Application November 18, '1931 Serial No. 575,839. i 1 s Claim. (01. 248-12) My invention relates to barrelhoisting'and display racks and certain objects or" the invention are to providea rack whereby heavy barrels containingfoodcommodities may be readily hoisted and thus placed ondisplay in very compact form and in position whereby the contents of thebarrels may be conveniently drawn or? into small containers. provide a rack that is adapted to form a back 103 ground and advertisement for the sale of liquid foods in a market stall or other place by placing proper advertisements on the face of the rack andb'y placing labels on the exposed ends of the barrels." f
With "the above and other objects in which will appear as the description proceeds,
the invention consists of the novel construction, adaptation, combination and arrangement of parts hereinafter described and claimed. These oliijects.are accomplished by devices illustrated in the accompanying drawing; wherein: Figure 1 is a view in front elevation of the rack; Fig. 2 is a view in end elevation; Fig. 3 is a view in transverse vertical section taken substantially on a broken line 3-3 of Fig. 1; Fig. l is a detail view in perspective of a hoisting cradle; Fig. 5 is a detail View in perspective of the carriage cradle; and Fig. 6 is a fragmentary view, partly in elevation and partly in section, showing the -'-hoisting ratchet and its associated parts.
Referring to the drawing throughout which like reference numerals designate like parts, the rack consists of a plurality of rectangular upstanding frames each comprising front and rear uprights 5 and 6 respectively that are secured in parallel spaced apart relation by top and bottom transverse members '1 and 8. Said frames are placed in parallel and equally spaced apart I relation and secured by front and rear top -- boards 9 and 10 respectively and by a rear bottom board 11 thus completing the framework of the rack and providing equal vertical compartments 12 as clearly shown in Fig. 1 of the drawing.
The hoisting means comprises a shaft 13 that is mounted on the top of the rack and journaled in a bearing 14 at either end thereof. A handle 15 has extended spaced apart plates ldfixed to its upper end and said plates are revolubly mounted on one end of said shaft. A ratchet Wheel 1'7 is fixed to the same end of said shaft 7 between said plates. A pawl 18 is pivotally mounted between said plates in engageable relation with said ratchet. A depending rod 19 is pivotally connected to said pawl and extends Further objects are todownwardly and slidably through a guide 20 fixed to 'the handle 15. A coiled spring, 21 has its ends respectively connected to said rod and handle and is under tension whereby the rod is normally held upward and thus causes said pawl to engage the ratchet. By pulling downward on the lower hooked end 22 of said rod thepawl' will be disengaged from the ratchet as will be understood.
' A short board 23 is secured to the top of the rack framework and projects ov er the end there of to the rear of the ratchet 17. A" second pawl, whichmay be termed-a safety pawland as des-; ignated by the'numeral 24, is pivotally'mounted onthe projecting end of said boardwithin' a shieldframe 25. Said second pawl normally engages said ratchet by force'of its own weight and a small chain or cable 26 is secured'to said pawl and extends over a pulley27 mounted withinthe shield frame By pulling downwardly on said chain it'will' be obvious that said pawl will be pivotally lifted out of engagement with the ratchet which is most clearly shown in Fig. 6 of the drawing.
The agents for hoisting the barrels comprises a number of hoisting cradles one of which is shown in detail in Fig. 4. Said cradles consist of a pair of side pieces, 28 that are secured in spaced apart relation by a pair of barrel sup- 9 porting pieces 29 that are transversely superimposed upon the ends of the side pieces and secured thereto. Said supporting pieces are provided with arcuate depressions, as at 30, which receive and support a barrel. Eyebolts 31 are secured through the side pieces 28 and the hook ends 32 of sling cables 33 and 34 are caught into said eyebolts when hoisting a barrel.
In hoisting'a barrel'a hoisting cradle is first placed on top of a truck cradle which is shown in detail in'Fig. 5. Said truck cradle comprises a pair of base boards 35 which are held in spaced apart relation by a pair of upstanding side pieces 36 having their ends secured to the ends of the base boards, and castors 37 are provided for the base boards. Said upstanding 100 side pieces are arranged to'fit inside of the side pieces 28 of the hoisting cradle and the barrel supporting pieces 29 therefore rest on said upstanding side pieces, and the ends of the side pieces 23 rest on the base boards 35 of the truck 105 cradle thus providing a very strong support for the barrel. The barrel, which is full of a liquid food commodity such as molasses, olive oil, grape juice or the like, is then placed on the hoisting cradle and, by means of the castors 37, is 0 moved into position at the bottom of one of the vertical compartments 12 with its front end facing outwardly. The ends of the cables 33 moved back and forth thus revolving the shaft l3 and winding up the two sling cableseq'ua'lly;
The barrel is thus raised to the desired position,
it being understood of course that the hoisting" cradle which supports the barrel leaves the truck" cradle on the floor and the topmost barrel is hoisted first in each vertical compartment 12. Opposite pairs of holes 39, as shown in. Fig. .3, are provided in the uprights 5 and 6. When the barrel has been hoisted to the desired. position, iron pins 40 are inserted in the lower ones of saidholes and the hoisting cradle is lowered until itsside pieces 28rest on said pins. The sling cables 33 and 34 are then removed and the barrel is now in its established position ondisplay and conveniently disposed for drawing off its liquid contents through its faucets into small receptacles H v I The holes 39 are made in pairs for two reasons. Referring to Fig. 3, the first reason is that the rear end of a barrel may be lifted by raising the rear'end of its supporting cradle and retaining said cradle in this position by inserting a pin 40 into the upper rear hole. Thus'when a barrel becomes nearly empty the last of its contents may be drained off. The second reason is that when the rear end of a barrel is tipped up, as shown in the lower portion of Fig. 3, the next supporting cradle above may be raisedfrom the lower to the upper holes, or from the dotted to the full line position, to make room for lifting the rear end of the barrel below, it being understood that the device is made as compact and low as possible for the reason that the contents of the barrels must be drawn off by the attendant while he is standing on the floor. To lower a barrel the pawls 18 and 24 are alternately released from engagement with the ratchet 17 by manipulating the rod 19 and cable 26 and a barrel must be lowered very slowly owing to its at 'WQi hF- It will now be apparent that I have provided a compact rack by means of which a large number of very heavy barrels, each containing aliquid food commodity, may be hoisted with comparative ease-and thus placed on display. The contents of each barrel is labeled on the exposed ends thereof and said contents may be readily drawn off into small containers. The device as a whole forms an attractive background or setting for the market stall of the business which I personally originated and which I callffLiquiteriaf and wherein the liguid foods are bought in bulk or barrelsand sold in small containers.
