HERMAN H. HINKEN, OFVWINNER, SOUTH DAKOTA.
HOG QILER.
Application filed December 10, 1924. Serial No. 755,012.
To all 107mm t mag/ concern:
Be it lrnown that 1,'HnaMAN H. Hinnnn,
a citizen of the VUnited States, and resident" of Winner, in the county of rifripp and State of South Dakota, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Hog Oilers, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvements in devices for depositing aA liquid on hogs or other small animals to cause the extermination of insects and vermin which infest the animals, and it consists in the combinations, constructions and arrangements 'herein describedand claimed. y
An object of the invention is the provision of a simple, reliable and efficient oiler which includes a freely swingable closure for gateway and is adapted to be actuated when the closure is swung by the animal as it pushes through the gateway to cause the discharge of oil onto the animal.
A further object of the invention is the provision of a device of the character de scribed which is economical in operation in that only a definite quantity of oil will be discharged each time the closure is swung from closed position, whereby oil will not bewasted should the closure be held open for an unusual length of time. f
A further object of the invention is the provision of a device of the character de scribed which affords facilities for distributing the liquid which is discharged from the source of supply when the closure is swung open over a relatively great area so that the discharge oil will be widely distributed over the body of the animal passing underneath the closure. Y
Other objects and advantages will be `ap parent from the following description, in which- Figure l is a perspective viewshowing a hog` oilingl device comprising the invention in position for use,
Figure 2 is a vertical section through the structure exhibited in Figure l, showing also in dotted lines the closure open and in position to cause discharge of liquid from the liquid container which is comprised in the device. In carrying out the invention, l make use of a Vsubstantially vertical rectangular frame l whichmay form a. part of a fence or like enclosure as shown in Figure 1. The frame defines an opening through which hogs or like animals may pass. A normally vertical swinging closure or gate is mounted v1n the frame l for controlling the passage of animals through the opening of the frame or gateway. The closure comprises an up per section 2 which isswingingly supported on the side members of the frame as by means of a horizontal rod 3 which extends through the upper portion of the section 2 and has the opposite end portions thereof extended beyond the opposite walls of the upper sect-ion 2 of the closure for engagement with aligned sockets in the inner faces of the upper portions of the side members of the frame 1. y
The closure comprises a vlower section which is shown as being a sheet of suitable material, such as metal, of less thickness than the top section 2. The sheet 3 has vertical grooves as indicated at l in each of the opposite faces thereof. The grooves it extend from the upper end tothe lower end of the-sheet 8. Thus, t-he sheet 3 may be a corrugated sheet arranged with the corrugations thereof vertical, whereby the vertical grooves l will be defined in each of the opposite faces of the section 3. The section 3 is disposed with the upper end thereof in contiguous relation to the lower end of the section 2 in a plane which is located approximately midway between the planes of the opposite faces of the sec tion 2. The section 3 may be retained in this position in respect tothe section 2 in4 any suitable knownjmanner, preferably by having vthe vertical edOe portions of the section 3 which are rigid with the section 2 and may beintegral prolongations of the side edge portions of the scction2. The arms 5 extend to the lower end of the section 3 and serve to stiften and brace the section 3 against distortion or warping so that the section 3 may be made of relatively light gauge material. y
The upper section 2 has a horizontally elongated liquid outlet chamber'6 provided therein. The chamber 6 may be a passage which extends in the section 2 between the opposite faces of the section 2 and which terminates at its ends short of but adjacent to the side walls of the section 2. The inlet of the chamber 6 is an inclined passage 7 which opens through one face of the Lipper section 2 of the closure. A plurality of horizontally spaced vertical discharge passages 8 are formed in the section 2 below secured to a pair of pendant arms 5 the chamber G and open at their upper ends through the bottom of the chamber 6 at lower ends through the lower ends of the sections 2 in communication with grooves 11 in opposite faces of the lower section 3 of the closure.
A short shaft 9 has an end portion thereof secured in the top member of the frame 1 and extends laterally of the same side of the section 2 as that which is provided with the inlet opening 7 and above the level of the latter. A container `for liquid is indicated at 10 and is mounted on the short shaft 9 to swing about the axis of the shafts. rl`he container 10 may have an upstanding lug 11 on the normally upper end thereof provided with a transverse opening through which the shaft 9 extends. rf'he normall T lower end of the container 10 is provided with an opening in which is secured the extremity of the shorter arm of a substantially U-shaped section 12 of a tubular conduit, the section 12 being rigid and having a relatively long arm extending upwardly alongside of the container nearly to the level of the upper end thereof and being connected at its upper end to a flexible section 18 of the tubular conduit, the other end of the flexible section 13 of the tubular conduit being secured in the outer end por` tion of the inlet opening 7. The container also has an operating arm 14 secured thereto. The arm 14 has an opening alined with the opening in the lug 11 and through which the shaft 9 extends. The container 10 is mounted on the shaft 9 so that the arm 14 will extend upwardly from the shaft when the container is disposed on the shaft to depend downwardly therefrom. A cable 15 is secured at one end to the end of the arm 14 and has the opposite end portion thereof extended about the periphery of a pulley 16 which is supported on a bracket 17 that is secured to a side member of the frame 1, the last named end portion of the cable being attached to an eye 18 which is carried by one of the arms 5 of the closure.
From the foregoing description of the various parts of the device, the operation thereof may be readily understood. The closure normally is held in vertical position and in the plane of the frame 1 by gravity and terminates at its lower end atan appreciable distance above the bottom member of the frame so that a space is left in the frame at the bottom of the closure. Live stock, such as hogs, sheep and like animals will attempt to pass through the gateway beneath the closure and will push the latter from vertical and closed position as indicated by the full lines in Figure 2 to inclined and open position as indicated by the dotted lines in Figure 2. This 1novement of the swinging closure will cause a pull to be exerted on the cable 13 and the arm 1st will be swung downwardly, thus causing rocking and uptilting of the container 10. rEhe shorter arm of the rigid tubular section of the delivery conduit is in open communication with the interior of the container 10 through the normally lower end or bottom of the container and therefore the rigid section of the tubular delivery conduit will be filled to the level of the liquid within the container 10 so long 7 as the closure is in vertical and closed position. rllhe uptilting of the container 10 will cause the bent portion of the rigid section of the tubular delivery conduit to be swung upwardly while the swinging of l* the closure from closed to open position will tend to lower the flexible section 13 of the delivery conduit so that the bent portion of the rigid section of the delivery conduit will be disposed above the level of the flexible section of the delivery conduit when a closure has been swung a distance from vertical position sufficient to permit animals, such as hogs, to pass through the gateway and the liquid within the rigid section of the delivery conduit will pass therefrom through the flexible section 13 and the inlet passage 7 into the distributor chamber G and thence through the discharge passages 8 onto the lower section 3 of the closure. The liquidv discharged onto the section 3 will flow downwardly in the grooves d onto the animal which is passing through the gateway in contact with the lower end of the section 3 which thus constitutes a liquid distributor and applicator, as well as being the lower section of the closure.
1t thus will be apparent that animals passing through the frame 1 from either of opposite sides thereof and swinging the closure from vertical to inclined position during the act of passing through the frame 1 will have liquid from the distributor section 3 deposited thereon so long as there is liquid in the container 10 and that waste of liquid from the container will be pre vented when the closure is held in inclined and open position for any considerable time.
l claim 1. A device of the character described comprising au upright open frame, a gate mounted in the frame and comprising an upper section swingingly supported about a horizontal axis extending through the upper portions of the side members of the frame and a lower section disposed in the plane of the upper section and substantially rigid with the upper section. said lower section having vertical `grooves in opposite faces l thereof'extending from the upper end of the section to the lower end thereof, said upper section having a distributor chamber provided with discharge passages for discharging liquid onto opposite faces of the lower section of the gate at the upper end of said lower section, and means actuated by the swinging of the gate from the plane of the frame to deliver liquid to said distributor chamber.
2. A device of the character described comprising an upright open frame7 a gate supported in the frame to swing to and from position in the plane of the frame, a container for liquid supported at the normally upper end thereof at the upper end of the frame to swing about a horizontal axis, a delivery conduit comprising a rigid tubular section in communication at the normally l lower end thereof with the interior of the container at the normally lower end oi' the latter, said rigid tubular section extending upwardly above the normal level of the liquid within the container and a flexible tubular section comprised in Vsaid conduit and connected at one end to the normally upper end of the rigid tubular section and attached at its otherv end to said swinging closure at a level lower than the level of the upper end of the rigid section of the conduit when said closure is disposed in the plane of said frame, and means operable by the swinging of the closure from the plane of said trame to tilt said container so that the normally lower end of the rigid section of the discharge conduit will be swung to a position above the level of the normally upper end oi' the rigid section of the delivery conduit, whereby liquid will flow from the rigid section of the delivery conduit through the flexible section of said delivery conduit onto said closure.
