GASKET SKID PLATE FOR HEARSES Filed 0G11. 25, 1936 y 19 r 20 J3 Patented Jan. 10, 1939 PATENT OFFICE GASKET SKID PLATE FOR HEARSES Earl L. Schofield, Freeport, Ill., assigner to Henny Motor Company, Freeport, Ill., a corporation of Delaware Application October 23,
7 Claims.
This invention relates to hearses, and is particularly concerned with an improved metal skid plate for the floor or casket table on which to slide the casket in loading and unloading.
The principal object of my invention is to provide a skid plate of two-piece construction consisting of a base plate arranged to be secured to the floor or table and a skid strip removably inserted in a recess in the plate and serving to conceal the fastening screws, whereby to present a neat and attractive appearance and also permit replacement of the skid strip in the event it gets scored from service.
Other objects of the invention will appear as reference is made to the accompanying drawing, in which- Figure 1 is a plan view of a casket table of a hearse, showing skid plates thereon made in accordance with my invention;
Fig. 2 is a top View of one of the skid plates shown on a larger scale;
Fig. 3 is a longitudinal section through the base of a skid plate, showing how it is fastened to the casket table by concealed screws, the skid strip appearing in side elevation in this view in an inclined position, as when being inserted or removed;
Fig. 4 is a cross-section taken on the line l-- of Fig. 2, on a still further enlarged scale, and
Fig. 5 is a sectional detail on the line 5--5 of Fig. 4.
The same reference numerals are applied to corresponding parts throughout the views.
Referring to Fig. l, the casket table E is intended for use in a side delivery hearse in which the table is movable forwardly and to either side for loading and unloading, and also usually movable rearwardly from the hearse for the same purpose, Such hearses being known as the three-way service type. In loading and unloading, pins 'l in side plates 8 serve mainly as guides, and when the casket has been placed on the table approximately centrally, other pins 'I are ent-ered in the proper holes in plates 9 at opposite ends of the table to serve as stays and prevent objectionable movement of the casket. There are twelve rubber rolln ers I!) mounted on the table E in pairs in longitudinally spaced relation, as shown, and these support the casket for easy movement and at the same time absorb the noise that otherwise accompanied the rolling of caskets over metal rollers. It is between these pairs of rollers that the skid plates il of my invention are provided. They extend longitudinally between the rollers, as shown, and serve to prevent scraping or gouging the up- 1936, serial No. 107,260
holstered surface I2 of the table in case the casket is lowered unevenly on the table. Now, of course, in an ordinary hearse not equipped with a movable table l5, the floor of the hearse is equipped with rollers like the rollers Iii, similarly located, and, in such hearses, skid plates II are fastened directly to the floor between the rollers similarly located with respect thereto, as herein shown, whereby to protect the upholstered surface of the hearse floor in the event the casket is lowered unevenly onto the floor or is not removed from the hears-e carefully. In either type of hearse, the skid plates will extend close up to the rollers so that the edges of the casket cannot come in contact with the hardware on the table or floor of the hearse, as the case may be. Obviously, these plates will be set high enough to prevent the casket from touching the upholstered surface of the table or floor between the rollers, the rollers themselves being relied upon to support the casket in its travel and afterward when retained by the bier pins.
Referring now to Figs. 2 to 5, each skid plate II comprises a base plate I3 and a skid strip I4.
The base plate I3 is preferably, though not necesl sarily, a die casting and has a plurality of longitudinally spaced hollow cylindrical bosses I5 formed on the bottom thereof interconnected by a longitudinal rib I6. A longitudinal groove I'I in the rib I5 interconnects the vertical bores I8 of the bosses I5. Now, the skid strip Ill has a complem'entary longitudinal rib I9 on the bottom thereof interconnecting a plurality of longitudinally spaced pin projections 2U, and the rib i9 is arranged to t in the groove Il while the pin I projections 20 are arranged to enter the bores I8, as indicated in Figs. 2 and 4. The rib I9v is purposely made under size with relation to the groove Il, and the same is true of the pin projection 2S with relation to the bores I 8, so that the skid strip will be assured of easy assembling or disassembling. However, a close enough iit to prevent side or end play of the skid strip It relative to the base plate I3 is assured by the provision of diametrically opposed longitudinal beads 2| on the sides of the pin projections Ztl. These beads project suliiciently to have an easy sliding fit in the bores I8 of the bosses I5, thereby keeping the skid strip Hi nicely located centrally with relation to the base plate I 3, but at the same time permitting the raising up of one end of the strip, as by entry of a knife blade or finger nail under one end of the strip, when it is desired to remove the skid strip, as, for example. to replace a worn or scored one with a new one. The skid strip is also preferably, though not necessarily, a die casting. The ends of the strip are rounded, as at 22, to prevent snagging in the event the end of a casket should come into abutment with the end of the strip. The rounded surfaces 22 Will cause the casket to ride up on tcp of the strip and avoid damage either to the casket or skid plate. The casket table G is grooved, as at 23, to accommodate the bosses i while the rest of the plate i3 rests on the upholstered surface i2 of the table. In a similar way, the floor of a hearse will be grocved to take skid plates. Screws 24 entered through holes 25 in the bottoms of the bosses i5 serve to fasten the base plate I3 securely in place, and, of course, the heads of these screws will be cover-ed by the projections 2i) when the skid strip I6 is in place, and in that way no screws are left visible. The plated surfaces of the base plate i3 and skid strip I4 present an unusually neat and attractive appearance, and one cannot tell from even close inspection of the skid plates that the strips ifi thereof are separable; the skid plates appear to be of one-piece construction.
