Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 18
Claim 1
Independent Claim 117 words
A livestock-tipping table comprising a planar member which is positionable in a generally vertical position and which is revolvable in its entirety about a horizontal axis, a belt means having one end which is simultaneously adjustable in the horizontal and vertical directions along said table and an opposite end which is adjustable along the horizontal direction of said table, a rotatable shaft extending horizontally along said table, one end of said belt means being windable about said shaft, an opposite end of said belt means extending through said table and being connected to a buckle means, wherein said buckle means is slidably mounted along a plate means which in turn is slidably mounted relative to said table.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 117 words
A livestock-tipping table comprising a planar member which is positionable in a generally vertical position and which is revolvable in its entirety about a horizontal axis, a belt means having one end which is simultaneously adjustable in the horizontal and vertical directions along said table and an opposite end which is adjustable along the horizontal direction of said table, a rotatable shaft extending horizontally along said table, one end of said belt means being windable about said shaft, an opposite end of said belt means extending through said table and being connected to a buckle means, wherein said buckle means is slidably mounted along a plate means which in turn is slidably mounted relative to said table.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 33 words
The table of claim 1 including hinged doors at the bottom corner portions of said member and latch means for securing said doors in a common plane with the remainder of said member.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 71 words
The table of claim 1, including a series of through slots alternating with a series of strap buckles along the bottom edge of said member, a strap means including a closed loop and a straight portion extending therefrom, said loop being positioned on the front side of said member with said straight portion extending rearwardly through a said slot, said straight portion being adapted to be hooked to a said buckle.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 21 words
The table of claim 1, wherein said axis of saiD member is distally located from the boundaries of the member itself.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 32 words
The tipping table of claim 4, including a link arm extending perpendicularly and rigidly from said member and pivoted about said axis, a power means for revolving said table about said axis.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 61 words
The tipping table of claim 4 wherein said means for revolving said table comprises a fluid cylinder and a piston rod slidable axially therein between an extended and a retracted position relative to said cylinder, one end of said cylinder being pivotally mounted about a fixed pivot axis and one end of said piston rod being pivotally mounted to said table.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 19 words
The tipping table of claim 4 wherein the distance between said axis and said member is substantially 12 inches.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 41 words
The tipping table of claim 4 further including a belt means having one end which is simultaneously adjustable in the horizontal and vertical directions along said table and an opposite end which is adjustable along the horizontal direction of said table.
