DUMPING-WAGONJ SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 276,098, dated April 17, 1883.
Application filed December 11, 1882. iNo model.) i
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, MINER VAN AUKEN, otl Utica, in the county of Oneida and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Dumpingddlagons; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description ot the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it pertains to make and use it, reference being had to the accompanyingdrawings, which form part of this specitcation.
My invention relates to an improvement in dumping-wagons; and it consists, first, in a body which is hung or pivoted upou suitable supports at, above, or below its center, and which body is provided with suitable slots in which the pivotal bearings catch, so that when the body is (lumped it will be given a lateral movement, so as to give the load a throwin the direction desired, and by the jar or coucussion so received clean the body of all material which may he adhering to it; second, in suitable bearings which are to be applied to the holsters of an ordinary wagon, and which support the body, as will be more fully de-v scribed hereinafter.
' views of one of the saddles.
Theobject of myinventiou is to provide suitable attachments wherebyan y ordinary lumberwagon can be converted into adumping-wagon with very little trouble or expense.
Figures l, 2 are end views of a wagon embodying my invention. Figs. 3, 4 are plan Figs. 5,6 are end views of one form of the wagon-body. Fig. 7 is a side elevation ot a wagon-body embodying' my invention. Figs. 8,9, 10 are detail views ofthe same.
Any ordinary lumber-wagon provided with the usual holsters and standards is to be used in carrying my invention into practice,though wagons may be made especially for this purpose, it' so desired. Upon each bolster is to be placed a saddle, A, which may either consist fof a solid board having a groove, B, cut in each of its ends where it is to tit over the iny ner edge ot the standard, or the saddle may be composed of three thicknesses of board, which are nailed, clamped, or otherwise secured together; or the saddle may consistof oulytwo thicknesses ot' board, and have a cleat, D, placed between each of its ends, and a central piece, E, placed under the pivotal point.
The cleats D can be made adjustable back and forth between the ends of the two boards which form the saddle by means ofslots through which the clamping-bolts pass. By making these cleats adjustable back and forth the saddle is adjustable to different widths ot' wagons, and all noise and rattling or movementot1 the saddle is prevented. As the bear ing F for the pivot upon which the bodyswings is placed upon the center ot' the top edge of the saddle A, where the saddle is made ot' two thicknesses of board, a central board, E, will be placed at the center of the saddle for the purpose of forming an additional support for the pivot and strengthening the saddle.
I do not limit myself to any particular construction of the saddle, for this may be varied in construction in a number ot' different ways without departing` from the spirit ot' my invention. If the saddle is made ot' one solid piece of wood and has a groove made in each end, these grooves may be made ot' any desired depth, and then the saddle can be adjusted to any width of wagon by means ot' sticks or similar devices, which are slipped between the ends ofthe grooves and theinner edges ot the standards.
The body G may either be made semicircular iu cross-section, triangular, four-sided, or any other shape which is best adapted to the use for which the wagon is to be employed, and will be hung either upon shortl pivotal bearings secured upon the tops of the saddles by means ot suitable boxes or other fastenings, or one long shaft, which will extend from one saddle to the other, may be used. When itis desired that the body shall not swing, buttons or other similar devices, H, may be secured to the tops ofthe saddles and made to catch over the top edges of the body, so as to hold the bodyalways in position; but as a general thing the body will always be left to swing freely upon its pivots, so that the load will seek its equilibrium in whatever position the rest ot'the wagon may be placed. Instead ot' the buttons H, (shown in Fig. 1,) a hook and projection, l, as shown in Fig. 2, may be employed for this purpose. The hook will not hold the body as rigidly in position as the buttons, but will allow it a slight play, whilel it prevents it from moving to any great extent. rlhrough the end ot' the body, or made in suitable castings,
which may be applied to the ends of the body, are suitable slots or recesses, into which the short journals or pivots project or through which the long shaft passes. These slots may be made vertical, horizontal, or at slight angles, as shown in the different figures of the drawings, and by means of these slots, when the body is tilted by means of the handle J, having its upper end suitablycurved, the body will be given a lateral play, so as to throw the load in the direction desired. As the body moves laterally or downward when it is tilted, as the pivots or shaft reach the outer or lower ends of the slots the body is stopped in its movementwith a sufficient concussion to effectnally clean it from the soft adhesive matter which maybe clinging to it. The sides of the body need not be straight, but may be bulged at the center, or given any other shape which will best adapt it for the purpose for which'the body is used. In case it is not desired to use slots, iron bars L, preferably shaped as shown in Figs. 5,6, maybe used, and which bars will have their upper ends shaped as shown, so as to form the slots in which the pivots will move. A bearing-block, N, will then be placed between the upper ends of the rods L, and supported upon a suitable spring, M, as shown. While the wagon is swinging in its natural position this bearing-block N will be forced up against the pivot; but when the body is tilted the block N will be forced outward against the coiled spring M, upon which it is supported.
This coil-spring M will beheld in any suitable groove, box, casting, or other means provided to receive it, and will by its pressure against the pivot help the body to resume its position.
In order to enable the wagon to be tilted from either side, suitable cleats pr loops are formed upon it to receive the lower ends of the handles or tilting-levers, which may be provided with spring-snaps or any other suitable devices for the purpose of preventing them from being easily displaced. These 1eversl will be applied to one or both sides of the body. Where the slots are made at a very slight angle there will be suitable enlargements at the center and at each end of the slot, as shown.
In order to prevent the body from having an cndwise movement, or from swinging too freely upon its pivots, so as to wear or otherwise injure the saddles, a suitable friction-wheel, a spring, or other device may be fastened to each one of the saddles, and thus prevent the end of the body from coming in contact with it.
The drivers seat will be preferably constructed as shown in Fig. 7, and be adapted to be swung forward out ofthe way of the body when it is being tilted.
Having thus described my invention, I claimf l. In a dumping-wagon, the combination of the body provided with a slot in each end above its center, a supporting shaft or pivots which pass through or catch in the slots, and a support placed upon the bolster ofthe wagon, substantially as shown.
2. A saddle provided with adjustable cleats at its ends, so as to be adapted to bolsters of dilerent lengths, substantially as set forth.
3. A saddle grooved or recessed at each of its ends, combined with a wagon-body, slotted as shown, and suitable pivots which are secured upon the top of the saddle, substantially as specified.
4. The combination of a wagon-body having a slot in each end, supports A, detachable from the bolsters, pivots which pass through the slots, and levers J, which pass through suitable eyes, guides, or sockets secured tothe sides of the frame, and by which the body is tilted, substantially as specified.
5. The combination of a suitable saddle which is applied to the bolster of a wagon, suitable supporting-pivots, a tilting wagon-bed, and a friction-wheel for preventing the body from striking against the saddle, substantially as shown.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
MINER VAN AUKEN.
