Air-hoist. AIR-HOIST. Fi<,. 1 shows a pneumatic hoist that has recently been introduced byPedrick & Ayer, of Phihidelphia, as a substitute for the commonly used chain hoists andblocks. The cylinder is made of extra strong wrought-iron pipe, whichis carefully reamed out; to the upper head is fastened an ordinary pipe-cap, to which there is attached a hook by which the hoists can be readilyhung to the overhead trolley, and, if desired, the hoist can be transferredto different parts of the shop. The lower head is made of two of which is screwed to the end of the cylinder and has a lug to re-ceive a screw-end of the valve which supplies the air for lifting. Bythis construction the piston can not travel below the air-opening, whichwould interfere with the proper operation of the hoist. To this lowerring
