FOLDING STOCK- SHIPPING CAGE.
Application filed January 24, 1885.
To @ZZ whom it may concern,.-
Beit known that we, RUssnLL L. SMITH and CHARLEs P. MILLER, citizens of the United States, residing at Savannah P. O., in the county of Andrew and State of Missouri, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in a Folding Stock-Shipping Cage; and we do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and usev the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters and gures of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specication.
Our invention relates to a folding stockcage for shipping stock; and the object of our improvement is to provide a crate or cage which is ventilated, light, convenient, durable, and much less cumbersome than any now in use, and one which can be returned after use with small cost. `We attain these objects by the mechanism illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 represents a stock-cage in com plete shipping order. Fig. 2 represents the tloor, side, end boards, and feed-trough. Fig. 3 is a view of the stock-cage opened ready for folding. Fig. 4 represents the cage after be folded for storage or return after being used.
Similar letters referto similar parts throughout the several views.
The letter e represents the door of the stockcage, as shown in Fig. 2, which is composed of one or more broad boards.
Letters b b b are the three sills upon which the door rests.
c is the higher side board, which is secured to the door c by means of nails or screws. e is the other side board, which is secured to the other side of the iioor in the same manner as c, but is not so high or broad as the other side board by one inch.
f f are the two end boards, and are secured by means of nails or screws to and at the end of the floor a, and to the side boards c and e.
g and g2 are the sides of the stock-cage, and are composed of a frame made oi pieces about one-half or an inch thick and from two to six inches wide, as required by the size ofthe cage,
"LEC'FXCATOE forming part of LettersvPatent; No. 318,812, dated May 26, 1885.
(Model.)
with woven wire or iron bars used as panels, or to lill the vacant spaces. These wire panels may be set in and fastened to the frame in any manner preferred; or the frame may be made oi' two half-inch pieces or boards with the edges of the wire plates or panels pressed between them, and the said pieces then to be securely nailed together with brad or wrought nails, thus securely holding the wire panels between the several pieces of the frame. These sides are connected to the side boards, cand e, by means or" hinges on theinside. Said hinges are to be fastened to the lower part of the frame of the sides, extending down across the side boards to the door, being then turned, making an angle, so as to be screwed to the side board and iioor also, thus filling the oiiice of hinges and braces. The ends or doors I1 h are hung by means of hinges to the lid or cover i', the hinges being fastened on the outside of the cage, the inside corners of the end of the cover i and doors h h being beveled' cit" so that the doors can be swung inside and past the upper edge ofthe end boards, ff, su lliciently far to admit feed for the stock in the cage through the' aperture thus made.
i is the cover or lid of the cage, and is composed of a frame made similar to the sides, with wire or iron bars to cover the spa-ces, and is connected by means of hinges to the upper and inside edge of the side g', and when shut down or ready for use is to be securely fastened to the upper inside edge of side g2 by means of bolts and taps or other convenient means. The ends or doors are to be fastened by means of sliding keys or other means to the center of the end boards, ff.
j is a board secured by hinges about six inches from the end board, f, to the iioor ain such manner as to be raised, forming a feedtrough in the end of the cage; or this may be dispensed with and a common trough used.
This stock-cage can be made of any kind of wood for frame and floor, with woven wire or small iron bars to iill spaces.l
The general construction of the cage is such that the doors hh can be raised up and turned over so as to lie iiat upon the top or lid of the cage "L, then the lid z', with the doors h it so folded, as aforesaid, can be folded and dropped down on the inside of side giwhicncanthen,
ICO
with h h and ,be tu rned and folded down upon l[he floor a, and the other'side, g, can then be folded down upon and over them, thus reducing the whole cage and structure to a mere 5 block about six or seven inches thick and the necessary breadth and length.
We do not claim the art and process of folding the cage.
We claim- 1o 1. A folding crate with a bottom having one side higher than the others, and having hinged thereto the beck and front, the Jrop hinged to the front, the ends hinged to the top7 as and for the purposes set forth.
