HECTOR TOOPS AND CLINTON TOOPS, 0 JEFFERSON, INDIANA.
IMPROVEMENT IN HAY-ELEVATORS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 177,175, dated May 9, 1876; application filed April 18, 1876.
To all whom it may concern:
-Be it known that we, HECTOR TooPs and CLINTON TooPs, of Jefferson, in the county of Clinton and State of Indiana, have invented a new'and Improved Hay-Elevator, of which the following is a specification Our invention consists of a hook or claw lever contrived with the carriage from which the hoisting-fork descends, and with the hoisting-ropes, and a stop-piece against which said hook-lever strikes when the carriage runs out to the place of taking the load, so that it hooks under the head of and engages the hoisting-fork, to hold it while running in the barn with the load and out again, and disengage-s it at the moment the truck comes out to the hoisting-place, all as hereinafter de scribed.
Figures 1 and 2 are sectional elevations of our improved apparatus, taken on line .70 w of Fig. 2, the one showing the hoisting-fork down in the position for taking the load, and the other showing it in the position for being carried into the barn; and Fig. 3 is a top View.
A is the truck or carriage, which runs on the rails B, and has the hoisting-fork O suspended from it by the rope D, said rope being connected to the carriage *at one end by passing over the bar D and attaching to the upper end of the claw-lever F. This rope then passes under the pulley G in the hoisting-fork, up over the pulley H on the carriage, and thence along through the barn, and over guide-pulleys I, to the place for attaching the power for raising the hay and drawing it into the barn. J is a latch, which catches at K, to hold the truck A while the bag' is being elevated, and L is the stop-piece for detaching the elevating-fork when it arrives back to the place for descending. When the head 0 of the elevator-fork comes up under the latch J it detaches the truck, so that the rope D pulls it into the barn, and as soon as it starts, so as to release the claw-lever F, the rope D swings the claw at the lower head forward under the head of the elevating-fork, to hold it until it has carried its load in and comes back again to the place for descending for anotherload, when the stop L trips it and lets the fork down. P is the tripping-rope.
Having thus described our invention, what we claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
The claw-lever F and stop piece L, combined with the headed elevator-fork (3, carriage A, and the latch J, substantially as specified.
