JOHN COLLINS, or mnemonic. I
, LOADING APBARATUS.
Be it known that I, Join; COLLINS, a citizen of the United States, residing atDayton, in the county of Montgomery and State-of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Loading Apparatus; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full,
clear, and exact description of the invention,
such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
My invention consists in the novel features hereinafter described, reference being had-to the accompan 'ng drawings which illustrate one form in w ich I have contemplated embodying my invention and said invention is fully disclosed in the following description and claims.
Referring to the said drawings, Figure 1 is a side elevation of an apparatus embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is an end view of the same. Fig. 3 i'sa top plan'view of the apparatus. Fig. 4 is a longitudinal vertical sectional view of the same. 'Fi'g. 5'i's a transverse vertical sectional view of the machine, on line 5-5 of Fig. 1.
The object of my invention is to provide ban a paratus for removing loose material and disc arging the same, and is particularly designed for removing mined coal or ore in a mine, and for dischargingit into cars or other devices for facilitating its removal from the mine. -The apparatus is, however, applicable to other uses.
My invention consists of a vehicle which is preferably provided with a motor for operatmg the various arts of the mechanism as hereinafter described andalso for pro elling the vehicle forward or backward, an capa-, ble ofbeing steered by the operator. not, however, limit myself to a motor propelled and operated apparatus as the operatmg parts may be driven by hand if desired and the apparatus may be propelled in other ways. Upon the vehicle frame is mounted a conveyer, disposed in a substantially horizontal" or horizontally inclined position and being preferably an endless conveyer such as a belt reinforced by transverse slats, or otherwise constructed. In advance of the forward end of the conveyer is arranged a piv oted scoop, the bottom of which is closely adjacent to the ground and which can berun or'forced beneath a portion of the material 1a to be removed, by advancing the vehicle.

v Mechanism is rovided for tilting or tipping the scoop, pre erably by rocking it rearward, so as to discharge its contents upon the conveyer, and I prefer to provide '0 erative connections between the scoop an conveyer so that the upper section of the latter will be operated in a rearward'direction as thescoo is tilted. The conveyer is also provided wit 1 mechanism for operating it independently of the scoop, so that the material dumped thereon can be moved rearward far enoug'h'so that it will not fall ofl into the scoo and to provide space for thenext scoop ll, and also for operating the conveyer to run oh and discharge the contents thereof when it 'is fully loaded, and the vehicle has beenmoved into which the contents of the conveyer is to be discharged. I also provide. the conveyer With adjusting mechanism -for its rear or discharge end to enable the same to be raised or lowered to facilitate delivery 'to a car or other ap aratus, when desired.
I n the form of my invention shown in the accompanying drawings A represents the frame of a sup orting vehiclewhich is supported upon 1t B represents the frame of an endless conveyer pivotally mounted at the forward end of the frame A, uponshaft b and extending rearwardly preferably beyond the rear end of the vehicle. The shaft 1 is, rovided with a drum band the rear end 0 the frame is provided with a roller 'b and upon said drum and roller is'mounted the endless conveyer. B of any desired construction. The rear end of the conveyer frame is supported adjustably so that it can be raised or lowered and held in its adjusted position. In this instance I have shown the Vehicle frame proe traction wheels a a and steering whee a.
vided on opposite sides with toothed segv s b andthe frame B provided with weighted pawls l) to engage said racks, and hold the frame in its adjusted position. The frame B can be raised and lowered by means of a Windlass b and flexible connections 1) b extending therefrom to the conveyer frame, the said windlassbeing operatedeither by hand, as by crank if, or the Windlass may be connected with the motor if desired. i v
In advance of the forward end of the conveyer B is a pivoted scoop C, which is preferably pivoted to the. shaft B, as shown.
' The scoop consists of bottom and sides and is limit myself to t is exact mechanism for elemay '- the conve venting previousl electric motor operate ,b
open'at' the rear .to facilitate dumping its contents rearward upon the conveyler B.
pon the main frame A and su ported in suitable bearings is a crank shaft extending across themachine and provided with cranks d, which are connected by links d twith'the scoop C above its pivotal connec tions for dum ling the scoop as indicated in dotted lines i 1. I do not, however,
preferably vating) so moving any material along to acilitate the dumping of the load in thescoo The vehicle frame A is referably rovided with a suitable motor indicated at 181, which may baa steam or ex losive engine or an storage battery or from a distant source 0 power through a trailing wire, or other desired form of motor.
, The main shaft m ofthemotor is-operatively connected with the traction wheels a a in any 1 desired manner for operating the vehicle for- 'thedrum shaft ward or backward. In this instance I have shown said shaft connected by sprocketchain m, to acounter shaft m provided with the usual differential ear and clutch mechanism, not shown, sai shaft m being connected by sprocket chains m? to .the traction wheels in a well known manner. have also indicated a clutch lever m" for 0 erating the machine forward or rearwar .b'y correspondin movements of the lever. Any usual or pre erred connections maybe employed for transmittin the power of the motor to the traction w eels;
I also provide independent mechanism for connectin the motor, when desired to the drum sha t b, and to the crank shaft D. In this instance I have shown a second counter shaft E mounted on the frame A and con 'nected with the motor shaft m bysprocket chain m The counter shaft, is also rovided with loosel mounted sprocket wlieel e connected by 0 am e to a sprocket e on b, and saidcounter shaft E is also provided with a sprocket wheel a loosely mounted thereon and connected b chain e with thesprocket wheel 0 on crank shaft D, Suitable clutches e e are provided and pawls c c pivotedg;
" means for'tipping said scopip deposited on the conveyer further .of-said scoop, substantially as on shaft E for throwing the loose wheels 0 and e into connectionwith the shaft, the clutch c bein operated by a hand-lever F and the clutc e being operated by foot lever G.-
I also refer to provide the f'rameA with a seat H or the driver or operator as shown within convenient reach of the various 0 erating levers, and of a steering shaft S w icli is operatively connected with the steering wheel a in 'any* desired manner, stance by means of link 8.
