Specification of Letters Patent.

Application filed. February 27, 1909. Serial No. 480,801.
ments in, passenger cars of the type in which the conductor controls the admission and exit of passengers at the rear of the car.
The invention is particularly adapted to cars of the type in which the. passengers pay their fares on entering the car.
for opening or closing the egress passageway and, inv some instances, the ingress passageway.- This object I attain in the following manner, reference being had to the ,accompanying drawings, in which Figure l is-a plan view of the rear end of .a passenger car illustrating my. invention and. showing the doors closed; Fig. 2, is a view similar to Fig. 1, showing the doors trance and passageway separated by a post 6.
allowingsufilcient space for the free ingress and egress of passengers. As illustrated in The platform can be of any depthdesired,
Fig. 1, the platform is separated from the body of the car by a transverse partition C,
having three openings 0, c, c, in the present instance, formed by two. posts C, 0 The assageway c is the entrance passageway and is closed in the present instance by a double sired.
door E. The doubledoor is hinged at e, e, so that it will fold back against the car body, asgillustrated in Fig. 2, or a single hinged door, or a sliding door may be used, as de- I D is a semi-circular inclosure on he platform made up of two sections D, The inclosure extends from the partiti n C to the entrance and exit side of'the c and, as illustrated in Fig. 1, the section B s afixed sectionin the form of a partition extending '55.from; the floor of the'platform to .a point 'The object of the invention is to provide an inc'losure on the platform. for the condoctor and means readily operated by him at or near the roof and mayhave a movable sash or wicket so that the conductor, who is located within the inclosure, can collect. the fares of passengers standing on the platform outside the inclosure, while 1) is a movable section in the form of a curved doorhungto a stud F projecting from an overhead bearing on the partition 0 and on this stud is a spider having threearms d in the present instance, which are securedto the upper portion of the door D Secured to the-floor is a track f and on the door is a roller '1 adapted to the track so as to properly support the lower end of the door as it travels from the open to the closed position; the spider guiding the upper portion of the door. The track can .be located atany point desired, but preferably at the bottom of the inclosure, as illustrated in Fig. 3. The passageway c of the transverse partition 0 ma be opened or closed by a sash, as shown by otted lines, Fig. 1, if-desired. l
The conductor stands within the inclosure directly back of the opening c so that when the door D is .open, asjshown in Fig. .2, .a passenger has a clearspace to pass out of the car and off the platform., The conductor can readily. operate the door from the inner. side without stepping into the path of a passenger. This arrangement does not interfere with passengers as they board the car and the. conductor can readily collect. fares from passengersas they enter; the car body from the platform, The fares can be collected throu h a wicket d in the permanent sec-v tion 13' or through an opening closed by a sash, if desired, and the door-may also be rovided with a wicket, soithatwhenthe coor 15 open t will aline with the wicket in 'thefixed/position.
In some instances the door may be mounted on spiders at, top and bottom, said spiders being-adapted to pivots and the lower spider may be mounted under the floor of the plat form and the connection between the spider and the door may extend through a curved slot in the platform, as illustrated in Fig. 6.
In Fig. 1, it will be noticed that the inclosure-1s at one side of the platform and the doorway leading into the car is entirely independent of the inclosure.
In Fig. 4, I have shown a modification in which the inclosure'is arranged at one side of the platform,- but in this instance both sections of the inclosure are mounted on piv- 1 ots so as to be movable, forming two doors D D; the door D closing the ingress passage between the platform and the car body. The conductor in this instance stands in the space directly back of the pivot, standard, or post-C when one is used. This constructlon gives an extra seat a at one side of the car.
In Fig. 5, have shown another modification illustrating the 1nclosure l), which may be angular instead of seml-clrcular, and a double sliding door D is used, which can be:
operated by the conductor to open and close the exit passageway leading to the side of the car. The wicket in this instance, through which the fare is collected, is in the longitudinal section of the partition.
One of the main objects of the invention is to so arrange the inclosure that the conduotor can operate the door without blocking the exit passageway.
-l. The combination of a car, a platform,a partition dividing the car from the platform, an inclosure having a sliding door arranged to move toward and from the exit side of the can-said door being so arranged that the conductor can stand within the inclosure out of the path of passengers leaving the car. i
2. The combination in a passenger car, of a body portion, a platform, a transverse partition, said partition having an ingress and egress doorway, an inclosure on the platform in front of the egress doorway and adjacent to one side ofthe platform, and a sliding door mounted on the frame of the in;
closure and movable toward and ,from the side of the car, the exit opening in the parti- I center of the car to the open side of the car,
a sliding door forming half of the inclosure, the exit doorway in the partition being lessin width than the inclosure and locatednear the open side of the platform, so that the conductor standing in the space within the a sliding door, one-half of said inclosure being fixed, the other half being in the form of .a sliding door arranged to slide to and from a corner of the platform adjacentto the egress doorway, the space'between the inclosure and the rear of the platform being suflicient for the admission of passengers.
5. The combination in a passenger car, of a body portion, a platform, a transverse partition separating the platform from the body portion, three openings in the transverse partition separated by' two posts, the opening farthest from the ingress side of the platform being the ingress opening into the car, the opening nearest the ingress side of the platform being the exit opening from the car, a segmental. inclosure extending from one 'of said posts to the open side of the platform and blocking the two openings, leaving the ingress opening clear, a curved sliding door, a spider mounted at the top of pivot for said spider, and means for sup porting the lower end of the door as it is moved from the open to the closed position.
6. The combination in a passenger car, of
a body portion, a platform, an ingress and egress doorway 1n the partition, the ingress .d'oorway being farthest from the open side of the car, a curved inclosure covering the egress openlng and having "a sliding door movable toward and from the open side of the car, one section of the inclosure being permanent and having an opening through .which the conductor can receive fares as passengers enter the car.
In testimony whereof, I have signed my name to this specification, in the presence of two subscribin witnesses. I HARLES K. PICKLES. Witnesses:
