B. A. LEINARD. WAGON BODY AND STAKE HOLDER.
No. 425,811. Patented-Apr. 15, 1890.
m ll! b in UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
EDGAR A. LEINARD, OF KARLE, ASSIGNOR OF ONE-HALF TO DAVID A. GARVER, OF BRYAN, OHIO.
WAGON-BODY AND STAKE-HOLDE R.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 425,811, dated April 15, 1890.
Ap plioation filed February 5, 1890.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, EDGAR A. LEINARD, of Karle, in the county of Williams and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in VVagon-Bodies and Stake- Holders Therefor; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear,-andeXact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, and to the letters of reference marked thereon.
The invention relates, particularly, to that class of wagon bodies or frames employed in hauling wood, timber, and other similar ma terial, although applicable to wagon-bodies having solid sides and bottom. The objects of the invention are to increase the strength and ease with which the bottom framing which rests on the bolsters may be constructed; also, to reduce the cost of the same; and, further, to provide an improved stake-holder, which will also serve as a medium for uniting the framing, to which ends the invention consists in certain novel details of construction and combinations and arrangements of parts to be now described, and pointed out particularly in the appended claims.
Referring to the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a top plan view of the bottom frame of a wagon-body with portions broken away to illustrate the manner of applying the stake-holders. Fig. 2 is a perspective view of one of the stake-holders.
Like letters of reference indicate the same parts.
Aindicates the side pieces of the frame, and B the cross-pieces for uniting the side pieces, preferably mortised and tenoned, as usual; but instead of being fastened by means of the usual bolt, pin, or wedges the stake-holders a embrace the ends of the tenons and prevent their withdrawal. These stake-holders a. are preferably formed of sheet metal bent into shape, although it is obvious that they may be malleable castings or other suitable material, and consist of a bowed or otherwise suitably shaped central portion a for the reception of the stake, and two forwardly-extending arms a. on each side at the center with Serial No. 339,341. (No model.)
laterally-projecting lugs a at each side of the arms.
When in position, the arms a are inserted in the mortises on each side of the tenons of the cross-pieces with the lugs a resting flat against the outer surface of the side pieces A, thus holding the stake-holders firmly in position, and when the arms a, are secured to the crosspiecesas shown, for instance, at E,Fig. 1h0lding the frame rigidly together. The arms a, it will be noted, are oppositely. arranged with parallel flat faces, thereby enabling them t pass into the mortises on each side of the cross-pieces and embrace the cross-piece, so to speak. The cross-pieces may be of any desired width but when wider than the mortises and it is desired to secure the stake-holders thereto it will be found desirable to cut slots for the reception of the arms 0, beyond the inner surface of the side piece, a bolt being then passed through, as indicated at F. Of course where the cross-piece is of the same width as the tenon this is not necessary, and the cross-piece can be simply cut away the thickness of the arms, as at E. If it is desired to secure the stake-holder in position without the cross-pieces or to fasten the lugs down, screws 6 may be inserted through the said lugs and into the side piece, and the cross-piece may then be fastened in any desired manner well known to those skilled in the art. By providing the stake-holder with lugs at top and bottom a firm bearing is secured at all times to resist the pulling and twisting strain of both the cross-pieces and stakes. A
When wood, timber, 850., are being hauled, the'ordinary stakes employed for such purposes are inserted in the holders, shoulders being formed thereon, or the lower end tapered to prevent the stake passing way through; but when the frame is floored and it is desired to employ solid sides the stakes are preferably secured directly to the sides and project a sufficient distance below the same to insure a firm bearing in the holders, thereby holding the sides rigidly in upright position.
From the foregoing it will be seen that with the aid of my present invention the framing 100 of the body of a wagon may be put together quickly and securely at a cost muehbelow the cost of structures now being used, and when the frame is completed it forms a neat and firm structure.
It is obvious that the invention is applicable'to any Wagon or other vehicle body frame employing side pieces or sills and cross-pieces, i and therefore I do not wish to be limited to the particular application and embodiment shown. I
What I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-- s 1. As an improved article of manufacture, a stake-holder for wagon-body frames, having the central portion for the reception of the, stake, the forwardly-extending parallel arms, one at substantially the center of each side, and the outwardly-turned lugs above and below the arms for resting against the sill, substantially as described.
2. In a wagon-body frame, the combination, 1 with the side pieces or sills and the crossthe arms embracing the ends of the crosspieces, the bolts passing through said crosspieces and arms, and the lugs on the holder resting against the outer surface of the sills, substantially as described.
