PATENT FFlGEQ .ronn s. MILLER, on TRURO, cannon.
CAR-STAK E.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 593,229, dated November9, 1897.
Appli atio filed June 5, 1895. Renewed May 18, 1897- Serial No. 637,122 (No model.)
T 0' all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that 1, JOHN S. MILLER, a British subject, residing at Truro, in the county of Oolchester, in the Province of Nova Scotia and Dominion of Canada, have invented new and useful Improvements in Oar-Stakes, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to the stakes which are anecessity to the complete equipment of fiat railroad-cars to use in securing loads of deals, lumber, round or square timber, in boxing for coal, 850., or in securing any material that is necessary to be secured on flatcars or other conveyances by means of stakes;
and the objects of my invention are, first, to
provide a combination that can remain attached to the car or other conveyance when not in use, thus obviating the expense to the shipper of deals, &c., by rail of providing a new set of stakes and binding-gear each time the car is reloaded, and, secondly, to provide a stake that can be easily freed from the load when necessary and when not in use can be placed in a position that will leave the car in condition to be loaded or unloaded with gravel or other material not requiring the use of stakes. I attain these objects by the mechanism illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is an end elevation of the frame of a flat-car, showing two stakes in an upright position with the binder connecting them at the top. Fig. 2 is anedge view of the stakesoclret. Fig.3 is afront view of the same. Fig. 4 is a plan of the same. Fig. 5 is a side elevation of a part of the frame of acar, show ing the stake turned down to a horizontal position and lying on the stake-rest. Fig. 6 is a side elevation of the stake. Fig. 7 is an edge elevation of the same.
In the drawings, A is an end piece of the car-frame. B is a side piece of the same frame.
P is the stake, which is of wood, about three inches square where it enters the shoe and about two inches by two and one-half inches at the top end and bound on the inner and outer edges by a continuous strip of thin iron to increase its strength and as a protection.
0 is the stake-shoe, which is a case of thin metal surrounding and protecting the lower end of the stake.
D D is the binding-rod, which is formed of light round iron and is secured to the stakes by therings K K.
E is the lock-lever, which is made of iron and which connects the two sections of the binding-rod and by which the proper bind ing tension is secured.
F is the keeper, which is of iron and which serves to keep the rod from being separated from the stakes when not in use.
G is the stake-rest, which is secured to the side frame of the car and in which the stake rests when in a horizontal position.
H is a slot through the stake-shoe and stake through which the bolt I passes, connecting the stake to the socket. The bolt I after passing through the stake and socket continues through the side piece of the frame of the car and is secured on the inside of the frame by a nut and washer.
L is the stake'socket, which is of cast-iron and is secured to the side frame of the car by the staple f in any required position for the purpose of holding the stake P. The lips n 71- project upward from the mouth of the socket for the purpose of allowing the stake to swing to a horizontal position on the pin I. This socket can be used for stationary stakes without any change, if so desired.
J is a curved hook formed on the end of the lock-lever E and passes under the binding rod D, holding the lever in place when in use.
c c c are recesses near the top of the stake, in one of which the rings K K are placed when the tension is put on the binding rod.
c is a groove on three sides of the stakesocket, in which the staple f rests.
g is the hole in the lips of the stake-socket, through which the pin I passes.
In using'the stake two of them are placed in upright positions in their sockets on opposite sides of the car before commencing to load or at any convenient time, and when the load is completed the binding-rod D D is placed in position across the top of it, the
long arm of the 1ocklever is held in an upright position, and the curved point of the short arm is engaged with alink of the chain on the opposite section of the rod that will give the required tension for binding properly. The long arm of the lever is then brought down to ahorizontal position, and the curved point J is inserted under the rod, thus maintaining the desired strain on the stakes.
WVhen the load is to be removed, the locklever is released. The parts of the bindin g-rod descent to clear. the irregularities in the surface oi 'f side sills or other projections that may be on the side of the load.
Vhat I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
In a car-stake, a frame L, secured to the side of the car, a pivotal pin which passes through the frame, and a car-stake, slotted at its lower end, and having both a vertical and a pivoted movement upon the pin, combined with the keepers F secured to the upper end of the stakes, the binding-rods D, the lock-lever E, and the rings K, substantially as shown.
