COMBINED HAY AND STOCK BACK.
Specification oi' .Letters Patent.
To all whom 'it may concern."
Be it known that I, WILLIAM C. SKIXNBR, of Rochester, in the county of Monroe and State of N ew York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in a Combined Hav and Stock Rack, which improvement fully set following specification shown in the accom anying drawings.
This invention re ates to certain new and useful improvements in combined hay and stock racks designed to be attached to an ordinarv wagon body.
It has for its objects among others to provide an improved simple attachment of this vertical posit-ion, nor when they with my improvement applied.
nature embodying standards or brackets with screw threaded slianks designed to be secured vertically at the o )posite sides of the wagon body and peculiarly constructed and adapted to hold movable arms having trunnionportions at their inner ends occupying openings in the upper expanded portions of the standards or brackets, and serving, when in vertical position, as the sides of a. stock rack for carrying small animals, such Aas calves or sheep, and when in their nearlyhorizoiital position adapting the wagon for use as a hay rack, the said arms being conneeted together upon each side of the wagon body by longitudinal bars or strips. The construction of the standards and arms is such that the latter cannot be detached from the standards when the arms are in a f lowerinost or nearly horizontal position, but the arms must be turned to an angle of substantially forty-five degrees from a perpendicular, when they can be readily obliquely upward out of the slots or openings in the expanded parts of the standards or brackets. In some instances the standards may be formed with ears or lugs bv' which they may be secured to the sides ef tliewagon body.
Other objects and advantages of the inveiitioii will hereinafter appear and the novel features thereof will be specifically defined by the appended claims.
The invention, in its )referred forni, is clearly illustrated in the accompanying drawings, which, with the numerals of reference marked thereon, form a part of this specilication, and in which Figure 1 is an end view of a wagon body I* ig. 2 is a passed l I i i a init 5 `engaging detail in side elevation with the saine fitted toserve as a stock rack. Fig. 3 is an enlarged detail in elevation of the standard and its cooperating arm. Fig. 4 is a view taken atriglit angles to Fig. 3. Fig. 5 is a detail in elevation showing the position the and l parts must assume before t ie arm can be detached from the slot or opening in its standard. Fig. 6 is a sectional detail more particularly hereinafter referred to.
Like numerals of referenceindicate like parts throughout the several views.
Patented Aug. 4, 1908.
Referring to the drawings 1 designates ,a
wagon body, of known construction, except as hereinafter specified. 2 are cross bars arranged beneath tlie bottom thereof.
As the standards and arms are all alike, a description of one thereof will suliice. As seen best in Fig. 3 the standard 3 has a screw threaded shank 4 which is designed to pass freely through an opening in one of the cross bars 2 as seen in Figs. 1 and 2, there receiving beneath said cross bar for holding the partsrelatively in the position shown. expanded as shown at G at opposite edges as seen best in Fig. l, and in each of these expanded portions there is formed an opening of peculiar shape and which serves an inipoi'tant funrtion in conjunction with the arm soon to bc described. This opening 7 has a rounded lower wall 8 from the front of which are in their i extends the upward slot 9-open at its upper end and disposed at an angle of about fortyive degrees from a perpendicular. At the inner end of the opening is a shoulder 10 at the front side of which is the inclined surface 11 substantially parallel with the lower wall of the slot 9 Aas seen clearly in Figs. 3 and-5. From this inclined surface 11 extends the vertical wall 1'2 and then the horizontal shoulder 13 the front wall of which is inclined as seen at 14 parallel with the lower wall of the inclined slot 9 as seen best in Figs. 3 and 5.
The standard is preferably formed at its The upper end of the standard isupper end with the cars or lugs 15 as seen many ofthese standards as may be found necessary may be employed upon each side of the wagon body.
A19 is an arin which may be of any suitable length and contour in cross section. At its inner end it is provided with the trunnions 20 substantially semi-circular in form as seen best in Fig. 5, and of a thickness to just pass through the slot 9 between the inclined surfaces l1 and 14 and the inclined front wall of said slot when the arm is turned in the proper relation, which is that indicated in Fig. 5. The web 21 gives strength to the arm and serves to form a bearing for the trunnions and to take a portion of the strain thereon when in use. As many of these arms as may be found necessary are employed for the one' wagon body and those on each side are connected by the longitudinal bars or strips 22 as seen in Figs. 1 and 2. i
In use, when the bars or arms 19 are in the position in which they are seen in Fie. 2, and in Fig. 1 in dotted lines they, with their 1011- gitudinal strips, constitute the sides of a stock rack, and when in this position they cannot be removed from their engagement with the standards owing to the fact that their trunnions engage the vert-ical wall 12 and the horizontal shoulder 13 as seen best in Fig. 6, and when the said arms are in their nearly horizontal position as seen in Fig. 3 by full lines and in Fig. 1 by full lines the arms cannot be disengaged from the standards because the trunnions rest in the curved portions of the openings in the expanded portions of the standards and their inner upper surfaces engage the horizontal shoulder 1() as seen by full lines in Fig. 3:
In order to take the strain from the shoulders 10 when the arms are in their horizontal position I provide the standard with an abutment or the like 23 between the Side portions '6 at the upper end as seen in Fig. 6 and against the under side of which the upper surface of the flat or horizontal portion 24 of the arm engages to the rear of its trunnion. This further tends to prevent disengagement of the arm from the standard until tlie former has been brought into the oblique position in which it is seen in Fig. 5.
The rack may be held in its vertical position in any suitable manner, as for example by suitable means as the hooks 25 on the end gate 2G.
What is claimed as new is 1. A standard for the )urpose described having a screw-threaded dhank at its lower end, and at its upper end an extended part at its opposite edges with an opening in each extended part, each o )emng having a rounded bottom ith a slioulder extending over the rear upper end of each rounded bottom with a )arallel-sided inclined slot leading upward from each openinv'.
