JOHN S. WILLIAMS, OF HURLEY, SOUTH DAKOTA.
JACK FOR RAISING VEHICLES.
Specification of Letters Patent.
" Patented April 21, 1908 Application filed July 26, 1907. Serial No. 385,715.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN S. WILLIAMS, citizen of the United States, residing at Hurley, in the county of Turner and State of South Dakota, have invented new and useful Improvements in Jacks for Raising Vehicles, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to jacks for raising vehicles, and the object is to provide a simple, easy and effective means for raising the wheels or axles of vehicles for the purpose of greasing the axles or washing the wheels.
The invention consists in the simple and novel construction and arrangement of parts, as will be hereinafter described and claimed.
I have illustrated my invention in the a0- 1 companying drawing in which Figure 1 is a view in side elevation. Fig. 2 is a view in end elevation, and Fig. 3 is an elevation of the side opposite that shown in Fig. .1. Fig. 4 is a plan view of standard with section of runner.
In the drawing A is a foot or runner having an enlarged forked head B, pivotally inclosing a small wheel C. The runner supports an upright standard D, set diagonally to the runner so that when the free end of the latter rests upon the ground the standard will be vertical. The runner and standard may be made of wood or metal, but I prefer the use of metal, both parts being cast integral, and the jack here shown is of this material. On the side shown in Fig. 3, the standard is thinned by a groove or furrow a, and slots 6, 1), round at the top and narrow at the bottom, are cut through the standard in the.
groove. A bar E, somewhat narrower and lighter than the standard, is adapted for adjustment to the latter. A bolt 0, with rounded head (1 is riveted at the lower end of the bar and projects at right angles, the bolt being ada ted to rest in the slots. The head of the b0 t being larger than the lower part of the slots, and smaller than the upper part, is easily removable and when inserted remains firmly in that position until lifted out. The desired height of the bar is regulated by the adjustment to the various slots. The standard being thinner at the slots, the bar is more easily adjusted and remains more firmly in its seat. The upper end of'the bar is enlarged and forked, the forward part c, or the part which raises the axle or hub of the wheel, is pointed somewhat in the shape of a axle or the hub of the. Wheel.
supports the object, is dished or flattened to form a secure rest. A long handle bar F is secured to the standard D near the bottom of the latter by a bolt 9, the standard being strengthened at this point by a projecting brace D, formed integral with it. The handle bar extends outward from the'standard at an angle of about forty five degrees.
-A brace G connects the top of the standard with the handle bar, the brace in the normal position of the jack, being nearly horizontal. Bolts g and h secure the brace respectively to the standard and to the handle. The upperend of the standard has projecting lugs 'i, 15, through which the bolts g, g, pass. The space between the lugs and between the standard and brace furnishes a slot somewhat larger than the bar E, while the lugs furnish support against which the bar rests. The operation of this jack will be readily understood. When the vehicle is to be lifted the handle of the jack is raised, depressing the lifting bar until the finger is under the The handle is then ressed down and the foot may be place upon the runner if necessary, and both and and foot used in raising. When the outer end of the runner touches the ground the lifting bar will be in a vertical osition and the object resting firmly u on tie flattened top. The necessary heig t of the bar is regulated by the adjustment of the bar in the slots. The wheel at the end of the runner prevents friction and aids in moving the ack.
Having described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent .is, I
1. A jack runner, a wheel consisting, in combination, of a ivoted to one end thereof,
- finger, while the rear portion f, or part which an upright stan ard on said runner having slots therein one above the other, a handle bar projecting outward and upward from said standard, a forked bar for adjustment in said slots and a brace for supporting the forked bar against said standard, as set forth.
2. In a lifting jack, the combination with a runner, a wheel pivotally secured to one end thereof, an upright standard thereto having slots therein one above the other, and projecting lugs at the to thereof, a handle bar secured to said stan ard and projecting outward and upwardtherefrom, a brace secured to said handle bar and to the face of name to this specification in the presence of said projecting lugs, of a bar ada ted for adtWo subscribing Witnesses.
justrnent to and support in sai slots, the r upper end thereof being freely supported by JOHN WILLlAMb' 5 said standard between said lugs, substan- Witnesses: 1 tially as described. W. H. ROBERTSON,
In testimony whereof I have signed my I. DOWNING.
