Abstract

648,146. Frame constructions. THOMPSON BROS. (BILSTON), Ltd., and HAND, K. Dec. 3, 1948, No. 31292. [Classes 79 (iii) and 79 (iv)] The frame of a tanker is constituted by two longitudinal tubes of relatively large diameter rigidly coupled together and supporting the tank. Such tubes may be used for carrying liquid additionally to the tank. Figs. 1 and 2 show the complete tanker and the tubular frame with tank in side elevation, Fig. 3 is a section on A-A and Fig. 4 on B-B of Fig. 2. The frame comprises a pair of tubular members 2 whose forward ends 6 are swaged in to a tapering rectangular section to carry the engine 7, gearbox 8 and spring mounting brackets 9, and whose rear ends are formed into a hollow T section, Fig. 4. The T section is formed by removing a strip from along the bottom of each tube, bending the sides upwardly and again inwardly upon themselves to form and reinforce the top of the T, then welding in a deep channel member 10 to form the leg of the T. The two tubes are secured together by channel members 3 and gussets 4, and the tank 1 is secured to the assembly by gussets 5. The inner sides of the tubular members 3 are recessed at 16 to accomodate the propeller shaft, and are provided with internal stiffening plates 17 to relieve the strain where their cross section changes. The whole of the hollow frame members may be used for carrying liquid, but preferably only the portions of large diameter are so used, the ends of which are sealed off by plates 18. The tank 1 and frame members 2 are covered by a cowling 21 which may extend forwardly to the driver's cabin to enclose a space 20 to house hoses and other equipment.
