'I-IOIS'IING OR CARRYING MECHNISM FOR BARNS.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed October 14, 1908.
Patented June 8, 1909.
Serial No. 457,676.
To all whom it may concern." l
Be it known that I, MENNo S. Yonne, a citizen of the United States, residing at Shipshewana, in the county of Lagrange and State of Indiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Hoisting and Carrying Mechanism for Barns, of which the following is a specification.
The present invention relates to hoisting and carrying mechanism for barns, particularly those of the circular or polygonal type.
The primary object of the present invention is to provide in connection with a circular track, hoisting mechanism that can be carried around the track and requires no track stop or tripping device to release the carrier. In other words, it has been the aim to provide mechanism which will lift the load from any point, will carry it to any height, and will run it along in either direction without change of rope or hitch.
The preferred embodiment of the invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, and is described in the following specification, but it will be evident from an inspection of the claims hereto appended that the invention is not necessarily limited to the structure disclosed.
In the drawings z-Figure 1 is a vertical longitudinal sectional view through a barn, showing the mechanism in place. Fig. 2 is a top plan view of such mechanism. Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the carrier preferably employed. Fig. 4 is a` vertical sectional view o n an enlarged scale substantially on the line 4-4 of Fig. 2. Fig. 5 is a plan view of the structure disclosed in Fig. 4,*but with the track removed. Fig. 6 is a detail perspective view of one form of hoisting mech* anism that may be employed.
In the accompanying drawings, the'barn is designated generally bythe reference numeral 1, and has a roof 2 from which is suspended a circular track 3 by means of a se* ries of suitable hangers 4. This track may be of any well known type, but is preferably provided with oppositely extending track flanges 5.
Located beneath the track is a continuous frame formed of a series of angularly disposed beams 6, joined at their adjacent ends by triangular pieces 7 secured to the u per and lower faces of the end portions o the beams 6 and projecting beyond the same. The frame also includes, as a part of its make up, a bar 8 constituting the body of a carrier, this bar having suitable brackets 9 on which are j ournaled trolley wheels 1() that run upon the track flanges 5 of the track. Other brackets 11 are located at the juncture of the several `beams 6 and have trolley wheels 12 that operate on said track flanges 5.
A hanger 13 secured to one side of the carrier body 8 has pulleys 14 therein, and over said pulleys pass oppositely extending stretches or runs 15 of a cable, said cable passing downwardly through sling pulleys 16 and being secured to the opposite side of the body 8. This structure will be evident by reference to Fig. 3. The sling pulleys 16 may be of any desirable character. The oppositely extending stretches or runs 15 of the cable pass around the opposite outer side of the frame 6 7 and around sets of horizontally disposed guide pulleys 17 j ournaled between the angular plates 7. The end por tions of these stretches or runs are crossed, as shown at 18 in Fig. 2, and extend in opposite directions for some distance, thence over suitable pulleys 19 from which they may be carried in any desired direction and to any suitable hoisting mechanism. In order that the cable may not drop off the pulleys 17, outstanding fingers 20 are preferably employed, arranged beneath the plates 7. In like manner outstanding guard strips 21 are preferably located at the end of the carrier body 8, as illustrated in Fig. 2. Rollers as 21HL may be employed, said rollers being secured to the frame and operating against the outer side of the track for the purpose of preventing binding engagement due to lateral strains upon the frame.
As above stated, any suitable hoisting mechanism may be employed, disposed in any relation desired or found satisfactory, but in order to disclose a completely operative structure, I have shown in Figs. 1 and 6 a pair of hoisting drums 22 about which the ends of the cable are wrapped. These drums have on their adjacent ends friction wheels 23 and said'ends can be raised and lowered so as to bring the friction wheels either into engagement with driving friction wheels 24 or with a brake beam 25. The said ends are raised and lowered by means engage the driving friction wheels 24. `Both stretches or runs of the cable will thus be simultaneously wound'up,causing the elevation of the sling pulleys, together with the load vattached to them. Whenthe load has been raised to the desired height, one or the other of the drums 22 is lowered. The result is that the entire'franie 6-7will be rotated in one direction or the other, 'and this rotation is continued until the load is brought to the desired point of release. Vi'liththis 'structure therefore, any material or article can be raised to the iipperpo'rtion of the barn and carried freely in either direction withoutth'e necessityof changing the rope 'and without using any track stop or tripping device.
Asalready stated, the arrangement of the partstogether with their relative positions can be altered if desired, and means can also be associated with the driving shaft 27 for positively lowering or drawing downward the "sling pulleys.
It is also to be understood that other changes, as for instance in the size and proportion ofthe parts can be made without departing Afrom the invention as defined by the appended claims.
Having thus described my invention, what is claimed as new is l. The combination with "a circular track, ofa continuous rotary supporting frame hung from the track, hoisting mechanism :suspended fromthe frame, and means for operating the hoisting mechanism and rotating the frame.
2. The combinationwith a continuous circular track, of"a continuous rotary supportingframe associated with the track, rollers carried by the frame at intervals and operating on the track, hoisting` mechanism suspended from the frame, and means for operating the hoisting mechanism and rotating the frame in either direction.

4. The combination with acircular track,
"of 'a continuous 'supporting frame rotatably mounted thereon, a hoisting device, and a cable connected to the hoisting device and vhaving opposite stretches extending around opposite sides of the frame for elevating said device and rotating the frame in opposite directions.
5. The combination with a stationary circular track, of a continuous rotary support ing frame located below the track, trolley wheels carried by the frame and operating on the track, pulleys carried by opposite portions of the frame, a hoisting device, and an elevating cablefor the device passing'around diiferent sides of the frame and operating against thel pulleys.
6. The combination with 'a continuous circular track, of a continuous frame located beneath the saine and comprising angularly disposed connected bars,trolleywheels earried by the frame at the connectionsof the bars and operatingr on the track, outstanding pulleys located at the connections of `the bars, a hoisting device, Aand' a cable for operating the device land rotating the frame, said cable having stretches extending in opposite directions from the hoisting device around the frame and engaged with the pulleys.
7. The combination with a lcontinuous overhead track, of a support movable'thereon, and a cable for rotating the support in opposite directions, having stretches extending in opposite directions aroundythe track and having said stretches crossing.
S. The combination with a contii'iuous overhead track, of a rotatable support mounted thereon, and a cable for rotating the support in opposite directions, said cable having stretches extending in opposite directions around the track,-the end portionsof said stretches being crossed.
9.
