8 Claims. (Cl. 294-110) This invention relates generally, to apparatus for handling loads or equipment which are inaccessible to direct personal contact due, for example, to the high temperature of the load, or picking up or placing the same in areas difficult to access by operating personnel, or where the load consists of containers of dangerous chemicals, etc., and the invention relates, more specifically, to a novel load handling apparatus that can be suitably carried by a building crane and/or lifting chain and cable mechanism and which apparatus is suitable, for example, for lifting material or parts to be heat treated into a high temperature furnace and thereafter for moving the material or parts into a quenching tank. Such load handling apparatus embodies novel coupling means whereby the load may be coupled to the building crane lifting cable and uncoupled therefrom without the necessity of using manual contact with the load.
In the heat treatment of materials and particularly the heat treatment of large members such as airplane or missile parts it is often necessary to pick up the material or members and raise the same into a heat treating furnace wherein the material is heated to a desired high temperature and thereafter the material or members are lowered into a quenching tank, which operations must be performed without operating personnel being present in the immediate vicinity of the material or members being treated due to high temperatures existing in and about the furnace. Also, in the handling of dangerous chemicals it is desirable that operating personnel do not get too close to the material being handled.
It is therefore the principal object of the present invention to provide a novel load handling apparatus that is capable of receiving material or members to be processed or handled in a suitable convenient place whereupon the apparatus is adapted to be picked up by an overhead crane and/or lifting chain and cable mechanism and moved to a point such as into a furnace where the material or members are to be used or operated upon and which may be moved through a series of desired operations without the material or members being directly handled by personnel, the novel load handling apparatus being designed so as to withstand high temperatures, injurious chemicals, and other diflicult environmental uses.
A feature of the present invention is to provide a novel coupling member that is adapted to automatically couple a load to a cable or chain of a lifting apparatus such as a building crane when desired and which is also capable of automatically disconnecting the load from the cable or chain as desired, whereby loads may be handled conveniently without personnel coming in contact therewith.
Still another feature of the present invention is to provide a novel load handling apparatus of the above character having spider members for carrying a load, together with suspension rods and adjustable hold down 2 means for retaining the load in a desired position upon the load handling apparatus.
These and other features and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent after a perusal of the following specification taken in connection with the accompanying drawings wherein,
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of the novel load handling apparatus of this invention,
Fig. 2 is a partial transverse sectional view of the upper spider and coupling member shown in Fig. 1,
Fig. 3 is a reduced fragmentary view taken along the line 3-3 of Fig. 2 looking in the direction of the arrows,
Fig. 4 is an enlarged fragmentary view partly in section illustrating the manner of inserting the cable carrying coupling pin into or out of the upper spider of the apparatus,
Fig. 5 is a view similar to Fig. 4 taken along line 55 of Fig. 3 .and illustrates the initial movement of the coupling pin preparatory to removing the same from the coupling member, and
Fig. 6 "shows the coupling pin actually being withdrawn from the coupling member.
Referring now to the drawings, Fig. 1 illustrates the novel load handling apparatus as a whole, said apparatus comprising a coupling pin 1 adapted to be attached at its upper end to the cable or chain of any suitable supporting and carrying means such as a building crane and/or a lifting chain and cable mechanism. The pin 1 hangs downward from the supporting cable or chain and is adapted to enter the central opening 2 in a hollow hub 3 of a supporting member illustrated as spider 4- which may be termed the upper spider of the load handling apparatus. The spider 4 has a plurality of radially extending arms 5 provided with apertures 6 at varying radial distances to which may be removably connected depending supporting rods 7 as by pins or bolts. The number of rods 7 employed and the radial position of the same will depend upon the material or members carried. In Fig. 1 three of these rods are shown and have their lower ends connected to a lower spider 8 having a central apertured hub 28; which spider is illustrated as of somewhat smaller diameter than the upper spider 4 for certain installations as where the lower spider is adapted to be inserted in a quenching tank as when quenching material carried by the spider 8. This quenching tank may be of the type disclosed and claimed in copending application Serial No. 794,029, filed February 18, 1959, for quenching apparatus in which one of the present applicants, Harold E. Mescher, is a joint applicant both of which applications are owned by a common assignee. in such case the upper spider 4 is adapted to have the outer ends of its arms 5 rest upon the load ring of the quenching tank. Since the apertures 6 are distributed radially along the arms 5 of the spiders, the rods 7 may be adjusted radially outward or inward depending upon the size of the load or member to be quenched. A hold down assembiy, comprising a hub 9and radial arms 19 adjustable as to length is shown positioned between the two spiders 4 and 8 for retaining the work or part down upon the spider 8 in use, the outer ends of the arms 10 being bifurcated at 111 for receiving pins insertable into any one of a series of vertical apertures 12 in the rods 7.
The lower end of the coupling pin 1 is provided with an enlarged conical projection or end portion 13 that in descending through aperture 2 is adapted to engage and actuate a pair of opposed substantially C-shaped holding bars or members 14 downwardly and outwardly to accommodate the pin 1, see especially Fig. 3, which bars are fixedly carried by bell cranklevers 15 pivoted as by pins 16 upon the spider 4. With the coupling pin 1 fully inserted into the spider 4 as shown inFig. 2 preparatory to lifting the spider and the load, the sub:
stant-iallyi opposed holding bars =14" engage the: lowerportion of the coupling pin 1 directly behind-ashoulder" 17 provided by the conical 'end portion 13; Sincethe upperportion of conical endportion- 13' is: somewhatlargerthan-the'pin 1-- the step or shoulder 17 is provided for engaging the holding; b'ars-so-tha-t thesebars- Fig. 4 shows the I conical; endportion 13- of the pin 2 1 as it enters or leaves thespider 4.= It willb'enoted as, theypinl islowered, the coniealendportibnlii willstrike the opposed semicylindri'ca-l edgesof' the opposed holding bars 14 and will swin'g these bars downwardly about their pivots 16 sufficiently toenable the conical portion to pass throughthe substantial cylindrical opening-e provided between these bars whereupon the overhanging; weighted portions 14' of'these bars will serve to swing the-bars inwardly and engage the pin l directly behindttheshoulden17 as shown in- Fig. 2;; so that the cable may then-"beraised effecting the liftinglot the loadand=the movement of thesame by. the crane to any desired'position such as inside a furnace or; effeetingthe lowering'of the load as when' it isdesired to lower the same into a quenching tank or pit.
When itis desired; to uncouple the coupling pin 1 fromthe spider 4-'and;the loadcarried thereby, the crane operator will: lower the-load: supportingv spider=-8idown upon a suitable support.

It. will, be. noted thatthe} novel load handling apparatus of. this 1nven-. tion isrof simple construction using sturdy, ruggedpart-s which: can. withstand highv temperatures, acids, etc.,
without injury so that. the same has a long. life and is 'reliable in use. Since the holdingzbars 14-.carry the load. directly in shear, these bars are not deformed by high temperatures in use.
