Description: |
| Abstract:
Our invention has for its object to provide improved means for locking stationary, while in operation, the transporting-wheels of thrashing-machines, horse-powers, baling-presses, portable engines, and other portable machines.
Claim:
As a means for locking the transporting-wheels of thrashing-machines and other portable machines and engines, a locking contrivance consisting of beams extending across and under the lower timbers or sills of the machine, having brake-shoes for cooperating with the wheels, in combination with bolts extending diagonally from the beams to the frame of the machine, with means applied to said bolts for forcing the beams up against the timbers or sills of the machine, and their shoes upon the periphery of the wheels. so as to strengthen and support the frame of the machine and transfer a proportion of the weight to the rims of the wheels, substantially as described. The combination, with the machine or engine and its transporting-wheels, of the brake-beams and their shoes, the clamping-bolts passed diagonally from the beams and connected at one end to the frame of the machine or engine, and provided at the opposite end with nuts for clamping the beams up against the frame, and the shoes onto the wheel-rims. |
