite direction, substantially as specified.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand this 4th day of December, A. D.
ANDREW F. SIIULER.
