UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JOHN G. HEI-IR, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
CARRIER.
Patented June 2, 1914. Serial No. 761,250.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN G. :HEI-IR, a citizen of the United States, and resident of the county of Queens, city and State of New ork, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Carriers, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, wherein Figure l is a perspective view of my improved self adjusting carrier in a nearly fully extended position. Fig. 2 is a similar view, showing the carrier adjusted to the size of the book set therein; and Fig. 3 is a detail of the front view of one end of the carrier, shown in the same position as in Fig. 2, showing the relative positions of the parts which they assume, when closing upon a book or similar object set in the carrier.
The object of my invention is to provide a carrier suitable for the carrying, or transferring of one, two, or more books or other articles, in which the latter are held in such position as they are set in, so that the abrading of the bindings of such books, or of the wrappings of other articles is prevented. With this object in view, I have devised the self adjusting carrier consisting, essentially, of two rigid side frames, a telescoping bottom, and of two end frames, composed of links so connected together and to the side frames and to the bail of the carrier, that by the act of lifting the carrier, or suspending it upon a trolley wire, after the books, or other articles to be carried therein have been set in, the rigid side frames of the carrier and pressed thereon, as shown in Fig. 2, whereby the books, or other articles in the carrier are, in a sense, gripped and held together, in the position, in which they were placed into the carrier, and are thus prevented from shifting or sliding. The construction of the bottom part of the carrier also serves to support the carrier, and the books or other articles contained therein, so that the carrier may be set upon a table and the bail swung to one side, as indicated in dotted lines in Fig. 2, and the carrier used as a stand for the books or other articles, set therein.
The carrier embodying my invention, may be constructed as follows: The rigid side frames are composed of girders a and a and of posts 6, b, 6 b and 5*, their number being determined according to the dimensions of the carrier, and of the bars 72., produced preferably by extending the posts and bend ing the extensions at a right angle underneath the girders a. The posts 6 and b at one side of the carrier are arranged alternating with the posts Z), a and b on the other side, whereby their extensions, forming the bars 71., composing half of the bottom of the carrier, pass between the bars it forming the other half of the bottom, to permit extension or contraction of the space between the rigid side frames, while providing an equally even and unyielding bottom for the carrier. The girders a and a and posts 6, 5, 6 etc. are rigidly secured together by rivets r. The contractible end frames of the carrier are composed of links 0 and e, and of the links 71, the links 6 and 0 being connected by pivots 79 to the ends of the girders a and a respectively, and by pivots p to the ends of the links 2'. The bail 0 of the carrier is also pivotally connected to the upper ends of the links 2', the pivots 79 serving for this purpose as well as for connecting the ends of links 6 thereto.
The parts of the carrier are preferably stamped of sheet metal, but may also be produced of other material, and may be enamcled or polished, for the sake of. a neater and more attractive appearance. A handle, like handle is for instance, may be set in, or made part of, the bail 0 for better convenience in using the carrier, the carrier having been designed particularly for library use, though equally serviceable for other purposes. In place of handle l: any suitable device for movably suspending the carrier on a trolley wire, or rail, etc., may be employed. Brackets, like those shown at g, may be affixed to one or both sides of the rigid frames, and will be found convenient for holding pamphlets, thin unbound books, or periodicals.
In a carrier of this construction, any number of books, from one to the fullness of its capacity, may be carried or held safely, and protected against sliding or shifting, this being one of the greatest detriments, resulting from transporting books in boxes or baskets as heretofore, whereby the bindings of such books are abraded and damaged.
1 claim as my invention:
1. A carrier comprising rigid side frames, a laterally extensible bottom, a bail, and end frames, composed of links, pivotally connected to the side frames, and to the hail; the links, composing the end frames of the carrier, forming toggle-joints for drawing together, or spreading apart, the rigid side frames by a pull, or a push, on the bail, substantially as herein shown and described.
2. A carrier comprising rigid side frames, bars secured thereto and extending alternately from one side frame toward the other, a bail, and end frames, composed of links, pivotally connected to the side frames,
10 and to the hail; the links, composing the end frames of the carrier, forming togglej oints for drawing together, or spreading apart, the rigid side frames by a pull, or a push, on the bail, substantially as herein shown and described.
