sH'ovELlNG-BQARVD FOR Box-WAGONS.
SPECIFICATION forming part ot" Letters Patent No. 601,010, dated March 22, 1898. Application filed November 9 1397. Serial No. 657,945. (No medal.)
To all whom it mag/concernr Beit known that I', JOHN W. BARLOW, a citizen of the United States, residing atf Quincy, in the county of Adams and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in End orShoveling Boards for BOX-Wagons; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact descrip'- tion of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, and to the letters ofreference marked thereon.
certain novel details of construction and combinations and arrangements of parts, all as will be now described, and the particular fea'- tures of novelty pointed out in the appended claim.
Referring now to the accompanying drawings, Figure l is a perspective view of the rear end of a box-wagon body, showing -the end-board thrown over the top of the body. Fig. -2 is a perspective viewplookingtoward the rear end of the body, showing the endboard in position for closing the end of the body orA constituting, in effect, an end-gate. Fig. .3 is a perspective view corresponding to Fig. 1 with the end-board in-position for unloading or dumping, and Fig. 4 is a detail perspective view illustrating the construc- -tion of one of thehangers.
an end or shovel board is provided for eitherclosing the end of the body or constituting an elongation or projection of the bottom thereof to facilitate unloading or dumping. This end-board is lettered C in the accompanying drawings, and it is preferably provided with tapering side pieces c to prevent the es cape of material from the wagon-body later-4 ally and to afford a convenient means for positioning and holding the end-board, as will presently appear. For supporting theend of the board next the wagon-body the latter is provided with rearwardly-projecting hooks '.such hangers to any ordinary wagon-body,
and longitudinal movement of the hangers may be prevented ,by inserting one of the arms e withinthe usual end-gate space or between the end-gate cleats f.
The arms e of each of the hangers are provided with a series of holes adapted for the reception of bolts G, which bolts Gcon stitute the support and connection for side links H, having their opposite ends pivotally connected to the sides of the end-board at an intermediate point. The connection between each of the links H and the end board is preferably formed by an adjustable yoke K,-
having one of its arms made in the form of a bolt k, passing down through the end-board and having a nut applied thereto'for preventing its withdrawal. The opposite arm of the yoke K is provided with a series of holes or slots forthe passage of a screw la', whereby it may be rigidly attached in its adj usted position to the sfide pieces of the end-board.
The links H are provided with eyes atone end for the passage of the yokes K, and the opposite ends are provided with long slots for the bolts G, whereby the links are free to slide longitudinally and to pivot upon said bolts.
The relativepositions of' the yokes K and hangers E are such that when the end-board is turned up intoivertical position, as illustrated in Fig. 2, the yoke will pass around the bolts G, and the links H will consequently be turned up into vertical or substantially vertical position. In order now to hold the endgate in this position, I provide near vthe eX- ICO tremity of said end-gate fixed hooks or catches L, beneath which the ends of the links may be sprung, as illustrated in said Fig. 2.
The connection between the body and endboard, it will be observed, is such that the end-board is never free from its attachment. Consequently it cannot become lost or separated from the wagon-body, and at the same time it may be fastened in Vertical position to constitute an end-gate of the wagon or in horizontal position, as in Fig. 3, when the links constitute diagonal braces for supporting it, or it may be turned up out of the way, as illustrated in Fig. l, or swung down under the wagon-body by simply lifting it out of the hooks d and allowing it to swing down into position.
By forming the connection between the links H and the body adjustable the device may be adjusted to accommodate itself to wagon-bodies of different height, and, in fact, by means of the two adjustments at opposite ends of the link the device may be adjusted so as to cause the hangers to occupy any desired angle, as well as to adapt themselves to different wagon-bodies, as just specified.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
The combination with the wagon-body A, shoveling-board C and hooks d for detachably pivoting the edge of the board and body together, of the hangers E fitting over the edge of the side-boards of the body and having the series of holes, the bolts G adapted to be secured in said holes, the adjustable yokes K secured to the edges of the board C, the links H having eyes engaging the yokes K and long slots at the opposite end through which the bolts G pass and hooks L on the outer portion of the board for confining the links and holding the board in Vertical position; substantially as described.
