BARREL-RACK F'OR STORING AND AGING WHISKY.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 271,892, dated February 6, 1883.
' Applieationled May 2,1882. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known thatwe, JOHN MGMURTRY and CLAUDE M. JOHNSON, both citizens of the United States, and residents of Lexington, in the county of Fayette and State of Kentucky, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Barrel-Racks for Storing and Aging Whisky, of which the following is 'a specification.
Our invention relates to a swinging frame built in and forming a part of a storing-rack on which barrels containing spirits are deposited.
Our invention consists essentially in the combination, with skids arranged one above the other for carrying the barrels 'or vessels, of two or more fseries of vertically-disposed links arranged at each side of the skids and' pivotall y conbected with the same, each series of `links being pivoted together and supported on -bearings arranged intermediate the ends `of the links, and means for swinging the links,
whereby theskids are caused to alternately vibrate in reverse directions, and thereby avoid shocks to the building. y
The invention is clearly illustrated in the laccompanying drawings, in which- Figure lis a' side elevation of two racks with our invention applied thereto. Fig. 2 is a cross-section on line w as, Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is an elevationof the links to which the skids are pivoted. Fig. 4 is an enlarged view, showingthe manner of pivoting the skids to the links. Fig. 5 is a modification of the swinging mechanism shown in Fig.1, and Fig. 6 is r"an elevation of a portion of Fig. 1`, with the front posts removed to 'illustrate the pivoted `links and the manner of vibrating the trays.
A represents the door of an ordinary warehouse; A', the joists supporting the floor.
B B representposts of anupright rack.
l There are preferably six posts to each rackframe. Two frames are shown as operated in unison.
D C represent skids, two of which are placed parallel to each other on each side of the frame for the barrels to rest upon. The skids are supported at each side by two or more series of vertically-disposed links, D D, which arel connected with the trays by means of pivot bolts H. Each one ot' the links is supported posed of abolt secured tothe post B,on whichY bearing the link can swing.
F represents crossties for uniting skids C together to strengthen them and cause them to move inunison. It will be seen that each intermediate its ends by a bearing, E, compair of skids C C form a rack on ywhich a tier y of. barrels is laid, and that these skids are in series, one above the other, and being attached vto the links by pivots H at the joint, each frame, when swung outwardly by applying motion to the links, moves in a direction directly opposite to the movement of the tier next above or below it.
K K represent connecting rods pivoted at one end to links Dand at the other to a collar or ring, Z, on cam L,- which is keyed to cillated.
We claim- In an apparatus for aging liquor, the combi-` nation, with skids arranged one above the other for carrying the barrels or vessels, of two or more series ot vertically-disposed links arranged at each side of the skids and pivotally `connected with the same, each series of links being pivoted together and supported on bearings Varranged intermediate the ends of the links, and means for swinging the links, sub stantially as described. i
In testimony whereof we have hereunto set our hands in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
