Description: |
| Abstract:
My invention relates to certain improvements in road-engines, designed to improve the construction and operation of these devices. The principal features of improvement consist in the structure of the frame-work and means for hanging the boiler therein to compensate for expansion; in the means for connecting the engine and the frame so as to avoid working-strain on the boiler-sheets; in the construction and arrangement of the front truck, and in the means for guiding the engine.
Claim:
The side sills, A A, made longer than the boiler, and combined with the same by strap or straps C and a single rigid connection, a, and extending in rear of the boiler. |
