C. W. EVINGTON.
I, CHARLES WILLIAM EVINGTON; Town Hall, Hull, Chief Sanitary Inspector,
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:-
This invention refers especially to carts employed for conveying liquid or semi-
liquid matter, but is also applicable to the removal of solids. It may be used open
or covered.
My improved tip cart or vehicle consists of a wood, steel or iron watertight body
fixed on two wheels, without removable end doors or hatches and having behind a
circular, curved, or sloping bottom end or back.
My improved cart or vehicle when tipped discharges the contents of the cart or
vehicle without having to take off the usual end door or hatches, and without digging
out or baling out the contents.
It is watertight and retains its contents until tipped and is replaced in the usual
way for loading, and fastened with the joggle pin on the shafts or in any other
suitable way.
The cart or vehicle is similar to an ordinary cart or vehicle as regards.its shafts,
wheels or axles, the improvement is in the circular, curved, or sloping bottom end
or back made solid with the body of the cart or vehicle so that it is watertight
when loaded, and discharges the contents in an easy manner without hand labour.
I will now describe the invention with reference to the accompanying drawings
in which

cart is fitted with the usual shafts which are hinged at e to a blocks connected
to the cart and which move about the axle h as centre when it is required to tip

Fig. 4 is a sectional elevation of the cart a' in the tipped position.
'This
To prevent the cart tipping up inadvertently an ordinary joggle pin d is used.
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:—
In a cart or vehicle with or without a cover, the construction of the body thereof
in one piece, that is to say without a loose back piece, and of a special pattern or
shape, that is to say with the back curved or slanting outward and upward and with
the sides prolonged to correspond, as herein described and set forth."
