My in ention-relates.to .amew .and improved device for-flooding an am oading vehicles. Y
Oneof the objects of any nvention is t provide a simple, safe'and efficient skid de vice .for unloading ,heavy, fragile objects from trucks, such as large sheets of plateglass and the like. 1
Another object of my invention is to provide a device which will be extremely light and compact and can be readily assembled and taken apart as far as isnecessary for convenient transportation;
Other objects of my invention will be set forth in the following description and drawings which illustrate a preferred embodiment thereof, it being noted that the above statements of the objects of my invention is intended to generally illustrate the same and not to limit it in any manner.
Fig. 1 is a side view showing the device in the inoperative position and connected to the side of a truck. V
Fig. 2 is a detail view of a part of the device illustrated in Fig. 1, showing the skid in operative position.
Fig. 3 is a plan view showing the skid.
Fig. 4 is a detail View similar to Fig. 3.
Fig. 5 shows the underside of the device illustrated in Fig. 4.
Fig. 6 is a section on the line 66 of Fig. 4. eretofore it has required a large amount of labor to carefully unload large sheets of plate-glass from trucks because the article was heavy and fragile and had to be handled very carefully.
According to my invention a very smoothv V and eflicient skid device is provided whereby thereof. As shown more fully in Fig. 5, the boards 12 are secured in pairs, or 1n any other convenient number, by means of metal connecting {members 15. which are -.secured to the boards12 .by means of .rive ts-. 16. The boards Be d the cmaIiecting .anem e s a e provided with common openings 17 Qinto which uprights 1 142111343 .fit;
As shownin ,Fig. 3,a.skidrmay consist-of four boards 12 'so that the uprights 24 can be located in the opening 17 at varying distances from each other. This makes it possible tooperate the device with boxes B of different widths so that the boxes B-may be allowed to move downwardlyupon the skid without'any dangerof their tipping over on one side. Hence the only labor which is necessary is that required to cause the boxes I B to slowly descend.
As shown in Figs. 4 and 5 the hookslS are provided with curved front portions 13.
The truck T is provided'with bars connected thereto by means of hinges 21. A skid member can be placed upon theoutside of i the uprights of a truck and the skid memb er can be held between said uprights and the bars 20. \Vhen the bars 20 are turned upwardly they are held in position by means of members 23 which pass through eyes 22 connected to the undersides of the bars 20. Front bars 21 are provided which are similar inall respects to the rear bars 20 save that the front bars21" are: curved Each connected group of bars 12, which may be considered as forming a skid element;
or unit, is provided with an end metal member. 18 connected to the end board 12 by means of a rivet 19. Hence a number ofv skid units can be conveniently assembled as shown in Fig. 6, because the end board 12 of one unit can rest upon the projecting ledge member 18 of the adjacent unit.
It is obvious that the device is very simple, light and compact and can beused very conveniently.
' The boards 12 can be made of any ordinary wood because the openings 17 therein main portion of the device so that theskid,
This enables the use of wood for making the member is light, cheap and strong.
I have shown a preferred embodiment of" my invention, but it is clear that numerouschanges and omissions could be made Without departing from its spirit. a
I claim: '1. A skid member for unloading heavy,
fragile objects from trucks comprising a plurality of boards connected at their undersid'es by means of intermediate connecting members, the said boards and the said connecting members having common openings 7 into which uprightsmay be fitted at varying lateral distances from each other.
2. VA skid element including two adjacent boards, the said boards being connected to each other by an intermediate metal connecting membergthe said connecting member and the said boards having common openings, the said boards having three hook members connected to the ends thereof, the two outside hook members being respectively connected to'each of said boards, and the intermediate hook member having its shank connected to both of said boards.
Intestnnony wherof I aflix my signature.
