ABSTRACT:
An improved apparatus for upending a work piece is disclosed which achieves a greater driving torque during the early portion of the actuation thereof. The apparatus consists of a base member supporting a first and second horizontal pivot shafts which are mutually parallel and spaced from one another. A carriage member is pivotally mounted on the first shaft, having a first end of a lever arm mounted thereto and a second end located proximate to the second pivot shaft. A linear driving means has a housing with a first end proximate to the lever arm pivotally mounted on the second pivot shaft. The housing contains a linear driving member having a force transmitting end pivotally connected to the second end of the lever arm. The housing rotates about the second pivot shaft during the early portion of the actuation of the linear driving means. In this manner, a greater torque may be applied to the carriage by the linear driving means during the early portion of the actuation thereof.
