'27, 1931 UNITED STATES PATENT orr cu main 1); BALL, many L. moons, AND WILLIAM B. NIVERT, or GLAsoow, mrs sounr COMBINED SUPPORTING RACK AN D TIITER FOR BARRELS CASES Application filed May 22,
ed from a vertical position when standing on a support or fioor to a horizontal position spaced with respect to the support or floor and mounted on and supported by the rack in 15 such horizontal position sothat the contents I of the cask may be dispensed through a faucet inserted in one of the heads.
A further object of the invention is to pro vide, in a manner as hereinafter set forth, a
' device for the purpose referred to including means to prevent the tilting thereof 'when supporting the barrel or cask in a horizontal position. v
Further objects of the invention are to provide; in a manner as hereinafter set forth, a device for the purpose referred to which is simple in its construction and arrangement,
strong, durable, compact, thoroughly eflicient in its use, conveniently operated to tilt a barrel from a standing to a horizontal position,
readily assembled, and comparatively inexpensive to manufacture. 1
With the foregoing and other ob ects in struction, combination and arrangement of parts as hereinafter more specifically described, and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein is shown an embodiment of the invention,but it'is to be understood that changes, variations and modifications can be resorted to which fall within the scope of the claims hereunto appended.
In the drawings, wherein like reference characters denote corresponding parts throughout the several views:
- Figure 1 is a side elevation of a rack, in accordance with this invention, and show ing the rack in position when supportinga cask horizontally. .Figure2 is aview looking towards the view the invention consists of the novel con- 1929. Serial. No. 365,143.
partly-in section and showing the adaptation.
of the rack whenpositioned to tilt a cask from an upright or vertical position to a horizontal position.
Figure 4 is a fragmentary view in perspective looking towards the rear of the rack.
The rack is portable and includes a pair of spaced, opposed rockers generally indicated at 1, 2 and each includes a straight front part 3 and an arcuate rear part t which extends upwardly from the part 3. The rack further includesa pair ofopposed, spaced top bars 5, 6 and to the rear end of each top bar is connected the upper end of the rear part 4 of a rocker.
The outer end of the forward part3 of I each rocker has connected therewith a vertically disposed, front supporting brace bar' 7, which has its upper end connected with the front end of a top bar.
The forward part 3 of each rocker, in proximity to the rear part 4 of the rocker, has connected' therewith a vertically disposed brace bar 8, which has its upperend connected to a top bar, approximately centrally of the latter.
The rear ends of the top bars 5, 6 are connected together by a combined coupling and supporting member of concave form' and which is indicatedat 9,
The upper ends of the front brace bars 7 are connected together by a combined coupling and supporting member 10 of concave form. o Pivotally mounted in the brace bars 8, in proximity to the lower ends of said bars, is a rock shaft 11. Pivotally mounted in the parts 4 of the rockers 1, 2 and positioned above the shaft 11 isa rock shaft 12.
Fixedly secured to the shaft 11 and proiecting rearwardly therefrom is an arm 13, having the inner end'of a link 14 pivotally connected therewith as at 15. Fixedl secured to the shaft 12and projecting t erefrom is a. skeleton rear support consisting'of a base portion 16,a pair of oppositely inclined rods 17, 18 extending from the base'16 to the v ends to the top bars 5, 6, as at 20, 21 respectively, area pair of flexible securing straps 22, 23 respectively, acting as a means to maintain the cask 1 on the rack when the latter supports, the former. The strap 22 at its outer end is formed with an apertured abut-' 'ment 24 through which extends a threaded member 25, pivotally connected as at 26 to the outer end of the strap 23.
Mounted on the member 25 and bearing against the abutment 24 is an adjusting element 27 for maintaining the straps 22, 23 in binding position with respect to the cask 1.
\Vhen it is desired to tilt the cask from a vertical to a horizontal position, the support which is carried by the shaft 12 and connected with the link 14 is shifted to the position as shown in Figure 3. The rack is secured to the cask 1 by the straps 22, 23 and the rack will be in the position as shown in Figure 3; The cask 1 is then shifted to a horizontal position, the arcuate portions 4 of the rockers 1, 2 permitting of such action. After the cask 1 has been shifted to a horizontal position, the support which is carried by the shaft 12 is shifted outwardly to the position shown in Figure 1, and this prevents any possibility of the rack tilting when supporting the cask 1 in a horizontal position.
The rockers, rear brace bars and top bars may be set up from a single length of cylindrical stock having its ends welded together. The brace member 8 which associates with a top bar and rocker may also be formed of cylindrical stock and welded to the rocker and top bar. Preferably the members 9, 10 are formed of fiat stock, butpan be constructed of cylindrical stock and preferably they are welded to the top bars and braces 7.
It is thought the many advantages of a rack, for the purpose set forth and in accord-L ance with this invention, can be readily understood and although the preferred embodiment of the invention is as illustrated and described, yet it is to be understood that changes in the details of construction can be had which fall within the scope of the invention as claimed. 7 What we claim is: i r v 1. A rack comprising a pair ofspaced rockers, atop bar connected to the forward end of each rocker, spaced brace bars tween each top bar and its associated rocker,
' a pair of spaced, combined coupling and suporting members arran ed between said top ars, and one connecte to the rear ends of the top bars and the other to the forward ends of the to bars, a pivotal support" carried by the roc ers at the rear portions thereof, and means pivotally mounted in a pair of brace bars, pivoted intermediate the ends thereof and slidably connected to said support for maintaining it in an upright position.
2. A rack comprising a pair of spaced rockers, a pair of opposed, spaced'top bars,
a plurality of spaced, combined coupling and supporting members connecting said bars to; geth'er in spaced relation, front vertical braces connecting the front of the rockers to said bars, saidrockers connected at their rear to said top bars, intermediate vertical braces connecting the rockers to the said bars, a pivotal support positioned between and connected to the rockers at the rear thereof, and means pivotally mounted in said intermediate braces and slidably connected to said support for maintaining-it in an upright osition.
3. A rac: comprising a pair of spaced rockers, a pair of opposed spaced top bars, a plurality of spaced, combined coupling and supporting members connectin said bars together in spaced relation, ront vertical braces connecting the front of the rockers to said bars, said rockers connected at their rear to said top bars, intermediate vertical braces connecting the rockers to the said fisaid intermediate braces an including a pivoted link at its rear end slidably mounted on said support centrally of the latter.
In testimony whereof, weaflix our signatures hereto.
