p 8. Claims. (01. 46-37) This invention relates to toy automobile hoistsv and the object of the invention is to provide a telescoping hoist for toy automobiles, trucks or the like, in which the telescoping sections of the hoist are normally expanded by a spring and in which the said sections .may be compressed against the tension of the spring by meansof a cable and manually rotatable shaft.
.Another object of the invention is'to provide a toy automobile hoist of the character described having a base on which the telescoping hoist sections are mounted and provided with a shaft rotatably mounted in the .base, the telescoping sections of the hoistcontaining. an expanding spring for raising the said sectionsand acable being attached to the uppermost section and the wheel andshaft may be rotated, the wheel being provided with a series of apertures and a catch being provided on the base adapted to .engage in the apertures to lock the wheel at any position against the tension of the springwithin the hoist sections.
' Another object of the invention is to provide a platform having inclined ends and pivotally mounted to turn on a horizontal plane on the uppermost of the hoist sections.
These objects andthe sever-a1 novel features of the invention are hereinafter more fully described and claimed and the preferred form of construction by which these objects are attained is shown in the accompanying drawing in which- Fig. 1 is a side elevation of the device in the lowered position.
Fig. 2 is a plan view thereof partly broken away to show the operating wheel.
Fig. 3 is an enlarged section taken on line 3-3 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 4 is an enlarged section taken on line 4-4 of Fig. 1.
is attached to this base 1, as shown in Fig. 3,.'
and the lower hoist section 6 is secured in this bracket, as shown. A second hoist section 7 is provided having an out-turned lug 8 which rides in the slot 9 in the section 6 and the uppermost hoist section 10 is provided with an out-turned lug 11 riding in the slot 12 of the hoist section '7. These lugs 8 and 11 limit upward or downward movement of the hoist sections and the upper hoist section 10 is provided with a depending tubular portion 13.
The platform 14 shown in Figs. 1, 2 and 3 is formed to provide ways 15 for the wheels of the toy truck and flanges 16 are. provided at opposite sides of these ways and extend upwardly, as shown more particularly in Fig. 3. A pin 17 is provided at the center of the platform and extends through a washer 18 beneath the platform and into the depending tubular portion 13 of. the hoist section 10 to allow the platform to be turned in a horizontalplane on the hoist.
Connected to the lower end of the portion 13 is a link 18 and a cord or cable 19 is connected to'thislink andextends through a tube 20 whichis secured in the base. A spring 21 for expanding the telescoping sections of the hoist is positioned about the tube 20 at the lower end and extends about the depending tubular portion 13 at the upper end. At the lower end the tube 20 is flared outwardly-as shown and the cable 19 extends through this tube and through the base 1 and is wound about a shaft 22'sh0wn in Figs. 1, 3 and 4. This shaft 22 is rotatably mounted in a short tube 23 which is secured in the base 1 and a wheel 2411s secured to the upper end of the shaft, while a circular plate 25 is secured to the lower end thereof. A collar 26 is also secured to the shaft. and the cable 19 is wound about the shaft between the collar 26 and the plate 25 and the end 27 of the cable is secured in an aperture in the plate 25 as shown in Fig. 4.
The wheel 24 is provided with a pair of diametrically opposite knobs 23 and is also provided with a series of apertures 29 near the rim of the wheel. Pivotally mounted on the base 1 in the bracket 30 is a catch 31 provided with a handle 32 at the opposite end. The end 32 of the catch is heavier than the end 31 so that the end 32 tends to drop to the position shown in Fig. 4 by gravity, thus causing the catch 31 to engage in the apertures 29 of the wheel 24.
In the collapsed position, shown in Fig. 1, the toy automobile, truck or other device may be run up onto the platform 14, at which time, by raising the end 32, the catch 31 is disengaged from the apertures 29 in the wheel 24 thus allowing the spring 21 to move the telescoping sections upwardly and raise the automobile and this upward movement of the platform may be stopped at-any point by dropping the end 32 of the catch. After the telescoping sections have been expanded, they may be again contracted by grasping one of the knobs 28 of the wheel 24: and rotating the wheel in a clockwise direction in the position shown in Fig. 2. This winds the cable 19 on the shaft of the wheel and compresses the telescoping sections against the tension of the spring 21 and it will be noted in this rotative movement that the apertures in the wheel will readily pass over the end of the catch which is provided with a curved face for this purpose and upon releasing the knobs. of the wheel, the catch 31 will prevent reverse rotation of the wheel and will thus prevent the raising of the telescoping sections. As the platform 14; is pivotally mounted in the upper telescoping section, it may be turned to any position desired in relation to the base. 7
From the foregoing description, it becomes evident that the device is very simple and efficient inoperation, will not easily get out of order, is composed of few parts and is of consequent low manufacturing cost and provides a device which accomplishes the objects described.
Having thus fully described my invention, its utility and mode of operation, what I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States is 1. In a toy automobile hoist, a base, a series of tubular telescoping sections mounted on the base, a coiled spring within said telescoping sections and arranged to normally expand the same, a cable attached to the upper telescoping section and extending through the telescoping sections 35 and base, a shaft rotatably mounted in the base, the cable being secured to the shaft to be wound up on the same, manually operable means for rotating the shaft and latch means normally preventing reverse rotation of the shaft, the said latch means being manually releasable to'allow expansion of the telescoping sections by the spring.

telescoping tubular sections mounted on the base,
a coiled spring within said telescoping sectionsand normally expanding the same, a platform pivotally mounted on the upper telescoping section to turn in a horizontal plane, a cable attached to the upper telescoping section and extending downwardly through the coiled spring and into the base, a shaft rotatably mounted in the base and arranged to be manually rotated,
the said cable being secured thereto and arranged 'ed in the base, a wheel for rotating the shaft, the cable being attached to the shaft to be wound up on the same and latch means normally preventing'reverse rotation of the wheel and shaft.
