W. T. DONNELLY. TRANSFER SYSTEM. 4 FILED Nov. 12, 1920.'
IIVVENTU? MVA@ Patented Dec. 26, 1922.
NITED .STATES WILLIAM T.' DONNELLY, BROOKLYN, NEW YORK;
TRANSFER SYSTEM.
Application filed November 12, 1920. Serial No. 423,716.
ject to facilitate and expedite the transferby avoiding conflict between the transfer to and from the vessels, which operation may be carried on simultaneously; also, to provide for installation in any convenient location. Ffor example, in accordance ywith the method proposed, it is necessary merely to Vcut ina suitable slip Ior basin from a waterway, of capacity-sufficient to accom- Vmodate a plurality of barges or like -vessels, and span same with conveying 'apparatus in manner hereinafter set forth. The arrangement is such, moreover, that there will be Vno coniict in the transfer operations, the same being eiected'upon opposite sides ofthe slip or basin and with the greatest possible speed. An installation of this character is suitable, moreover, for use in both l urban and rural districts; and if' it be furtherequipped .with a power supply system, as more particularly set forth in my co-pending application, filed of even date herewith, it will be entirely independent of an local source of power.
he nature of the invention, however, will best be understood when described in connection with .the accompanying drawings, 40 -in which- Y Fig. 1 is a perspective view of my invention as embodied) in connection with the A transfer of material from-and to barges of the closed or covereditype; 'and Fig. 2 a similar view. illustrating my invention -as embodied in connection with the transfer from and to barges of the open or uncovered tyleiiiiilar characters of reference designate corresponding parts thruout the'. several Vlews. i
Referring tothe drawings, \10' designates a suitable waterway in which has been provided a sli '11 for receiving aplurality of barges. These may be of .the closed or covered type 12, illustrated in Fig; 1; or, of the open or uncovered type 13 illustrated in Fig. 2, and one or more of each type may be active simultaneously in the same slip.
However, I prefer to employbarges of the same type for a particular operation and as is set forth 'in the drawings.
In the embodiment illustrated in Fig. l, the barges 12 are located in the slip 11 and alined in manner such that common passageways 14 are provided transversely of the plurality ofbarges. In the form illustrated in Fig. 2, where open barges are employed, the position of the barges is not so material and the same may be located variously longitudinally of the slip for most convenient operation of the transfer mechanism.
In order `rto expedite the transfer from and to the barges and to avoid conflict during simultaneous, operation of transfer from and to same, there' is provided over a slip so as to span same a gantry crane or cranes 15.A `These cranes are provided with' suitable traveling heads provided with hooks 16 or buckets 17, or other suitable and well-known devices 'for handling material as may be required,A and the same are designed to travel over the entireslip and project beyond both sides thereof. In this manner, the heads may travel thru the passageways 14 of the 85 barges 12, Fig. 1, to remove a load from, for example, a far barge by means of one of the traveling heads of?, th'e crane and, simultaneously-therewith supply a load to said barge thru the -other traveling head of said crane. It is to be understood, that the material to be transferred will-always be received at one side of the slip and that to be removedf'rom a barge delivered at the other side of the slip, respectively? from andl to suitable land vehicles or conveyances 18. In this manner, there will be no ooniiict in vthe operations and the work proceeds smoothly and with the greatest expedition.
VI claim 1. lThe method of effecting a rapid trans-l fer of material between a plurality of marine vessels and land vehicles,eonsisting in pro-` viding a suitable basin to accomodate the' former, .movingover the basin. conveying apparatus spanning same, v,sinriultaneously transferring thereby material from and to said plurality of vessels, and directing land vehicles upon opposite sides of said basin to receive the material and supply same re- 110 y spectively from and to the conveying apparatus. y
2. In a system for transferring material between marine vessels and yland vehicles, the combination with' a slip adapted to receive a fleet of barges; of a gantry crane spanning said slip and having two heads arranged to move over the fleet of barges to simultaneously transfer material from and to same.
3. In a system for transferring material between marine vessels and land vehicles,
other to deliver material respectively from 4and to said crane.
4. In a system for transferring material between marine vessels and `land vehicles, the combination with a slip adapted to receive a fleet of barges; of a crane spanning said slip and having two heads adapted to move over the fleet7 land vehicles upon both sides of the slip cooperating with the movable heads to receive and deliver material respectively from and to said crane, material being removed by one head of a crane from a particular barge and supplied to said barge by the other head ofthe particular crane.
Signed this 12th day of November A. D. 1920.
