DIVISION BOARD FOR TRUCK BODIES.
Application filed April 30, 1926. Serial No. 105,838.
ber, which may be held parallel with the board by an engaging device, but which may 5 also be moved about the hinged connection,
in order to provide a brace or support for a coal chute or the like.
lVith the foregoing and other objects in view, the invention consists in the novel construction and arrangement of elements described, illustrated and-claimed, it being understood that modifications may be made within the scope of the claims, without departing from the spirit of the invention.
In the drawings forming part of this application,
Figure 1 shows a box or body portion of a truck or other vehicle, in top plan, with my improved division board mounted therein.
Figure 2 is a vertical section on line 2-2 of Figure 1.
Figure 3 is a perspective view of the board with the hinged element applied thereto.
Figure 4 is a view of the structure of Figure 3, in edge elevation, the hinged member having been moved to aposition at an angle with reference to the board per se.
Figure 5 is a view in elevation, showing the board and hinged member employed as a support for a coal chute, the latter extending from the body of the truck, which body is shown with the major portion thereof broken away.
The box or body of the vehicle includes the 5 sides 10 and 11, the forward end portion 12,
and the end gate or board 13, the latter operating in guides such as 15.
The division board 16 operates in guides such as 17, and a strip, brace or board 19 is mounted along side of board 16, and is connected therewith by means of a hinge, or hinges, the drawings showing a single hinge designated 20 and including a plurality of leaves to be connected respectively with the elements 16 and 19.
The end 21 of element 19 is beveled as shown, in order that it may contact withthe surface of board 16, when the member l9is moved to the position of Figure 4E, and actsas a brace.
.The element 19 is held detachably in the position of Figures 1 and 3, by means of a resilient engaging device or catch 22 including a rolled or deflected portion adapted for engagement by the end of strip 19, so the lat ter may be swung to closed position, and will become engaged without special attention on the part of the user.
Then, as freque-ntl happens, there is danger of leakage of grain, sand, small size coal, or other material under the division board,
during travel over rough roadways, the element 19 will not be engaged by catch'or retaining element 22, but will be allowed to pro ject outwardly, and become embedded in the load, on that side of the board,so that vertical movement of the division board is almost wholly prevented.
In Figure 5, two sections of a coal chute are designated 27 and 28,and the device shown in the other views is employed for supporting the two-part chute in a manner which is read' ily apparent from an examination of the disclosure. movement of element 19 is limited by the beveled end 21, so that there is no danger of accidental displacement.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new, is
1. A division board'for a vehicle body, comprising a substantially flat element, a brace hinged to this element near one end, and having its upper edge below the-top of said. element, and an engaging device connected with the board and adapted to contact with the end of the brace opposite to the hinged end thereof.
2. A division. board for a vehicle body, comprising a substantially flat element, a brace hinged thereto near one end, this end of the brace being beveled for engaging the It is also clear that the outward board and limiting the movement of the brace MRS. MARY E. BOUSTEAD.
