7 The object of any invention is'to" produce a mast hoist of cheap and light-construction and of rather'limited height capacity foruse in the elevation of building materials inthe' fabrication of comparatively low buildings.

The' accompa 11ying drawings illustrate my invention.

The "several sections are secured together,

Detachably secured togthe top'of the top section of the masti's a pulley head comprising a pair of parallel anglembars 20, 21 and having depending gusset plates'22 to each ofwhich is secured an angle -23havingarms arrangedbparallel to the flanges ofthemast channels and spaced apart, in pairs, adis-- tance slightly greater than the depth of'said ceive bolts 24 byme'ans of which the structure may be removably secured position.

A mast hoist correspondingly light and, therefore, cheap to manufacture and easy tohandle- It is prim'arily designed for use in connection with comparatiyely small ]ObS.' It will beunderstood, however; thatlv do iiotintcnd to unnecessarily limit my self to' an apparatus of any particular dimensions,f v Further bracing of the structure,'jother than the bracing from thetopframe, may be I found: to be desirable and for that purpose;

gay wires 95 may be attached to an arm 100, f
