UNITED STATES PATENT Joan wnnnn, or retain, onio,
1,542,429 OFFICE.
OF TOLEDO, OHIO, A CORPOMTIONIOF OHIO;
wvmm WAGON BODY.
Application filed November To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, JOHN Vitamin, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Toledo, in the county of Lucas and State of Ohio, have invented a new and useful Juvenile Wagon Body, which invention is fully set forth in the following specification.
This invention relates to juvenile wagon bodies of the detachable'platform and body wall type, and particularly to the construction of the wall portion of such bodies.
Bodies of this class usually comprise a sheet metal platform member and a sheet metal body or side wall member of rectangular form for seating on or around the edge of the platform, the two members being secured together in a manner to facilitate detachment thereof, so that the bodies may be used either with or without the side wall part, as may be desirechand also to enable the separate members of a .body to be c0mpaotly packed with other parts of a wagon for shipment or storage' The primary object of the. invention is the provision of a strong and durable body wall member for a Wagon box of the class described, which will stand hard'usage without springing or getting out of shape. 7
A. further object of the invention is the provision of simple and efiicient-means for joining the ends of single or a plurality of side wall sections together, whereby not only.
an eflicient but a strong and durable joint is secured and the side wall is otherwise strengthened. v
The invention is fully described in the following specification, and while in its broader aspect it is capable of embodiment in different forms, a preferred embodiment thereof is illustrated in drawings, in which,-
Figure 1 is'a perspective view of a wagon boxrbody embodying the invention, with a part broken away. Fig. 2 is an enlarged fragmentary perspective view' of a joint the accompanying 'portion of the side wall of the body. Fig.
3 isa top edge view thereof, with a part broken away, and Fig. 4 is a fragmentary perspective view of adifi'erent body embodying the invention, and with a part broken away.
Referring to the drawings, 1 designates the platformvmember of a juvenilewagon 3, 1924. Serial No. 747,414
body, and 2 the side or body wall member thereof, both of which, or at least the body wall member, are composed of sheet metal. In former cases, the platform is provided around its edge with a groove or recess for the lower edge of the sidewall to seat in, and in othercases the body wall interengages in other ways in a detachable manner with the platform edge.
The body wall 2 is composed of one or more sheet metal pieces joined together at their meeting ends to conform to the shape and size of the platform, the pieces preferably being two in number i and of U- shape longitudinally thereof with the joints formed by their meeting ends falling centrally in the ends of the body wall. The
sheet metal .of the body wall is formed with Y a roll 3 around, its top edge to give strength and rigidity thereto and to improve its apare preferably joined by telescoping the respective. edge rolls 3 and 4 and side-lap ing /the intermediate end portions of the meta for a short distance back from the joining ends, as shown in the drawings. The joined portions are then rigidlysecured together by rivets 7, electric welding, or in any other suitable manner. This provides a joint which is simple to make and at the same timeis exceedingly strong and rigid. The inner telescoping member of a pair is preferably reduced in size, as shown in Fig. 3, to facilitate joining.
' It is preferable in practice to provide the body wall with a joint of this character centrally in each end, as the making of the body wall in two parts not only simplifies manufacture but the location of the points of jointure in this manner are found to add very materially to. the strength and rigidity of the body wall, It is found in practice that if a body wall 2 with joints ASBIGNOR TO THE AMERICAN NATIONAL COMP ANY,
of the class described falling in the ends intermediate its ends such side or the end rtions of thebody wall, whereas if a ho y wall of the construction, except thatthe oints are eliminated from the ends, is stood on in the same manner, the ends will sprmlg outward and collapse and the top side wa w1ll bow inward. It is, therefore, evident that the provision of the end joints adds materially to the strength-of the body wall.
' considerable im .This added strength might not be of any rtance if the body wall were permanen y "attached to the P atform, but with a wagtlm body of the class described where t e body wall is detached from the platform both for sh1 pmg and at the will of the child or chil ren using the same, it is of considerable importance. Such body walls usually receive rough usage. due to their being thrown around and .roughly handled when not in use on the we 11. It is not infrequentthat a body wafi when not in use on a wagon is turned up on its edge and used by the children and 4 sometimes by older persons as a seat, and it must, therefore, be made strong 11]. prder to withstand such usage and mamtam its shape so that it can be readily applied to latform without necessitating sprmgthe ing 1t back into shape to fit the platform.
' I wish it understood that my invention is not limited to any specific construction,
arran ment or form of the parts, as it is capab e of numerous modifications andchanges without departing from. the spirit oftheclaims. Having thus described my invention,
on the other side what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. A juvenile wagon body having a detachable sheet meta side wall formed with upper and lower edge rolls and composed o a lurality of sections secured together in en joining relation with the registering rolls of adjoining ends telescoping, and wit the intermediate portions of the ends lapsing each other, and with one of said joints 'sposed centrally in each end portion of the sidewall, and means for securin the joined end portions of the body we sections to then 2. A uvenile bod wall having a detachlower edge rolls and divided into two U- shaped sections joined together at theirmeeting ends with the points of jointure dis-' posed in the end portions'of the body wall and formed by telescoping the registering ends of the rolls and lapping the registering end portions of the sections intermediate the rolls, and means for securing the joined; ends of the sections together.
