X201 Da.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}3/HP 12.7.33. Bensport Axle Control. -------------------- Herewith is N. Sch. 3770 showing a modification to the bushes in the triangular forgings, to prevent them turning round under the end thrust. This is intended as a temporary scheme to utilize present forgings. N. Sch. 3769, also herewith, is intended as a further improvement, in which the surfaces taking the end thrust are held in continuous contact by a spring load. These surfaces have also been increased compared with the existing surfaces. Da.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
