UNITED STATES PATENT OFFIcE.
WILLIAM D. LINK, 'oF TALLA EeA, ALABAMA.
LUMBER-TRUCK.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 623,551, dated April 25, 1899.
Application filed October 3, 1895. Renewed October '7, 1898. Serial No. 692,903. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be ltknown that I, WILLIAM D. LINK, a citizen of the United States, residing at Talladega, in the county of Talladega and State of Alabama, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Lumber-Trucks; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to whichitappertains to make and use the same.
This invention relates to lumber-trucks; and it consists in certain improvements in the construction thereof, as Will be hereinafter fully described, and pointed out in the claim.
The trucks to which my invention is preferably applied have a single line of Wheels with a broad frame and are placed on parallel tracks in series, usually three, (one at each end and one in the middle of the lumber,) upon which the lumber is stacked or piled in large quantities, the lumber acting upon the broad top ofthe frameserving to keep the trucks in an upright position.
The invention so applied is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, as follows:
Figure 1 shows a side elevation of the truck. Fig. 2 shows a plan of the truck. Fig. 3 shows a section on the line 3 3 in Figs. 1 and 2.
The truck is made wholly of metal. The
journaled on the axles between the brackets.
The truck is adapted to run on any ordinary rail, as A. At either or both ends of the truck a metal post F is secured in any desirablemanner. This post' is provided with a recess or pocket, into which a stake or post can be placed for holding the lumber in place on the trucks.
By attaching the brackets C C to the sides by casting them on the lower T of the beams and joining the sides with the axles also cast in the brackets a frame is constructed as of substantially one piece. Such a construction is particularly desirable in trucks designed for heavy service, as the one shown, as the jar incident to such use is peculiarly apt to loosen bolted or riveted joints of metal on metal.
What I claim as new is In a metal lumber-truck, the combination with the metal side beams; a single line of wheels carrying said beams; a hollow metal stake secured between the ends of the side beams and extending above the same.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
WILLIAM D. LINK. Witnesses:
' F. L. VANoE,
SYDNEY J. BoWIE.
