SPECIFICATION.
TO ALL WHOM IT MAY CONGERN:
`Be it known, that I, JOSEPH O. FARRELL, of' Boston, in the county of Suffolk.
and State of Massachusetts, have invented an improvement in the A'lail-Boards of Wagons, and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings making a part of this specification, in whichi Figure I is a side elevation of the rear part of a wagon body having my improved tail-board appliedto it.
Figure 2 is a View ofthe rear en d of figure I.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in both figures. i
This invention consists in combining with a tail-board, which is hinged to the bottom of the wagon body, two sector arms having notches in them at suitable distances apart, and two spring latches so arranged as to catch into the notches in the sector arms, and lock the tail-board in any desired position, as will be hereinafter fully explained.
To enable those skilled in the art to make and use my invention, I will proceed to describe its construction and operation.
A represents the rear part of a ycommon light wagon body, and B is the tail board or gate thereof. This tail-board is simply a straight board equal in length 2 n. s. PATENT caltanet-N0. 1,1559.
- y Far'rells Iwqorovement in Tail-Boards of Wagons.
to the width of the wagon body A, and in width the height of the body from the top ofthe floor to the top of' the side-boards.l This board B 1s hinged by strap hinges a a to a transverse bar Z2, which'bar is secured at its eXtreme ends to eyes c c. The straps ct a are bolted on the back partof the board B,/near'th e ends thereof', so that they serve as cleats for strengthening the board. These hinges' 'allow the tail-board, when shut, to t tightly against the back part of the wagon body, as shown in figures 1 and 2 of` the drawings.
C C are two sector bars, which are secured'in a suitable mannerat one of their ends to the ends of' the tail-board` B. f These two bars C O project inwards and,` pass through the staples d d on each side 'of the wagon body, which staples are secured to the angular strengthening plates e e.; These staples allow the'sector bars C. C to Work freely through them in letting down or shutting the tail-board l' B; and the staples d d keep the bars C C in their proper places against the sides ofthe body A, and also support the tail-board, ,when it is let down to lits fullest extent, in consequencefof lthe hooked ends of ilthesectors abutting against the staples, and preventing the bars C from being drawn down any further.
.On each side, and at the extreme rear end yoffthe body A, is a vertical bolt D, 'which has its upper end bevelled so as to ibi-n1 a nosin-g. The upper ends of both bolts D Dv pass through staples g g', whichkeep them in place; and above the staples g g pins h t'project from the bolts, which prevent the ends of the bolts from' t slipping down through these staples.
The lower ends of bolts D D are pivoted to short arms it', which project'out from a rock shaft E, passing transversely across the bottom of the wagon body,l
shown in gure 2 ofthe drawings, and having its bearings in eyes 7c k, which are A securedvunderneath .thevwagon bottom. l A curved handle portion p projects from one of' the arms t' a suitable distance so as not to be in the Way, and by ldepressing this arm p both bolts D are depressed simultaneously. The ends of the bolts pass into the angularl notches r r r, which are out into the lower edges of the A sector bars C C, at regular intervals apart, and thus lock these sector bars and the tail-board in a firm position.' These bolts D D are acted upon by a spring Gr, which bears them upwards and holds them in the notches as above described.
\ The operation ot' my invention dis as follows: To move the tail-board froma -vertical plane to a horizontalplane it is only necessary to depress'the boltsy D D,
so that the sector" bars C C will be released therefrom, when the tail-board can be readily adjusted to the desired position. I 4 v 7 To secure the tail-board in any other position the bolts D D are allowed to catch' into the notches r r, in the sec'torbars C C, when the tail-board is in the desired position. It will thus be seen,'that the board B may be secured and rmly supported in a vertical and 'in a horizontal plane, and at anyintermediate angle. In
4 closing up the tail-board the bevellcd endsot` the' bolts D D will allowthe notches on bars O C. to pass without obstruction, so that`- it is lnot necessary-to depress the bolts in closing the tail-board. v

' Having thus eseribed my invention,what I claim as new, nd desire to secure by Letters Patent', v V
The notched sector bers C C, vertical spring bolts D D arms i z', and shaft Gr, arranged and combined with hinged ta1-board B, and operating as a self-look, as herein set forth. Y f
