Fig. 802 is our Platform Milk Can Carrier for use on our 

 solid steel track of the Double Bead pattern. The carrier 

 consists of a wooden platform braced across the bottom and 

 reinforced around the edges with angle iron. The carrier is suspended from swivel trucks the same as 

 are used with our regular litter carriers and feed carriers by means of a heavy steel frame or bail. 

 This carrier is built regularly to hold four ordinary railroad milk cans, but can be built in special sizes.

This is a convenient, inexpensive device for handling the milk cans at 

 milking time, and for transporting them from the cow barn to the dairy 

 building. The carrier can be furnished with either Standard or Emancipator gear (Emancipator gear illus- 

 trated) to operate on Louden Double Bead Steel Track. With one of these gears the cans can be lowered to 

 within a few inches of the floor and operated from one end of the building to the other. This keeps the cans 

 up out of the dirt and at the same time within easy reach of the milkers. The carrier may be operated 

 on the regular Litter or Feed Carrier tracks. It is built to handle three railroad milk cans.

switches and around curves. 



By using our special Spring End Stops with latch to catch and hold the carrier and which we furnish on 



special orders, the man in the barn can safely send thirty gallons of milk to the milk house one hundred 



feet or more away. The latch will catch and hold the carrier until unloaded. The man at the milk 



house can take charge of the milk, unlock the latch and by a little push send the carrier back to the barn.
