ment or elements, in a rack-provided drawing bar and toothed means for operating the same, and in means for disengaging the holding means or element from the toothed member engaged thereby, together with such other parts and members as may be necessary or desirable. in order to render the implement complete in every respect, .all as hereinafter set forth.
The primary object of my invention is to produce an implement of thecharacter described which is strong and durable, and consists of few parts, can be operated conveniently and expeditiously, This imple ment is more especially designed for use in a h'orizontal position for traction purposes, as when an automobile becomes stalled in a ditch, mud hole, or other place from which it cannot be propelled by its own power, or in a vertical position for raising a heavy object or objects, and holding the same suspended if desired.
A further object is to provide the jack with a. simple but adequate means of control for the toothed members,
Other objects and advantages will appear in the course of the following description.
I attain the objects and secure the advantages of my invention by the means illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure l is a. side elevation of a jack which embodies a practical form of my invention, and, Fig. 2, a side elevation, with parts broken away, of said jack.
Similar reference characters designate similar parts throughout the several views.
This jack may be used in either a horizontal or a vertical position, and is designed to have ropes or chains attached to opattached at opposite arms 1 42 which are the underside eat the forward end;
ing its base secured dle arms. -is provided in the pawl 38.
fthroughthe V pawl P ing said pinin 'path. I The trip v52 positev ends thereof, and the same comprises a body'3l, at one end of which is an integral hook 32; a draft or traction bar having at one end an integral hook 34,
35 which form a and providedwith teeth rack.,;:such bar being arranged to slide in said body; a gear 36 mounted on a spindle 37 carried by said body, said gear intermeshing with said rack; a pawl 38 pivoted at 39.to said body, engagement with said gear by a spring 40 ends to the body and bifurcated to provide mounted on the outer terminals of said spindle a latch 43 located in a recess 44 in said handle, and having an arm 45 that extends through a slot 46 in pawl; a handle 41 the handle; a rod 47 passing through said last-named arm, and through a lug 48 on of the. handle; a spring 49 on said rod between said latch arm and said lug; a cord 50 extending from said rod to and through a second lug 48 on the underside of the handle, and having a ring-51 and a bow spring that forms a; trip 52 for said pawl, said trip havat '53 to one of the han- A longitudinally-movable pin 54 The slip pin 54, which extends laterally 38, may be positioned either in or out of the path of the trip 52, by. pushing said pin out over the arm 42 upon? which said trip is mounted, or by the opposite direction until it is clear of the trip or out of said curves upwardly and ,rearwardly from its base. I
After suitable connections or attachments have been made with or to the hooks 32 and 34, the operation of the jack is as follows:
and normally held in The latch 43 is withdrawn from the gear 3 V 36, the handle 41 is rocked upwardly to permit said latch to be engaged with a new or fresh tooth of said gear and the latch is released for such engagement, and said handle is forced downwardly again. This action partially rotates the gear 36 and causes the bar 33 to be actuated to the left, or the body 31 to the right, or in any event the distance between the hooks 32 and 34 is decreased. At the same time the pawl 38 is rocked by the gear 36 on the pivot 39, against ortin and stead in flan es the resiliency of the spring 40, and snaps into engagement with a newly presented tooth of said gear. The gearis now held by the pawl against the force of the load, and all is in readiness for a repetition of the drawing action of the jack. Such action is repeated as many times as may be necessary. During these operations the pin 54 is in its retracted position,
release the rod, said pin is thrust into the path of the trip 52, while the handle is in elevated position and with the latch retracted. The trip 52 is now in the position represented by broken lines in Fig. 2. Next the handle is thrust downwardly, with the latch still in retracted position, until the trip contacts with the pin 5% and forces the same upwardly, and with it the pawl. The pawl is rocked upwardly far enough, by the aforesaidaction, to cause said pawl to clear the gear 36. This releases the parts and memhers holding the rod, and so releases the latter.
The body 31 may be provided with supas -55, on the normal bottom thereof.
More or less change in matters of shape, size, construction, and arrangement of some or all of the parts of my implement, may be made without departing from the nature of my invention, or exceeding the scope of what is claimed. I
What I claim as my invention, to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. The combination,
and desire in a 1ack of the class described, with a body provided with a spindle, and with attaching means for a chain or rope, a rack bar reciprocable in said body, and also provided with attaching means for a chain or'rope, said two attaching means being at relatively opposite ends of said body and bar, a gear mounted on said spindle and intermeshing with the teeth on said bar, and a pawl pivotally connected with said body. and adapted to engage said gear, said'pawl having a pin projecting therefrom, of a handle also mounted on said spindle, and equipped with a latch to engage rope,
but when it is desired to said gear, and further equipped with a trip to contact with said pin.
2. The combination, in a jack of the class described, with a body provided with a spindle, and with attaching means for a chain or a rack bar reciprocable in said body, and also provided with attaching means for a chain or rope, said two attaching means being at relatively opposite ends of said body and bar, a gear mounted on said spindle and intermeshing with the teeth on said bar, a pawl pivotally connected with said body to engage said gear, and a slip pin carried by said pawl, of a handle also mounted on said spindle, and equipped with a latch to engage said gear, and a trip mounted on said handle, and into the path of which said pin may be projected, said trip being adapted, when said pin is in the path thereof and the handle is rocked, to act on the pin and operate said pawl.
3. The combination, in a jack of the class described, with a body provided with a spindle, and with attaching means for a chain or rope, a rack bar reciprocable in said body, and also provided with attaching means for a chain or rope, said two attaching means being at relatively opposite ends of said body and bar, a gear mounted on said spindle and intermeshing with the teeth on said bar, a pawl pivotally connected with said body, and adapted to engage said gear, and a slip pin carried by said pawl, of a handle also mounted on said spindle, a springpressed latch carried by said handle toengage said gear, means also carried by the handle to retract said latch, and a trip mounted on said handle in position to con tact with said pin, when it is in the path thereof, and actuate said pawl out of enga'gement with said gear, through the medium of said pin, whensaid handle is rocked downwardly.
