UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JAMES HILL, OF MELBOURNE, VICTORIA.
APPARATUS FOR TILTING CASKS.'
SPECIFICATION furming part of Letters Patent No. 376,652, dated January 17, 1888.
Application filed July 27, i887. Serial No. 245,465. (No model.) IPatented in VictoriaMay 21, 1887, No. 5,087.
i .To all whom, it may concern.'
Be it known that I, JAMEs HILL, a subject of the Queen ofGreat Britain, residing at No. 201 Bourke street west, in the city of Melbourne and British colony of Victoria, bellfounder, have invented an Improved Apparatus for Tilting Casks, (for which I have led an application forLetters Patent in the British colony of Victoria on the 21st day of May, 1887, and numbered 5,087 that under the laws governing the grant of patents in said colony the Letters Patent will bear date as of the day of filing, and that upto the present time the patent on said application filed in said colony has not been granted,) of which the following is a specication.
My improved apparatus for tilting casks is so constructed as to act automatically and with the greatest precision, andso as to be easily `side the cylinder.
removable from one cask to another. It is suspended froman overhead rail or support of either T or H iron section, along which it can be readily slid from point to point or oi'v one rail and onto another. I first provide a spiral 0r coiled spring of suitable strength and place it inside a tubular casing or cylinder, which is closed at the top, but has an opening at the bottom to allow of the passage of a rod, the upper end of which is furnished with a flat disk, which rests on the top of said spring in- The lower end of this rod below the cylinder terminates in a hook or an eye, to which yis attached the upper couplinglink of the suspension-rod, which has a hook at its lower end to hook under the chine of the cask. The suspension-rod is composed of a cranked or lever-handle coupling-rod, the one stem of which has a right-handed and the other stem a left-handed thread cut in it to suit the threaded holes in the ends of the couplinglinks, so that by rotating such coupling-rodin the desired 4direction the suspension-rod can be lengthened or shortened. The top cap of the cylinder has two hooks or lugs on it to embrace the flat anges of the T ork H iron bar, which is suitably supported from the beam y above.
Figure 1, a side View of my apparatus suspended from a T-bar bolted to a bracket secured to an overhead beam, the lower hook of the apparatus being attached to the chine of a cask which is tilted. Fig. 2 is a view at right angles to Fig. 1, with the tubular casing or cylinder in section to show its contained spring and bar. Fig. 3 is a side view of the `*top part of the apparatus, showing an alternative means for supporting it, consisting ofthe H -bar, such H -bar being movable, as it is supported in a slotted bracket attached to the overhead beam. Fig. 4 is a view ofsnch alternative construction taken at right angles to Fig. 3. Fig. 5 shows an alternative construction of the screwed coupling-rod.
A is the tubular casing or cylinder, having the upper and lower cap-pieces, A and A2, screwed on its ends, the upper cap-piece, A', having the hook-shaped snugs A3 formed on it to embrace its supporting-bar, while the lower cap, A2, has a square hole through itto allow of the passage ofthe square bar A4, upon the upper end of which is riveted the disk or washer A5, which fits loosely within the casing. rlhe lower end of bar Ahas a hook, A, formed onit. The coiled or spiral spring B is arranged within the casing between the lower cap, A2, and the disk A and around the central bar, A4.
C is the screwed coupling-bar, shown furnished with a crank-handle. in Figs. l and 2, and with a lever-handle in Fig. 5. The stems C of the coupling-bar are screwed in a reverse direction to one another, the upper stem passing into the screwed coupling-link C2, which is supported on hook A, before referred to, and the lower stem passing into the lower coupling-link, G3, which supports the lowermost hook, C4, which engages with the chine of the cask D. l
In Figs. 1 and 2 the hooksnugsA3 are supported on the iiat flange of the T-iron bar E, which is bolted to the stem of the bracketpieces E', which in turn are bolted to the overhead beams E2, as shown.
In Figs. 3 and 4 the hoolcsnugs are supported on ythe iiat flange of the H -bar F, which is loosely supported in the slotted brackets F', bolted to the overhead beams, E2, as shown.
rlo put my improved apparatus for tilting casks in operation when it is suspended from IOO either the T or the H bar above the endof afull cask, the lower hook, 0*, is first attached to the chine of the Cask and the screwed coupling rotated until there is sufficient strain upon the 5 spring to barely lift the end of the Cask, the spring being so arranged with relation to the cask to which :it is to be attached that such compression will reduce it to about one-half its normal length; then as the cask empties ro the expanding power of the spring gradually lifts up the end of the Cask, thus tilting it in a gradual and automatic manner.
Having now particularly described and explained the nat-ure of my said invention and 15 in what manner the same is to be performed,
I declare that what I claim isl. The combination of a cylindrical casing containing a spring, with a rod having a disk at its top to press on such spring, a'hook for 20 engaging the barrel-chine, and an adjustable connection between said hook and rod, substantially as described.
2. The combination of the cylindrical casing having engaging-lugs on its upper end, a rail engaging said lugs and upon which said cyl- 2 5 inder is inovably supported, a spring in said casing, and a rod having a disk bearing on said spring, and a hook for engaging the barrelchine, substantially as described.
3. Thecombinationof thescrewedcoupling- 3o bar7 means for rotating said bar, hooks connected to the lower end of said bar, and cylindrical casing above said har7 containing a spring, and rod connected to said bar, substantially as specified.
JAM HILL.
