Cart with end tipping.

Fatentirt in the German Empire from April 14, 1885.

The box A of the cart shown in the accompanying drawing has lateral long trees D, with which it rests on the long trees E of the underframe provided with axis F. On the underside of the trees E , a shaft b is mounted, on which two clamping springs B are attached to hold the box in place. These springs have the form of two-legged coupling staples and are in the top center with an arm b ^l, Fig. 4, and provided a leg with a counterweight C "on the. Trapped Since the union springs on the common shaft b, the counterweight C can also be attached to this shaft itself.Attached to the trees E stop pins c ¹ and c ² limit the deflection of the throwing cramps.

When the box is tilted back, the staples B are pressed down by the appropriately bevelled ends of the long trees D; Finally, however, the staples, erected again by the counterweight, step over the protruding ends of E, - Fig. 1, and thereby hold the tilting box firmly on the underframe.

If the box is to be tipped down, the clamps on the arm b ^{l are turned} back and the trees D are released.

The long trees E are cut diagonally just above the axis F to facilitate tilting; this axis itself lies under the center of the box. The tilting takes place around the hinge G, the front leaf g of which is attached to the top of the rear end of the long trees E , so that the tilt axis lies on the upper edge of the bevels e, while the rear leaf g ^{l is} loosely and rotatably attached to the trees D attached hook g · ^{2 is} connected.

Since the pivot point of the hinge is somewhat in front of the center of the box, there is an overweight at the rear end when the load is evenly distributed, so that the box is overweight when the front end is released. whose ends of E begin to tilt by themselves. At first the box is lowered so low that the hinge leaf g ¹ comes to rest on the bevel e of the long trees E; then the box tilts around the lower edge of these bevels e respectively. the hook g ² further. The axis of rotation moves behind the center of the box, which slows down the tilting in an appropriate manner and prevents any bumps.

As soon as the box has poured out its contents, it tilts back by itself, since the upright end is now overweight as a result of the above-mentioned displacement of the axis of rotation. Here the axis of rotation jumps back to G, whereby the rear half of the box becomes overweight, so that the box again lies down gently on the long trees E without material, where it is fixed by the hold-up staples B.

On the long trees E , legs H protruding laterally to the rear are attached, which support stands h stiffened by rods J. In the upper ends of this stand h pins are attached to which the rear

Wall / the box is rotatably mounted. Rods K extend from the longitudinal walls of the box, the ends of which are rotatably connected to tabs Z attached to the lower part of the end wall I. If the box is now tipped down at the rear, the rods K assume such a position that the end wall / hanging on the pin i folds up, FIG. 2, and the box can thus pour out its contents completely freely.

The end wall is formed from two side frames L and O which can be folded up around a lower hinge N and which enclose the actual top board I between them. At the bottom of the inner frame L sit the tabs /; at the top it is provided with a head strip M , to which the tabs for the upper pivot pins i are attached, Fig. 3. In the fold of this strip M , the frame O is inserted with a corresponding edge strip.

. Both frame parts are held together by resilient locking pins Q., which in Corresponding holes of the frame are inserted.

These devices can also be used in two-axle vehicles.

Claims (4)

Patent claims: A cart with end tipping, in which the following devices can be used at the same time come: ι. The long trees of the underframe, which are sloping over the rear axle, are connected with hinges, the rear leaf of which is rotatably attached to the box, such as that when tilting down the axis of tilt from the upper edge of the bevels to the lower one and when the The reverse of the box skips from the lower edge to the upper edge. 2. The forward elongated long trees D in combination with the hold-up staples B, which are automatically pushed over by the counterweight C, to fix the box in a horizontal position. 3. The end wall, which consists of two frames L and O , which can be folded around a hinge and are held together by pin Q., with a board or sheet metal wall / enclosed between them. 4. The frame starting from the long trees E for the rotatable suspension of the end wall in connection with steering rods K, in such a way that the end wall folds up by itself when the box is tilted down. For this purpose ι sheet of drawings.
