ADJUSTABLE BARREL SUPPORT.

ADJ USTAB LE BARREL-SU PPORT.l
SPECIFICATION forming' part 0f Letters Patent NO. 533,687, dated February 5, 1 895.
Application filed June 11,1894. Serial No. 514,23?. (No model.)
To @ZZ whom it may concern..-
Be it known that I, ROBERT WALKER, a. citizen of the United States, residing at Oakland, Alameda county, State of California,
'5 have invented an Improvement in Adjustable Barrel-Supports; and l hereby declare the following to be afull, clear, and exact description of the same.
My invention relates to a stand or support io for barrels.
It consists in certain details of construction, which will be more fully explained by reference to the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure l is a perspective View of a barrel support with my attachment. Fig. 2 shows its application. Fig. 3 shows a modication. Fig. 4 is a section of one of the spring arms showing the construction. Fig. 5 shows spiral springs for the arms.
The object of my invention is to provide a support which is especially useful for barrels from which the contents are being gradually drawn, and which it is desirable to correspondinglyadjust without agitating the contents such as beer and other liquids in kegs or barrels.
A is a frame of any suitable or usual construction having segmental depressions upon opposite sides, upon which a keg, barrel, or
cask is adapted to rest and be steadily supported.
The front. end of the frame is usually a little lower than the rear end, and when the faucet is introduced into the keg or barrel, the contents maybe withdrawn until they are so far exhausted that it is necessary to tip the keg up in order to draw the last portion of its contents. In order to avoid thus moving the keg and agitating the contents, l have shown a device which consists of a springactuated arm B having a segment C fixed to one end, and corresponding in shape with the segmental depression at the rear end ot the frame A.
The front end of the arm B is hinged, if a separate spring is used, or permanently fixed to the frame A it the arm itself is elastic.
D is a rod connecting the rear movable end of the arm B and extending down through 5o the central opening in the central cross piece of the frame A. This arm has notches E formed upon it near the upper end, and when the barrel or keg is to be placed upon the frame, the arm B is drawn down, and the notch is engaged with a catch or plate upon the frame, which holds it in position until the keg or barrel is rolled into place. It is then disengaged from the catch and the tendency of the arm B will be to rise whenever the 6i weight of the barrel or keg is sufticiently reduced. This raising pressure maybe produced either by making the arm B elastic and in a curved form so that its own elasticity will have sulcient lifting power, or if preferred 6 5 a spiral spring or springs G may be fitted to surround the rod D, and this will act upon the movable end of the bar B, so that when the contents of the keg or barrel have been suiciently reduced to make it necessary to 7o tilt it still. more, this device will gradually raise the rear end, but without any agitation ot the contents, thus placing it in position to draw the entire contents.
For beer kegs and light barrels, a single 7 5 arm or bar B Will ordinarily be sufficient for all purposes, but when heavy barrels or casks are to be supported, it will be necessary to use a frame of considerable strength having two or more springs. This construction is shown 8c in Fig. 3, Where the supplemental frame B is supported by springs interposed between it self and the main frame or support A.
Any number or form of springs necessary to support the Weight may be employed. S 5
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
An improved support for kegs and barrels consistingof the combination of a stationary ge support having segmental depressions upon opposite sides to receive and support the keg or barrel, a'horizontally-disposed springactuated arm located within and near the center of said support having one end secured thereto 9 5 and its opposite end inclined upwardly, asegment secured. to and extending transversely so @hat the keg or barrel may be placed in of said arm, a rod or bar pvotally connected position. Y ro with the end of the arm which carries the In Witness whereof I have hereuntoset my Segment, and having notches formed in it, hand.
