ATTACHMENT FOR CORN DRILLS OR PLANTERS.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Sept. 19, 1911.
Application filed July 10, 1909. Serial No. 507,221.
' To all whom it may concern:
Noble and State of Indiana, have invented a new and useful Attachment for Corn Drills or Planters, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvements in attachments for corn drill or planter shoes by which a worn out shoe may be provided with a new sole, thereby saving the expense of equipping the drill or planter with a new shoe. Its object is to provide a cheap and efficient device which may be easily attached to the worn out shoe of the drill or planter and which shall open the ground and soil about the tube from which drops the grain in such manner that the grain will be effectively covered by the drill itself without the use'of coverer.
My invention consists of the novel features of construction and arrangement hereinafter described and illustrated in the drawings, in which- Figure 1 is a side view of my invention applied to the shoe of a drill or planter and Fig. 2, a top view of my invention removed from the shoe.
Referring to the drawings, 1 is the worn out shoe of a drill or furrow opener, the dotted line 2 indicating the lower edge of the worn shoe; 3 is the usual grain tube which is mounted upon the rear of the shoe. 1
The shoe in the condition shown in Fig. 1 is useless since its cutting edge is worn beyond its effective point. Consequently the shoe must be discarded or provided with a new keel or sole.
My improvement comprises two plates 4 4:, the upper portions of which are laterally expanded to slip over the lower portion of shoe 1 a suitable distance. The lower portions of the plates are brought together and fastened by rivets d e, and the bottom edges of the same are somewhat sharpened to form a cutting edge, the forward portion of the lower edge being curved upwardly to correspond with the curvature of the shoe. The upper portions of the plates are secured to the shoe by rivets a, b, 0. The rear portion 7 of each plate 4L is cut away on its lower edge at S, the cut commencing a short distance in advance of the grain tube discharge 3, and extends rearwardly to the end of the plates, the portions 7 7 being also expanded outwardly from approximately the commeiwement of the cut out portion to the rear end, so as to pass around and by the grain tube 3 and afford means for effectively covering up the grain which drops from the tube.
I am aware that I am not the first inventor of an attachment for shoes of the type described, but I believe I am the first to provide an attachment which will accomplish all the objects above set forth.
Vhat I claim is:
The combination with a planter shoe having the lower rear edges of its side portions spaced apart, of a combined renewable sole and heel comprising plates of like pattern and dimensions integrally joined together laterally at their lower portions and spaced apart at their upper portions to receive the lower portions of the sides of the shoe, said plates having intermediate inclined portions which form rests for the lower edges of the shoe, the lower forward edges of the plates for approximately two thirds of their length conforming to the curvature of the lower forward edge portion of the shoe, the plates having upper rear extensions equally spaced apart and terminating near the rear portion of the shoe and extending a slight distance below the lower edge of the shoe to provide heels adapted to spread the sides of a furrow to permit the grain readily to be received therein.
