LOG-LIFTER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 626,102, dated May 30, 1899.
Application filed January 14, 1899. Serial No. 702,176. (No model.)
T aZZ whom, it may concern:
Be it known that LHERBERT WALTER Scores, a citizen of the United States,residing at Olean, in the county of Miller and State of Missouri, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Log-Lifters; and I do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawing, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, which forms a part of this specification.
This invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in devices for lifting logs, and more particularly to that class of devices embodying a supporting-frame, a shaft or Windlass, with means for turning the same,
- and a rope, one end of which is attached to said Windlass and the other end carrying a hook or analogous means for connection with a log for moving thesame.
The present invention has for its object, primarily, to provide a cheap and easily-constructed device for this purpose which shall be portable, so that it may be readily transported and easily set up where desired. It is designed more especially for the convenience of persons using crosscut-saws and for raising or lifting a log to the desired height and there holding the same while being sawed.
I am aware that portable power-skids have heretofore been devised, and .do not seek to cover, broadly, aportable lifting device. The uprights in my construction serve a triple functionfirst, as a support for the Windlass or shaft upon which a rope is wound; second, as means for the attachment of the inclined portion of the device upon which the log is drawn and upon which it is held while being sawed, and, third, as a stop for the log and against which it may be firmly held when elevated to such position.
The invention is clearly illustrated in the accompanying drawing, which, with the letters of reference marked thereon, forms part of this specification, and in which is illustrated a perspective view of my improved device.
Referring now to the details of the drawing by letter, A A represent two posts or uprights, between which, near their lower ends, is secured the horizontal braceB, upon the opposite end of which rests the inclined support G,-the upper end of which is disposed between the uprights or posts A A at a distance from their upper ends and there held by suitable means. The lower end of the inclined support 0 is beveled, as clearly shown in the drawing.
D is a shaft or winding-drum mounted in suitable bearings near the upper ends of the uprights A A above the point of attachment of the inclined support 0, the ends of said shaft or drum being extended outward beyond the uprights and provided with eyes D, which eyes are disposed substantially at right angles to each other and are adapted to receive bars K, which are designed to be removably inserted in said eyes, as will be readily understood upon reference to the drawing, in which a bar K is indicated by dotted lines in the eye upon the right-hand side.
E is a rope, one end of which is attached to and designed to be wound upon the shaft or Windlass D, and to its other end is connected a hook F.
It will be observed that the upper ends of the uprights A A extend beyond the upper end of the inclined support 0 and that the bearings for the shaft or Windlass D are upon the sides of the uprights opposite to the inclined support 0. This takes the shaft or Windlass away from a point where it would be likely to be injured by engagement of a log therewith and where the rope as it is wound upon the Windlass will not be jammed by the log. The extended ends of the uprights form stops, against which the log will engage when elevated to such aposition and against which it may be firmly held, so as to be more conveniently sawed.
The operation is simple and will be readily understood. The device being set up in the position indicated in the drawing, the rope,
with its book, is engaged against the log, so
placing the end of said bar upon or into the ground, so as to prevent turning of the Wind-' lass.
The invention is simple in its nature, cheap of construction, and by reason of the triangular form of the supportit is capable of being made of light material and yet possesses great strength.
\Vhat I claim as new is-- As an improved article of manufacture, the
herein-described log-lifting device, consisting of the uprights A A, the horizontal brace B secured at one end between said uprights near their lower end, the inclined support 0 resting upon the other end of said brace, with its upper end secured between the uprights at a distance from their upper ends, ashaft mount- HERBERT WALTER SCOTT.
