STAKEHOLDER.
Application flled :nu a, 1924. Serial as. 723,813.
ful Improvements in Stakeholders, of
the following is a specification. p y Mypresent invention pertains to vehicle bodies suchas are equipped for the holding offs'takes.
One object of the invention is the provision of an efficient lock calculated to pre ventfcasua-l movement, rattling and loss of astake.
Anotherobject is the provision of astake holder thatisnot liable to be affected swelling of wood in wet Weather.
Another object is theprovision of a stake holder of such character that friction or frictional contact will not render diflicult the removal of a-stake. g i
' Another object isthe provison of astake holder of such characterthat the stakes may be channeliromangle iron or wood. Another objectis the provision ofa stake holder construction whereby a platform can be made standard to receive invidual stakes, stake sections, "and-embrace panels and tops.
Another object is the provision oftimproved means for looking a stake ina holder. Other objects and practical advantages of the invention will be fully understood from the following description and claims when 'the'same are read in connection with the drawings, accompanying and forming-part of this specification, in which Figure 1 is a vertical section oftheopre ferred embodiment of my invention taken in the plane indicated by the line 1+1 of 1 Figure 4. r r Figure 2 s a broken exterior elevation Figure'3 is an enlarged detail vertical section takenin a plane parallel to that of Figure 1.
- Figure 4 is a top plan viewof the preferred embodiment. y y Figure 5 is an end elevation of said embodiment- "Figure 6 is a detail angle metallic member which constitu'tes'an important part of my invention; a
by the said section 1 9 being-connected perspective of the Figures 7, 8 and 9 are views of a modification hereinafter explicitly referred to.
slmilarj numerals designate corresponding parts in Figures 1 to 6 to which, refer ence will first be made. k
In accordance with my inventlon' cross beamsl are arranged under'th'e floor 2 of a vehicle body, and an angle iron '3-and a metallic. stra 4 are extended throughout the length 0 the body, the strap 4 being spaced outwardly fromthei vertical portion of the iron 3 and being arranged-in parallelismwithsaidvertical portion "for the interposition "of wooden sections 5, the said wooden-sectionsifi being connected to the angle-iron 3 and the strap 4 by bolts 6, and
the angleiron 3 and the beams 1 and floor2 V beingconnected together by bolts? on which arenuts8. i
Arranged alongside the beam 1 illustrated andunder the floor 2 is a wooden section 9,
to the anglen-on 3 by bolt 10 and nut 11 andbeing also connected to the floor 2 by a wood-screw 12.
It will alsobe noted by particular reference to Figure 1 that the bolt 10'and the screw 12 serve for the additional connection of the metallic angle member 13, the horizontal portion of said 'member being disposed under the wooden section 9. The outer end of the horizontal arm ofthe member 13 is bifurcated as designated by; 14, and theupright-armor the .said'angle member is'provided with sidewalls 15 isposed at opposite sides ofthe said bifurcation and is also provided with an uprightloop 16, the sides of the said loop 16 be ng integral with the side walls 15 as illustrated. A space 17 is afforded between confronting'endsof the wood sections'5, and in the said space rests the said upright loop 16.
outer side a'teat 2O on which is arranged one end of a coilspring 21. 1' The opposite and outer end of'the said coil spring21 receives a projection 22 on a shaft 23 carried by and" extending betweent e side'portions of the upright loop 16. fl
Pivotally mounted or the shaft23 is a lever 24 with a hook 25 and connected by a a vEZ G-with the bar .19. *When the lever 2 1 is in the position shown in Figure 3 the bar 19 will manifestly be retained in the position shown in Figure 3. hen, however, the lever Qt is swung downwardly into the position shown in Figure "1-, thespring 21 will operate to yieldingly maintain the bar 19 in the position shownin so as to enable the' s'aid bar 19 to opeiate after the manner of a latch to hold against upward movement of stake 30, tne'said stake extending down in thespaee;17 and bearing at its lower end on the horizontal arm of the angle member 13- as clearly shown in Figures 1 and 3. I pref-er'to, employ a stake -30 of channel form as illustrated, though I do not desire ,to be understood as confining myself to a channel form stake; and Ialso, prefer. to providerthe :metallio stake 30 with. a wooden portion 31 connected by bolts -32 to the stake, but it is. manifest that the said 'wooden portion and its conneetions may be altogether omitted without affecting my invention. It willbe readily: noted that the stake 3'0 receives between its side Walls '33 the upstanding portion of the angle member-.13, and it will also be observed that the stake30 isapmvided at 1O with an opening; to receive the lower end of the latch bar 19, the portion'ofthe stake 30 below the opening 40 being preferable, though not necessarily, reenforced as designated by 11 tov prolong;theusefulness of the portion ofth'efstake that is engaged by the latch bar 19 after the manner shown in;. Figure ,1.
Carried-at the inner side of the stake 30 and connected ,to the stake by bolts or other appropriate means is a hook-like metallic member .51 that {1S adapted when the stake 30 is moved downwardly into the space 17 to, engage the upper edge of the angle-iron 3 sofas tO -Operate with the said angle-iron in preventing outward deflectionof thestake. L V 1 In the practical use of ;my' ;i-mproven1ent it is simply necessary to socket the lower end of the stake in the space '17 and so that the lower end of the stake bearsjo'n the horizontal arm of the angle in'embe'r 13, and so that the member '51 hooks over the angle-iron 3 and to then move thewle'ver 2 1 from the position shown in Figure '3 to that shown in Figure 1, whereby the latch bar 19 will be caused to engage the stake 7-30 and strongly and securely lock the stake so that it isheld against casual upward movement and i s also held against rocking. In this connection it will be appreciated that; the placing ofth'e stake does 'not involve frietional wear of'any part of thefconstiuction;
and it will also be appreciated *that the parts are not liableyto be gaifectediby theswelling of wood in wet' weather. When it isdeslred to remove the stake it "is slmply necessary to move the lever 24 from the position shown nails: and that pivoted to the said up- ;right arm15f is a swinging bar 19 having a bifurcated end portion 20 which straddles the upper portion of the ar1 n 15".pInterposed between the arm 15? and the swinging bar 19 is a spring 21*, attached to the arm 1 n p o l yi nne t t9 th S n bar 19 is a, bail 26* whielrstraddles thenpjr ght a m 1 helps. ou der 3. their/0'11 as illustrated. Pivoted on the bight of the bai 2 and p o lfb ek Qifi upright .aring l5 is alev er 24f of cam,,gy e, the

Mani'festly the constructionshown in Figures 7, 8 and 9 is asimplificationof that shown in Figures 1 to 6, and at the same time is ng and dt rab a dap b operated with facility, and therefore Iprefer ,toemploy the construction shown in Figure 7, 8; and 9 over that shown 'i-nFigures 1 to 6. ,H ing d se i ed y. v i w atl 'clairn ande desire to secure by Letters-Patt) v ,1 l' i h,
