To all whom itmay concern: I
Be it known that I, HENRYG. Pn'rnnso t, a citizen of the United States, and rresident of Jewell Junction; in the county ofsHam: ilton and Stateof Iowa, have invented aficer tain' new and useful-Dumping Bed, of which thefollowing is a specification; i. u f

I ;V I ,t ;;v: More particularly it is my OlQ'JGChtOPI'Q vide a dumping bed having.itssbottomzdia vided into two parts, each pivoted along longitudinal lines betweenithe sideedgesotv theparts, and having atits; outer sidegedges apivoted side member, and to provldein eon-j nection therewith mechanism fortilting the bottom andside members to form the entire bed into a hopper of substantially ill-shape in cross section. v ,i g A further object is to" provide means for operating the dumping bed, adapted'to hold the bed rigidlyin position when .it s used forhauling; 21:" a j 1 With these and other objectsi'n views-my; invention consists 1 inthe. construction, ark" rangement and combination of ithe various parts of the device, whereby the ob eots eon; templatedare attained, as hereinafter more fully set forth, pointedout. in my claims; and illustrated in the accompanying adrawlngs', in which- .0 f Figure 1 showsaiside elevation of'a dump.- i-ng bed embodying my;inventiom :1; .-Fig.r.2' shows a vertical, transverse, secs." tional View taken on the line2--2 of Fig. 1;" and :2: ix: :5: 1 1f. .6 Fig; 3 shows an inverted: planjvieiv of:the central-parts of the dumping-bed? of In the accompanying drawings :Iihave used: the reference numeral 10 to Iiindicafte;spaced; opposite side frame memberswhichxsup ort? the main part of-the'dumplng bed. he frame members 10 are connect d 'by .a {Zp1u rality of crossbrace's or y-framemembefs .1 1.

of the bed are upwardly extending arms 29. The arms 29 have their upper ends pivoted to a longitudinally extended link 30 outside one of the frame members 12, as illustrated in Fig. 1.
Pivoted to ,the forward end of the link 30 is a link 32 which is pivoted to a lever 33. The lever 33 is pivotally mounted on the forward end of the forwardly extending frame member 10, and is provided with an ordinary movable pawl 34 adaptedlto coact with the notches of a sector 35. The member 26 of the middle bail is received in longitudinally arran d loops or keepers 3,6, as illus-' .Mountedon the frame members 12, ateach end of the machine are end members 37 which project laterally beyond the side members 22, as shown inFig. 2.

When it is desired to discharge or dump the contents of the bed, the lever 33' is grasped and shovedv forwardly, thereby swinging the arms 29 forwardly and rotatingtheportions 28 for swinging the bails forwardly underthe bottom members 15 and 16; The heaviest part of the load will be at the centerg'and will "therefore tend to force downwardly'the inner edges of the bottom members 15 and 16.
The mounting of one of the bail members 26 in the loops or guides 36 also makes the action of the lever positive in operating'the dumpingbed. VVhjen the lever is moved to position for swinging the bails forwardly, the central portions of the bottom members 15 and 16 will be forceddownwardly by the load; to their dotted line positions, as illus- It is, of course, obvious that if the bottom members should stick, the bail member 26,

The gravel will be dropped out through the center of the bed, and the parts may then be returned to their normal position, as shown in full lines in Fig. 2.
It will also be noted that it is'notonly possible to'tilt the bottom members, but that the side members are pushed upwardly to their dotted line positions shown in Fig. 2, so that-when-the' bed is in dumping position the bottom members and side members have assumed positions where they are sub-.
stantially V-shaped in cross-section, which makes a construction most efiicient for discharging thedoad. V
The beveled faces 13 are when the upper edges of the. side members provided so i 12 support the bottom members, they do not interfere with the dumpingj action of the bottom members. 7 V -Some changes 'm-aybe'made 1n the construction and arrangement of the var ous parts ofmy dumping bed without departing from the real sp1rit andpurpose of my invention, and it is'my intention-to'cover by my claims any modified forms of structure or use of mechanical equivalentswhich may bereasonably included within their scope.
