GEORGE M. HARRISON, OF ST. LOUIS, MISSOURI.
ICE-BUNKER.
1,23d,1ti2,
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented July 2st, 1917.,
Application filed November 19, 1915. Serial No. 62,354.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, Gnonon M. HARRISON, a citizen of the United States, residing at St. Louis and State of Missouri, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Ice- Bunkers; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
This invention has for its object to provide an efficient and inexpensive ice bunker especially designed for use in connection with refrigerating cars.
Another object of the invention is the pro vision of an ice bunker embodying means whereby the water pan may be quickly and conveniently removed when necessary.
With these and other objects in view, the invention consists in the novel construction, arrangement and formation of parts as will be hereinafter specifically described, claimed and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure 1 represents a fragmental front elevation of the improved ice bunker,
Fig. 2 represents a fragmental sectional view through one end of a refrigerator oar, illustrating the improved bunker applied to use, and
Fig. 3 represents a detail sectional view on the line 33 of Fig. 1.
Referring to the drawings in detail, wherein similar reference numerals designate corresponding parts throughout the several views, the numeral 5 indicates the floor of a railway refrigerator car of the usual or any preferred construction embodying the usual end wall 6, roof 7 and filling opening 8 formed in the roof to facilitate filling of the ice bunker with ice. A door or closure 9 is removably or hingedly secured to the roof 7 for closing the opening 8 and the floor 5, adjacent the end wall 7 is formed with an aperture receiving a trap 10 into which the upper extremity of a discharge pipe 11 extends.
Sectional uprights, designated generally by the numerals 12, are arranged in spaced relation adjacent the end walls 6 of the refrigerator car and are composed of two sections, the upper section being designated by the numeral 13 and the lower section by the numerals 141. The upper sections are rigidly and permanently secured in vertical position to a beam 15 secured beneath the roof 7 of the car body and are formed at their lower extremities with recesses 16 adapted to receive the reduced extensions or tongues 17 carried by the lower and relatively movable sections 14, which latter are carried by a floor beam 18, rigidly secured by bolts, or equivalent means, 19 to the floor 5 directly below and in parallel relation to the roof beam 15. A connecting plate 20 is engaged with the overlapped ends of the sections 13 and 1d and is formed with a plurality of apertures registering with the apertures formed in the ends of the sections to receive bolts 21, whereby the sections are rigidly and detachably connected.
A pan or tray 22 is supported upon the floor 5 between the uprights 12 and the adjacent end 6 of the car and is formed with an aperture registering with the trap 10, whereby the water is conducted to the pipe 11. As clearly illustrated in Fig. 2, the upper edge of the pan 22 terminates below the lower extremities of the uprights 12, thus permitting the removal of the pan 22 subsequent to disconnecting and removing the lower upright sections 14 and floor beam 18 from the upright sections 13 and floor 5, respectively.
A plurality of spaced inclined panels 30 are secured between the upper sections 13 of the uprights and are designed to accelerate the circulation of air within the refrigerator car. Guard strips 31 are also secured to the front and rear edges of the beams or uprights 12 and extend from one side of the car to the opposite side thereof for protecting the inclined panels 30.
What I claim is:
In combination, a railway car including a floor, an end wall and a roof, sectional uprights arranged in said car in spaced relation to said end wall, the upper sections of said uprights being permanently secured to the roof of said car, supporting irons arranged against the end wall and uprights,
in spaced relation above the said ice pan.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two Witnesses.
GEORGE M. HARRISON.
Witnesses:
HENRY C. ARGAST, RAYMOND Olimmlson.
means detachably Securing the adjacent extremities of the upright sections and the adjacent supporting iron together, a pan removably positioned between said end Wall and said uprights, and ice supporting bars supported by said irons and being disposed Gopies of this patent may be obtained for five cents each, by addressing the Commissioner of Patents.
