IMPROVEMENT IN FLOWS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 154,315, dated August 25, 1874; application filed May 16, 1874.
' .To all whom it may concern:
top View of the same; Fig. 3, a vertical section thereof, in a plane indicated by the line 00 m, Fig. 1. i
Like letters designate corresponding parts in all of the figures.
The nature of my invention consists in the employment of a wheel, disk, or short cylinder, A, attached to the beam B of a shovel- ,plow, or other plow of its class, arranged in combination with the standard (3, having a hoop form, and surrounding the periphery of the same, and the handles-D D,in such a manner that the angle of the standard and the height of the handles-are adjusted by means thereof in a-veryperfect and convenient manner, and great strength and lightness. of construction and durability in operation are efl'ected thereby, and the weight. of the plow is located just where it is required or is most desirable. Also, the construction of the plow is such that no wood is used where it is liable to split from bolts passing through at places subject to much strain. The beam B of the plow is made of wroughtiron, split and parted vertically, except a small portion of the forward end and at the rear end. The wheel A is located in this opening, near the rear end thereof, and is secured therein by a bolt, to, through its center, answering also as a pivot around which the wheel is adjusted, and by bolts 12 12, near its periphery, through it and the beam, serving also to adjust the angle thereof, if desired, though I do not ordinarily propose to adjust either the standard 0 or handles D D thereby. The
standard (3, bearing the shovel or point B, is
made of a strap of iron, bent in the middle so as to fit closely around the periphery of the wheel A, like the tire of a carriage-wheel, andits ends are bolted to an intermediate block, 0, of wood, as shown, the connecting bolt or bolts serving also the purpose of attaching the point to the standard. The circular part of the strap can move around the periphery of the wheel A, so as to adjust the angle and position of the standard, audit is secured to the wheel to hold the standard at the required angle by a bolt, 61, passing through it and one of a series of holes, f f, extending radially through the rim of the wheel, as shown in Figs. 1 and 3. The handles D D are attached to the handleeuprights G G, which, at their lower ends, are secured to the beam A by the same belt a that passes through the center of the adjusting-wheel A, so. that their angle of inclination can be adjusted concentrically with the wheel, and these uprights 'are secured at the angle required by a bolt, h,
passing through them and through one of a series of adjusting-holes, it, extending laterally across the rim of the wheel, as shown in Fig. 1. Thus the handles are adjusted to any height required. The forward ends of the handles have to be varied in position at every adjustment of their height by the means above specified. This is effected by the use of a wooden block, I, bolted between the sides of the plow-beam, and provided with a series of V adjusting-holes, m m, through one of which the bolt 1), which attaches the ends of the handles thereto, extends.
The adjusting-wheel A may be made of cast-iron, and it is therefore cheap of construction. A
What I claim as my invention, and desire and arranged as described, with the hoopshaped plow-standard 0, adjustable around the periphery of the same, substantially as and for the purpose herein specified.
Specification signed by me this 1st day of April, 187 4. l
