Patented Dec. '7, 19..
Original application filed September 1,1908, Serial No. 451,161. Divided and this application flied Decemte e, 1908. Serial No. 466,618.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, FRANCIS X. MALOC- say, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Jersey City, county of Hudson, and State otNew Jersey, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Car-Doors, of which the following is a specification.
The object of my' invention is to provide a car of this class in which the doors are so arranged that at the rear end of the car, the regular entrancedoor will operate so as to permit passengers to enter the car, but not to leave the car, and the doors at the otherend will permit the passengers to leave'the car, and when the car runs in the opposite direction, the doors can be made to operate in the reversemann'er, that is, the rear door which was the front door, willoperate so as to admit passengers and the other door will operate so as to permit the egress of passengers.
This application is a division of my a plioation filed September 1st, 1908; Ser. 0. 451,161. i
For more particular description of this invention, reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings forming a part hereof, in which:
Figure 1 is a sectional View showing one embodiment of my invention, the "section being taken. through a portion of the interior of a car looking outwardly. Fig. 2isa lon-' gitudinai section of the structure shownin Fig. 1. Fig. Bis a sectional plan view of a portion of the car. Figs. 4, 5, 6 and are detailed views showing portions of the mechanism for shifting the doors.
Throughout the. various views: of the drawings, similar reference characters designate similar-parts. v
As stated above, my invention is applica; ble to what are known as pay-as-you-enter cars 1 which'have the usual large platforms'2, and doors 3.
The essence of my inventionv resides, as above pointed out, in the doors 3 and the parts adjacent thereto and connected therewit-h. These cars are also provided with the usual railing 5, behind which the conductor stands and which separates the passengers getting off from those getting on.
In the structure shown in Figs. lto 7 init is. reinforced-by meta spectivelyJ The rollers 8 run on a suitable guide 11,' of which there are four, and the elusive, the doors 3 are two in number and designated 6 and 7.. They are identical in' all respects so that a description of one will answer for both, Each of these doors is provided with suitable rollers 8 mounted at its bottom, and at its upper and lower edges,
The guides 11 are pivoted in the vertical.
with pins 50 and the disk 49 with 'pins 51. The pins 50 and 51 are connected by springs 52 so that when the crank'46 is moved, the disk 49 at first has no movement and when it moves, it shifts rapidly thereby promptly reversing the valve. Valve 47 is the usual fourway valve, one port 53 being provided for the admission of air under pressure and.
another port 54 for the exhaust. The cylinder 24 is provided with the conventional, ports which register with the ports in the valve 47 so that one end of the cylinder will be charged while the other end is exhausted. As these details are all of the conventional form, a more detailed description is unnecessary. The other end of the valve spindle 48 the spi'ingpressed bolts 42 from the en'd with the disk 49 is provided with a segmental stop 55 which is fixed thereon in 'any suitable manner and adapted to impinge against a stop 56 in a casing 57 and normallyheld in its lowest position by a spring 58 pressingagainst a bracket 59 secured to the casing 57. The bolt 56 is profloor 17 and are identical. These brackets are provided with spring-pressed rods 65 and 66 respectively, which rods carry parallel plates 67 and 68 respectively, the plates being separated by the thickness-of the bar 61. -The bar 61 is bent upwardly and then inwardly at each end to form hooks 69'and 70 which are adapted to pass between or abutagainst the plates 67 and 68'respec tively. The bar 61 also provided with stops 71 and 72 respectively, against which and 34 are adapted to impinge.
limit. .under thebolt56 the spring 58 forces this The pivots 32 and 40 carry in addition to the levers 31 and 39 respectively, a second set of levers 73' and 74 respectively, each of which is provided with a pusher 75 which is adapted to shove the door 6 or 7 when the pusher is in operation. The pusher is only in .operation when the lever on which it is mounted is connected to the other lever on the same fulcrum. In Fig. 2 the lever 39 is shown secured to the lever 54 by means of a bolt 76. Only one bolt 76 is provided in order that only one of the pushers 75 will operate. This bolt is adapted to have one part rest in a crotch 77 in the upper end of the lever 31 and it has another part resting in a key-slot 78 on the lever 74 or on lever 73. The operation of my improved device is as follows: Assuming that the door 6 closes the entrance, a passenger passes by the railing' 5 after paying his fare to the conductor, and swings the door on the pivot'l3until the door is parallel with the side wall of the car, that is, at right angles to the position which it occupies when closing the entrance. Meanwhile the door 7 has swung around behind the passenger and closedthe entrance without leaving suiiicient space for two passengers to get between the doors 6 and 7.
When the door 6 is in the last position above described, its guide 11 is also parallel with the longitudinal axis of thecar and the door itself impinges against the ,rod 65 thereby depressing it in 1ts bracket 64. The depression of the rod 65 lowers its plate 67 and frees-the rod 61 so that it can move in the direction of its length. as it does under the action of the spring-pressed. bolt 42 thereby raising the bolt 56 and permitting the stop 55 to pass under said bolt. At the same time the action of the spring-pressed bolt. 42 causes the casting 45 to move toward the plates 67, that is to the left in the position shown in Figs. 6 and7, whereby the valve 47 is immediatelyreversed thereby "causing the piston 27 to move positively underair pressure and throwing the valve under the action of both airpressure and the action of the spring-pressed bolt 42 and the piston rod-27 continues its movement to'the As soonas the stop 55 has passed bolt downward thereby securing the valve 47 against. movement. 31 has been noperative although moved,
but the lever 3i) which is connected to the pusher 75 by the lever 74 has been operated, and has shoved'the door 6 until it has gone through the pivot 13 and its spring-pressed bolt 23 has entered the perforation 22 in -'-the slide 11 as shown in Fig.2. WVh en the bolt 66 isdepressed the plates 68 are cor- Mean while the lever recti-on in whichthe bolt 42 shifts the bar whereby the bolt 56 is again raised in the manner above described and the piston rod 27 is shifted sutfic-iently to shift the valve in the opposite direction and the lever 31 swings idly back and the lever 73 remains as shown in Fig.2 and then the mechanism is thrown into the position indicated in Fig.
2 when the mechanism is ready for the next passenger. 7
This description sets forth how a door a may be provided for pay as you enter cars which operates either at the entrance or exit end of the car, as desired.
