PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in Removable Apparatus for Loading Waggons
or Carts.
I FREDERICK WILLIAM GOLBY, of 36 Chancery Lane, in the County of
Middlesex Patent Agent, do hereby declare the nature of this invention as com-
municated to me by Denis Jean Baptiste Sarazin of Chailly-en-Brie, in the
Republic of France, Farmer, to be as follows:-
This invention relates to apparatus for elevating loads and depositing the same
on the top of, or into waggons or carts, the said apparatus being fitted with wheels
so that it may be moved about from place to place as required.
The apparatus consists of an inclined framework capable of being adjusted in
height and carrying a rail or rails on which runs a loading car. The car is raised
by means of a chain or rope which passes over a pulley at the top of the frame and
over guide pulleys to a windlass near the bottom of the structure. The loading
car
hinged or pivotted to a small bogie at its rear, so that when drawn up to the
top, the bogie remains on the rails, and the loading car is tilted forward on the
pivot or hinge, and the load thereby discharged on to the top of, or into the waggon.
On the underside of the car is a roller or other projection which engages in a slot
or recess in the upper part of the structure whereby the car is held stationary
during its discharge.
The rear of the car is so weighted that when the load has been discharged it tilts
back into its normal position, and may be let down to the bottom of the structure
to be reloaded.
The inclined framework is preferably made of a ladder formation so that the men
may easily mount on the top of the load in the waggon when desired for the purpose
of spreading or packing the load as and when the same is deposited from the
loading car.

Improvements in Removable Apparatus for Loading Waggons

I FREDERICK WILLIAM GOLBY of 36 Chancery Lane, in the County of
Middlesex, Patent Agent, do hereby declare the nature of this invention as com-
municated to me by Denis Jean Baptiste Sarazin of Chailly en Brie, in the
Republic of France, Farmer, and in what manner the same is to be performed, to
be particularly described and ascertained in and by the following statement :-
This invention relates to apparatus for elevating loads and depositing the same
on the top of, or into waggons or carts the said apparatus being fitted with wheels
so that it may be moved about from place to place as required.
The apparatus consists of an inclined frame work capable of being adjusted in

by means of a chain or rope which passes over a pulley at the top of the frame and
over guide pulleys to a windlass near the bottom of the structure. The loading
car is hinged or pivotted to a small bogie at its rear so that when drawn up to the
top the bogie remains on the rails and the loading car is tilted forward on the pivot
or hinge and the load thereby discharged on to the top of or into the waggon. On

page_text: the underside of the car is a roller or other projection which engages in a slot or
recess in the upper part of the structure whereby the car is held stationary during
its discharge.
The rear of the car is so weighted that when the load has been discharged it tilts
back into its normal position, and may be let down to the bottom of the structure
to be reloaded.
The inclined framework is preferably made of a ladder formation so that the men
may easily mount on the top of the load in the waggon when desired for the purpose
of spreading or packing the load as and when the same is deposited from the
loading car.
In the accompanying drawings
Fig. 1 is a side elevation of the apparatus.
Fig. 2 is a rear elevation without the loading car and
Fig. 3 is a plan of the loading car alone.
The frame a rests on two wheels b and on a forward carriage c mounted on a
hand barrow d. The uprights e are united by the bars to form a ladder to permit
the men to mount the waggon. This frame is formed of flat or guttered iron firmly
joined by tie-pieces.
A windlass composed of a drum l, on which is rolled a chain i actuated by a
handle m furnished with a brake n, is situated at the lower part of the apparatus.
The chaiu passes over the pulleys k & j and is fastened to the car on which is
placed the load and which is mounted on rollers which run on the uprights e.
In winding up the chain by means of the windlass, the car charged with the load
is brought to the summit of the apparatus; arrived there, the weight of the load
causes the car to tilt up in front at the point indicated at o and the roller q runs
into the notch p placed at the upper extremity of the frame and which arrests the
further progress of the car.
The apparatus being placed beside the waggon or cart to be loaded the load will
fall from the loading car on to the top of the load in the waggon or cart over which
it may be spread if required. This position is shewn in Fig. 1.
When the load has slid on to the waggon, the back part g of the car being
heavier than the front part g', it takes up its normal position and descends to the
lower part of the apparatus the brake n serving to moderate its descent.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I
claim is :-
1. A removeable apparatus for loading waggons or carts, characterised by a frame
work mounted on wheels and forming a ladder and of a windlass acting on a chain
fastened to a car carrying the load, the said loading car being divided into two
parts, the front part being able to tilt over, under the weight of the load when this
arrives at the summit and assuming its normal position when the load has fallen;
and by the special arrangement at the summit of a notch which is intended to stop
the car all arranged and combined substantially as and for the purpose hereinbefore
described and represented in the accompanying drawings.
