DUMPINc-WAGON;
ESPECIFICA'ION forming part of Letters Patent No. 296,917, dated April l5, 1884.
Application nica November 2a, ists. (No model.)
' IO bricks, gravel, dirt, and like substances and ,articles which shall afford great facility for restoring the bottom to its normal position after unloading, and maintaining it there.
W'e will describe in detail a wagon embody- [5 ingour improvement, and then point out the improvement in the claim.
ln the accompanying drawings, Figure l is a side elevation of a wagon or truck-embody, ingourimprovement,thewheelsbeingomitted.
2O Fig. 2 is a plan of the same, and Fig. 3 is a l longitudinal section'thereof.
Similar letters of reference designate corresponding parts in all the gures. 1
The body of thc wagon or truck has a strong 25, frame at the base composed of sills A and end piecesB, made preferably of stout timber. The sides C and ends D of the body aregpreferably made of wood, and have secured to them by screws or bolts a strong iron rods E,
O which at the lower ends are rounded and screw-threaded, pass through the frame A B, and have nuts b applied to them below said frame. These rods not only strengthen the sides and ends of the body, sothat they will resist strains to which they may be subjected,
.but also render them so strong that th'ey act as trusses to strengthen the frame A B.
F designates the rear axle. It may be secured to holsters G, extending across the body,
4o of the vehicle in any approved manner. As
shown, it is secured to the sills A by iron braces H.
.The front axle, G', has affixed to it a bolster,
I, on which'is mounted the lower section, J,
4Q5 of afth-wheel, J J. The upper section, J,. of thisiifth-wheel is secured to a bolster,
.whichis affixed to the body of the vehicle near the front end. The upper section, J', of the'flfthavheel is made in the form of an an- 5o nular gutter; or, in other words, has circular lianges c c', that extend downwardly around 'lower section, J, of the fth-wheel., Therefore any substance or article falling on the fifth-wheel will be prevented from entering between the sections thereof so as to interfere with their operation.
Besides the sills A and end pieces, B, o f the frame ofthe vehicle-body,th ere is a cross-piece, K. Between the sills A, the end pieces, B. and the cross-piece K are two rectangular openings, with which are combined two bottom sections, L L. These bottom sections severally con-'ist of stout frames d, which may be made of wood, and ilooring e, that may be made of wooden boarding. These bottom sections are mounted on rock-shafts L2, that maybe made of metal or wood, and are journaled in bearings L3, preferably made of iron,attacl1ed to the sills A. The shaft L2 of the section L is thus journaled to the sills A a short distance in rear of the front axle, and the shaft L2 of the section L a short distance in rear of the hind axle. Both sections have theirfront and rear edges chamfered off or inclined, so that they may be rocked or swung in such direction that they will descend at the rear edges, and ascend at their front edges through the openings in which they tit when horizontal or approximately so. Vhen thus swung or rocked, the contents of the vehicle-body will be dumped through the said openings just in rear of the axles. Thus the Whole load may be dumped very quickly, even though it consists of large pieces of stone. The dumping of the load back of the axle is advantageousnot only because it will clear the axles, but also because it will be less liable to strike the animals harnessed to the vehicle than if dumped otherwise. Ifdesirable, the portions of the sections L L in rear of the shafts Lf-mayhave more top surface than the portions in front of the shafts, so as to facilitate rock-ing or swinging them in the direction to which we have just referred. This will render, the operation of dumping a load easier than it would be otherwise. The shafts L2, near one end, have arms L4 rigidly aflixed to them, and these arms are connected by pins c to a rod, L5. The rod L5,
at the forward end,is connected by a pin, f, to
a lever, L6. fulcrurned by a pin, g, to one of the sills A. The upper part of the lever may be se- IOO cured when inoved forward to its fullest extent by :t notched resilient Catch-bar, M, which is rigidly ufiixed near one end to the Wagoubody, in order that it shall retain the sections L L 5 in the proper positions to support :L load. When the load is to be dumped, the lever is disengaged from the catolrber and manipulated so as to rook the sections in the manner before explained. The dumping of a load can 1o be performed very quickly with this vehicle.
Vliat We cla-im as our invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
The, combination of the parts L L/, journals L2, supported in bearings on the frame, the rod L5, pivotzillyeonnected by pins ce to :mns i 5 L4, the lever L, adapted to be swung forward f and backward to impe-rt zr rocking motion to the parts L L, and the` resilient bar M, rigidly aiiixed neer one end to the side of a Wagonbody for locking the lever L, so as to secure 2o the parts L L in position to support :L loud.
