Dem Hors'n,
' LosoH, a citizen of the United States, residing at Schuylkill Haven, in the county of Schuylkill and State of Pennsylvania, have in- ,vented a new and useful Dump Holst, of which the following is a specificatlon.
This invention provides means for raising the forward end of a' motor' truckibody to any desired degree within its limit of action, for the purpose of unloading, and
or lower said body to The object of theinvention'is provide a hoist of this character which is simple, in construction, reliable in operation, cheap to manufacture, and readily a pli b totally, of the motor trucksnow in use, 1
With these'ends' ;in]view the invention residesin the combination-and arrangement of parts and in the details of construction hereinafter described and claimed, it being understood that, within the scope of what is claimed, changes in'th'e precise embodiment of the inv'e'ntionshown can be made without departing from the spirit of the invention. In the accompanying drawings the preferred form of the invention has been shown.
In said drawings v a Figure l is a side elevation of a sl ding geartransmission, of known 1nake,'and hence needing no. particular description, showing the manner of connection therewith for the purpose of securing-tl1e power to operate thehoistl a i igure 2 is a sideyiewofthe hoist with some parts shown section and some in elevation.
Figure 3 is a partial transverse view showing the operative relation and connections between certain of the parts. V

Figure 5 is an enlarged section on line 5-5, Figure 3.
Referring to the figures by characters of reference 1 designates the transmission gear casing, which for the purpose of the present invention has a small portion thereof, re moved forming an aperture 2 so as to allow engagement and disengagement of the gear 3 mounted exterior to the main casing with one of the transmission gears, and pref-.
