NFL-IRS, PHOTO-UYNQGHAPHER, WASHINGTON. D. O.
UNITED STATES PATENT. OFFICE.
AUGUST PUDIGON, OF MONKS CORNER, SOUTH CAROLINA.
IMPROVEM ENT IN SAP-COLLECTORS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 175,751, dated April 4, 1876; application filed September 16, 1875.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, A. PUDIGON, of Monks Corner, in the county of Charleston and State of South Carolina, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Sap Collectors; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawing, and to 'the letters of reference marked thereon, which forms part of this specification.
The'natnre of my invention consists in the construction and arrangement of a device for collectingturpentine or sap from trees, as will be hereinafter more fully set forth.
In order to enable others skilled in the art to which my invention appertains to make and use the same, I will now proceed to de scribe its construction and operation, referring to the annexed drawing, in which Figure 1 is a front elevation. Fig. 2 is a central vertical section of my invention, and Fig. 3 is a detail section.
A represents a part of the tree, having a groove, a, cut in it in the form shown in the drawing. B B represent the gutters for receiving the sap and conducting the same to the box. These gutters are made of metal and have metal spurs b riveted thereto, which spurs are pressed into the sappy wood or bark' and a shoulder, d, is turned upward to brace and strengthen the sides of the gutters. The gutters B B are made in V shape, and provided on each side with one or more side wings, D, enabling the gutter to go around the tree two-thirds of its circumference. In connection with these gutters I use a single box, 0, to each tree, said be): being made of wood, and
of such capacity aswill correspond with the increased running surface. The box C, with its cover, being made of wood, prevents, or at least materially lessens, the evaporation, as
