DETACHABLE SEELF FOR STORE-LADDERS.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Sept. 8, 1908.
Application filed May 23, 1908. Serial No. 434,590.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE HENRY Rn)- which the'followin'g is a specification.
Thisinvention has relation to detachable shelves for store-ladders and it consists in the novel construction and arrangement of its parts as hereinafter shown and described. The object of the invention is to provide a detachable shelf for a store-ladder which may be conveniently used for holding goods about to be placed upon the store shelves or while being removed therefrom and which may also be used as a latfor m upon which a person may stand while handling the goods upon the upper tiers of shelves.
The shelf is of. simple construction and may be easily and readily detached from or applied to the storedadder.
The attachment consists primarily of a shelf having end portions which are separated from each other by a recess and each end portion is provided with a bracket which is adapted to engage sockets mounted at the sides of the ladder. A leaf is hingedly connected with the shelf at the rear edge thereof and opposite the recess which divides the end portions of the said shelf. The said leaf may be swung up so that a personmay. pass up Y along the ladder and through the said recess between the end portions of the shelf and may ascend onthe ladder above the shelf when the said lafmay be swung down over sides with the pockets 2 which arepreferably located in alinement with the ladder-rounds 3. The .shelf 4 is provided at its rear edge with the notches 5 which are adapted to receive the uprights of the ladder 1. The brackets are attached to the under side of the shelf and support the end portions of *the said shelf. The said brackets are pro vided with the pintles 7 which enter the sockets 2. The said brackets are of peculiar configuration and each comprises a horizontal portion 8 which lies under the end portion of the shelf 4 and the downwardly inclined por-' tion 9 which is pitched at an angle to the upright of the ladder 1. The brace portion 10 connects at its lower end with the portion 8 and at itsupper end with the outer portion of the shelf 4. The pintles 7 are provided at the ends of the portions 8 and 9. By providing brackets of such configuration the end portions of the shelf 4 are thoroughly and effectually braced. The end portions of the shelf dare separated or defined by a recess 1 1 provided at the forward end of the said shelf 4 and at a oint intermediate of its end. The leaf 12 is iiingedly connected with the rear end portions of the shelf 4 and may be swung 1 in between the uprights of theladder' 1 or may be swun into a plane above the recess 11 which de shelf 4.
' From the foregoing description it will be cending the ladder 1 may pass through the recess 1 1 u above the shelf 4 and. when above the said shelf the leaf 12 may be swung down over the recess 11 so that the shelf 4:
and the leaf 12 may be used as a platform upon which a person may stand for the; purpose of arranging the goods upon shelves in the up er tiers. Also when one is' standing upon t e lower portion of the ladder the top ofthe leaf 12 may be swung back and the end portion of the shelf 4 may be used as supports upon Which'the goods may be placed while being arranged upon the shelves or removed therefrom. By reason of the fact that the sockets 2 are located upon the outer sides of the ladder-uprights 1 and the recesses 5 in the shelf 4 receive the forward edges'f the said hes the end portions of the p uprights of the ladder, the attachment is held in place'against stress in all directions except no danger of the attachment 'beconiing dislodged fromits osition upon the same. Again by reason 0 the fact that the sockets 2 are located in alinement with the ladder rounds 3, the weight which is borne by the shelf 4 will have no tendency to bow or dis tort the uprights of the ladder 1 out of their pro er vertical alinement.
'aving described my invention what I claimv as new and desire to secure by Letters- Patent is f 1. Incombination with a ladder an attachment comprising a shelf having at its rear edge notches for the reception of the uprights of the ladder, brackets attached to the under sides of the shelf and sockets mounted upon the upri hts of the ladder for engagement with said brackets.
'2. In combination with a ladder having upon the sides of its uprights sockets, an at-.
tachment comprising a shelf having at its rear e e notches for the reception of the uprights of the ladder, brackets inountediipon the under sides of the end portions of the shelf for engagement with the sockets upon the ladder. I
. 3. In combination with a ladder having sockets mounted upon its uprights, an attachment comprising a shelf having end portions defined by a recess cut at the forward edge thereof, and brackets mounted upon the under sides of the shelf for engagement with the sockets.
4. Incombination with a ladder having sockets upon its uprights, an attachment comprising a shelf. aving upon its under sides brackets for engagement :with the sockets and being provided at its forward edge with a recess with defined end portions,
a leaf hinged to the said shelf and adapted-
