Scythe. v Patented March 25, .1856.
UNITED STATES PATENT EErcE.
THOMAS 0. BALL, OF WALPOLE, NEW HAMPSHIRE, ASSIGN OR. TO NATHANL. LAMSON, ()F SHELBUBNE, MASSACHUSETTS.
IMPROVEMENT IN SCYTHE-FASTENINGS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. l1,543, dated March 25, 1856.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, THOMAS 0. BALL, of Walpole, in the county of Cheshire and State of New Hampshire, have invented a new and Improved Scythe-Fastening; and I do hereby declare the following to beafull and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon.
The nature of my invention consists in providing scythe-snaths, with an elliptical cylinder operated by a ring-lever, for the purpose of securing the scythe (with .the assistance of a ring) firmly upon and to the snath.
In the accompanying drawings, A represents a portion of a snath; B, a plate of iron or other suitable metal firmly secured upon the spotting or face of the snath; O, a ring surrounding the snath and leaving sufficient space between the inner surface of said ring and the plate B to receive the shank S of the scythe.
D is a ring-lever, whose arms connect with the ends of the elliptical cylinder E, forming one entire piece of iron or other suitable metal, as shown in Figure'3, said cylinder being of sufficient length to extend fully across the plate B, in the position shown in Figstl and 2.
At 12 the end of the plate B turns upward, and in it are formed notches to'receive the point of the shank and enable the operator to cause the point of the scythe to hang at any desired position.
In order to use this improved fastening, the shank S is inserted between the plate B and the ring 0, entering the point of said" shank upon the notches b, then placing the cylinder E between the shank S and the plate B,
as shown in Figs. 1 and-2, with the ring-leverv inner surface of the ring 0, and thus by said pressure firmly securing the shank, and consequently the scythe, upon the snath.
What Iclaim as myinvention, and desire to I secure by Letters Patent, is-
The cylinder E, constructed, arranged, and operating substantially as set forth.
THOS. 0. BALL.
