Description

UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
GEORGE F. KNIGHT, OF CARROLL, OHIO, ASSIGNOR TO HIMSELF AND JOHN W. WILLSON, OF SAME PLACE.
.IMPROVEMENT IN BUGGV-TOPS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 184,391, dated November 14, 1876; application filed September 6, 1876.
tudinal sectional elevation.
'The invention will first be described in connection with the drawing, and then pointed out in the claim.
A represents the body of vehicle, B'the seat, and (l the top. The latter is connected with seat by the front braces D D and rear braces E E. The former are rigid throughout their whole length, and each is provided with a rest, d, that bears, when thetop is down, upon the side projection fat the top of standards F F. These front braces D are. also provided with the clamping-bolts G, to which the top 0 is pivoted, while they are themselves pivoted on the seat-bolts H. The rearbraces Evare bi-branched and rigidly attachedat the top by bolts G pivoted toseat-bolts H and jointed at E Over this joint works a sliding sleeve, E By this construction the top can be quickly manipulated and securely held either up or down.
The top Gis made of a continuous sheet of metal bent or formed by dies into the shape required, and braced by an internal frame, J, to which it is bolted by the six brace-bolts G. I are binders or re-enforcing strips on the outside edge of top, and secured by the same bolts G and nuts G. These galvanized metallic covers are dressed in the usual manner,
, and may be made of sheet-iron or thin sheet metal.
The top is first trimmed, and then the frame boiled on, thus greatly facilitating the labor of. trimming, whilethe construction is cheaper and more durable.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new is The vehicle-top O pivoted to the front rigid braces D, and fixedly attached to rear braces E, thus allowing the top to fall, as shown, and
to be rigidly connected with seat-frame, asf
specified.
The above specification of my invention signed by me this 25th day of August, A. D.
GEORGE F. KNIGHT.
