IMPROVEMENT IN APPARATUS FOR MOVING AND ROLLING HOGSHEADS AND HEAVY BARRELS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 136,486, dated March 4, 1873.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, FRANCIS O. J. BURR, of Brewer, in the county of Penobscot and State of Maine, have made a new and useful Invention for Moving or Rolling Hogsheads or Heavy Barrels; and do hereby declare the same to be fully described in the following specification and represented in the accompanying drawing, in which- Figure 1 is a perspective view of the apparatus applied to a hogshead. Fig. 2 is a top View, and Fig. 3 a front elevation, of the operative lever, its claws, and their bearingarnis. Fig. 4 is a perspective view of the adjustable gravitating trig or chock, all of which I have hereinafter described. I The purpose of the lever and its adjuncts is to enable a person to roll the hogshea-d along in one direction, the gravitating-trig being to estop it from rolling or falling back. The invention is particularly useful for rolling hogsheads up skids or inclined planes.
In the drawing, A denotes a lever provided at its inner end with a cross-head or hearing, a, to rest upon the barrel B. To this lever, at a suitable distance from the cross-head, two arms, 0 G, are jointed, each of them at its outer end being hooked, and each hook I) being provided with a projection or bearing, 0, all as represented. To each hook there is pivoted a claw or extra hook, at, to grasp the barrel at the end of the staves, in manner as shown in Fig. 1, the projection e resting against the curved surface of the barrel, so as to preserve the claw in its due relation with the stave, and prevent it from doing injury thereto. The trig or chock consists of a heavy bar, E, which may be of wood or other suitable material, and a curved yoke, F, extended from the middle of the bar E, and curved so as to hook loosely upon the barrel. This yoke F I usually construct of two parts or rods, 0 f, each going through the other at one end thereof, or the two being applied together so that one can slide on the other in a manner to either lengthen or shorten the yoke to adapt it to a barrel or hogshead, as may be required, it, when in use, being applied as shown in Fig. 1. By laying hold of the longer arm of the lever and raising it, the barrel will be grasped by the claws, and the shorter arm or its cross-head will be borne against the barrel, the whole serving to roll the barrel along. The trig or chock, by being hooked upon the barrel, will gravitate or fall, or keep its position on the ground as the barrel may be rolled along, and will move along with it, and, being always in rear of it, will estop it from moving or rolling back while the lever may be in the act of being depressed preparatory for another movement of the barrel. The cross-head of the lever has or may have short teeth or spurs projecting from its lower surface, it being peculiarly useful for enabling a person, by means of the lever, to turn a barrel more or less laterally, in order to insure its being moved in the right direction.
I claim 1. The lever A, its hooked arms 0 O, and claws (l (1, combined and arranged as and for the purpose substantially as described.
2. The lever A, its cross-head a, hooked arms 0 O, and clawsd (I, combined and arranged as explained and shown.
3. The trig or chock, composed of the barE and the yoke F, whether the latter be made of one entire rod or of two applied together, substantially as explained.
4. The arrangement and combination of the projection c with the lever A, the hooked arms 0 U, and the claws (Z 01 thereof.
FRANCIS O. J. BURB.
