CARE OF LIVE STOCK.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 713,075, dated November 11, 1902. Application filed December 1'7, 1901. Serial No. 86,224. (No model.)

T0 all whom t mag/concern:

Beitv known that we, JAMES DONALD, residing at Collingswood, and JOSEPH POHL, residing at Camden, in the county of Camden and State of New Jersey, have jointly invented certain new and useful Improvements for the Care of Live Stock, of whieh the following is a specification.

In the care of live stock, particularly on board ship, it is desirable to have means for forming stalls of movable parts adapted to be readily assembled andseparated, and to this'end the present invention provides for holdingstanchions and partitions securely by mechanism which will permit them to`-be quickly and securely fixed in place or readily removed.

The characteristic features of our invention are illustrated in the'accompanyin g drawings, of which-f l Figure lis a view showing the improvements in side elevation. Fig.2 is an elevation at right angles to thatv shown in Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a horizontal sectional view taken on the line 3 3 of Fig. 2. Fig/1 is a view in side elevation of the lower stanchion-shoe.Y Fig. 5 is a view, partially in section, of the lower stanchion-shoe, takenat'right angles to the position shown in Fig. Li.Y Fig. 6 is a view in side elevation of the upper stanchion-shoe. Fig. 7 is a view of the upper stanchion-shoe,

taken at right angles to the position shown' Fig. 8 is a plan view, partially in' section, of the upper stanchion-shoe. Fig. 9 is a view showing the partition-shoes in side elevation. angles to the elevation shown in Fig.' 9. Fig. 11 is a plan v iew of the partition-shoes; and

Fig. l2 is a view of aY second positionY of the' mechanism illustrated in Fig. 11, the lockingring being turned to its open position.

In the drawings the lower stanchion-shoe 1, which is secured to the deck orfloor in any suitable manner, has the notch 2 in the socketwall 3 thereof. The foot of the stanchion 4t fits in the shoe 1 and a stud 5 thereon engages the notch 2, whereby the stanchion is prevented from turning. The upper stanchionshoe 6 is secured in any suitable manner, as to a deck or roof channel 7 by means of the bolts 8, and has the top-plate 9and side plates Fig. 10V-is a view-taken at right l 10, which permit the stanchion tobe swung into place, but prevent it from moving laterally or upward when seated. A clasp 11, having pintles 12 pivoted in open bearings 13 of 55 the shoe 6, provides means for instantly securing and releasing the stanchion in its en.- gagement with the upper stanchion-shoe, the pintles being placed in the open bearings 'and held in place by bolting the shoe to the 6o channel. y

The partition-shoe 16 has the wings 14, which embrace the stanchion 4, these wings being provided with clutching-jaws 15. A stud 17 onthe shoe engages 'an opening 1S in the stan- 65 chien, by which the shoe is held against longitudinal or rotary motion. A second shoe 19 is provided with the wings 20,which embrace the stanchion, these wings being provided with clutching-jaws 21,`which engage the jaws'l. 7o

The shoes 16 and 19 are iirmly locked together and to the stanchion by forcing the jaws 21 downward along the stanchion into frictional engagement with the jaws 15. -The shoe 16 Vis provided with the sockets 22, which sup- 7 5 port the partition-boards 23, and the shoe 19 is provided with the socket 23' for receiving the partition-board 24:. These parts lbeing assembled are held in place by means of a ring 25, having the lugs 26, which is sleeved 8o on the stanchion, the,y ring vbeing adapted to turn so that its lugs engage the respective jaws 27 and 2S of the shoes 16 and 19, whereby the shoes are securely locked ltogether upon the stanchion and the boards securely locked in their seats in-the shoes, as ,shown in Figs. 1 and 11. It will no w be seen that `the stanchion can be secured in place, the

partition-shoes clutched thereto, and the several members of the stall assembled together 9o quickly and securely, Whilethe peculiar construction of the mechanism permits the parts to be readily separated and removed.

Having described our invention, we claim 1. The-combination of a stanchion, with a shoe having a socket for holding the foot of said stanchion, a shoe having top and side plates for engaging the top of said stanchion, and a clasp pivoted in relation to said second shoe for holding the top of said stanchion, xoo

substantially as specified.

2. Thecombination of a stanchion, with a shoe having a top plate, and a clasp pivoted in relation to said shoe, said parts being adapted to engage and hold said stanchion, substantially as specified.

3. The combination of a stanchion, with a shoe having side plates and open bearings, a clasp having pintles pivoted in said bearings, and a support for said shoe adapted to hold said pintles in said bearings, substantially as specified.

4. The combination of a stanchion, with a shoe having clutching-jaws on each side thereof, a second shoe having clutching-jaws adapted to engage the clutching-jaws ot' said first shoe by longitudinal movement, and means for locking said shoes together in longitudinal relation, substantially as specified.

5. The combination of a stanchion, with a shoe having clutching-jaws on each side thereof, a second shoe having clutching-jaws adapted to engage the clutching-jaws of said first shoe by longitudinal movement, means for holding said engaged shoes against movement upon said stanehion, and means for locking said shoes together in longitudinal re: lation, substantially as specified.

6. The combination of a stanchion, With a shoe having clutching-jaws, a second shoe having clutching-jaws adapted to engage the clutching-jaws of said first shoe, and a ring for engaging and holding said shoes together in longitudinal relation, substantially as speciiied.

'7. The combination of a stanchion, with a shoe having means for engaging one or more partition-pieces, a second shoe having means for engaging a partition-pieee,clutchin g mechanism for holding said shoes together upon said stanchion, and mechanism for holding said shoes in longitudinal relation, substantially as specified.

8. The combination of a stanchion, with a shoe having a socket or sockets for engaging one or more partition-pieces, a second shoe having a socket for engaging a partitionpiece, clutching members for holding said shoes together upon said stanchion, and a revoluble member for holding said partitionpieces in said sockets and locking said shoes together in longitudinal relation, substantially as specified.

9. The combination of a stanchion, with a shoe having means for engaging one or more partition-pieces, a second shoe having means for engaging a partition pieee, clutching members for holding said shoes together upon said stanohion, a ring revoluble with relation to said shoes, projecting ears 011 said ring and jaws on said 4shoes adapted to be engaged by said ears, substantially as specified.

In testimon)7 whereof We have hereunto signed our names, this 14th day of December, A. D. 1901, in the presence ofthe subscribing Witnesses.
