The object ofi my invention is to provide a simple, cheap, and safe'elevator for the pur pose named, which can be operated by hand.
by thetperson upon the elevator..
r The construction I of my improvementfis fully described hereinafter, and the novel fea tures are particularly pointed out in the appended claims.

well. Fig.4 is a detail view'of thedoor-lo ck My improved elevator, is; preferably ar ranged in the landing .of the cellar steps, as
indicated in the drawings, the-canA eompris ing a platform B, which corresponds with said landing when the car-is in its elevated position, the vertical support 0 and the top'or. cover D, which fills the opening inthe land ing when the car is in its lower position. The car is attached to the end of a cableE, which extends overa pulleyF, and carriesaflweight G, having a case containingthe' independent weights gr By meansof the. independent:
weights, the weights. 9: may beiregulated or adjusted to suit the loadl Upon the under side of the. car. is arranged a system of bolts forming a locking devic'eto sustain the elevator, in the desired position. [I I H H are the transverse. sliding bolts','fitting in guides h, and K K are bell-crank levers,
having the extremities tr their outer arms- I v 1 sliding, spring-actuated locking-bolts, the pivconnected to the innerends of said bolts: The foot-lever L'is pivoted Itothe floor' of the car with its horizontalarmarranged above 2' I I foot-lever and the locking-bolts, substantially theplane thereof, and its lower or vertical arm connected at its extremity to the extremities 0t the inner arms of thebell-cranklevers- Serial No. 440,051.

by the rods M. The locking-bolts are provided with collars'N, and coiled. springs O are arranged upon the bolts to bear against said collars to normally hold the bolts in their locking positions. Whenthefree end of the footleveris depressed, it draws upon the connecting-rods M and swings the outer arms of the bell-crank levers inwardly, thereby retracting the lockingebolts and disengaging them from the catches P, which are shown upon the walls ot' the'well.
Q represents a hand-rod, which passes through aligned openings in the'floor and roof of the car within'reachof the operator, said properly balanced by' its weight above described, to-be moved either upward or down- Attached to each door which opens into the .well'of the elevatonis a locking device comprisingfa -horizontal spring-actuated bolt R,
connected at its rear end to one arm of a bell- -crank lever S, theother arm of said lever beingconnectedby means of a rod T toth'e pivoted detent U, which extendsfoutw'ardly into the path of the elevator in its descent. The
locking bolt is I normally. held in its locking positio'nin engagement with a suitable socket in thedo'or-jamb, and when the elevator descends to the plane of the bottom of the door it engages said'detent and depressing the lat- .ter,'withd raws the bolt and releases the door. I The cable is attached to the'car by means or an-eye-bolt V, the shank of which extends vertically downward through; the roof of the *car and is engaged at the lower surface of the latter by the thumb-nut W. 1 By means of this devicethe cable may be shortened or lengthened, as required: I I I I The operation of my improved elevator will beradily; understood 'fromthe above description. I I Having thusdescribed' my invention, what I claim,and desire to secure by Letters Patent,is-- j '1. "In combination with an elevator car, the
oted foot-lever arranged close to the floor of too the car, and means of connection between the as specified.- I I 2. In 'an elevatonthe combination with a 3. The combination with'an elevator car, of
the door-locking mechanism having a sliding spring-actuated bolt, a bell-crank lever connected to said bolt, and a pivoted detent conneoted to the other arm of said bell-crank lever and projecting at its free end into the path of said car, substantially as specified.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own I have hereto affixed my signature in the presence of two Witnesses.
