' BRICK Ciminna.
This invention relates to `improvements in brick carriers.
The primaryV object to provide a brick of the invention is carrier that may be manipulated easily with onehand for causing thev same to grip and release a series of bricks.
A further object provide a carrier' the 'invention is to Y for holding the, brick gripping members in a proper Arelation in respect to each be placed in a position other so that the carrier may for taking hold of a predetermined number of bricks, where# upon the said members becomev inoperative and the bricks may be gripped,`the said members again automatically becoming operative when the bricks are released froin the carrier so that a new load o'f bricks may be handled.
Other objects vand advantages of the invention will be apparent during the course of the following description.
InV the accompanying drawings forming` a part of thisv specification and in which like numerals are emp loyed to desi'ignate like parts throughout the same,
Figure 1 is a side elevational view of the brick carrier embodying this invention,
Figure 2 is a longitudinal sectional view taken upon lines II-II of Fig. 1,
Figure 3 is a transverse sectional view taken upon line III- III of Fig. 1, and
Figure 4 taken upon transverse sectional view line IVIV of Fig. 1.
In the drawing, wherein for the purpose of illustration is shown a preferred einbodiment of this invention,
the numeral 5 designates in its entirely the body portion of the carrier which consists of the telescopically arranged tubular members 6 and 7 which are of square formation in crosssection with the member 7 being received within the member 6.
For the purpose of maintaining these members 6 and 7 in their proper adjusted position, the member 7 has a series of apertures 8 formed in one side wall thereof which are adapted to be selectively arranged in aperture 9 the member 6.
outer face of this wall alignment with an formed in the adjacent wall of Suitably secured to the of the member 6 is a latch plate 10 having a stud 11 which enters the registering openings 8 and 9.
This latch platey member 12 by means o 10 is provided with a gripf which the stud 11 wall of ia, 1925.', seriai No. 3,926.
may be operated.. yTo maintain latch v plate with its stud `in operative positions in respect` to the telescopic members Gand 7, a spring plate13 isvsecured to the yside the member 6 bythe screws 14 and has its free end overlying the latch plate lteinovably fastened to the'v free end. ofthe framemember 7 is an inverted` L-shaped brick gripping member 15 which is main-. 'tainedin place bythe bolt 16; The free end of this griping member 15 is bifurcated,
this ear 22 is intended for receiving the bolt f 23 which secures the hand kkgrip 24.to the member` 19. For the purposev of inaintainingthis gripping member 19 in a position to permit the carrier to be arranged in respect to a'series of bricks sovthat the latter may be grasped, a spring member 25 is secured by the screws' 26 to the under face of the frame member 6 and has adj ustably secured to its free end the yoke member 27, as
by the slot 28 and screws 29. This yoke member 27 hasthe bifurcated end 27a formed `with its furcations bent to define hook portions 30 which releasably-engage the transversely extending stud 31 carriedby the brick gripping member 19. n
The operation of this brick carrier may be described as follows It is to be understood that the pivotal brick gripping member'19 is retained in the position shown in Figs. 1 and 2 by the yoke 27 carried by the spring member 25. With the brick gripping members 15 and 19 in the relative positions illustrated, the carrier is adapted to be positioned in operative relation with a predetermined series or numbery of bricks arranged in a pile. The operator of the carrier merely grasps the handle 24 with one hand and inserts the brick gripping members 15 and 19 between the adjacent faces of the bricks. By forcing downwardly upon the carrier, by means of the handle 24, the bricks to be moved toward the frame member 6 to release the hooked ends froml the transversely extending stud 31. After the brick gripping member 19 is released, an upward lifting force applied to the handle 24 will cause the member 19 to pivot upon the pin 18 for gripping or binding the bricks to be handled between the member 19 and 15. This series of bricks lmay then be carried to the place desired and by placing the' said bricks upon a support, the handle 24 may be moved downwardly in respect to the frame 5. This downward movement will increase the distance between the members 15 and 19 and the bricks will be released. This pivotal movement of the 4brick gripping member 19 will cause the stud 31 to be again moved into engagement with the hooks 30 and the member 19 will be retained in the position illustrated in Figs. 1 and 2.
It is to be understood that the form of this invention herewith shown and described is to be taken as a preferred example of the same, and that various changes in the shape, size, and arrangement of parts may be resorted to without departing from the spirit of the invention or the scope of the subjoined claims.
Having thus described the invention, I claim 1. In a device of the type described, a frame comprising a pair of telescopically arranged tubular members, means for maintaining said members in adjusted relation ferent adjustments of the tubular membersf 2. In a device of the type described, a frame comprising a pair of telescopically arranged tubular members, rectangular in cross-section, means for maintaining said members in adjusted relation in. respect to each other, a gripping member rigidly carried by one of the frame members atV the kfree end thereof, a second gripping member pivotally carried by the opposite end of the remaining frame member, a handle carried by the pivoted gripping member, and means for releasably holding the pivoted gripping member immovable in respect to the rigid gripping member, said means being released by the objects to be handled when the device is properly arranged in respect thereto.
In testimony whereof we affix our signatures.
