Description
NITEDSTATES PATENT OFFICE.
JOHN rnLLs MANNY, OF ROOKFORD, ILLINOIS.
IMPROVEMENT IN HARVESTERS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent N0. 112,361, dated March 7, 1871.
34,703, March 25., 1862.
In the accompanying drawing, Figure l is a plan view of my improved machine; and Fig. 2, `an elevation of the gearing side of the same,
w with the driving-wheel showniu dotted lines.
`The object of the invention herein claimed is to enable the machine to conform freely to l undulations of the ground, and also to enable the driver simultaneously to rock the fingerbeam and to lift it parallel with the ground.
In this instance, a driving-wheel, A, is shown as arranged outside the frame and xed on a ,y shaft, a, turning in a long bearing or pipe-box,
b, fixed on a triangular frame, B,which carries suitable gearing. The box b forms trun- 11ions,on which a bracket, c, turns freely. The tongue Gis rmly secured to this bracket, and
is free to vibrate up and down around the box b. `A seat, D, for the driver is pivoted to arms E', and can be adjusted laterally by being `made to slide on` its forward pivot, d, and be held by a set-screw, or it may be adjusted laterally by a slot and set-screw.
j The front arm, El, is pivoted at e to a standard, E2, secured to the pipe-box b, and can be inclined backward or forward and held in the position desired by a slot, el, and a set-screw.
` The rear arm, E, is pivoted at c2 to the tongue.
By this mode of construction the drivers seat is rocked backward and forward as the finger-beam is raisedjor lowered, being connected rigidly with the gear-frame B through the box b.
A finger-beam, F, has lugs F2 FI projecting in front of its heel end, and pivoted to the.
rear end of the gear-frame by joints ff. A
caster-wheel, H,'supports the divider 'end of the finger-beam. A link, K, is pivoted at k to an arm forming part of the lug F. The other end of this link is pivoted at l to a lifting-lever, L, pivoted at m to asector-rack, M, on the tongue. A cord, a, connects this lever with the standard which` supports the front arm of the drivers seat. Y
In the operation of this device, the cutting apparatus may be held at a uniform height by a spring-detent on the lever L taking into the notches of the rack M, or by releasing this detent the cutting apparatus can freely conform to undulations of the ground.
To tilt and lift the cutting apparatus, the driver moves the lever L backward, thus both pulling the drivers seat forward by the cord 'n and lifting the gear-frame through the standard and pipe-box, but lifting the rear' end of the gear-frame by the thrust of the link K.
With this device, when the horses are removed from the machine and the lever L moved forward, the link allows the tongue to drop upon the ground.
My machine is, of course, to be used with all the appliances of a fully-organized mowingmachine, which are too well known to require description.
The drivers seat might be iixed on the tongue, and yet the lifting devices would still operate well; but I prefer the construction I have shown.
I claim as my invention- 1. The combination of the driving-wheel,
tongue, gear-frame, movable drivers seat,Y
hinged finger-beam, grain-wheel, the link K, and the lever L in front of the axle, all these parts being constructed for joint operation, as set forth. v
2. The combination ofthe tongue hinged to the main axle, the gear-frame vbratin g on Isaid axle, the finger-beam hinged to the gearframe, the grain-wheel, the lifting-lever on the tongue, and the link-rod K, connecting the lever with a post on the finger-beam and crossing the joints of the tongue, the gear-frame, and the finger-beam, all these members being constructed and operating in combination substantially as described. j
In testimony whereof I have hereunto subscribed my name.
' JOHN P. MANNY.
