PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
An Improved Collapsable Milk Barrow, Porters' or Hawkers' Barrow,
or Hand Cart.
CILARLES ROBERT WATSON, Dairyman, 28, Dovecot Street, Stockton on Tees,
do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:
The milk barrow is of the ordinary type or pattern consisting of two parrallel
soles for sides with cross bars attached to each by means of hinges or suitable
fasteners instead of being tenoned & fastened into the side soles, & each cross
bar consists of two parts attached together in the centre by means of an hinge.
The axle is not in one piece as an ordinary axle but is cut short near the bush
of each wheel & the end instead of continuing across to the other wheel is
fastned into a steel or other metal casting that supports the spring & sole of
the cart side. A loose axle either cranked or straight is affixed by being put
into or affixed to the metal casting by means of screws or suitable fasteners.
Removable stretchers are used to keep the side soles (when used as bottomless
milk barrows) from collapsing. When a bottom is to be used as in an ordinary
hand cart the bottom will be in two halves, each half affixed to a side sole by
means of hinges, all the soles both sides & ends being grooved so as to form
a rest all round for the bottom when in use..

CHARLES ROBERT WATSON, Dairyman, 28, Dovecot Street, Stockton on Tees,
do hereby declare the nature of this invention and in what manner the same
is to be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the
following statement: ---
The milk barrow is of the ordinary type or pattern, consisting of two parallel
soles for sides with cross bars attached to each by means of hinges or bolts or
suitable fasteners, instead of being tenoned, and fastened into the side soles
and each cross bar consists of two or more parts attached together by hinges
or bolts.
The axle is not in one piece as in an ordinary axle, but is cut short near the
bush of each wheel, and the end instead of continuing across to the other wheel
Pin 017

of the cart sides.
A loose axle either cranked or straight is affixed by being put into or upon
the metal casting, or fastened by means of nuts and bolts, or screws, or other
suitable fasteners, and may be flanged at the ends or grooved or otherwise, so
as to make a firm connection with the ends of the axle. Removable stretchers
are used to keep the side soles (when used as bottomless milk barrows from
collapsing.
When a bottom has to be used as in an ordinary hand cart, the bottom will
bo in two halves, each half affixed to a side sole by means of hinges, all the
soles both sides and ends being grooved so as to form a rest all round for the
bottom when in use.
On the drawing Figure 1, is an end elevation of collapsable barrow. C is
the portable axle bar in position on metal casting 1 D. EE is the handle or
lever nut to keep the portable axle bar in position on metal casting D D. F is
the cross bar, connecting the two parrallel soles or sides H H. G G is the
spring & II are the wheels.
Figure 2 is a sectional elevation.
D is the metal casting on which the springs and portable axle bar rests. G
is the spring and H the side sole and I is the wheel.
Figure 3 is a plan.
C is the portable axle bar in position. E E is the handle or lever nut. F F
is the cross bar. HH are the side soles and I I the wheels.
Figure 4 is a detail section through spring and elevation of portable axle
bar and handle at A A on Figure 3. C is the portable axle bar. Dis the metal
casting on which the spring and portable axle bar rests F is the lever nut, and
G is the spring.
Figure 5 is a detail vertical section of portable axle bar. C, is the portable
axle bar. D is the metal casting E is the handle or lever nut. G is the spring.
Figure 6 is a detail plan of Figure 4, showing portable axle bar at A A on
Figure 3. C is the portable axle bar, E is the handle or lever nut G is the
spring.
Figure 7 is a detail elevation of hinge of cross bar F F at B on Figure 1.
Figure is a detail plan of hinge at B on Figure 3.
Figure 9 is a plan of portable axle bar at A A on Figure 3 when barrow is
collapsed. C is a reduced portable axle bar for use when the barrow is collapsed
and is only used to keep the barrow steady or collapsed after collapsing, and
may be dispensed with if desired.
EE is the handle or lever nut and G is the spring.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said
invention and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what
I claim is:
-
1. A movable or loose axle, cranked or straight.
2. Mode of fixing loose axle to each metal casting or ends of axle.
