ALLAN W. GoonrnnLow, or PERDITE, SASKATCHEWAN, CANADA'.

WHIP.

Application filed May 26,

To algwlzomt 'may concern:

Be it known that ALLAN lV. GoonrnL- Low, a `citizen of the Dominion of Canada, residing` at Perdue, in the county of Battleford and Province of Saskatchewan, Canada, have invented certain new and useful improvements in Vhips, of which the following` is a specification.

The present invention relates to a. whipping apparatus adapted for connection to farm implements such as binders or the like. The principal object of which is to provide a. device of the character described whereby the driver may strike any of the desired draft animals drawing the implement conveniently while in a sitting position.

lV ith this and other objects in view, the invention consists in the construction, combination and arrangement of parts as will be hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings, and pointed out in the claims hereunto appended.

Figure lis a perspective view of a binder embodying my present invention.

Fig. 2 is a vertical section of the standard il. which a suitable whip is mounted.

Fig. l is a. vertical section of the standard base.

Fig. 4 is a fragmentary perspective view of the whip actuating arm. y

Fig. 5 is a perspective view of the bracket functioned to guide the whip actuating arm.

Referring to the drawings, like numerals designate like parts in the various drawings.

The numeral 6 indicates the frame. of the binder, 'T the double-tree, Sthe whip, 9 the whip actuating arm, 10 the'seat. As illustrated in Fig. 1, the whip is positioned on theI double-tree. although the same may be positioned on the binder as may be desired.

Referring t-o Fig. 3 the standard base is preferably stamped from sheet metal and configurated with the ridges 11 and 12, and depressions 14 and 15. This base is preferably substantially mounted on the doubletree 7.

Referring to Fig. 2 the standard consists of a tubular member '1G having semi-cycloidical base configura-ted on its lower extremity. A.' wing set screw 17 is positioned in the upper portion of the tubular member 16 and functions to rigidly hold the whip positioned therein. Pivot pins 18 and 19 are positioned on,` the tubular members 16 1921. serial No. 472,757.

as illustrated for engagement with the whip actuating arm. Hookv .2O is positioned in the lower extremity of the tubular member 16 and is connected to a retractile spring 21, the lower end of which engages with hook 22 centrally positioned in the standard base. 'I'.heustandard 16 is therefore rockably positioned on thel standard base 16 and held in position by the retraetile spring 21.

The lower end of the Whip actuating arm is constructed as indicated diagrammatically in Fig. 4. `Apertures 23 positioned in the brackets 24 which are secured to the arm 9 fit over the pivot pins 18 and 19 forming a pivoted connection. A suitable handle 25 is positioned on the upper extremity of the whip actuating arm 9. Bracket 26 is mounted on the body of the binder,'through which passes the arm 9, the said bracket being functioned to keep the same in relative position with the seat.

The driver sitting upon seat 10, desiring to strike one of the draft animals, grips the handle 25 of the. whip actuating arm 9 and pushes the same in the direction of the draft animal he desires to strike. This pushing movement tilts the whip in the desired direction and strikes the draft animal.

It is obvious that the retractile spring 21 keeps the whip in a vertical position when not in use.

From the foregoing it is thought that the construction of my invention will be clearly understood, and, therefore, a more extended explanation has been omitted.

lVhat I claim as new is:

1. In combination with a. farm implement, a. whipping apparatus consisting of a vertical standard rockably mounted on a base, a whip vertically positioned in the said standard. means for securing said whip in said standard, an actuating armfpivotally mounted on the said standard. a spring disposed in vertical alignment with the standard and connected/with the base, a guide bracket mounted on the said implement func-tioizd to guide the said actuating arm and a handle eonfigurated in the end of the actuating arm.

2. In combination with a farm implement, a whipping apparatus .consisting of a vertical standard rockably. mounted on a base, a. whip vertically positioned in the said standard, means :tor securing the Said whip in said standard, :m :wmuff arm pifpzl'ly momma! un tlm Luid mandan-L av ,fluide hrz-clim mountml un Hwszlid irmyhemmt fuuctiunvd tw gudv w Suid avuutingmun,
