UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
STEPHEN F. ROBERTSON, OF ROCKFORD, ILLINOIS.
IMPROVEMENT IN END-GATES FOR WAGONS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 139,974, dated J unc 17, 1873; application filed October 19, 1872.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, STEPHEN F. ROBERT- SON, of Rockford, in the county of Winnebago and State of Illinois, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Wagon-Box, of which the following is a specification Figure 1 represents a part of the rear end of a wagon-box to which my improvement has been applied. Fig. 2 is a detail horizontal section of the same, taken through the line :0 w, Fig.1.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
My invention has for itsobject to improve the construction of wagon-boxes so as to make them stronger and more durable, and at the same time more convenient in use; and it consists in the combination of partsas hereinafter described.
A represents a side board, B an end board, and O the bottom board, of a wagon-box. To the inner surface of the side boards A at their ends is attached a plate, D, of malleable iron, which is cast with two flanges upon its outer side to form a groove to receive the end of the end board B. Upon the lower end of the plate D is cast a bolt, al which passes down through the bottom board 0 and through the cross-bar placed beneath said bottom boards, and has a hand or lever-nut screwed upon it. Upon the outer flange of the plate D, near its upper end, is formed an eye, (1 to receive the hook e-cast upon the malleable iron cleat E attached to the end board B, and which may be made light and at the same time strong by having a flange or rib cast upon it. F is a bolt attached to the end board B, and which passes down through the bottom board 0 and the cross-bar, and has a hand or lever nut screwed upon its lower end.
By this construction the parts of the wagonbox will be much more firmly held together than when the ordinary wooden cleats and
