This invention relates to carriers and parcularly to carriers for objects such as metal ipes, rods or like articles, and is intended or use in handling and transportin pipes, 'ods or the like when in process of 'fflbllCfttion or 1' storage thereof.
It an object of this invention to provide a carrier that may be made of a single blanir or strip of metal, if desired, preterably of hot rolled steel, altho of course, other metals may be used if desired, whereby a minimum amount of scrap is produced in the manufacture thereof and whereby the same may produced at a minimum 01" cost.
A further object of this invention is to providea carrier which will be of the maximum strength for the amount of material used therein.
An additional object of this invention is I to provide a carrier, which is generally used in pairs, which may be suspended from a crane or like machine to transport the carrier and articles thereon which may be easily and quickly disconnected from or reconnected to said crane, and which may be res-ted on the ground or other supporting surface without disturbing the arrangement of the articles carried thereby.
lVith the foregoing and other objects in view, as will become apparent from the following disclosure, this invention consists in the arrangements, combinations and constructions as hereinatt'er et forth and claimed.
In the drawing:
Fig. 1 is an end view of apair of carriers forming embodiments of this invention in operation.
Fig. 2 is a side view of Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is a cross section on lines 33 of Fig l is a plan view of a blank from which carrier may be termed.
"' 5 is an end view of a carrier embodyslightly different construction, and
' 6 is a section of one end of the carrier of Fig. 5 taken substantially on line 6-6.
There is shown at 10 in Fig. i, a blank having a rectangular central portion 11 and F ing tapered end portions 12. Projecting from be stamped out as a single unit, leaving a mmnnum amount of scrap. It may then be .i
waned while hot, or may be reheated if necessary, flanges being formed along the rec tangular and tapered portions at right angles thereto, so as to be substantially U-shaped in cross section.
is folded to Ushape so that the rectangular portion 11 becomes the bottom of the U whilethe tapered portions 12 become sides of the U and end at an ape); 14. The flanges 15 project downwardly from bottom portion 11, while flanges 16 project outwardly from sides 12 and form continuation or flanges 15 as at 17. The flanges 16 continue beyond the point or apex 1 1 of sides 12 and merge into the fingers 13, which now form hooks or suspension means, the two lingers 13 lying side by side and together forming the hook which obviously will be a very strong one.
In Figs. 5 and 6 is shownhow the carrier can be made with a slightly different construction. Instead of making the entire carrier from a single one-piece blank, the upright end members may be formed separately from the bottom member and then secured thereto in such a way as to form the carrier inthe same rigid construction. As shown the bot-tom member 23 is made of substantial ly inverted U-shape in cross section with downwardly extending spaced flanges 2 1 corresponding to the flanges 15 in the first form. The uprightend members 25 are also of sub stantially the same cross section as the upright members of the first form 'lL-ll the flanges 26 on their opposite side edges terminating in hooks 27 at their upper ends. These hooks may be formed on the blank the same as hooks 13 in the first form and folded together when the members are shaped. The bottom member 223 and end members 25 then secured together by welding, rive or both welding and riveting. The b0 ly portions may be welded as shown at 28 and the flanges E24 and 26 either welded or At the same time, the blank" riveted together or both welded and riveted. This construction makes a carrier in which the flanges of the upright end members are practically an integral continuation of the flanges of the bottom member and is as strong as the one piece carrier. It is, however, somewhat easier to make and does not require as large and heavy machinery to make as does the first form. They are both used in the same manner.
In operation, the carrier is generally used in pairs, as shown in Fig. 1, and may be set upright on the floor or other supporting surface while it being loaded with pipes 20 or the like. which are to be transported thereon. The hooks 13 or 2? ar then caught by rings ill on the end of Cllfl'i s 22 supported from a crane or the like, whereupon the pipes may be transported from one part ofthe tactory to another while being fabricated. These carriers may likewise be used to support the pipes while they are being treated as in a pickling bath or the like. as may be done especially if the pipes are of brass or like material.
Having thus set forth this invention, What is claimed is:
1. A carrier formed of rolled metal and U- shaped to form bottom and side portions, said bottom and side portions being of inverted U-shape in cross section with the edges of the sides of the bottom portion spaced from each other and substantialiy straight to provide a firm stand on a plane surface, and said side portions having suspension means thereon.
2. A carrier formed of rolled metal and U- shaped to form bottom and side portions, said bottom and side portions being of inverted U-shape in cross section with the edges of the sides of the bottom portion spaced, laterally from each M110 and substantially straight to provide a firm stand on a plane surface,
and said side portions ha ing suspension means thereon. said suspension nieans comprising hooked fini crs curving away from said side members v 3. A blank for a carrier comprising a. central rectangular portion, tapering portions at each end of said rectangular portion, and oppositely curved fingers projecting from each tape-red portion adapted to be folded to a position side by side to form a suspension hook.
4. A carrier comprising a substantially fiat bottom portion having downwardly projecting flanges, upwardly projecting tapered side portions, outwardly projecting flanges on said side members forming eontinuations of the downwardly projecting flanges, said out wardly projecting flanges each having an extension curved outwardly and the curved portions together forming a suspension hook.
A carrier for supporting pipe or like articles comprising a U-shaped member, the bottom of said U-shaped member being substantially rectangular, down weirdly project ing flanges on said bottom, the sides of said U-shaped mom-her being substantially trian gular and tapering to an apex and outwardly projecting flanges on said side forming continnati ens of said bottom flanges, said side flanges each having an extension curved outwardly and the two together forming a suspension hook.
6. A carrier for supporting pipe or like articles comprising a U-shaped member, the bottom of said U-shaped member being substantially rectangular, downwardly projecting flanges on said bottom, the sides ol said U-shaped member being substantially triangular and tapering to an apex and outwardly projecting flanges on said side forming continuations of said bottom flanges, said flung s continuing above the apex of the sides and then curved down ardly to form suspension hooks.
In testimony whereof I atlix my signature.
