Patented Dec. 10, 1907.
Application filed Oc ob 8. 1906. Serial No. 338.051. Renewed October '7. 1907. Serial No. 396.326.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, FRANK M. MORTON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Columbus, in the county of Muscogee and State of Georgia, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Trucks; and I do declare the following to be afull, 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.
This invention relates to improvements in trucks, and more particularly to one adapted for use in spinning mills for holding and carrying the bobbins.
The object of the invention is to provide a truck of this description, which will be of simple, strong, durable and comparatively inexpensive construction and well adapted for the purpose intended.
I/Vith the above and other objects in view, the invention consists of certain novel features of construction, combination and arrangement of parts, as will be hereinafter de scribed and claimed.
In the accompanying drawings :-Figure 1 is a perspective view of the improved truck; Fig. 2 is a bottom plan view of the same; Fig. 3 is a detail, vertical transverse secti'onal view, taken on the plane indicated by the line 83 in Fig. 2.
The improved truck is constructed entirely of metal, and comprises a rectangular sheet metal body 1 secured upon a frame 3, which runs upon supporting wheels. The vertical sides and ends of the body 1 are reinforced around their upper edges by strips of metal 4 riveted or otherwise secured upon their outer faces and they are also strengthened and connected at their ends by anglemetal corner strips 5 similarly secured upon their outer faces. The frame 3 consists of two spaced longitudinally-extending bars 6, which have their ends riveted or otherwise secured as at 7, upon the inwardly bent lower ends 8 of spaced uprights 9. These uprights are inclined outwardly as clearly shown in Fig. 1 and have their upper ends 10 bent angularly into a horizontal plane and secured by bolts or the like 11 upon thebottom of the body or receptacle 1. These bolts 11 as seen in Fig. 3 pass through apertures in the bottom of the body 1 and also through alining apertures in a transversely extending reinforcing strip 12 upon the top or inner face of the bottom of said body.
The frame 3 is supported by two small end wheels 13 arranged in longitudinal alinement between the parallel bars 6 and also by two large intermediate wheels 14 arranged in transverse alinement upon the outer sides of said bars 6. The journals of the end wheels 13 rotate in bearings 15 formed in the depending ends of angle brackets 15, which latter are engaged with the bottom faces of the bent ends 8 of the uprights 9 and are secured thereto by the rivets or other fastenings 7. The large intermediate wheels 14 rotate upon journals or spindles 16 formed by reducing the ends of a transverse bar 17 secured upon the bottom faces of the bar 6 at their centers by bolts or similar fastenings 18, as clearly shown in Fig. 2.
From the foregoing it will be seen that the truck is of exceedingly strong and durable construction and at the same time it is simple and may be manufactured at a comparatively small cost. Owing to the compact and peculiar arrangement of its supporting Wheels, the truck may be conveniently moved about and between the spinning machines, so that the bobbins may be readily placed in or removed from its elevated body.
Various changes in the form, proportion and the minor details of construction may be resorted to without departing from the principle or sacrificing any of the advantages of I this invention as defined by the appended claims. I
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters-Patent, .is:
A truck of the character described comprising a rectangular metallic body, reinforcing strips around the upper edge of said body, angle metal strips at the corners of said body, a frame for supporting said body in an elevated position, said frame comprising spaced longitudinal bars, pairs of upwardly and outwardly inclined uprights having oppositely-bent ends in engagement with the bottom of said body and the ends of said longitudinal bars, cleats upon the upper side of the bottom of said body, fastening devices uprights, -fastening devices passed through said longitudinal bars, the lower ends of said uprights and said angle brackets, wheels disposed between the spaced longitudinal bars spindles, substantially as shown and de- 10 scribed.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand. in presence of two subscribing witadjacent to their ends and journaled in bearnesses. ings on said angle brackets, a transverse bar FRANK M. MORTON connecting said longitudinal bars adjacent to Witnesses:
their centers and formed at its ends with spindles, and wheels journaled upon said EUGENE RAY, BLANOHARD K. SooTT.
