WILLIAM H. WILLIAMS, 0F STATESBORO, GEORGIA.
LIFTING DEVICE.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, VVTLLIAM H. VILLTAMS, a citizen of the United States, residing at Statesboro, in the county of Bulloch and State of Georgia, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Lifting Devices; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
My invention relates to new and useful improvements in lifting devices and the object thereof is to provide a device whereby a log or beam of wood or any other object may be readily secured to a wagon to be transported.
Other objects and advantages of my invention will be hereinafter made clearly apparent in the specification and pointed out in the claim.
In the accompanying drawings I have shown the preferred form which my invention may take.
In said drawings, Figure 1 is an elevation, showing my improved lifting device as applied to use, and Fig. 2 is a top plan View thereof,
Referring to the drawings, in which similar reference numerals designate corresponding parts throughout the several views, 1 is a beam which constitutes the lever of my improved lifting device. A plate 2 having a loop 3 at one end and an outwardly extending foot 4 at its opposite end is secured to one side of the lever 1 so that the loop 3 will be positioned at one end thereof. The plate 2 is also formed with a substantially right angled extension 5, which extends across the end of said lever and a plate 6, which engages the opposite side of said lever. Bolts 7 extend through the end of the beam and the plates 2 and 6 and. rigidly hold the plates in engagement with the end of the lever. The opposite end of the lever is provided with the hook 8, secured in place by means of bolts 9 or any other desired manner for a purpose hereinafter more clearly set forth.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed November 9, 1911.
Patented May 14, 1912.
Serial No. 659,431.
When it is desired to transport a log, beam, or other object, a chain is passed therearound, extended through the loop 3 and secured to form a sling. A wagon or truck is then disposed over the log and the plate 2 positioned over the axle thereof with the foot 4 on the far side of the axle, in the manner clearly shown in Fig. 1. The other end of the lever is then depressed and the log raised from the ground. A chain 10, secured to the forward end of the wagon, is then engaged with the hook 8 to hold the lever in this down position.
From the foregoing description it will be seen that I have provided a lifting device so constructed that a chain or rope may be readily secured thereto, and by means of which a log, beam or other heavy object, may be readily elevated from the ground and secured to a wagon or truck, whereby the same may be transported. It will further readily be seen that by providing the plate 2 with the foot 4, the lever will be prevented from slipping across the axle, as would be the case with an ordinary beam lever.
What I claim as new is:
In a device of the class described, the combination with a vehicle; of a beam, a plate secured upon one side of the beam and at one end thereof, and positioned over the rear axle of said vehicle, the inner end of said plate being bent outwardly at right angles to the beam to form a foot, a depending loop formed in the opposite end of said plate, a right angled extension integral with said plate and secured over the end of the beam, and an anchoring hook secured to the opposite end of said beam for securing the beam in adjusted posit-ion to the forward end of the vehicle.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
WILLIAM H. WILLIAMS.
