Ladenthin, Kingsley, Iowa, and twenty-five per cent to Herbert W. Greenwaldt, Le Mars, Iowa ApplicationJuly 14, 1950, Serial No. 173,926 (01.119-61) 6 Claims. 1
This invention relates to new and useful improvements in feeding troughs and the primary object of the present invention is to provide a feeding trough construction that is quickly and readily applied to or removed from a fence or the like in a convenient manner.
Another very important object of the present invention is to provide a. feeding trough including a, U-shaped resilient bracket, supporting a pair of pans, and which bracket is slipped over a, horizontal fence rail to yieldingly grip the rail and retain the trough in position on the rail.
A further object of the present invention is to provide a feeding trough for hogs and the like that embodies an attaching bracket removably supporting a pair of pans that are quickly and readily removed from the bracket for cleaning.
A still further aim of the present invention is to provide a feeding trough that is simple and practical in construction, strong and reliable in use, small and compact in structure, inexpensive to manufacture, and otherwise well adapted for the purposes for which the same is intended.
Other objects and advantages reside in the details of construction and operation as more fully hereinafter described and claimed, reference being had to the accompanying drawings forming part hereof, wherein like numerals refer to like parts throughout, and in which:
Figure 1 is a perspective view' showing the present invention in use;
Figure 2- is an enlarged perspective view of the present invention per se; and,
Figure 3 is a further enlarged longitudinal vertical sectional view taken substantially on the plane of section line 3-3 of Figure 2 but showin a portion of a fence, in cross-section, receiving the attaching bracket.
Referring now to the drawings in detail, wherein for the purpose of illustration, there is disclosed a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the numeral l represents a resilient, U-shaped attaching bracket including a pair of spaced leg portions 12 and I4 that are joined at their lower ends by a web I6.
A pair of substantially L-shaped resilient members [8 and 20 are associated with the bracket Ill. The lower horizontal end portions 22 and 24 of the members l8 and 20 are positioned within pans 26 and 28 and the upper offset end portions 30 and 32 of the members l8 and 20 rest against the leg portions I2 and I4. The end portions 30 and 32 are each provided with upper and lower apertures 34 and 36 that receive upper and lower horizontally disposed 2 threaded rods 38 and 40 on each leg portion l2 and I4.
In practical use of the present invention, the bracket I0 is slipped up over the lower edge of a fence rail or the like S with the leg portions I2 and I4 yieldingly bearing against the outer faces of the rail S to resiliently support the trough upon the rail, and with the web l6 and the pans 26 and 28 resting on the ground.
The pans are readily removed for cleaning by merely removing the wing nuts and pulling outwardly upon the L-shaped members.
In view of the foregoing description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings it is believed that a clear understanding of the construction, operation and advantages of the device will be quite apparent to those skilled in this art. A more detailed description is accordingly deemed unnecessary.
It is to be understood, however, that even though there is herein shown and described a preferred embodiment of the invention the same is susceptible to certain changes fully comprehended by th spirit of the invention as herein described and the scope of the appended claims.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new is:
1. A feeding trough for hogs and the like, said trough comprising a U-shaped attaching bracket including a pair of leg portions and a web joining said leg portions, a substantially L-shaped member detachably secured to each leg portion of said bracket, means centering said L-shaped members on said leg portions, and a pair of pans held against said bracket by said L-shaped members.
2. The combination of claim 1 wherein said L- shaped members are positioned within said pans, said L-shaped members including upper offset end portions resting against said leg portions, and said pans including upstanding flanges resting against said leg portions.
3. The combination of claim 1 wherein said centering means includes a pair of threaded rods secured to and projecting laterally from said leg portions, said L-shaped members having apertures receiving said rods.
4. A feeding trough for hogs and the like comprising a. U-shaped attaching bracket including vertical leg portions and a web joining the lower ends of said leg portions, upper and lower threaded rods secured to each of said leg portions and projecting horizontally from said leg portions, a pair of L'-shaped members having offset upper vertical end portions, said upper vertical end portions each having upper and lower aperhorizontal end portions; disposed within said pans, and said pans including upstanding periph, 1;.
eral flanges forced against said legportion by said L-shaped members. 7. a i
5. A feed pan holder for hogs and the like corn- 4 prising a, U-shaped resilient bracket. and a substantially L-shaped retainer having an offset vertical end portion detachably secured to the bracket.
6. The combination of claim 5 and centering means between said L-shaped retainer and said bracket.
