Nl'l it'llll LOUIS L. FBE'UND, 6;? SPOKANE, WASHINGTON.
CARRIER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Apr. 12, 1921.
Application filed April. 19, 1920. Serial No. 375,028.
To all whom it may concern:
known that l, Louis IJ. Francis), a citizen of the United States, residing at tripokane, in Spokane county and State oi? ll ashington, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Carriers, off which the :tollowing is a specification.
My present invention relates to an improved carrier designed especially for the purpose of lifting and transporting stoves, rangcsand similarappliances, the device being capable of use with other articles, but particularly applicable for lifting and rolling stoves, ranges and such appliances over floor coverings. To this end the invention contemplates a carrier made up of a plurality of units of identical construction which may be attached to a stove and form a vehicle with wheels or casters for transportation, and at the same time the plurality of devices attached to the stove are adapted for lifting means to elevate the load from the ground and be carried by two or four men.
The invention consists in certain novel combinations and arrangements of these unitary structures as will be hereinafter more fully pointed out and claimed. 7
In the accompanying drawings 1 have illustrated one complete example of the physical embodiment of my invention constructed and arranged according to the best mode I have so far devised for the practical application of the principles of my invention.
Figure l. is a perspective View showing tour of the units applied and ready tor use in connection with a stove or range.
l 2 is a detail View, in pets active of one of the units of the device or earlier.
Fig. 3 is an enlarged detail View. partly in section, showing the lifting bar and con nections.
In the preferred form of the carrier as I illustrated in the drawings l have utilized a domestic range or stove indicated by letter S of which the base rim B and the top T are utilized or employed for attaching the units of the carrier, and in 1 four of these units are attached to the stove, a pair at each end, so that the load may be carried by two men or four men if desired.
The units are constructed and arranged in order that they may be attached or detached with facility, and when in place, are firmly and rigidly held to insure careful manipulation when carrying a load as indicated.
As before stated the units are identical in structure and may be applied in pairs at the ends or" the stove, or may be applied sin 'ly the ends of the stove, r other article to be l tted or conveyed, and one of the units is depicted in Figs. 2 and 3 in detail. Here the metallic post 1 is an upright member preferably of channel iron and provided with a caster 2, journaled in the bearin 3 provided therefor in the foot 4 or the piist, which is turned right angles to the bottom of the post to aiiord a bearing and support for the caster. The foot 4 is fashioned at its upper portion as a hook 5 adapted to ht under the base mm B of the stove as seen in Fig. 1 and the base, resting on these hooks tour points, is afforded a stable support tor the stove.
fit it point ust above the longitudinal center or toe post, an onset is provided at 6 to accommodate a forked hook 7, positioned at right angles to the post and designed to project horizontally therefrom and extend over the top or the store at 'l in Fig. l. The lids are removed in Fig. 1 so that the forked hooks may engage over the edge of the top of the stove as shown, and the hook is provided with a screw shank 8, passing through an elongated slot 9 the post and equipped with a screw handle 10 and nut 11, the former at the outer side of the post and the latter at the inner side of the post. husthe forked hooks may be adjusted vertically in the post, through the slot 9, to adapt the post to different heights of loads to be carried, and by means of the screwhandle l0 and nut ii the hook may be clamped securely in place, to form, together with the hook 5 at the lower end or the post, means "for rigidly attaching the post to thestove.
ll 'hen thus attached it will readily be apparent that the tour posts with their casters will form a practical and substantial carrier or conveyance for t ie stove, and it may be rolled or transported with. facility and convenience.
Each post is also equipped with means which the stove, or other article, may be manually lifted, and this lifting means comprises a pivoted handle or handle bar 12, hinged or pivoted on the pin or bolt 13 passed through the perforated ears id, located in the socket 15 at the head of the lifting handle. The ears are shown as in tegral with a slide block or plate 16 and pass through a slot 17 in the post in order that the coupledhandle and block or plate may be adjusted vertically with relation to the post to adapt the handle for use by a tall or short person. 7
When not in use the handle bar hangs, by gravity, in vertical position as indicated in Figs. 2 and 3, but when employed to lift a load the handle is swung to vertical position as indicated in dotted lines Fig. 3, and in this position, the cam edges 18 of the head of the handle, at the sides of the socket 15, are caused to frictionally engage the outer face of the post, at the sides of the slot 17 in the post. Thus, with the handle hanging in the position of Figs. 2 and 3, V
the handle and its slide block may be elevated with relation to the post, to the desired altitude, then by swinging the handle around to horizontal position, dotted. hnes Fig. 3, the handle and slide block are clamped to the post, ant the handle may be utilized to lift the load. ithen released the handle will fall to normal position, by its own weight.
In Fig. 1 it will be apparent that the location of the posts, two at the ends of the stove, avoids the'objectionable features frequently encountered whereby the narrow di mension or depth of the stove is increased to such a degree as to prevent the passage of the stove through a doorway, but in this over floors that might otherwise be marred by the casters. 7
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim is' r l. The combination in a carrier as described comprising a plurality of units, each unit including anupright, slotted post having a foot and a caster journaled therein, a hook fashioned at the top of the foot, a screw shank in the slotted post and an integral hook thereon, and means for clamping the shank to the post for the purpose described;
2. The combination in a device as described including a post and means thereon for attachment to a load to be lifted, of a pivoted handle on the post, and means op- ,erative when the handle is moved to lifting position whereby the handle and post are rigidly connected together.
3. The combination in a device as described having attaching means and comprising a slotted post, of a slide plate having a perforated ear passed through the slotted post, a handle pivoted in said ear, and a head on the handle to frictionally engage the post when the handle is lifted to operative position. 7
l. The combination with the slotted post having a hooked foot and a caster, an upper hook on the post, a slide plate having a perforated ear passedthro'ugh the slotted post, a handle pivoted in the'ear, and a head on the handle having a cam member to frictionally engage the post when the handle is swung to operative position.
in testimony whereof I afiix my signature.
LOUIS L. FREUND.
