To (ZZZ whmn it may concern:
Be it known that I, FRED l NnLsoN, a citi- 2011 of the United States, resid lug at McComb,
in the county of Pike and State of Mississippi, v
' in series to form a conveyor of any desired length' The principal object of the invention is to provide a conveyer for loading railroad-ties onto cars, for which purpose a portable oonveyer is required, to be transported from place to place and to be assembled. to convey ties from piles at varying distances from the track.
A further object of the invention is to provide a conveyer having one end so hinged that it may be swung upwardly out of oper ative position to permit the passage of cars without disconnecting or removing the entire conveyer.
With these and other objects in view the present invention consists in the combina tion and arrangement of parts, as will be hereinafter fully described, shown in the accompanying drawings, and particularly pointed out in the appended claims, it being understood that changes in the form, proportion, size, and minor details may be made without departing from the spirit or sacrificing any of the advantages of this invention.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a view in side elevation of the improved conveyer assembled and in operative position. Fig. 2 is a top plan View of the conveyer. Fig. 3 is a longitudinal sectional view of the conveyer. Fig. 4 is a detail longitudinal sectional view of the u per end section. Fig. 5 is a detail longitu inal sectional view of the intermediate interchangeable sections. Fig. 6 is a view in side elevation of the adjustable scaffold for supporting the conveyor. Fig. 7 is an inverted plan view of means employed ior connectingthe several sections Fig. 8 is a 5.0 provide a view in side elevation of the section-connecting means.
Like characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all of the figures of the drawings.
In its preferred embodiment the improved. conveyor forming tne subject-matte of this application comprises an upper 0 section (shown a WllOlQ ill) and any desired number of interchangeablesections, (designated a whole by 11.) The section 10 comprises parallel side bars 12, spaced as by thebraces l nd rigidly connected as by the bolts 14. ween the side bars and journaled therein are the spiked rollers 15, l1aving their trunnions extending l .ough one side bar and provided thereon with sprockets 16, upon which a chain 17 mounted. to connect the several sprockets and operate the several rollers simultaneously. The upper end oi. the section 10 is prov ded with hinges 18, by means of which a portion of the side bars (designated as 1.9) and the upper ere trerne roller may be swung upwardly, indicated in outline in Fig. 3, to permit the passsage of a car. F or engagement with a car and to hold the conveyer in position the e ztremity' of the section 10 is provided with downwardly-depending spurs 20, and to permit the movement of the end it) a chaintightener 21 is employed. Any approved means, as the hook 22, may be employed to hold the end 19 rigid with the side bars 12.
The interchangeable sections ll. comprise side bars 23, braces 2%, bolts 25, and spiked rollers 26, similar to the corresponding parts of the section 10 and similarly assembled. The rollers are also provided with sprockets 27, upon which. is mounted the chain 28, connecting all of said sprockets and tightened by a chain-tightener 29.
To connect the several sections, the side bars at one end provided with a plate 30, having a transverse eye or opening 31 and secured, as by bolts 32, while the opposite end of neath. and to support the sections. When.
Any approved power for operating. may be connected in any approved manner, as a, chain 47, leading from. the motor to a sprocket 48, secured to the trunnion of any one of the rollers.
From the foregoing description it is be lievedthat the operation of'the conveyor will be fully understood.
Having thus describedthe invention, wh at. is claimed is- 1'. A; conveyor comprising. interchangeable sections embodying spaced side. bars, rollers jourtnaled'v transversely between and havin trunni'ons extending beyond the side bars, Wheels carriedupon theextended trunnions, a flexible member. connecting the wheels to rotate simultaneously, auxiliary Wheels carried' by the trunnions of the end rollers, means to connect the sections end to end, and a flexible member connecting the auxiliary wheels.
2. A conveyer comprising, interchangeable sections embodying spaced side bars, rollersjournal'ed' transversely between and having trunnions extending beyond the side bars, sprockets carried upon the extended trunnions, a chain passing about andcomwotingv the sections end to end',.li hks carriediliyt'lie sections, and' a truss-rodlsecured to the links and'. sp arming and. supp orting the j 'uncture" of the. sections. I I 5. Af'conveyer comprisinginterchangeable. able sections embodying spacedi side. bans,
