ALFRED O. DODGE, OF CHARLOTTE, MICHIGAN.
MILK-PAIL HOLDER.
SPECIFICATION forming part'of Letters Patent No. 228,827, dated June 1, 1880.
Application filed March 30, 1880. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ALFRED O. DODGE, of Charlotte, in the county of Eaton and State of Michigan, have invented a new and 1111- proved lVIilk-Pail Holder; and I do hereby cleclare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same.
The object of my invention is to provide a simple and convenient device for holding a milk-pail, which may be attached to the leg of the milker, and hold the pail in a well-protected position to prevent its being upset by the cow, or to prevent dirt from being thrown into it, and which will admit of both hands being used by the milker to draw the milk and direct it immediately into the pail or bucket.
My invention consists in a bracket that is suspended from the knee and embraces the leg, and is provided with suitable devices for supporting the pail above the ground, to be out of contact with dirt, and to be brought very near to the teats of the cow.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure l is a perspective view. Fig. 2 is a sectional view, showing the connection of the hoopD with the bracket. Fig. 3 is a broken view, in perspective, showing a modification of the hoop D, for rendering the same adjustable to differentsized buckets.
The pail support or bracket is preferably formed of a wooden strip, A, having a hook, B, of sheet metal, bent to conform to the upper side of the leg, secured to the upper end of the strip A and a circular clasp, C, also formed of spring sheet metal, is secured to the lower end of the strip A, to closely fit and clasp the lower part of the leg.
A metal plate, (I, screwed to the side of the strip A, is provided with holes passing through it to receive the bent ends of a hoop, D, to en circle the bucket. The bent ends of the hoop D are clamped between the plate 01 and the strip A, and are securely connected by them.
The hoop D may be made of a flat strip of sheet metal, if preferred, and have its ends perforated at suitable distances from each other, as shown in Fig. 3.
The ends of the strip are in this instance passed through the loop (Z from opposite sides, so as to overlap and bring one of the perforations of each end immediately opposite the other.
Ahinged hook, d is pivoted to the loop 0?,
so that its pin (1 will pass through a hole in the loop and the opposite perforations of the overlying ends of the hoop D.
By passing the ends of the hoop D more or less through the loop (1, the diameter of the hoop is changed to fit buckets of different slzcs.
In order to more securely hold the edge of the bucket against the side of the bracketstrip A, a catch, E, is arranged either to slide upon the strip A or behinged to it, so that it maybe hooked over the edge of the bucket, as shown in Fig. 1, and hold it firmly in place.
Various modifications could be made of the above device without departing from the spirit of my invention.
The bracket may be readily attached to either the right or left leg of the milker, as may be most convenient. It is preferred to hang it upon the inside of the right leg, so that when the milker is in a sitting position the hook B will rest over the knee and the strip A will bear against the inner side of the right leg. In this position the milker may sit upon the left-hand side of the cow, and the pail will be brought very near to the teat, so that the milk may flow immediately into the bucket and the milker may operate freely with both hands.
The pail will be fully protected from nearly all sides by the legs and body of the milker, and the bracket that supports the bucket is in immediate reach of the right hand of themilker, so that it may be instantly grasped should there be danger of a kick from the cow or other accident. The bucket is thus supported above the ground, so that it will not be soiled by the mud and filth of a barn-yard, and will be always firmly held, even should the ground immediately beneath the cow be unlevel and rough.
What I claim as my invention is 1. A pail-holder for milking purposes, con- 'sisting of a bracket provided with a hooked end or equivalent means for securing the bracket to the leg of the milker, and a hoop or equivalent device for holding the pail upon the bracket, these parts being arranged and 4. In a milk-pail holder, the combination of adapted for use substantially as specified. the bracket A, provided with means for se- 2. The bracket or pail-holder, consisting of curing it to the leg, and adjustable hoop D, to 15 the strip A, hook B, to rest upon the knee, be adjustable to suit the size of the bucket in 5 clasp C, to embrace the leg, and hoop D, for use, substantially as described.
encompassin the bucket, substantially as and for the purpose described. ALFRED O. DODGE.
3. In a milk-pail holder, the combination of the bracket A, provided with means for secur- WVitnesses: 1o ing' it to the leg, hoop D, forencompassing the DAVID M. VANZILE,
bucket, and catch E, for holding the bucket in EDMUND S. TRACY.
