WAGON-BRACKET.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented April 17, 1906..
Application filed March 15,1905. Serial No. 250,257.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I,JOHN W. PATTERSON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Tiskilwa, in the county of Bureau and State of Illinois, have invented new and useful Improvements in Wagon-Brackets, of which the following is a specification.
The invention relates to an improvement in wagon-brackets designed particularly for use in converting the ordinary farm-wagon into a hay-wagon.
The main object of the invention is the production of a bracket designed for removable connection with the wagon-bolster and with the longitudinal sills of the wagon-body and arranged to secure and support the trans verse frame-bars of the hay-rack.
The preferred form of the invention will be described in detail in the following specification, with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is a view in elevation, showing a wagon-body arranged for use as a hay-wagon with my improved bracket in place. Fig. 2 is an enlarged view in elevation with the wagon-sills in section, illustrating the application of my improved bracket. Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the bracket.
In adapting the ordinary farm-wagon for use as a hay-wagon it is necessary to remove the wagon-body and support the hay-rack from the longitudinal sills of the wagon-frame. To provide for the convenient attachment of the hay-rack, I have devised a bracket designed to be removably secured to the wagonsills and to the transverse bars 01 the hayrack, whereby the latter may be readily and securely attached to and supported from said longitudinal sills.
The bracket of my invention comprises, preferably, an integral casting having a body portion 1, a rack-plate 2, projecting at a right angle from the upper end of the body portion, and a bolster-plate 3, projecting at a right angle from the lower end of the body portion, but in a reverse direction from that of the hay-rack plate 2. Depending from the under side of the rack-plate 2 is an angleplate 3, the downwardly-projecting flange 4 of which extends in. alinement with the body portion 1, but spaced therefrom a sufficient distance to receive the edge of one of the longitudinal wagon-sills. The free end of the rack-plate 2 is enlarged, as at 5, and provided with a U-shaped retaining-bolt 6, the terminals of which are arranged to pass through suitable openings in the enlarged end 5 of the plate 2 and be secured beneath said plate by nuts 7. The distance between'the vertical members of the retaining-bolt 6 is such as to receive the transverse frame-bar of the hayrack.
In securing the bracket in place the body portion 1 is placed in contact with the inner side of the longitudinal wagon-sill 8, being secured thereto by suitable bolt-fasteni'ngs 9, the bolster-plate 3 of the bracket resting upon the wagon-bolster 10 and being secured thereto by suitable bolt-fastenings 11. The plate 2 of the bracket projects laterally from the sill 8 in a direction away from the longitudinal center of the wagon, the body portion 1 being of less length than the height of the sill, so that that portion of the plate 2 between the body portion 1 and the vertical flange 4 of the angle-plate 3 seats within a suitable transverse recess 12, formed in the upper edge of the sill. The flange 4 of the angle-plate 3 rests snugly against the longitudinal sill on the side opposite the body portion 1, so that the upper end of the sill is held between the body portion 1 and the flange 4, whereby any accidental movement of the bracket is prevented. The transverse bars 13 of the hay-rack 14 are passed lengthwise through the retaining-bolt 6, the nut 7 of the latter being tightened to draw the cross-bar 15 of the bolt 6 into holding contact with the upper surface of the frame-bar 13.
It is to be understood that as many brackets as desired may be used, and that said brackets are firmly secured to the wagonbolster and body-sills, and that the hay-rack bars are removably secured to the brackets by the retaining-bolts 6. The retainingbolts are preferably disconnected from the plates 2 and the hay-rack put in place with the transverse bars 13 alined above the plates 2, when the terminals of the retaining or loop bolts 6 may be passed through the plates and secured by the nuts 7.
It will be noted that my construction provides for supporting the hay-rack directly from the sills of the wagon-body, the brackets being used as a connecting medium between the wagon-body and hay-rack.
While I prefer that the angle-plate 3 be riveted or otherwise secured in proper posithe rack-plate, and an angle-plate secured to the under side of the rack-plate with a depending'portionparallel to but spaced from the body portion of the bracket, said body portion being provided with means for securing same to a wagon-sill.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two wltnesses.
