'14 Claims. (Cl.'105367) This invention relates to a transportation load and method of preparing the same and is especially adapted'for loads of narrow coils of strip metal which stand on end on a railroad car.
In the past. individual coils were banded to prevent uncoiling and then rolled into and lined up crosswise of the car by hand. As each row was completed, the blockers came in measured, cut. fitted, and fastened the timber bracing in place. Each blocker selected the material and blocked according to his judgment and material, this being slow. costly and inefllcient. The customer had considerable difliculty in unloading and damage, to both the coils and the car, often resulted when the blocking was ripped out. The coils were blocked solid in the car and thus there were no means for cushioning the impact caused by severe jolting or bumping of the car in transit.
It is an object of my invention to so load the coils that all phases of their handling will be safe.
Another object is to protect the steel by assembling the coils in units which can be conveniently handled with equipment which is available to both loader and customer.
A further object is to protect the steel and equipment by so preparing the load so that it will not shift haphazardly in transit.
A still further object is to prepare the load so that the blocking and lashing can be easily loosened and removed.
These and other objects will be more apparent after referring to the following specification and attached drawings, in which:
Figure l is a plan view of one embodiment of the invention showing the coils loaded into a car;
Figure 2 is a vertical section taken on the line II1I of Figure 1;
Figure 3 is a view taken on the line III-III of Figure 1;
Figure 4 is a plan view of an individual unit;
Figure 5 is a sectional view taken on the line VV of Figure 4;
Figure 6 is a plan view similar to Figure 1 but showing a different embodiment 01' the invention;
Figure '7 is a vertical section taken on the line VII-VII of Figure 6; and
Figure 8 is a section taken on the line VIII-VIII of Figure 6.
Referring more particularly to the drawing the reference numeral 2 indicates the narrow coils of strip which are to be loaded into the car. In preparin the load, several of these narrow coils 2 are mounted one on top of the other openings 22 in the coils.
2 and strapped to a stool 4 which consists of cross members 6 and skids 8. The coils 2 are fastened together and to the stool 4 by means of straps 9 as shown in Figures 4 and 5. Each individual unit l0 constructed in this manner is of convenient size and weight for handling by crane or truck. In preparing the car for the load, end cleats l2 are spiked to the car floor H to limit the longitudinal travel of the load. Guide strips l6 are laid loosely in position along each side of the car and two units 10 are then placed at one end of the car and centered therein with their skids 8 extending longitudinally thereof. The guides l6 are then closed in against the skids 8 at that point and spiked to the car floor It. These two individual units are then drawn tightly together and fastened by end cross straps l8. Two more units ID are lined up adjacent the first pair or groups of units with their skids 8 also extendin longitudinally of the car and the guides l6 closed in against the skids of the second group of units I0 and spiked in place. The second two units are then drawn tightly to the first two and strapped thereto by short longitudinal straps 20 which extend through the The second pair of units are strapped together by straps 24. In like manner additional pairs of units are progressively fastened together and to each preceding pair of units throughout the length of the car to formone solid major unit which is free to move a limited amount longitudinall of the car. If desired, the first and last units on each side of the car may be fastened together by means of a longitudinal strap 26 which passes through the openings 22 in the units. After the loading is completed, cleats 28 are wedged between car stakes 3G and guide strips I6 as another factor of safety. With the load assembled in the car in this manner it forms a unit floating load mounted on skids 8 between guide-strips it which makes it possible for the load to slide longitudinally in the car and dissipate the impact energy from jolting and bumping by means of the friction of the skids on the car floor. The end cleats l2 limit the travel of the load if it should slide too far in either direction. In assembling a load where the units are piled two or morehigh, the method of loading is practically the same except that the upper layers will be strapped to the bottom layer as shown in Figures 2 and 3. By assembling the load in this manner, the blocking and lashings are standard and the loading and blocking is completed quickly, cheaply and safely without damage to the carriers equipment or to the coils. In unloading, it is easy to locate the blocking and lashing so that customer can quickly and safely unload the car without damage to the car or to the coils.
In the embodiment shown in Figures 6, 7 and 8, the loadis prepared in the same manner as in the embodiment described above, except that each pair or group of units is fastened to the succeeding pair by means of diagonal straps 34 in place of the straps20 and 24.
While two embodiments of my invention have been shown and described it will be apparent that other adaptations and modifications may be made without departing from the scope of the following claims.
