FELIX B. GRAFF, OF ERIE, PENNSYLVANIA, ASSIGNOR OF ONE-HALF OF HIS RIGHT TO ROBERT J. SALTSMAN, OF SAME PLAGE.
END-BOARD FoR WAGON-Boxes.
VSZEIECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 223,445, dated January 13, 1880.
Application filed August 11, 1879.
My device is illustrated in the accompany,-V
ing drawings as follows:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the rear end of a wagon-box, and shows my improvements in place and holding the end-board in position in the box. Fig. 2 is a like view of the same parts, only showing the end-board removed from position in the boX.
A A are the side-boards of the box, and B is the end-board. C O O and O are the vertical cleats which hold the end-board in posi tion. -E E are hooks which serve the pur-- pose of a cross binding rod. One of the cleats, C', which hold the end-board in position is made movable by heilig pivoted at its lower end at e. Its upper end is provided with a hole, d, for the admissionof a key-bolt, D, which passes through a hole, d', in the sideboard of the box. The cleat C is kept in a vertical position by the key-bolt D, when inserted, as shown in Fig. 1. The head of the key-bolt D is provided with an eye, into which one or" the hooks E engages, thus servingl as a staple, and the hook serves also to prevent the key-bolt slipping out.
When the cleat C is in the position shown in Fig. 1 the endboard B can be slipped down into place, as in a common wagon-box, and the hooks E E, when engaged with the staples on the side-boards, (the key-bolt serving as one staple,) serve the same oflce as a common binding-rod.
When it is desired to remove the end-board the hook E is unhooked from the key-bolt, an'd it is turned and withdrawn from the holes d d', and the cleat O is free to drop into the position shown in Fig. 2, and the end-board can then be thrown around into the position shown in Fig. 2, which will permit the load to be shoveled out; or it can be entirely removed from the box by unhooking the other hook E, which engages with a common staple on the side of the box.
The endboard is made with a notch, b, at
one corner, so as to slip over the cleat C', as it lies in the position shown in Fig. 2. By making the cleaJ O a little thinner than the companion cleat the notch b will be covered by the companion cleat when the end-board is in place, and no opening will be made for the escape of the contents of the box.
The advantages of my device are, that is simple and cheap, and it is quickly and easily operated, effective, and very durable. It costs little more than the most common construction, and there are `no complicated part-s to get out of repair.
What I claim as my invention is- In combination with the side-boards A A, cleats O O C, and end-board B, the cleat O', pivoted at c, and fastened by a key-bolt, D, substantially as and for the purposes mentioned.
In testimony whereof I, the said FELIX B. GRAFF, have hereunto set my hand.
FELIX B. GRAFF.
