(PATENTED)
[Hercules Patent Double Eye Beam Logging Bunk and Knight Patent Chock]
Can be applied to any type of Logging Truck or Flat Car. Indestructible in service. No repairs. Weight approximately 1300 lbs.
The Chock Block attachment is simple in construction, easily adjusted and quick and positive in operation.
When Chock Blocks are in position against logs and grab hook applied, the load is secure.
Steam Hammer
To unload, the grab hook is removed and the movement of the log slides chock block over end of bunk as illustrated in figure. The chock block on opposite end is readily adjusted to the position desired.
The men are never required to get on the unloading side of car. In flat car service the cost of all wooden stakes and blocks is eliminated, a saving alone in one year more than the cost of the Hercules Bunks.
Flat Cars can be unloaded in a fraction of the time, with absolutely no danger to employees, and the strain on car body reduced to a minimum, thereby increasing the life of the car.
