LOADING APPARATUS.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Apr. 3, 1917.
Application filed May 1, 1916. Serial No. 94,632.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, MANUEL BoUzo, a citizen of the Republic of Cuba, 67 OReilly street, Habana, Cuba, have 1nvented new and useful Improvements in Loading Apparatus, of which the followlng is a Specification.
This invention relates to loading apparatus, especially employed in handling sugar cane.
One object thereof is to provide an improved construction of releasing hook for slings, whereby the sling may be securely supported and readily released fOI'dHIIIIJIHg the load, when desired. Another object of the invention is to provide an improved tripping device for a plurality of releasing hooks supporting a series of slings, in order to release all the slings in a single operation and in a simple and efficient manner, by utilizing the weight of the load supported upon the slings.
My invention consists of the construction, combination and arrangement of parts as herein illustrated, described and claimed.
In the accompanying drawings, forming part hereof, I have illustrated a form of embodiment of my invention, in which drawings similar reference characters designate corresponding parts and in which:
Figure 1 is a plan view of the frame of my carrier;
Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the carrier frame;
Fig. 8 is an tripped position dotted lines;
Fig. 4 is a fragmentary detail showing a side elevation of a releasing hook;
Fig. 5 is an end elevation of a releasing hook; and,
Fig. 6 is a detail showing in perspective a part of a tripping device used for actuating a series of releasing hooks.
Referring to the drawings 1 designates a frame provided with curved braces 2 disposed at each end of and connected with the main body of the frame by means of inverted U-shaped bolts. Carried by the braces 2 are grooved sheaves 3, designed to receive ropes or cables or an overhead'track (not shown) upon which the device may be suspended and run.
A bar 4 is rockably disposed through a to one side of the end elevation in which the of the parts is indicated by residing at No.
frame 1 by bolts 6. On bar 4 are radially mounted a series of spaced, inverted U shaped brackets 7 the open ends of which engage the bar 4 and are secured thereto as by means of rivets 8. Bolts 9 are disposed through the brackets, and upon the projecting end of I each bolt 9 is disposed a link of the intermediate portion of a stripping chain 12, secured by a nut 10 and a lock-nut 11. To one end of each chain 12 is attached an eye formedin the top of a bifurcated shank 13, and to the opposite end of each chain 12 is attached a clevis pivotally connected to a releasing hook 14 which is pivotally retained in the bifurcation of the shank 13 by a pin 115. The shank 13 is provided. with a tapered S Ct one end of a flexible member 18 (adapted to'pass around and beneath the load), as shown in Fig. 4. The slings are completed by chains 19 which are attached to eyebolts secured to the side of the framework 1, opposite the bar 4.
The tripping device consists of an arm 20 formed on or secured to the middle portion of bar 4, and disposed substantially at a right angle to the brackets 7. In the normal position of the tripping device, in which the hooks 14 hold the the load on the chains 12 and 19, the arm 20 is maintained horizontal by means of a yoke 21, having its ends journaled in openings formed through brackets 22 secured to the side of frame 1, adjacent bar 4. Between the two brackets 22 is also mounted, beneath the yoke 21, a stop 23 arranged to limit downward movement of the arm 20. An upwardly inclined arm 24 is secured to one projecting end of the yoke 21, and a tripping cord 25 is secured to the arm. On the arm 20 is formed a depending ring 26 to which is secured a cord 27 to return the parts to a locked position so that the rings 17 are held by hooks 14.
The operation of my invention is as follows: S ing ropes 18 are connected with hooks 14, after passing around the load. By pulling down the cord 27 the bar 4 is rocked to throw the arm 20 into horizontal position Where it is held by the yoke 21. The weight of the load is then carried by the ends of the chains connected to the yokes 13. A pull on the trip cord 25 rocks the yoke 21 and releases the arm 20 so that the bar 4 is rocked taking up the slack of the opposite ends of slings 18 by the Weight of the chains 12 and exerting a pull on the hooks 14, to release the rings 17 as shown in Fig. 4. 7
Having thus fully described my invention, What I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. A carrier comprising a frame, a rockable bar carried by one side of the frame, means for locking the bar against rocking, means for unlocking the bar locking means, suspending means disposed around the bar, a locking member carried by the suspending means, a cooperating suspending means having one end secured to the frame and its other end connected to the locking member, and means for rocking the bar to unlock the locking member When the bar locking means is released.
2.'A carrier comprising a frame, a bar rockably disposed on the frame, a plurality of, chains disposed over the bar and connected therewith, a releasable lock secured von one end of each chain and connected to its opposite end, corresponding chains secured to the frame and having their free Gopies of this patent may be obtained for ends connected to the locks, an arm on the bar, a yoke arranged to pass over the arm and means for moving the yoke to release the arm.
3. A. carrier comprising a frame, a bar rockably disposed on the frame, a plurality of chains disposed over the bar and connected therewith, a releasable lock secured on one end of each chain and connected to its opposite end, corresponding chains secured to the frame and having their free ends connected to the locks, an arm on the bar, a bracket on the frame between the sides of which the arm is adapted to pass, a stop on the bracket in the path of movement of the arm, a yoke journaled on the bracket and arranged to engage over the arm, a lever on the yoke and a cord secured to the lever.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of tWo subscribing Witnesses.
MANUEL BOUZO.
