SEED CORN HANGER. APPLICATION FILED OUT. 2, 191a.
Patented Apr. 21, 1914.
COLUMBIA PLANOGRAPkj cu., WASHINGTON, D. a
ITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
GEORGE. M. HUBFF, OF PEORIA, ILLINOIS, ASSIGNOR TO WALLACE D. GLIIDDEN, OF KEWA-NEE, ILLINOIS.
SEED-CORN HANGER.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE M. HURFF, a citizen of the United States, residing at Peoria, in the county of Peoria and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Seed-Corn Hang ers, of which the following is a specification.
The present invention relates to an improvement in the general type of seed corn hanger set forth in Letters Patent No. 981,269, granted to me January 10, 1911.
The invention has for its object increased strength for a given weight of metal,-aasimplifying and oheapening of construction, and greater compactness in storing and shipping as well as other advantages which will be apparent from the further description of the invention as set forth by way of illustration in the accompanying draw ings, and wherein Y Figure 1 is a perspective view of a preferred form of construction; Fig. 2 is a plan view of the blank before punching; and Fig. 3 is a top plan view partly in section on the line 33 of Fig. 1.
As distinguished from the seed corn hangers hereinbefore referred to it will be observed that instead of the impaling prongs projecting from opposite sides of a central stem, in the present case the hanger comprises a flat metal bar 11 which is punched along the vertical broken lines 12 and 13 and the substantially diagonal broken line 141 (Fig. 2). By the punching operation, and if necessary, by subsequent operations, the tongues 15 and 16 are bent in opposite directions outwardly and also at an upward inclination, the bending being along the dot and dash lines 17 and 18. By the same punching operation an aperture 19 is formed in the upper end of thebar by punching along the broken lines 20.
As a result of the punching and bending there is formed a bar having in its upper end the aperture 19 and comprising parallel spaced side members 21, 22, connccted together at intervals by integral cross members 23, each of which cross members h as integrally connected therewith and projecting therefrom the impaling prongs 15 and 16, the former projecting from the lower side of the cross member and the latter from the upper side of the crossmem- Specification of Letters Patent.

her. As the metal between the side members 21, 22 is divided upon a substantially diagonal line, the base of one prong is formed of the metal immediately adjacent the point of the other prong, thus saving metal and enabling all the metal between the side members to be utilized in forming the base, with a maximum of strength. It will be observed that each of the prongs has a supporting base of a width corresponding substantially to the space separating the side members of the bar and that the prongs both extend from lines of junction with the cross members which are in a common plane and at substantially right angles to the plane of the bar itself. That is to say, the prongs on opposite sides spring from the cross member of the bar directly opposite each other instead of side by side, in a common. plane instead of in adjacent planes. Each of the prongs having thus a wide supporting base, which in turn is supported from both sides by the side members 21 and 22, has a high degree of rigidity and when the hanger is subjected to the weight of a large number of cars of corn supported one above the other upon the prongs there is no torsional strain exerted upon the bar and no tendency to distortion. seed cofii hangers constructed according to this invention can be stored or shipped in a particularly compact mass by reason of the fact that a number of the hangers may be readily nested within each other, the series of prongs 16 of one hanger being inserted above the cross member 23 through the space between the side members 22 of another hanger, the relation of the parts being such that the side members of one hanger will lie closely adjacent to the side members of another and the number of hangers which can thus be nested as a practically solid body of metal is limited only by the space between adjacent cross members.
I claim:
1. A seed corn hanger comprising a metal bar with integral impaling prongs connected thereto on opposite sides and in a common plane at substantially right angles to the plane of the bar, substantially as described.
2. A seed corn hanger comprising a metal bar with inte ral impaling prongs connected thereto in a common plane at substantially right angles to the plane of the bar, the base Moreover of each prong having a width greater than half the width of the bar, substantially as described.
3 A seed corn hanger comprising a metal bar, consisting of parallel side members with integral impaling prongs extending from therebetween at an inclination and in a plane at substantially right angles to the plane of the bar, substantially as described.
4. A seed corn hanger comprising a metal bar consisting of parallel side members with integral impaling prongs projecting from therebetween atan upward inclination, the base of each prong having a width substantially equal to the space separating the side members, substantially as described.
5. In a seed corn hanger, a metal bar comprising spaced side members connected at intervals by cross members, and integral impaling prongs projecting from therebetween at an upward inclination from the cross members, substantially as described.
6. In a seed corn hanger, a metal bar comprising spaced side members connected at intervals by cross members, and integral impaling prongs p'rojecting at an upward inclination from the cross members, each prong having a base of a width corresponding substantially to the space between the side members, substantially as described.
7 In a seed corn hanger, a metal bar comfi ve cents Washington, D. 0.
prising parallel spaced side members con nected at intervals by cross members, the metal between the side and adjacent cross members punched out on substantially diagonal lines to provide two tongues one joined to each of the cross members and bent in opposite directions to form integral impaling prongs projecting at an upward inclination from the cross members and between the side members, substantially as described.
8. In a seed corn hanger, a metal bar comprising parallel spaced side members connected at intervals by cross members, the metal between the side and adjacent cross members punched out on substantially diagonal lines to provide two tongues one joined to each of the cross members and bent in opposite directions to form integral impaling prongs projecting at an upward inclination from the cross members and between the side members, each prong having a base of a width corresponding substan tially to the space between the side members, substantially as described.
In .testimony whereof I have hereunto signed my name in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
