COAL-TU B.
SFECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 324,484, dated August 18, 1885.
A pplication filed February 24, 1985. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, JOHN PIPHER, of Hoboken, in the county of Hudson and State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Goal-Tubs, of which the following is a specification.
This invention has reference to improvements in coal-tubs of that class by which coal is conveyed to the holds of vessels; and the invention consists of a coal-tub the body of which is made of three partsa bottom made in one piece with the front and back wall, and two side walls, which latter are riveted to overlapping portions of the bottom, front, and
I 5 back piece. The back wall is made angular, so that its upper part is parallel, or nearly so,
with the front wall. The coal-tub is supported on longitudinal bot-tom rails having front and hind walls, said rails being riveted to the 2 bottom and attached by front straps and rear braces to the body. The bail is pivoted to the side walls of the body and provided with a gravity-latch, that is pivoted to an enlarged and slotted part of the bail and adapted to en- 2 5 gage an anti-friction roller at one side of the tub. A fixed stop near the bottom of the tub stops the bail when the tub is dumped.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 represents a side elevation of my improved 3o coal-tub, partlyin section. Fig. 2 is a vertical longitudinal section of the same. Fig. 3 is a side view of the tub, shown in tilted position for dumping its contents. Fig. 4 is a rear View drawn on a smaller scale, and Fig. 5 is a detail front view of one side of the suspensionbail.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
Referring to the drawings, A represents a coal-tub, which is made of sheet metal of suit able thickness, and composed of three parts a main part, A, that forms the back, bottom, and front, and two side parts, A which latter are riveted to overlapping side flanges, a a, of
the main part A. The rear wall of the tub A is made angular, the upper part being parallel, or nearly so, to the front. This facilitates the charging of the tub and the dumping, and increases the capacity of the same. The upper edge of the tub is re-enforced by arirn, a, that is riveted or otherwise fastened to the body of the tub. The tub A is supported on longitudinal bottom rails, B B, each ofwhich is provided with a front and bind wheel, I) b, the rails B B being flanged and riveted to the bottom of the tub, and attached by front straps, b to the front wall of the tub and by hind braces, if, to the rear wall of the same. The wheeled bottom rails, B B, facilitate the moving of the tub on the ground. Lugs d at the front part of the tub support a fifth or smaller roller, (1, by means of which the tub can be readily moved for dumping along the ground in connection with thefront wheels, as shown in Fig. 3. The tub is provided at both sides with a handle, 0, for conveniently manipulating the same and moving the same forward and dumping it. The tub A is suspended by a bail, O, that is I pivoted to the side wal1s,A the bail being enlarged at oneside, and slotted and provided with a gravity-latch, E, that is pivoted to the slot of the enlarged part of the bail. The enlarged part c of the bail protects the latch and prevents it from coming in contact with projecting bodies, so as to be permanently released. The latch E engages an anti-friction roller, 6, which is supported by a lug, 6 that is riveted to one of the side walls A of the tub. The gravity-latch E is provided with an upwardlyeXtending arm, 0 to which a rope may be attached, so that the latch can be readily released from the anti-friction roller 6' for dumping the tub. \Vhen the tub is dumped, it is prevented from tilting by a stop, f, attached to one side, as shown in Fig. 5 and i-n-dotted lines in Figs. 1, 2, and
The advantages of my improved coal-tub are, strength and simplicity of construction, an increased capacity, owing to the angular shape of the back, the ease of moving the same on the ground by the four wheels of the bottom rails and the front roller, and the facility of dumping the same.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- 1. A coal-tub having bottom rails provided with front and hind wheels and front straps and rear braces for connecting the rails to the body of the tub, substantially as set forth.
2. The combination of a coal-tub having a frontroller, bottom rails having front and hind wheels, and front straps and rear braces connecting the bottomrails with the body of the tub, substantially as described.
The combination of n eonltub, a bail piv- 2i iixed lug attached to the side wall and prooted t0 the side walls of the same and provided with an enlarged slotted part, a gravitylatch pivoted to said slot-ted part, and a fixed 111g attached to the side wall of the tub and having an anti-friction roller, substantially as set forth.
4. The combination of a coal-tub, a bail pivoted to the side walls of the Sitl'llG and having an enlarged slotted part at one side thereof, a gravity-latch pivoted to said slotted part,
vided with an anti'friction roller, and a fixed stop attached to the rear part of the tub, substantially as set forth.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my invention I have signed my name in presence of two subscribing witnesses.
JOHN PIPHER.
