My invention consists in an improved means for raising and lowering the adjustable decks of stock-cars, the arrangement of which will be hereinafter m ore fully described, and pointed out in the claim.
In the accompanying drawing, A represents the body of the car. A is an adjustable platform or floor, arranged to operate upon the inside of the car, and can be raised or lowered to suit the different kinds of freight; a, shafts passing across the ends of the car, and carrying the pinions a; B, racks working in the slides b; B, ratchetlever, carrying a spring-pawl, which engages the teeth of the ratchetwvheel b,- d, pawl attached to the car,
and engaging the teeth of the ratchet-wheel b, and holding the same in position when the lever is being operated.
The operation of my invention is as follows When the car is to be used as a double-decked car, the upper deck or platform A occupies the position represented in Fig. 1. When it is to be used as a single-decked car, the handle ions a, racks B, to work in the slides b,
