Description: |
| Abstract:
The primary object of this invention is to reduce the strain on reaches and obviate the end thrust on the pivots of the two centrally pivoted axles of a dump-wagon, and so arrange the reaches that they will not interfere with the free discharge of the contents of the wagon.
Claim:
A wagon having, in combination, two pivoted axles and carrying wheels thereon, a body, flexible cross reaches connected to the two axles and extended in substantial parallelism with the sides of said body and transversely thereof at a point near one of the axles, such flexible reaches being connected to both axles at points on opposite sides of the pivots thereof, and guides for the reaches for directing the latter on substantially straight lines adjacent to the axles. |
