JAMES THAXTER, OF VINNEBAGO, ILLINOIS.
STOVE-TRUCK.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 342,816I dated June 1, 1886.-
(No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Beit known that l, JAMEs THAXTER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Winnebago. in the county of Vinnebago and State of Illinois, haveinvented certain new and useful Improvements in Stove-Trucks; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as willenable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form part of this specification.
The object of my invention is to provide a new and improved truck for facilitating the lifting and moving of stoves by means of a trnckframe having inclined ways and supported on wheels, and having a supplemental frame resting` on and held within the truckframe, and adapted to slide or ride up and forward on the inclined ways when drawn by a bail hinged to the end of the top frame and secured in a hook on the underside of the draft bar or pole which is hinged to the end of the bottom frame, said draft bar or pole serving` as a lever to draw one frame upon the other; and myinvention consists in the construction hereinafter described, and more particularly set forth in the claims. t
Referring to the drawings, Figure l isa perspective View of my improved invention with the bail of the supplemental frame released from the hook of the draft-bar and the frame lowered within and resting on the inclined ways of the truck-frame. Fig. 2 is a perspective View with the bail of the supplemental frame resting in the hook of the draftbar, holding thefralne in its raised position on the inclined ways within the truclcframe. Fig. 3 shows the supplemental frame removed `from the truck-frame and adapted to be used for carrying small stoves.
Like letters refer to corresponding each figure of the drawings.
A represents a rectangular stove-truck or main frame, which I prefer to make of hard, strong wood, having ways B extending crossparts in -wise the frame near its front and rear ends,
inclined upward and forward, and mortised into or otherwise secured to the inside of the frame, making au angle with its upper and lower sides. rIhe frame is provided with wheels C on axles at its sides, and at its front end is hinged a draft pole or bar, D, by means of braces d. On the upper side of the pole is secured a'loopstrap, E, for holding aspringbrace, F, which is bent iu the middle to form aloop, f, and is provided with ahook at each of its ends. The brace F is passed through the loop-strap and extended back to, and its hooks are sprung into, staples a ou the end of the frame A. As the draft-pole is raised and lowered, the loopfin the center of the brace slides up and down in the loop-strap E on the pole, and as it strikes the innershoulderofthe loop-strap it is so adjusted as to prevent the pole from falling to the door or ground, and is secured in that position by the piu eth rough the strap and pole. having side pieces, G G, which are united by cross-bars g, tenoned or otherwise secured into the s-ide pieces, is made to rest within thev truck-frame on the inclined ways. Near the front ends the side pieces are beveled, at H, on the under side from the bottom and back to near the upper edge at the front end, leaving a handle and seat, h., to rest on top of the ineline, thus adapting them to fit the inclined way B of the truck or main frame in front.
Near the rear ends of the side pieces mortises I are cut, extending from toward the front and near the upper edge to the rearand bottom, and ofthe same inclination as the way A supplemental frame B, to enable the rear end of the supplemental frame to be moved or drawn up on the incline, and at the same time to be held in position from tilting out of or away from the truckframe.
In the front end of the supplemental frame a spring-bail, K, is pivoted and passed around the draft -pole D between the arms of the spring-brace F. Its center portion forms a loop, which is made to rest in a hook, L, on the under side of the draft-pole beneath the loopstrap E, and its extreme ends are formed into hooks k, that are sprung into holes on the iuner sides of the side pieces, G, thereby pivot ing the bail tothe frame.
The supplemental frame may be removed from the truck by compressing the arms of the spring-bail K, to release the hooks k from the side pieces, G G, and by sliding the frame up on the inclines of the truck to release the rear IOS end from the incline, and be used without 'the truck for moving small stoves by sliding the frame under the stove and grasping it at each end bythe handles 7L 7L and 'i i.
My improved stove truck is operated by moving the truck under the stove, the supplemental frame bei nglowered on the truck-frame, and then by elevating the draft-pole the bail can be raised and brought over the hook on the under side ofthe pele. The pole is then depressed, forming alever, which by means of the Spring-bail moves or draws the supplemental frame up the inclines of the truckframe, thereby gradually raising the stove or other article from its foundation without the vertical lifting to overcome a dead-centenas shown in some of the devices for this purpose heretofore presented. At the same time the supplemental frame reaches its highest point on the truck lfra-me, the loop of the springbrace is so adj usted as to come in contact with lthe shoulder of the loop-strap, thereby preventing further depression of the pole, and by inserting the pin through the strap into the pole the spring-brace holds the supplemental frame in its raised position and the d raft-pole at the proper angle for guiding the truck to any desired point, where the stove may be lowered to a foundation by reversing the order of operation above given,aud the truck drawn from beneath the stove. v
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Iattent, ism
1. The combination, with a main or truck frame having inclined ways extending cross` wise the frame near its front and rear ends, of a supplemental frame resting on and adapted to be moved up and down on said ways, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
2. In a truck, the combination, with the ina-in frame having ways inclined upward and forward near its front and rear ends, of asupplemental frame beveled in front and mortised near its rear end to fit the inclination of the ways, and adapted to be moved up and down thereon, substantially as and for theA purpose set forth.
3. Atruck frame having inclined ways, with a draft-pole hinged or pivoted at one end, having` a loop-strap on its upper surface, and a springbraee passing through and adapted to slide up and down in said strap and pivotally connected to said frame, in combination with a supplemental frame beveled and mortised to conform to and resting on theinclined ways, and adapted to be drawn up said Ways by a bail around the draft-pole seated in a In testimony whereof I a'i`|\v my sgnatn re in presence ofl two witnesses.
JAMES TIIAXTER.
