,- other form of saw. that the log sags and results in a binding of FOWLKES, OF VICTORIA, VIRGINIA LOG- LIFTER AND HOLDER Application filed. November 18, 1930. Serial No. 496,459.
In the logging industry, the trees, after being felled and stripped of their limbs, are cut up into logs of the required length. This cutting is generally effected by a drag or It frequently happens the saw.
The present 1nvent1on provides a dev1ce which admits of a log being readily hfted and held in elevated position, thereby preventing binding of the saw.
The invention furthermore prov1des a log lifter and holder which may be easily manipulated by one person and which is adjust- A able to meet diflerent cond1t1ons encountered in preparing timber for market.
The invention also relates to the provision of a device of the character aforesaid which is adapted for use as a cant hook as well as a log lifter, without necessitating any change, removal or adjusting of the parts, thereby saving time and obviating the necessity of providing a cant hook in addition to a log lifter.
While the drawings illustrate a preferred embodiment of the invention, it is to be understood that in adapting the means to meet specific needs and requirements, the design may be varied and changes in the minor details of contruction may be resorted to within the scope of the invention as claimed without departing from the spir1t thereof.
For a full understanding of the invention A and the merits thereof, reference is to be had lower end of the prop and foot.
Corresponding and like parts are referred to in the following description and designated in the several views of the drawings by like reference characters.
The numeral 1 designates a lever upon which the operating parts are mounted. A clip 2 is fitted upon the lever 1 and may be fixed or adjustable, as desired. Hooks 3 and a: are connected at one end to the clip 2. The hook 3 is fixed, whereas the hook 4 is pivoted. 'An eye bolt 5 is applied to the lever 1 and engages the shank of the hook 3 and serves in conjunction with the clip 2 to firmly connect the hook 3 to the lever. The shank of the hook 3 is straight so as to lie close against the lever 1. A bolt 6, or analogous fastening, secures the clip 2. To admit of adjustment of the clip 2 along the lever 1, the latter is provided with aplurality of openings 7 through any one of which the fastening 6 may be passed to secure the clip 2 in the desired adjusted position. The hook 4 may function independently of the hook 3 or jointly therewith accordingly as the log is to be rolled or elevated.
A metal-tip 8 is secured upon the lower end of the lever 1 and serves as reinforcing and strengthening means therefor. A section 9 is slidable upon the tip 8 and admits of lengthening or shortening the lever, as may be desired, to properly position the hooks for effective cooperation with the log to be lifted. Suitable fastening means 10, such as clamp screws, are applied to the section 9 and hold it in the required adjusted position. The inner ends of the clamp screws 10 are pointed so as to bite into the metal tip 8 and prevent possible displacement of the section 9 when made secure in the desired adjusted position.
A prop or leg is associated with the lever l and is pivotally and adjustably connected thereto. This prop or leg comprises an upper section 11 and a lower section 12, said sections being adjust-ably connected by means of a turn buckle 13. The prop or leg is provided with a foot 1% which is pivoted thereto so as to adapt itself to the surface condition with which the foot may be engaged when the device is in service. A clip 15 is mounted upon the lever 1 and is connected thereto by means of a bolt 16or like fastening. A plurality of openings 17 are formed in the length of the lever 1 to receive the fastening 16, thereby providing for securing the clip in the required adjusted position. The prop or leg clip 15 and is from the hook 3 to admit of the log passing between the hooks. 'When the. device is adjusted, the lever is inclined and upon-moving the same'to an upright position, the hooks bite into opposite sides of the log and, as the lower end of the lever to admit of varying its length.
7. A log lifter and holder comprising a lever, log engaging hooks thereon, a sectional prop. pivotally connected to the lever, and a turn buckle connecting; the sections of the prop.
In testimony whereof I afiix my signature. .VVASHINGTO'N B.JPARRISH. [n.s].
lever is operated, the log is lifted and isheld A in elevated position by moving the lower end r of the prop or leg so that the latter will maintain the lever in adjusted-position with the logelevated a distance from the ground.v The broad extent of the pivoted foot 14 enables the. prop or leg to obtain positive-engagement with the ground without slipping or burying therein. In the. event of thelog being excessively heavy, it is possibleto lift the sameby turning the part 13 whereby to lengthen the prop or leg'withthe result that the lever 1 is positively moved to effect lifting of the log, aswill be readily understod. The turn buckle 13 may be rotatedby passing a bar or other implement through the frame and utilizing the same in the capacity of a n lever. ltwillbe readilyunderstood that the device is adapted'for use as a cant hook for rotating a log by utilizing thelever l and pivoted hook' l ina manner well understood. Having thus described the invention, 1
