Be it knownthan I, GEORGEG. MAYEN:

SCHEIN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Sunnyside, in the county of .Yakima and State of Washington, have invented certain new and useful Improvements inHaylv Derricks, of which the following is a specification.

, My invention is a derrick ,usedV for stack!` ing hay, straw, and the like, and is known as the flying-dutchman derrick; and it consists ina frame having a braced central vertical post and a swinging beam journaled on'- l represents Ytwo sills, the under edges yof their ends' being beveled off, so as to round themupwardly. 2representscross-beamsrigidly secured to the said sills. Extending Vertically from the oentralcross-beam is a oenytral braced post 3, which about two-thirdsof-- the distance from its lower endhas a shoulder 4, and resting on said shoulder is a cir,-4 cular bearings', and from the said shoulder Y, the said post is cylindrical, forming a cylindrical bearing 5. tion of this cylindricalbearing 5 and against the upper of the circular vbearing 4:' isI a collar 6, having extending therefrom at Van angle of about forty-five degrees two armsockets 7, and,extendingfrom'these armsockets at the same anglefare securedtwo braces 8 and secured to the upperjends ofi these two braces horizontally and .ona line Vexactly atright anglesto v the post 3 isfa swinging beam 9, andthrough the center of" this swinging beam 9 is'aperforation 1Q, and extending downwardly through said perforation and into the upper end of the cylindrical bearing is a headed `bolt 11. 'Depending from each end of said swinging beam and from the under face thereof is a bearing12, and in each of said'bearings is `journaled a pulley 13. Depending from the extreme of Vorkng on the lower por.

in which is secured theupper end ofa cable.

15, and secured in the upper faceofone of ,the sills l is aneye 16,.to which is secured a lock 1 7. The case part 1S of said look is'v indented in one side, formingv a catch 19, and

the tongue part 2O has in its'lower end a de-i pression 21in'which fits the catch 19. The

,upper end of the tongue part of j said lock is provided I'with'an eye 22,"and vin .said `eyef22 is secured the lowerend-of thecable 1.5 ,and in said eye 22 is secured one endv of an oper- Q Said cable passes around` ,tof-yv the Afront side of the frame andisseeu'red to" a hoisting-cable 24 near 'it's'front end.. The

ating-cable 23.

frontend of 'said hoistingcable has secured,

thereto a double and a pair of single'trees25.- Saidcable runs back and under a pulley 26,'

which-is journaled in a keeper 27,!securedto2 the upper face of one'of the beams, and'runs up over the pulleys'13 andv then hangs downr" wardly and bearsin its swinging end 'a bundleofstraw28. v The operation of my inventionfis:described 'as follows; The rst thing is to havethefmachine placed in proper position.` 'On` onecor-` ner of the fr'amejs theflock 17, towhich issej Y 'cured the cable 15. This `lock will be seen 8o` to fit one:part'withinv the other.

Having described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is` l 1. The combination of a base-frame, consisting of side sills 1, and cross-beams 2; a braced central post 3, having about two-thirds of the way from its face, a shoulder 1i, and lo resting on said shoulder, a collar 4', the balance of said post terminating in a cylindrical beariug; a collar 6, encircling said cylindrical bearing 5, and resting on said collar just named; arm-sockets 7, extending up- [5 wardly and at au angle of about forty-iive degrees from said post; arms 8, secured in said sockets, and extending upwardly at the same angle; a swinging beam 9, secured horizontally to the upper ends of said arms 8, zo and at right angles to said post; a bolt 11, passing through a perforation 10, in the beam 9, and into the upper end of the cylindrical bearing 5; a lock 17, secured to one corner of the base; a cable, one end secured to the tongue part 21, of said lock, and the other to one end of the beam; a hoisting-cable 24, having a doubletree secured to its free end; said cable passing under a pulley 13, secured to one end of the beam 9, and over another 3o pulley 13, secured in the other end of said beam, and thence downwardly, and adapted to be secured to a sling or grapple-hooks, and an operating-cable having one end secured to the hoisting-cable, near the doubletrees, the other end secured to the upper end of the tongue part 2l, of the lock, substantially as shown and described and for the purposes set forth.

2. The combination of a base-frame; a vertical central braced post, having some distance from its lower end, a shoulder; a circular bearing resting on said shoulder, the balance ot' said post terminating in a cylindrical bearing; a collar journaled on said cylindrical bearing and resting on said circular bearing; arms extending upwardly at right angles from said collar; a swinging beam secured horizontally to the upper ends of said arms; a bolt passing down through the center of said beam into the top of said cylindrical bearing; a lock secured to one corner of said base; a cable, one -end secured to the tongue part of said lock and the other to one end of said swinging beam; a hoisting-cable, having a doubletree secured to one end, said cable passing under a pulley secured to the base-frame, passing thence up-over pulley se cured to the under face of said cross-beam, and thence downwardly, and adapted to be secured to a sling or grapple-hooks, and an operating-cable, one end secu redto the hoisting-cable and the other to the upper end of the tongue part of the lock, substantially as shown and described and for the purposes set forth.

In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
