April 22, 1930. w. c. JACKSON DIVIDER FOR MOWING MACHINES I Filed Jan 21,

This invention-relates t'o dividers for mow- .ing machines .and has as one of its objects to provide divider that is adaptable to divider shoes without alteration thereof. v v
Another object of the invention is to provide a divider'that may be easily and rigidly secured to the divider shoe! BE ftiitherobject of the invention is to provide a divider that is adjustable and that is to rigid in all its adjustments.
A further object of the invention is to provide a divider that is cheapto manufacture and that is highly efiicient in operation.
lVith these and other objects in view reference is now had to the accompanying drawings in which F ig. 1 is a plan view of a divider shoe;
Fig. 2 is a side elevation thereof showing one of the divider rods; v
Fig. 3 is a side elevation of a fragment of the divider shoe showing another position of the rod;
Fig. 4 is a plan view oi the shoe and rod (reduced) l 2 Fig. 5 is a side elevation of a fragmentof a divider shoe and divider board; and
Fig. 6 is a similar view to Fig. 3 showing a modified form of securing means for the divider rod.
7 .30 laving reference to the drawings like nuinerals refer to like parts throughout the several views and the numeral 1 refers to a diyiding shoe, such as are used ordinarily on mowing machines and the like, the dividing shoe consisting of a frame 2 having a lateral inclination and an extended plate 8 curved inward from the direction of travel, and adapted to carry a pivotally mounted dividing board 4 flexibly mounted thereon by means of a bolt 5, upon which is mounted a tension spring 6 wherewith to normally maintain the 7 board in continuation of the plate 3 and to -permit the rise and fall of the outer end of the board 4 during operation.
A tread 7 is'hinged to the bottom 8 of the shoe by means of a hook hinge 9 positionedat the forward end of the tread and its rearward end is adjustably supported by an angle piece 10 that is extended laterally and bent upright 59 to bring the tread in the line of travel, and
to provide means to adjustably'secure the tread in adesired position. I I For thepuipose of secu-re nent a housing 1 is formed integral withthe frameand is slotted as at 12, to receive a bolt 13, the head 56 14 of which is secured, Within the housing in the usual manner, while a nut 15 engages the bolt to secure the angle piece against the housingll in the adjusted position. I
The frame has furthera painted toe 16, with a top rib izextehchhg from the the over the top oftlie frame to terminateina shoulder 18 positioned above and slightly to the rear of the housing 11 v hehousing contains the usual sickle bar 19 and blade guide 2'0, about which is a lower rib 21. v I v The eaten-a a plate 3, as ther lashes-he'd, eel-res inward laterally and doiitaiii's ahole 22 that wa originally iriterided to receive the above mentioned bolt 5 and through this hole withotit further alteration other than he re ih vai of the said bolt 5', is inserted a red bolt Easter a purpose te be efipltllntl. 1
The dividing rod 24 consists of a single rod adapted for adjustable securement to the tended plate of the slide, and cdhipi'ises a straight extension 25 terminating rearwardly iii a lateral ehrveiureee.
Tli straight xteiisitiii eefitinues forward and terminates the ferrvardehu 27 in a slatted plate 28' formed integral with and perpehuiehiar w the red 24; and may coinprisethe alternative forms shewh in Fig; 3 and'Fig': 6, that shown iii Fig. Elbi-iig" my preferred fern; consisting ofadepending plate Q9 with the ttip edge at the time "totinmg a r te ee'aeaptee'te bear a ainst the trip rib 17, with the facets-s ag l en eggeding, threats iii lug 30, thela'tter 15. 1 adapted to restin with the or the heusi g' 11 iiiid eiiei-taih 'coi ditleiis, of securineiit, and still being. pofsitioiiediii h merrie to'perihit of adjustnieiitof the r6 1, g5 While the slot 31 the plate is elongated to receive the bolt with which the rod is cured to the extended plate "3-, and about which bolt the red maybe rotated for adjustment,
and by means of the elongated slot to rigidly brace the rod when secured with the face 29 contacting the shoulder 18.
The modified form has its plate extendec upward and its upper edge provides the face 29 wherewith to provide bracing for the rod similar to that of my preferred form.
While the slot 31 in my preferred form is shown straightit is obvious that it may be curved if desired, and while the slot shown in the modified form is curved it is also obvious that it may be straight, the arrangement of the slot being such as may best bring the face in contact with the top rib 17 when the nut 32 is tightened on the bolt 23, thus securing the rod rigidly.
In use, the dividing rod is attached securely to the dividing shoe by placing the plate against the extended plate and inserting the bolt 23 through the hole in the extendedplate and the slot 31, the nut 32 is then threadedly attached to the bolt and screwed nearly to place.
The rod is now raised to the proper position, according to the height of grain to out, and theplate is then raised until the face 29 abuts the top rib 17 when the nut is forced tight against the plate 28 and the whole is adjustably secured to the shoe.
As the mower moves over the hay or grain the dividing rod forces the cut hay away from the standing hay to provide a path for the horses on the next succeeding round.
By means of the straight extension the laterally curved portion of the rod is brought further to the rear than other dividing rods and thus is capable of handling larger and heavier hay with great eficiency the smaller and lighter hay being of relatively less importance when laying in the path of the mower.
Having thus described my invention, I claimf 1. In a divider, the combination, with a 2. In a divider, the combination with a dividing shoe having an outwardly projecting top rib, terminating in a shoulder, a projecting housing positioned beneath said rib, and an inwardly curved extended portion forming the rear end of said shoe, and adapt ed normally to receive pivotally a divider board, and having the pivotal mounting positioned rearwardly of said rib and said housing, of a dividing rod terminating at its forward end in a securing means consisting of a slotted plate formed integral with and perpendicular to said dividing rod, and positioned to engage the shoulder of said top rib, and having a lug extendedforward of said slotted plate for engagement with said housing, said shoulder and said housing formlng braces therefor, and means to pivotally secure said slotted plate to the original pivotal mounting of said extended portion of the shoe.
I In testimony whereof I afiix my signature.
WILLIAM C. JACKSON.
