HENRY H. BURNS, OF BATTLE CREEK, MICHIGAN.
LIFTING JACK.
Application filed September 28, 1921. Serial No. 503,719.
T aZZ w hom it may concern Be it known that I, HENRY H. BURNs, citizen of the United States, residing at Battle Creek, county of Calhoun, State of Michigan, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Lifting Jacks, and declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the same, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it pertains to make and use the same, reference'being had to the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification.
My invention relates to lifting jacks and an object of my improvements is to provide a ack primarily for raising the axle of an automobile and having an improved construction and mode of operation.
I accomplish this object in the apparatus shown in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure l is a side elevation of a jack embodying my invention.
Fig. 2 is a section on the line IIII of Fig. l.
Fig. 3 is a detail section on the line IIIIII of Fig. 1.
Fig. 4 is a side elevation looking at the opposite side to that shown in Fig. 1, the up per end of the lifter rod being broken away and a part being broken away to more plainly show a detail of construction.
Fig. 5 is a section on the line ,VV, Fig. 1, the upper end of the lifter rod being broken away.
Fig. 6 is a section on the line VI-VI, Fig. 4, some of the parts being partly broken away.
Fig. 7 is a detail view partly in section supporting link.
a indicates the base or pedestal of the jack; this is made up of two supplementary stampings from sheet metal cm, ay. Each of these parts consists of a flat portion to rest upon the ground, having vertical flanges 64 and a with a half socket portion a be tween these flanges. The two parts are united by rivets a a passing through the flanges a and a The material of which i the pedestal is composed is cut and bent inward at a a (Fig. 5) to form lugs extending into the socket a. T
b is a length of channel iron of a shape showing a modified construction of the leverand cross-section corresponding to the interior of the socket a This is placed in said socket, its lower edge resting upon a flange a.
c is a strip of metal adapted to fit over and close the otherwise open portion between the side flanges of the channel iron 6, its lower edge resting upon a lug a opposite to that upon which the web of the channel iron rests. a is a rivet passing transverselythrough the walls of the socket a through the web of the channel iron 5 and through the lower end of the plate 0, thus firmly holding the channel iron and plate in position and assisting to bind the two halves of the base together.
(Z is a strip of band iron passing around the upper ends of the channel iron 7) and plate 0 and having its ends held together by the rivet 6Z upper ends of said'channel iron and plate firmly together in their. relative positions. The ends of the band 03 are turned outward parallel to each other and form a securing lug hereinafter referred to.
b is a slot formed through the web of the channel iron ?2 centrally thereof and c is a corresponding slot through the plate 0 opposite the slot 5 e is a lifter-rod, or plunger,fitting and adapted to reciprocate within the tubular construction formed by the channel iron d and plate 0. The lifter rod 6 is provided with a bracket f at its upper end having seats 7, f at different levels upon which the axle engages.
6 indicates apertures formed transversely through the bar 6 opposite the slots 6 and 0 g is a metal strip pivoted at one end to the lug extending from the strap iron d. g is a second. strip of metal also pivotedto the lug extending from the strip d and extending downward bending toward the. strap g and being secured thereto towards its outer end. The metal strip g at its outer end is bent outward and backward to form the hook 9 g is a rivet passing through the outer ends of the metal strips 9 and g and through the backwardly turned portion of the latter strip.
h is a dog or pawl pivoted at one end to the lug extending from the strip d and being provided with a guide piece it at its outer end. 1
The band cl serves to secure the form the pedal 9' 7' is a cylindrical,pin, e I l tending laterally arm 7' opposite to that .cfornae'diinto thepedal from the end of the lever 9' The pin 7' isof a size andshape to fit i within the ,apertures e forinedthrough the glitter rod 6. i jiiindicate's semicircular grooves v JfQlLHBCl in the loweredgeo'i the lever arm y :at suitable-position to engage--the intermer-idiate portion of: the rivet 9 as hereinafter V described. .1 jft is a notch cut in the upperedge 01 the; lever arm at the .-.proper position. rilais ailever pivoted at httothe side of the .jaleveriarin y'flandsada ated to oscillate-in the biplane otr-saidaarins 7 Q ;-ex'ten'ds l to a positionibelowe the slot-j .zotheroend extendstoaa. position adjacent the 5Qpedal j- .-1, 7st, indicatexpins upon the sidev I ovof; the lever arInj-adaptedito limit-the'oscillating movement of the lever arm y'." flhelever harm ,j; is .adjusteda'to position by. placing its 7 spin jtwithinv an; aperture 6 said pin extenduingrthrongh the 'slot a? \and by a lateral movex'mentscoming.withinrthe upturned portion g Y of: the. link .9, ainotch y' jengaging over the crrivetwg withinatheiu-pturned.portionfof said dink.
