Description

I. H. CMN.

memea May 22,1817.
UNITE` PrrrEN'r FF IMPROVEMENT IN MOWERS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. [91.025, dated May 22, 1877; application filed March 12, 1877.
To all whom t lmay concern Be it known that I, JAMES ELOAIN, ofOana, in the county of Davie and State of North Carolina, have invented a new and useful Mowing-Machine, of which the following is a specification In the accompanying drawing, Figure l represents a top view, and Fig. 2 al front view, of my improved mowingmachine.
Similar letters ot' reference indicate corresponding parts.
The invention will first be described in con nection with the drawing, and then pointed out in the claim.
In the drawing, A represents the supporting-frame of my mowing-machine, which rests on the revolving` axle of the wheels by suitable boxes or bearings. One of the support ingwheels is toothed at the interior of the tire, to gear with a bevelwheel at the end of a cylinder or wave-wheel, C, which engages, by a wave-groove, a, the steel pin b of the reciprocating sickle-bar D. The shaft of the cylinder or wave-wheel C turns in suitable bearings of a frame, A', secured to the main or tongue frame A, while the reciprocating bar D is also guided in suitable recesses of' the lower frame A'. The mowing-sickle or cutter-blades E are hinged, respectively', to frame A' and to a pin of the reciprocating bar D, and connected, by a brace-rod, F', with the hand-lever F, the brace F' being hinged to a bail, d, of the lower cutter-blade. The handlever F is fnlcrumed to the main frame A, and connected, -by a pivot-rod, d', with a second fulcrumed lever, G, that operates a horizontal piece, Gr', which is pivoted to the rear cross-piece of frame A', and guided in a slot, e, of the front piece of the same. The end of the cylinder-shafts pivoted to a socket of the downward position by the lever, they are rigidly braced by the rod F', and retainedi in position for work by a hook, H, binding on le` ver F, so as to be operated by the reciprocating motion of the cutter-bar as imparted by the gearing of the wave-wheel with the main wheel. The swinging up of the cutter-blades interrups the gear of' main wheel and wavewheel by joint action of the levers F and G, and gives, in this manner, to the attendant a full control over the mower.
Having thus described my invention,l I claim as new and desire to secure by .Letters Patent- 'lhe combination of bar D, blades E, and hand-lever F, one ot' said blades being hinged to pin of bar D, and one connected by bail d with the hinged brace F', as and for the purpose specified. v
JAMES HARISON GAIN.'
