PHILIP IMIG, OF MINIER, ILLINOIS.
DUMPING APPARATUS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 475,565, dated May 24, 1892.
Application filed February 11, 1892. Serial No. 421,113. (No model.)
To all whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, PHILIP IMIG, of Minier, in the county of Tazewell and State of Illinois, have invented a new and Improved Dumping Apparatus, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
My invention relates to improvements in dumping apparatus, and more especially to that variety of dumping apparatus which is adapted for use in unloading ear-corn or other grain into a crib.
The object of my invention is to produce an extremely cheap and convenient apparatus of this kind which maybe applied to any ordinary grain-crib and by means of which a farmer may unhitch his team, run his grainwagon over the crib, and quickly dump the load into any desired part of the crib.
To'this end my invention consists in certain features of construction and combinations of parts, which will be hereinafter described and claimed.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, formingapart of this specification, in which similar figures of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the views.
Figure 1 is aside elevation of the dumping apparatus, showing a wagon in position to dump its load. Fig. 2 is a detail side elevation of the inclined movable platform adapted for use upon the wagon-track. Fig. 3 is a plan view of the same. Fig. 4 is a detail side elevation of the chute used in connection with the apparatus; and Fig. 5 is a plan of the same.
In carrying out myinvention track-rails are extended above a crib where the load is to be dumped and the rails are flat, so that an ordinary wagon-Wheel may run upon them, and they have vertical flanges 11 on the inside to prevent the wheels from running ofi the track. The rails are supported on trusses 12 or upon any suitable support which will hold them at the right height. At one end of the track it is inclined, as shown at 13 in Fig. 1, so that a wagon may be run up easily on it.
A movable inclined platform 14 is adapted to be mounted upon the track, so that a wagon may be run upon the platform and placed at an inclination to the track so that its load will easily run out, and this platform combox.
prises the uprights 15 at its highest ends, the cross-pieces 16 and 16, arranged near its ends, the longitudinal side braces 17, which are secured to the uprights and to the crosspieces, and the inclined rails made up of the flat portions 10 and the inside flanges 11. These rails and flanges are spaced so as to form continuations of the track-rails and flanges 10 and 11, and the uprights 15 are at such distances apart that they will rest upon the main track rails 10. The platform has also a brace 18, secured to the cross-pieces l6 and 16, said brace being arranged centrally between the rails, as shown in Fig. 3. The lower ends of the rails 1O are cut off at an angle, as shown in Fig. 2, so that they will rest solidly upon the track-rails 10, and the flanges 11 are cut off at the same angle, but a little higher up, as shown at 11 in Fig. 2, so that the flanges will rest snugly upon the flanges 11 of the track-rails.
The track-rails 10 and also the inclined rails 1O are spaced so that the wheels of a common farm-wagon 19 will run upon them. When the wagon is to be dumped, a chute 20 is used, which chute consists of two similar and oppositely-inclined parts 21, which are adapted to extend on each side of the track, the chute having a continuous flange 22 on one side which serves as a guide for the grain or corn and having flanges 23 on the opposite side, these flanges being broken away in the middle, as shown at 24, so that the chute may fit nicely beneath the lower end of the wagon- On the under side of the chute are braces 25, which strengthen the chute and which also enable it to rest firmly upon the track-rails, the braces being of such length and the opposite sides of the chute extending at such an angle that when placed upon the track the sides of the chute will engage the rails and hold it firmly in place.
When a load is to be dumped, the movable inclined platform is placed upon the trackrails at a point where the load is to be dumped. The wagon is run upon the track and upon the inclined platform, which may be done by means of ropes and pulleys or by any suitable mechanism, a block 26 is placed behind the rear wagon-wheels so as to hold the wagon in place, the chute 20 is adjusted behind the wagon so as to be beneath the boxand so that the opposite sides 21 will project from opposite sides of the track, the end portion of the wagon is raised, and the ear-corn or grain in the wagon-box will then run out upon the chute and be delivered to opposite sides of the track. The crib may be provided with bins arranged on opposite sides of the track,
and by means of the platform and chute the ear-corn or other grain may be delivered into the exact part of the crib desired.
It will be understood that the track may be built upon acrib so as to form a part thereof, and the track, the inclined platform, and the chute may be very cheaply constructed.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patentas described.
I PHILIP IMIG. Witnesses:
