Description
CHRISTIAN r. nnnrstr', or DAYTON, OHIO.
IMPROVEMENT IN BRUADCAS'FSEEDERS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. Ii3h,29$, dated December 24,1872.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, CHRISTIAN F. KNEISLY, of Dayton, in the'count-y of Montgomery and State of Ohio, have invented certain Improvements in Grain-Drills, of which the following is a specification:
This invention relates to that class of machines which are denominated grain-drills; and it consists of an attachment for such inachines which is designed to convert them into broadcast-sowers, as will be more fully explained hereinafter.
Figure 1 is a sectional elevation of a seedwheel and a portion of the hopper with one hroadcast-sower attached thereto, the hinged pipe which conveys the seed to the drill-teeth when the machine is used as a drill being shown in dotted lines. Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the pan or apron which I attach to the seed-wheel when I desire to convert the machine into a broadcast-sower. Fig. 3 is a transverse section on line as .t of Fig. 1.
Corresponding letters denote corresponding parts in the several figures.
In constructing machines of this character I attach to such a seed-wheel as is shown in the drawing, or to one of any suitable formthe detachable case A of which is so constructed as to have hinged to it the pipe B, which, when the machine is used as a drill, conveys the grain to the hollow tooth thereof-a pan or distributer, O, which is so constructed that it can readily be applicdby simply removing the pipe which is shown in dotted lines in Fig. 1, and passing the bolt which forms the point upon which said pipe turns through holes formed in the distributer and through the wheel-case, which arrangement brings it in position to receive the grain from the grainwheel at its upper and narrower end, and permits it to pass down over a smooth or'corrugated and constantly increasing or widening surface to its lower end, from which it falls to the earth, over which it will be evenly distrib uted.
It will be understood that, in converting a graindrill into a broadcast-sower by the application of my improvement, one of the distributers is to be attached to each of the grainwheels, or to each of the cases thereof; and that their width at the lower end is to be such as to cause them to touch, or nearly touch, each other, in order that the grain may be evenly distributed over the entire surl'aceot' the ground over which the machine passes.
In constructing my distributers I sometimes attach to their upper a raised part, D, at about the point designated in the drawing, it being for the purpose of aiding in spreading the stream of grain as it passes down over the distributer.
These pans form a cheap and convenient method 01' converting a machine from a drill into a broadcast-sower; and it will also be observed that they enable the operator to use a portion of the machine as a drill and the other portion as a broadcast-sower, should he desire to do so, as the distributers all deliver the grain-forward of the drill-hoes.
hVhat I claim as my'invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
The combination of the detachable graincase A, having a slot or opening in its side for the purpose of allowing the grain to pass from it to the distributer, the grain-wheel revolving in said case, and the distributer O, the parts being constructed and arranged substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
CHRISTIAN F. KNEISLY.
