I This invention relates to a seat frame or implement for use in thinning and blocking beets.
It is aimed to provide a novel construction which will accommodate a maximum of operators, enabling beets in a plurality of rows, usually .four, to be thinned and blocked asthe implement travels over the field.
It is further aimed to provide a novel skeleton form of machine for the purpose stated having minimum'parts, with certain of the seating por- Figure 4 is a detail sectional view taken on L the line 4-4 of Figure 1..
Referring specifically to the drawings wherein, like reference characters designate like or similar parts, the machine is adapted to accommodate four workmen; seats for whom are provided at- III, II, I2 and I3, transversely disalined, and one in line with each of four lines of beets suggested by the lines I4 in Figure 1, all of which workmen facing the left hand side of the figure.
The said seats III to I3 are frame generally designated A.
mounted on a novel This frame may comprise a beam having a V portion at I5 which is riveted or otherwise fastened at It and I1, to a front axle I8 and a housing or casing IQ for a rear axle and differential structure generally designated 20. At the apex of the V portion I5,
, the seat II is mounted as at 2i.
Diverging from one of the portions of the VI5, is a branch beam 22, rigidly secured as at 23 to such V. At the forward portion of the branch beam 22, theseat I is fastened as at 25. To be raised and folded onto the machine, when not in use, such portion 24 is connected to the portion 22 by a hinge or the equivalent as at 26.
The V portion I has a rearwardly eirtending branch beam 21 connected thereto in parallelism to the rows of beets, as by means of a hinge or the equivalent 28, similar to and for the same purpose as the hinge 26. The branch beam 21 has the seat I2 secured thereto as at 29.
tors.
. pivoted as at 40.
The remaining seat I3 an irregular beam 3I hinged as at 32 to the rear end of an extension beam 33, riveted, welded or otherwise rigidly secured to the housing I9, and along a plane 34, as best shown in Figure 3.
It will be realized that the skeleton frame and parts are so arranged that each occupant of a seat, may thin and block a diiferent row of the beets or the ,equivalent and that no undue obstructions-are afforded in front of such opera- Front wheels are provided at 35 which are journaled on spindles 36 arranged to steer on vertical axes 31 and having rearwardly-extending arms 38 to which a connecting rod 39 is The rear wheels of the machine are shown at 4! being driven from the conventional differential 20. The prime mover for the machine .is shown at 42 and it may for instance be an internal combustion engine of any suitable size, mounted on a, plate 43 secured to a bar or beam 44 fastened to the beams 22 and 33, and braced by a crossbeam l6. Engine 42 drives a shaft 41 under control of a-gear shift lever 48, and one or more transmissions 49 and 50, so thatthe desired reduction of speed may be attained. A sprocket wheel 5| on shaft 41 has a sprocket chain 52 trained thereover which in turn is trained over a sprocket wheel 53 keyedvto a shaft 54 of the difierential 20.
Operators from either or both seats I0 and 'I I' may steerthe' wheels 35 through engagement with lever members 55 and 56, respectively. These members normally serve as'rests for the feet of the operators occupying seats I0 and I I. Rest 55, however, is a lever pivoted at 51 to a bracket 59 fastened on the V beam I5. A connecting rod 58 is pivoted to such lever 55 at 58' and at 60 is pivoted to 7 the steering rod '39. Hence when the operator at seat I0 appropriately moves lever 55 with his foot, it will effect steering of the wheels 35. The same result is accomplished by an operator from the seat II since rest 56 is a lever pivoted on the bracket 59 and operatively connected at 6I to a connection 62 on the steering rod 39.
An additional foot rest 63 is secured to one of the V portions I5 for the operator at seat I I. A pair of foot rests are provided on the beam 21 for the operator at seat I2 as at 64 and 65 and I a pair of foot rests 66 and 61 are provided on the is fastened at 30, to
shaped according to the available space and working conditions.
Beams 2'! and 8| are preferably removable when not in use, in addition to being capable of raising and swinging over the frame of the machine when desired, on the axes of hinges 28 and 32. The detachable connections may be afforded by cleats 68 and bolts 69.
In the operation of the machine, it may be arranged to travel at any desired low speed so as to afford ample opportunity for all of the workmen to properly perform their task. Each workman usually uses a blocking hoe in one hand and with his other hand, picks out the extra bee plants left by the blocking hoe.
Various changes may be resorted to provided they fall within the spirit and scope of the invention'.
