CHUTE Filed March 25, 1930 6. 6352' ies Patented Mar. 31, 1931 UNITED STAS CHARLES G. STATES, OF CEDAREDGE, COLORADO, ASSIGNOR 0F ONE-EIGHTH TO EMMETT It. FEIGHNER, ONE-EIGHTH T0 LUTHER RHODES, ONE-EIGHTH TO ROY A. PETERSON, AND ONE-EIGHTH T0 JOHN F. WARREN, ALL OF THE COUNTIES OF MONTROSE AND DELTA, COLORADO CHUTE Application filed March 25, 1930.
This invention relates to chutes, and it is an object of the invention to provide a tie vice of this kind to facilitate the placing in or filling of bins, basement or cellar rooms, cars, barges or the like with coal or other materials.
It is also an object of the invention to provide a device of this kind which canbe readily used as a part of or in connection with chutes, slides or inclines, or separately on the sides of or above cars, barges, wagons, etc., or in the windows or openings of bins and the like.
Another object of the invention is to provide a device of this kind which serves to cause the material passing thereover to be thrown upwardly and away from its surface so that such material may be thrown some distance away from the discharge end of the device and thus materially facilitating the filling of a room, bin, car or the like with a material saving in cost and labor.
An additional object of the invention is to provide a device of this kind comprising a plate or body of desired dimensions, one marginal portion of which being adapted to be firmly fixed or fastened with the opposite marginal portion free and disposed on a desired curvature.
The invention consists in the details of construction and in the combination and arrangement of the several parts of my improved chute whereby certain important advantages are attained and the device rendered simpler, less expensive and otherwise more convenientand advantageous for use, as will be hereinafter more fully set forth.
The novel features of my invention will hereinafter be definitely claimed.
In order that my invention may be the better understood, I will now proceed to describe the same with reference to the accom panying drawing, wherein Figure 1 is a view in perspective of a chute constructed in accordance with an embodiment of my invention;
Figure 2 is a view in top plan of the device as herein disclosed;
Serial No. 438,780.
Figure 3 is a sectional View taken substantially on theline 33 of Figure 2.
Asdisclosed in the accompanying drawing, my improved chute comprises a plate 1' of desired dimensions and preferably of spring steel. The major portion of this plate 1 is substantially flat while an end portion. 2 thereof is disposed on a desired curvature in an upward or outward direction with respect to the working face of the plate 1 proper.
The end portion of the platel proper remote from the curved portion 2 is continued by a returned or reverted plate 3 underlying the plate 1 proper and which provides means whereby the device may be effectively engaged with a holding member 4, such as a rod or other suitable element.
As illustrated in the drawing, the side marginal portions of the plate 1 proper have disposed therealong the outstanding flanges 5, said flanges diverging toward the curved end portion 2 of the device. These flanges serve to assure the requisite maintenance of the material on the device when first received thereon. It is to benoted, however, that the flanges terminate inwardly of the curved portion 2 so that no hindrance or obstruction will he offered tothe desired throw of the material as created by this portion 2.
By having the plate 1 of spring steel or kindred material possessing a certain degree of inherent resiliency, effective rebound is assured for the material thrown thereon together with desired deflection of the material. The line of throw is regulated by the degree of pitch in which the device is placed.
Upon impact of the load upon the plate 1,
as by throwing a shovelful of material there-' on, the plate 1 will first bend or flex at a point above the flanges 5 permitting said plate to move downwardly. As the load passes along the plate 1, the curved end portion 2, which is in advance of the flanges 5, will also depress. The resiliency of the plate 1 at its first or upper point of fiexure together with the resiliency of the portion 2 will result in such rebound of the load to throw the same upward and forward.
The flanges 5, in addition to maintaining the load upon the plate 1, also serve to maintain said plate substantially rigid or nonresilient between the curved portion 2 and the upper or first point of fiexure of the plate 1. This rigidity or non-flexure assures the desired deflection of the material.
From the foregoing description it is thought to be obvious that a chute constructed in accordance with my invention is particularly well adapted for use by reason of the convenience and facility with which it may be assembled and operated, and it will also be obvious that my invention is susceptible of some change and modification without departing from the principles and spirit thereof and for this reason I donot wish to be understood as limiting myself to' the precise arrangementv and formation of the several parts herein shown in carrying out my invention in practice except as herein after claimed.
I claim 1- 1. As a new article of manufacture, a chute comprising a plate, and means for support ing, the plate to allow rebound after impact thereon, the discharge end portion of the plate being arranged on an outward curvature to throw upwardly and away the material passing thereover.
2. As a new article of manufacture, a chute comprising a plate, and means for supporting the plate to allow rebound after impact thereon, the discharge end portion of the plate being arranged on an outward curvature to throw upwardly and away the material passing thereover, said curved portion being resilient.
3. As a new artlcle of manufacture, a chute comprising a plate, and resilient means for ,supporting one end portlon of the plate to allow said plate to rebound, the opposite extremity comprising an outwardly directed resilient portion to throw upwardly and away the material passing thereover.
4. As a new article of manufacture, a chute comprising a plate, and resilient meansfor supportingone end portion of the plate to allow the same to rebound, the opposite eX- tremity comprising an outwardly disposed resilient portion, the intermediate portion of the plate being rigid, said outwardly disposed resilient portion throwing upwardly and away the material passing thereover.
5. As a new article ofmanufacture, a chute comprising aplate, means for yieldingly supporting the plate at one end portion to permitsaid plate to rebound after impact thereon,'the opposite extremity of the plate being provided with an outwardly disposed resilient portion.
6. As a new article of manufacture, a chute comprising a plate, means for yieldingly supporting the plate at oneend portion to per mit said plate ,to rebound after impact thereon, the opposite extremity of the plate being signature.-
CHARLES G. STATES.
