NiTED STATES JOSEPH F. GLIDDEN, OF DEKALB, ILLINOIS.
STOCK TROUGH OR TANK.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 678,104, dated July 9, 1901.
Application filed November 15, 1900. Serial No. 36,618. (No model.)
To aZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOSEPH F. GLIDDEN, of
Dekalb, county of Dekalb, and State of Illi- What I regard as the principal novel fea tures of my invention are the use of headpieces of cement of considerable thickness and the means for securing the latter in the body of the trough for the purposes and with the advantages hereinafter specified.
My invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is a side elevation, partly in vertical section, of a trough built in accordance with my invention. Fig. 2 is a plan View of the same; and Fig. 3 is a vertical transverse section through one end or head of the trough, showing the manner of securing the headpiece in place in the trough-body.
Referring to the drawings in detail, A represents the trough-body, which will preferably be of substantially semicylindrical shape and may be rolled from any suitable sheet metal.
B designates the headpieces, which in accordance with my invention are made of cement in the form, as here shown, of substantially semidisk-shaped blocks of considerable thickness and weight. The manner of securing these cement head-blocks in place is an important feature of my presentinvention and is performed as follows: Across and between the opposite sides of the troughbody, near the ends thereof, are passed a series of wires O, the returning or meeting ends of which are preferably united by being simply twisted'and tied together in the manner plainly shown in Fig. 3. Directly above these wires and also further uniting the opposite sides of the trough-body are tie-bolts D, the latter also passing through the opposite sides of 'a rectangular wooden frame E, which forms a binding for the upper edge of the trough. The parts enumerated'having been thus secured together, a body of plastic cement is molded in place in each en-d of the trough-body, entirely surrounding, that part of said wires and tie-bolts which is within the trough-body and shaped up into the form of head-blocks of uniform 'and considerable thickness and then allowed to harden in place, thus securely embedding therein the wires 0 and the end tie-bolts D. The binding-frame E and the tie-bolts D,'of which theremay be one or more intermediate the head-blocks, according .to the length of the trough, serve to secure the parts rigidly together laterally. The head-blocks B, made of cement and secured in place in the manner and by the means specified, form an exceedingly strong and durable construction capable of withstanding great endwise strain, such as might be produced by the freezing of water in the trough, and in addition thereto by reason of their weight they add to the general stability of the trough, rendering it less easy to be displaced or overturned.
I do not limit myself to the substantially semicircular contour of the body of the trough herein shown,- but prefer the same on account of itssuperior ease and cheapness of con struction. v
I claim as my invention- 1. The combination with the trough-body and the cement head-blocks, of wires connecting opposite sides of the trough-body and embedded in said cement head-blocks.
2. The combination with the trough-body and the cement head-bloeks,of wires connecting opposite sides of the trough-body and embedded in said cement head-blocks and tie-bolts extending transversely of the trough.
3. The combination with the trough-body and the cement head-blocks, of wires connecting opposite sides of the trough-body and embedded in said cement head-blocks,a rectangular binding-frame around the upper edge of the trough-body, and a series of tiebolts extending transversely through the trough-body and binding-frame, the end tiebolts being embedded in said cement head blocks.
JOSEPH F. GLIDDEN. Witnesses:
