CHICKEN ROOS T Filed May 7. 1929 f F u 2 0 77 Z5 6 w h 5 Z2 Z4 Z4 ZZ i7? 7. 7 7 7 7 7137 7 L L .5 75 WITNESSES IZ Zen/ 12512 (5Z2 ATTORNEYS Patented May 27, 1930 UNITED STATES HENRY FINTEL, OF HARDY, NEBRASKA CHICKEN ROOST Application filed May 7,
This invention relates to a chicken roost which may be hung up or set down on the floor of a chicken or brooder house.
The principal objectof the invention is the provision of a chicken roost embodying improvements rendering it proof against lice, mites or other insects, and durable and rugged in construction.
With the foregoing and other objects in view the invention resides in the particular construction and relative disposition of the parts hereinafter fully described and illustrated in the accompanying drawing, in which Figure 1 is a plan View of a roost constructed in accordance with the invention.
Fig. 2 is a side view of the roost.
Fig. 3 is an enlarged fragmentary sectional View, the section being taken on the line 33 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 4 is an enlarged fragmentary sectional view, the section being taken on the line 4-4 of Fig. 1.
Referring now more particularly to the 35 several views of the drawing, it will be apparent that the roost includes a pair of galvanized metal channel elements 10 which constitute troughs closed at each end connected in spaced relationship by cross bars 11 which constitute roost elements also arranged in spaced relationship. The cross bars 11 are connected with the elements 10 by a member 12 of wood arranged inside of each of the elements 10, and held therein in any suitable manner, together with bolt elements 13 a pair of which are fastened as at 14 to the opposite ends of each cross bar 11, and also fastened as at 15 to the members 12 respectively. A channel element 16 of galvanized metal is associated with each of the elements 10, is slightly longer than the element 10 and constitutes a cover therefor. Each element 16 is secured in position by upright bolts 17 on the related member 12, there being nuts 18 on each bolt 17 in clamping engagement with the element 16. Each element 16 has holes 19 through which the bolts 13 extend. Each member 12 has upstanding hooks 20 respectively on the opposite ends at thereof each of which projects through a 1929. Serial N0. 361,104.
In accordance with another feature of the invention, the elements or troughs 10 are filled with suitable liquid or powder 23 obnoxious to lice, mites or other insects. In this connection it is to be observed that the member 12 in each element 10, is cross sectionally smaller than the element 10 in order that a considerable amount of liquid or powder maybe placed in the element 10.
In accordance with another feature of the invention, obstructors or arches 24 of galvanize'd metal are placed respectively over each of the bolts 13, and are secured as at 25 to the related cross bar 11. The obstructors 24 serve for the purpose of preventing the chickens from roosting directly over the cover elements 16, to keep said cover elements 16 clean.
From the foregoing it will be apparent that there has been described a roost which is proof against lice, mites or other insects, due to the fact that during the day when the chickens are out such insects, by force of habit, will enter the trough elements 10 and will be exterminated by the liquid or powder 23 therein; that the roost will be durable and rugged in construction; that the roost may be suspended from the roof of a chicken house so that the chickens will not be bothered by animals, and may also be placed on the floor of the chicken house for small chickens.
I claim:
A chicken roost structure having the com bination of spaced wooden roost members, metal trough members, a non-metallic member secured inside of each trough member and of the same length thereof, bolts projecting upwardly from said non-metallic members and secured to said roost members, to rigidly fasten said roost members and trough members together, a metallic cover supported over each trough member and having holes there- 5 in through which said bolts project, the
through members serving to contain an insecticide.
HENRY FINTEL.
