Description
y s. C. KENAGA. Dumping Platform for Wagonsi No.l 83,288. A Patented 0er. 20,' 1868.
77@'371/655566?, I -Iwfuerr/ZTO 7' mit (tira-Q may IMPROVE!) DUMPING-PLATFORM The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent yand making peut of the same.
To all whom it lmay/y concern:
- Be it known that I, SAMUEL OfKnNAGA, of the .cityof Kankakee, in the county of Kankakee, and State of Illinois, have invented a new and useful maf chine for dumping wagons or cars of their contents, andlknownas S. O. Kenagas Dumping-Platform; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description ofthe construction and operation of the same, reference being had to the annlredrawings, making a part of this specification, in w c Figure 1 is a vertical Vlongitudinal section through the middle of the machine, and
Figure 2 is a horizontal view, with the Vtrap-door raised and the door broken away at places to show its construction underneath.
Similar letters refer to like parts.
A areposts fonsnppcrtnfiloor.
B is floor.
O, the dumping-platform.
D, the axle.
E, bearings.
V G', caps.
1I, upright posts for support of lever. J, braces.
lever.
Ii, a lfulcrum.
M, dogs.
O, levers to the dogs M.
P, slots in iioor.
Q, trap-door.
R, bevel ends of joistsin trap-door.
I", bevel ends in oo'r-jo'ist to dumping-platform.
S, shaft to lever.
s', anti- 'iction roller.
T, spout.
t', bin.
U, contents of wagon.
V, wagon dumping itsy load.
" p', has'pto. fasten the shaft.
X, rods to hold the wagon on the platform.
Y, eye-bolts to fasten the rods to the platform.
y', rings to pass on the hubs. p
d, hinges to trap-door.
A A are posts supporting the iiooring B B, in which the dumping-platform C is cut or tted.
D is the axle on which the platform is suspended, and issupported by the bearings E E in the caps F F of the posts G G.
I I are upright posts. They are firmly held by the braces J J, and form a support for the lever K, on its fulcrum, L. v
N is a cross-piece framed into the posts I I, and also into the postA that supports the door. It tends to stiien the-posts I I, and forms a restfor the dogs M M,^which are attached to it by hinges at the feet of them, and their upper ends made to swing to and from the under edge ofthe platform VC at c', by means -of the levers 0 0, which 'pass through the slots P P to the iioor above.
Q is a trap-door, hung onhinges at q q, and made to cover the opening over the spout T; The ends of the joist forming the door are bevelled, R, and made to lap on .the bevel ends r of the floor-joists in the platform C.
' S is a shaft connected with the long sweep of .the lever K. It has a T-head, and passes up through the oor a distance equal to the sweep ofthe long arm of the lever K, in its depressing the rear end of the platffor'm. to its required inclination.A Upon returning the platform to a level with the floor, the shaft draws down so as to bring the T-head even with the docu-where it irs-covered with-a liasp,lpfrmlyl;fastened .in the fluor, p
and transmits, through the lever K, Aa firm support for the platform to rest upon. i
S is an anti-friction roller, bedded in the centreoi` -the rear end of the platform, for the lever K to bear against. t
T is a spout to conduct the contents Uof the wagon V to the bin t. p
X X are iron rods linked to the eye-bolts Y Y.l They are firmly bolted to the platform O, at the opposite end of the rods. Rings y are attached so as to press on the hubs of the two hind wheels, and prevent the wagon from backing on the .platform when in position for discharging its load.
In iig. l, the rear end of the platform isrepresented asA being depressed, and its front end elevated, so as to produce an inclination sufficient for a wagon standing on it to be discharged Vof its contents by its own r gravity. This inclination of the platform G is con` trolled by the shaft S which is connected with the level` K. When the platform is not in use, it lies level with the iioorB B. The trap-door Q is closed on the end of the platform, and the dogs M M are thrown over by means of their levers O 0, so as to catch under the end of the platform, and hold it firmly in position, independent of thelever K, which might, :from a `v cause, become loose through imperfections or neglef, in fastening the shaft S. p
. The .most particular adaptation of this machine ig at warehouses, where grain is received by wagon-loans in bulk, and required to be shovelled into hoppers or bins constructed to receive it. In cases where ware houses are constructed on a suilciently high location, as the bank along a canal, or on the surface where 'a railroad is constructed through deep cuts, and no mae chinery required for elevating the grain, the dumpingplatform may be constructed alongside of such ware-v house, at a suiiicient elevation to spout the grain to any part of the Warehoues required, and reached by means of constructing a drive-way of such inclination as will admit of a loaded wagon being driven up to it. In cases Where warehouses are constructed on a level with the means of shipment, as a canal-boat or railroad-car, and machinery is used for elevating and conveydng grain sufiicient to spout into the canal-boat or car, the dumping-platform may be constructed alongside of the warehouse, by means of a pit dug of such depth and size as will admit of its Working, and spouting the grain into a hopper, from whence it is conveyed oielevated to the bins or place of storage required.
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure byLetters Patent, is-
Tlie arrangement and construction of the door B, dumping-platibrm Cr rods X, and hub-rings y','leve1 K, shaft- S, hasp 1)', dogs M, lever O, and trap-door Q, in combination with posts A, G, and I, axle D, caps F, friction-roller S, fulcrum L, rest N, spout T, and bin t', substantially in the manner and for the purposes herein shown and described.
