<p>An axle adaptor for providing a temporary replacement axle spindle on an axle from which the original spindle has fractured comprises a replacement spindle welded at its inner end to a cup defining an inwardly facing recess for receiving the end of the original axle shaft. A bracing angle member is secured externally to the cup and extends inwardly. A shaft-clamping shackle effectively comprising a U bolt is provided toward the inner end of the angle member for firmly clamping the adaptor to the existing axle shaft. Radially extending clamping bolts usefully extend through the wall of the cup to provide additional clamping action.</p> |
