7481. Justice, P. M., [Plant, T. G.]. March 29. Treeing.-A rumber of rotatable and expansible trees are mounted upon a turret, and the trees and turret are interlocked in a manner to be described. The trees are jacked and unjacked by a single lever, Each tree is rotated on its own axis by means of a hand-wheel 95, Fig. 2, and comprises a leg-front portion 126, a detachable back 160 hinged to the front portion 126. upon a spring bracket 163, and a foot-piece. The foot-piece comprises a member 130, mounted for longitudinal movement relative to the front portion, and an interchangeable sole plate 146 arranged on an interchangeable support 143, which is socketed in a support fixed to a foot-slide 127. The member 130 carries a bridge-piece 131, and is actuated by a jacking-slide 49, which carries a projection 140 extending through the foot slide. The member 130. in its initial movement towards the leg-front portion 126, carries with it, by reason of a latch 134, the foot-slide and the sole plate. As soon as the latch 134 is depressed by engagement with the leg-front portion, the foot-slide becomes dependent on the boot for its movement. Its rear end 154 then meets an adjustable spring stop 153, and the sole plate 146 and the member 130 of the foot-piece move apart to stretch the boot to an extent depending on the adjustment of the spring 156. At the same time, a projection 181, on the underside of the jacking-slide, actuates a heelslide 177, to which is linked, through a spring connexion, a bell-crank lever 170, the free end of which slides in a guide in the heel member 160, causing the latter to pivot about the bracket 163 to expand the heel. The tree is locked, when expanded, by a latch plate 97 at its rear end engaging a notch in the jacking-slide. An upper-stretching device 188 is carried by the foot-slide. The jacking-slide of each tree is actuated by one lever 46, Fig. 1, carried by the frame and having a notch 47 with which to engage a projection 48 on each ...
