Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Nov. 18, 1913.
Application filed October 14, 1912. Serial No. 725,658.
To all u-lz 0m it may concern.
Be it known that I, FRANK HORNBY, a subject of the King of Great Britain, residing at Liverpool, in the county of Lancaster, England, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Perforated Plates, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to improved elements, and combinations of such elements with other elements or parts, to be used in the construction of toys or working models of machiner structures, or similar mechanisms. In t e making. up of such models or toys according to the resent system from perforated elements em odying also the use of gear wheels, pulleys, spindles and the like machine parts, and in which various members of the machine are adapted to be assembled together and mounted in the perforated elements and the latter connected by means of bolts and nuts, it has been found desirable in order toproduce greater rigidity in the structures and also to avoid the undue multiplicity of small strengthening strips, to provide perforated flanged plates and anglefbrackets, the incorporation of which in the model or structure shall tend to increasefthe rigidity thereof, and at the same time simplify the construction.
The present invention relates to certain forms of perforated sheet metalelements for use as aforesaid. In all the forms, the plates having perforated flanges, preferably integral, are an essential feature of the invention.
The invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which some of the many practical uses to which the invention may be put are also illustrated.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of a sectonshaped plate. Fig. 2 is a plan view of'the same. Fig. 3 is a sectional view of Fig. 2 on line X X looking in the direction of the arrow. Fig. 4 is a perspective view of a rectangular shaped plate. Figs. 5 and 6 are perspective views of perforated brackets employed in connection with the plates shown in Fi s. 1, 2, 3 and 4. Fig. 7 is a side view of t e clip seen in Fig. 15. Fig. 8 is an end view of the same. Figs. 9, 10,11, 12, 13, 14 and 15 are views showing various combinations of the plates of Figs. 1 and 4 with other elements in structures made up from such parts.
The sector plate 1, Fig. 1, 1s OOnBtlnctBd as shown of sheet metal with the longer edges 2 relatively inclined at any desired angle, and the shorter edges 3 and 4 referably slightly curved as shown and witout further series of transverse perforations 3" and t respectively. These perforations in the plate are circular. In each edge flange 5 is a series of perforations 5, which may be circular, but are preferably elongated holes, as indicated, so as to provide for a slight adjustment of the connecting bolts therein as hereinafter described. All the holes in the table and flanges of the plate are pitched at equal distances apart. The plate may be put to a variety of uses in the construction of models, such as to form the table of a hand truck or barrow, etc., as will be described fartheron.
In Fig. 4 is illustrated a rectangular shape of plate 7 in the body or table 7 of which there are formed longitudinal and transverse series of perforations 8 covering the whole surface of the table, the longitudinal edges 9 of this plate being also provided -Wltll flanges 10, in which are formed'iserie's of holes 11 the remainingedges 12 and 13 h emg without flanges. rectangular form of plate including the flanges may be made circular, and as before are pitched at equal distance apart, but it is obvious that the holes may be elongated to aliow for adjustment.
In order that the practicability of my invention may be readily understood 1. will describe the convenient manner in which the various complete devices of Figs. 9 to 15 inclusive are put together.
y The truck seen in Fig. 9 comprises the rectangular shaped plate 7 of Fig. 4 to the flanges IQ of which are secured legslt (made of brackets 14 seen in Fig. 5) by means of bolts 15 passing through apertures 11 and 16 in said flange and leg res eotively. A pair of wheels 17 are mounte on an axle 18 in turn passing throu h alined openings 11 at the forward end of t eflanggs 10. The wheels 17 are secured upon t e shaft by means of cotter pins, but if desired the cotter pins ma be dispensed with and the clip 20 (Figs. 8 and-15) substituted- All the holes in this with flanges at an angle to said cal elements, and means engaging perforations in said other element or elements and saicll1 flanged plate for fastening the parts tot er.
10. The combination, in a workin model, toy or the like, of a flanged metalfi comprising a. plate or main bodg ortion od y portion along two opposite edges thereof, said flanges having therein a series of erforations extending in the direction of t e body portion of the plate, one or a plurality of 0 plate other perforated mechanical elements, the,
rforations in said element or elements and V m the flanges being equally pitched, and 15 means engaging perforations in said element or elements and said flanged plate for fastening the parts together.
In testimon whereof I affix my signature in presence 0 two witnesses.
