Specification of Letters Patent.
EGG-HANDLING DEVICE.
Patented Oct. 12, 1920.
Application filed. June 7, 1919. Serial No. 302,439.
1 0 all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JAMES H. PEARSON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Bloomfield, in the county of Greene and State of Indiana, have invented a new and useful Egg-Handling Device, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to egg handling devices and has for its'object the provision of an implement of this class that may be used to transfer a tray filled with eggs, together with the bottom therefor, without removing the eggs from the cells.
Vfith these and other objects which will appear as the description proceeds, my invention resides in the various features of construction, combination of elements, and arrangement of parts, as will be clearly understood from the description hereinafter appearing, taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, and the novel features of which will be pointed out in the claims at the end of this specification.
In the drawing Figure 1 is a plan View of the device shown in its relation to a carrier.
Fig. 2 is a sectional View taken on line 2 of Referring to the drawing, 1 indicates a tray or rack of egg carrying cells, such as is used in the transportation and storage of eggs, and 2 the usual card-board separation used as a bottom under each tray.
To a frame which in the present instance is represented as a ring 3 is secured a bail 4 provided with a handle 5; attached to the ring, on the under side thereof are secured a plurality of pins 6, each pin is reduced at its upper end to form a shoulder 7, the reduced portion is extended through the ring 3 and a nut 8 secures the pin in place.
The lower end of the pin 6 is reduced at a point short of itsend as shown at 9 to form a shoulder 10 and the extreme end of the pin is fashioned into a piercing point or barb 11.
In using the device, an operator places it over a tray of eggs with the pins in the position shown in big. 1 and forces the barbed,
end of the pins through the cardboard separator 2.
The pierced portions of cardboard will spring about the reduced portion 9 and rest on the shoulder 10, as clearly shown in Fig. 2, engagement thus made being suflicient to securely hold the weight of the eggs and tray; in fact it has been found in practice that the device will sustain approximately three times the weight of a tray filled with eggs.
To remove the device, pressure is exerted on the rack of eggs and the barbs withdrawn by lifting on the handle.
Eggs may be handled very rapidly and safely in this Way. l he bolted connection of the pins to the frame make it possible to readily replace a broken or damaged. pin with a new one.
The preferred embodiment of the invention has been shown and described, but it is to be understood that changes may be made in the device within the scope of the claims, without departing from, or sacrificing any of the advantages thereof.
lVhat is claimed is:
1. In a device of the class described, a frame, a plurality of pins secured to the frame,'the pins being provided with a reduced portion defining a shoulder and a piercing point, th shoulder and piercing point extending below the horizontal plane of the frame, and a bail attached to the frame.
2. In a device .of the class described, a frame, means attached to the frame for piercing and holding the bottom of an egg carrying cell, said means comprising relatively long pins'lying below the plane of the frame, and a handle attached to the frame.
3. In a device of the class described, a frame and a plurality of pins projecting downwardly from the frame, the pins being each provided with a piercing point and a reduced portion extending below the hori zontal plane of the frame, said points being adapted to pierce the bottom of a tray and suspend the same from the reduced portion.
4, In a device of the class described, a frame, a plurality of pins projecting downwardly from the frame the pins being each provided with a piercing barb adapted to be forced through the bottom of a tray to suspend the tray, said barbs extending below the horizontal plane of the frame, and a bail secured to the frame. 7
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own, I have hereto affixed my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
JAMES H. PEARSON.
