NIPROVEMENT IN WHEEL-CULTIVATORS.
Speelcntiou f'ornlng part of Letters Patent N0. 206,010, dated July lf?, 187B; application filed June 4, 1878.
i To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, FRANCIS W. FUsEv, of Carthage, in the county of Rush and State of Indiana, have invented a new and useful Plow- Piloting (lnltivator, of which the following is a description, reference being had to the accompan yin g drawing.
My invention. relates to certain devices for piloting the wheels of a cnltivator-plow.
The object of my invention is to enable the plows of a wheel and tongue cultivator to automatically adjust the wheels, so that they will travel in line with the plows, and at the same time operate the tongue, and prevent the horses, when deviatin g slightly' from their true course, from changing the direction of travel of the wheels and plows.
Myinvention consists,mainly,in the construction, arrangement, and application of new devices 5 also, in new combinations of old elements necessary to the results produced.
In the accompanying drawing, in which similar letter of reference in the ditt'erent ti gures indicate like parts, Figure l represents a perspective View of my machine. Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the same, with one wheel removed to show the arrangement of parts more fully; and Fig. 3 is a plan view of the same.
A A represent the wheels, mounted upon an arched axle, B. The hounds C G are firmly secured to the arch of the axle B by staples or fastenings a a, and further secured thereto by the braces p p. The front ends of the houndbars C C are united together by the plates g g, and the bar s also unites the hound-bars immediately in the rear of the arch-axle B. The tongue F is pivoted to the hounds, between the plates g g, by the pin or bolt i, and the rear end of the tongue is provided with a friction-roller, G, which operates on the bar s, said bar s forming asupport for the tongue below, and the arch of the axle B forming a guide above, thus preventing the tongue from moving up or down between them, while the pivot-bolt i at the front of the hounds permits the tongue to move laterally between them.
Across the top of the hounds C C, between the arched axle B and the plates g, is a crossbar, D, which is firmly secured to the houndbars C C by staples or other fastenin gs, d d, as shown. The forwardlprojectin g arms m m are formed with horizontal sleeves 0 O, that cncircle the arched axle B at each side ot' the arch, and are secured by set-screws, or by clamping so as to be adjustable-1'.. e., to allow an adjustment on the axle to widen or close the distance between the two sets of plows. At the front ends of the arms m mare vertical sleeves L L, in which the vertical crank-rods K K operate. The upper ends of these crankrods K operate in the sleeve-blocks H H, which are mounted on the cross-bar D, and are also adjustable.
The crank-rods K K are provided with cranks K3 K3 above the adjustable sleeve-blocks H H, to which are pivoted one end oi' the connecting-rods o o. The other ends ot' the rods o o are pivoted to the ends of the lever E, and the lever E is pivoted to the top of the tongue F, as shown.
The crank-rods K K are also provided with crank-arms Kl K below the forward-projecting arms m m, which extend backward, andare further provided with a hinge-j oint or lateral] yproj ecting axles, K2 K2, to which the front ends of the plow-beams R It are united either by hingejoints or by sleeve-coupling P P, as shown.
It will be seen from the foregoing that when the plow beams 1t It are moved laterally they swing, by means of the hinges or axles K2 K2, cranks K K1, and crank-rods K K, in the vertical sleeves L L and H H, andif both sets of plows are moved in opposite directions laterally at the same time, they have no eliect on the direction or motion ofthe tongue or wheelsthat is, the tongue will remain in a central line with the hounds C C; but it' one plow be held and the other plow moved laterally, or both plows moved in the same direction laterally, the cranks K3 K3, which are connected with the plows, will move the rear end ot the ton gne in the same direction that the plows move, and the pivot /i will cause the front end of the tongue to move laterally in the opposite direction, and no twisting motion is imparted to the wheels. Thus any slight deviation oi' the horses from the line ot' plowing does not effect the wheels or plows 5 but it' the front end of the tongue is held between horses against lateral motion the wheels are twisted, when the plows are moved latcrall y in the same direction, either singly or both together. Thus the wheels are made to track in the proper direction, even if the tongue be to one side or the other, and one horse walking on one row or in the next furrow.
dien it becomes necessary to turn the machine around, the plows may be hung up out ofthe way by hooking the plow-beams on the hooks r z' at the rear of the hound-bars C C.
The plows may be adjusted widely apart or closely together by moving the arms m m` on the arched axle B andthe sleeve-blocks ll H on the bar I).
What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent. is-
1. In a wheel-plow, the vertical shaft K, having; a crank, K, above and a crank, Ki, below, and a crank-axle or hinge, K2, at the rear end of the crank K, combined with the plow-beam R, in the manner and for the purpose set forth and described.
2. In a wheel-plow, the arms m m, having clamps 0 and vertical sleeves L L, combined with the arched axle B and crank-shafts K in the manner and for the purpose set forth and described.
3. In a Wheel-plow, the tongue F, with lever E and connecting-rods o o', combined with the cranks K3 Kl and plow-beams R, in the manner and for the purpose set forth and described.
4. The rods K, with cranks K3 and K, combined with the rear end of the tongue F, in the manner and for the purpose substantially as set forth and described.
5. The plow-beams R, combined with the crank-bar K1 K K-1 and rear end of the tongue F, in the manner and for the purpose substantially as shown and described.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specication in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
