Specification of Letters Patent.
latented 39,11. 36, 1909.
Application filed October I, 1906. Serial No. 336,907.
T all whom it may concern;
Be it known that I, Gnonon (,J. W QR'IMAN, a. citizen of the United States, residing at Wort/men, in the county of Luke and State of Colorado, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Dumping and Loading Cars; and I do declare the followin to be it full, clear, and exact description ill the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it {LIJIlBl'titlllS to make and use the some, reference being had to tho eccomponying drawings, and to the letters and figures of reference marked thereon, which form :1. port of this specification.
My invention reli tes to iin irovcinents in dumping and loading cars, the ii'iventirm being more especially applicable to flirt cars of the class known as push cars employed in nstruction work and adopted to be pushed [tong on the track by the workmen. The invention may, however, be used in connection with cars of large size and the invention is therefore not limited to push ears.
The invention will now be described in detsil reference being made to the soemupuny i drawing in which,
igure 1 is a top plan view of a. push cer equi ped with my improved construction the umping and loading body bein shown in place on the truck.
' tion of the some viewed in tlie'direction of errow'A in Fig. 1. Fi 3 is a cross section taken on theline 3-3 Fig. 1. F i .4 is an end elevation showing the movable ody in the dumping position. Fig. 5 is on end view showing the movable body in the loadin 0- sition. Fig. 6 is c Ears eotive view in e eil showing the move. is body detached.- from the car and in the colic sed position. Fig. '7 is s perspective view oFone of the plates atteohsd to the platform of the car to facilitate loading and unloading. Fig. 8 is a vertical section taken on the line 8----8 Fig. 3.
The same reference characters indicate the some parts in u .ll the views.
Let the numeral ,5 designate an ordinary push cor provided with e lotform 6 mounted on eyebenms 7, the letter eing secured to the sxlebesr n s in any Suitable an r- Securely oltsd to the I-bcenis on one side of the car is a windlsss structure which as shown in the drawing is composed of a. numher of upright bars 9. As shown in the drawing the-re are four of these bars, two of which'inay be termed end burs while two others are centrally located and in close Fi 2 is a sidh elevae.
proximity to each other. The lower extremities of these bars 9 are turned inwardly as shown at 10 and provided with flanges 12 which are securely bolted to the of the i I-bezims 7. Upon tl'iese standsrds ll is jour nulod an operating shaft 13 provided with double Hung-ed w eels 14. which are made fast on the said shaft, \i 'liereby they rotate therewith, there being three of the sold wheels upon the said shaft, one wheel being centrally located between the two central standards 9 while one of the other wheels is located near each extremity of the shaft. As shown in the drawing this shaft 11; is provided with hand cranks if; to l'drliiiou; nuinipul stion. It is understood, however that any other ower may be connected with this shaft for t e purpose of operating the same.
the drawing hand power. alone will be sulficient for the purpose. In larger cars; however, it is evident that other power mey be required. Upon the said shaft 13 are also mounted two ratchet wheels 16, one being located near each extremity of the shaft. A. pawl 17 is mounted on the standard odju. cent em 11 rirtehet wheel, the said pewls being arranged tb engage the wheelsend look the shaft in any desired )OSitlOTl of ed'ustment. The shaft 13 is loos ed near the lower ex tremities of the Standards 9 and just above the platform 6. J onrneled in the top of the standards is another shaft 18 also provided with double flanged wheels 19 fast on the shaft and positioned to correspond to tlr? positions ofjthe wheels 14 on the 'sheit'l3. That is to'say the wheels 19 are located directly above the Wheels 14.
Extending transversely across the platform 6, is e number of list bars 8, three being shown in the drewin and indicated by dotted -lines in Fig. l. hese bsrssre connected with the platform at one extremity by means of pins ll. dropped through registering 0 enings formed in the bar and in the plot orm for the purpose. The bars 8 ere provided at one extremity with 9. depending part 20 extending st ri ht angles to the body of the bar end provided with an opening to receive a bolt 21 which is thresded in a, part 22 connected with the letlorm. This bolt is provided with at head having a sort of crank arm 2'; to facilitate manipulation. In the extrelnity of the bar providedwith the part 2Q, is journaled an entisfrictionel roller 24 which projects slightly above the bar in order to In the case of smell cars stirh as illustrated ill form a bearing for the bottom of the movable box or body of the structure. This box or body as shown in the drawing is composed of a bottom 26, a side member 27 and" two end members 28 hinged to the extremities of the side member as shown at 29.
The side and end members of the body are connected with the bottom by means of pins 30, which enter suitable openings formed in the bottom therefor, thus making the parts 27 and 28 readily removable whereby they may be folded into small compass (see Fig. '6). It is evident that the bottom of the movable device may be em loyed without the u right parts forming the box. These upri 1; members are attaihed to increase the Tiolding capacity of the device. The outer extremities of the end members 28 or their extremities farther to the right referri to Fig. 3 of the drawing are provided wit vertically disposed separated strips 31 forming ways to receive a removable side member 82. The inner extremity of the bottom 26 is provided withupwardly-projecting outer lugs 33 adapted to receive hooks 34 connected with the extremities of cables 35 adapted to pass around the wheels 13 and 19 for the purpose of handling the movable structure. he extremities of the car platform 6 are provided with metal members 36 provided with openings in their outer extremities to receive pins 37 which also pass through openin s in lugs 38 with which the extremities of t e body bottom 26 are provided. The pins 37 are removable to permit the movable body to slide to the loading position shown in Fig. 5. When in the position shown in the last named figure, supporting legs 39 provided with hook-shaped extremities 40 are connected with the lugs 38 to facilitate the handling of the movable body. These legs 39 are preferably adjustable being composed of two telescoping arts, whereby their length ma be regulated at will. The bottom 26 of t e receptacle 25 is provided with separated strips 41 which occupy positions on opposite si es of the bars 8 when the said body is in place upon the platform (see Fig. 8).
Assuming that the car is loaded, that is to saythat the movable body whether consisting of the bottom 26 alone or the entire struc ture composed of the bottom and the side and end members, is in the position shown in Fig. 3, and it is desired to dump the same, the cables will be attached to the wheels 14 of the shaft 13, and then carried upwardly over the wheels 19 of the, shaft 18 (see Fig.4) a ter which the hooks 34 will be connected with the ap'ertured hgs 33 of the movable bod Then the shaft 13 is rotated, the saii body will li e lifted th osition shown inFig 4 or to a sufiicie t in%lll rrb,l/lon to per;- mit umping. In this case it is of course assumed that the pin 37 is in place whereby the outer part of the movable body is hinged to the outer edge of the car. After the dumping is completed, the said body is lowered to the position shown in Fig. 3. N ow if it is desired to load the car, the pins 37 are removed, the cables disengaged from the wheels 19 and directly connected with the said body as shown in Pig. 3. Then as the cables are released, the body may be moved outwardly upon the platform by the aid of the anti-frictional rollers 24, until it overbalances and slides downwardly to the position shown in Fig. 5. 'lhis position greatly facilitates the loading of the car, after which the shaft 13 is turned in the opposite direction, and the loaded body drawn upwardly upon the platform in a manner readily understood.
If desired when the body 25 is in the position shown in big. 5, the cable 35 may be detached, and a grappling book (not shown) connected with the cable which may be employed for hauling large boulders from the body of the device, which boulders are too heavy to be handled by men directly without breaking them by blasting or otherwise.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim is:
1. A loading and dumping attachment for cars comprising in combination with the car, a Windlass structure mounted thereon, a transversely tiltable body, flexible means for connecting the tiltable body with the wind lass, and means for hingingthe said body to the car including a removable hinge member whereby the said body may be readily de tached, the axis of the hinge being parallel with the length of the car.
2. 'Ihe combination with a car, of a windlass structure mounted thereon and rovided with upper and lower sets of whee s, cables connected with one set of wheels and adapted to pass over the other set of wheels, and'a dumping member having one side connected with the cable, its opposite side being hinged to the car to ermit dumping when the side connected wit the cable is raised. the axis of the hinge being arallel with the length of the car, whereby t e dumping member dischar es in adirection at right. angles to the lengt of the car, the dumping member also being detachable at. its hinging connection to errpit lateral movement for the purpose set ort i.
3. The combination with a car, of a windlass mounted thereon, a l )dy mounted on the car and movable transversely to the length of the car, and a cable connection between the windlass and the said movable body whereby the latter may be manipulated, substantially as described.
4. l'he combination with a car, of a body hinged to dump in a direction transversely to the length of the car, and detachable at its hinging connection to permit lateral moveinent for dumping or loading purposes.
tachable at its hinging connection to allow 10 it to travel in a direction transversely to its hinging axis.
In testimon whereof I affix my signature in presence 0 two witnesses.
