YOKE FOR WIRE-CARRYING HOOKS.
Specification. of Letters Patent.
Patented Nov. 26, 1907;
'- Application filed August 19. 19.07. Serial No. 389.282
To all whom it may concern:
Be, it known that I, BARTON SroNn DOWNEY, a citizen of the United States, residin at Kokomo, in the county of Howard and tate of Indiana-have invented a new and useful Yoke for Wire-Carrying Hooks, of
which the following isr a specification.
This invention relates to that class of devices for carrying rolls of wire to and from the said tubs into which they are dipped'for the purpose of cleaning dirt and grease from the wire in said rolls.
The ob'ect of the invention is to provide a cheap an simple yoke for sup orting a pluralit of pivoted hooks, on the ower arms of whic the rolls of wire are carried and held in a horizontal position by means of a latch enga ing the upper shorter arms of said hooks. n the accompanying drawin s: Fi ure 1 is-a perspective view of the yo e wit two arms, one in a closed and the other in a disengaged position. Fig. 2 is a cross section on the line 2-2 of Fig. 1.
Similar reference numerals are used for the same parts in all the figures.
The numerals 1 and 2 indicate two parallel metal beams separated a slight distance fromeach other in a horizontal direction by a short block 3 of metal placed centrally between them lengthwise, and. the three'parts rigidly fastened together in any approved manner. Spaces 4 and 5 are thus-formed between the beams at each end extending outwardly from the separating block 3. Connected-to the top of the se arating block 3 is a ring 6 by means of whic the yoke is carried to'and from the said tubs by a crane or other mechanism.
Pivoted to swing in the slots 4 and 5 are two hooks 7 and 8 res ectivelyfwhich hang downwardly as at 7 w en disconnected, but
when 1n use each assumes the position shown 'at 8, and is held thus elevated by a latch 9.
The hooks are each made with two arallel arms 10 and 11 joined to ether at their outer ends by a bar 12 perpen icular to said arms thelower of which is the longer.
At the outer ends of the separating block 3 and ivoted each to one of the beams 1 and 2 are t 1e latches 9 extending from its pivotal connection across to and slightly beyond the other bar. The latches 9 are each mounted on pins 13 projecting through the beams 1 and 2, and to the projecting end of each latch is pivotally connected'a rod 14, each rod extending to one end of the respective bars 1 and 2. Pivoted to one end of each of said bars 1 and 2 is a hand lever numbered 15 and 16 respectively, and to the lower end of each, one of the rods 14 is attached, The upper ends of the hand lever which extend a ove the bars are-shaped to form a grip 17. A spiral spring 1R'is fastened at one end to the projecting end of each latch 9 and at its other end to the adjacent bar 1 or 2 between the latch and its operating lever. The tendency of the'spring is to hold the latch closed and to return it to position after being moved by the hand lever.
' Having thus described the invention, what is claimed is 1. In an apparatus of the character described a, pair of spaced arallel beams, a hook pivoted between sai beams near each end, a latch for holding each hook in horizontal position, and independent means for o crating each of said latches and permit tllle hooks to turn on their pivots.
2. In an apparatus of the character described a pair of spaced parallel bars connected centrally by a short spacing block, a rectangular hook pivoted by one corner between said beams near their ends, said hooks having parallel upper and lower arms, latches adapted to engage said upper arms and hold the lower arms in horizontal position.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own, I have hereto ailixed my signatur in the presence of two witnesses.
, BARTON STONE DOWNEY.
