UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICEe JOHN H. NEALE, OF HUMBOLDT, NEBRASKA.
CORN-PLANTER.
- SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 231,605, dated August 24, 1880.
Application filed March 30, 1880.
To all whom ttmcy concern Be it known that I, JOHN Ht NEALE, of Humboldt, in the county of Richardson and State of Nebraska, haveinvented certain new and useful Improvements in Corn-Planters; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the construction and operation of the same, reference being had to the annexed drawings, making a part of this specification, and to the letters and iigures of reference marked thereon.
Figure l of the drawings is arepresentation oi' a side elevation of my corn-planter. Fig. 2 is a plan view of the same, and Fig. 3 is a detail view.
The invention relates to corn-planters; and it consists in the improvements in the construction of the same hereinafter fully described, and particularly pointed out in the claim.
Referring by letter to the drawings, A desi gnates the main frame, com posed of the crossbars B and C and the two side rails, D D, betweenthe forward ends of which the tongue d is pivoted, so that it may be turned back between theln to economize space in storing the implement. This frame A is supported upon the opening-disks E E and the coveringwheels F F, having their bearings in the sides of frames Gr G, depending from the bars B O of the frame A, as shown.
The seed-hoppers H H are placed at opposite ends of the bar B, which is provided with the usual discharge openings, and the dischargc-spouts I I come directly in front of the covering-wheels F, which are concave in their edges, in order to lill the dirt in upon the seed after it has been dropped in the furrows made by the opening-disks E.
The mechanism foroperating theseed-slides J is as follows: Levers K, connected to the seed-slides J, are pivoted in arms L, extending rearward from the bar C, and connected by (No model.)
pit-man-rods M to the crankshaft Nof a spoked wheel, O, journaled in the arms P of a lever, Q, which-is pivoted to the standard R of .the drivers seat, and connected at its rear end to the cross-bar S of a frame, T, the side bars of which are hinged to the rear faces of the seed hoppers.
It will be seen that the lever Q, can be operated by the drivers foot to throw the hinged frame T upward, which will lift the spoked wheel O from the ground, and thus stop the seed-slides. y
The crank-shaft N is constructed to operate the levers K simultaneously.
From the foregoing description the operation of the seed-planter will be obvious.
I am awareI that a pronged traction-wheel having bearings in a pivoted frame has been used to operate the seed-slides of a cornplanter, and that said pivoted frame has been provided with cords, Wheel, and ratchet, by which it could be raised to throw the tractionwheel out of action, as shown in Patent N o. 154,965, of September .15, 1874, and this construction I do not claim.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
In a corn-planter, the combination of the pivoted foot-lever Q, connected to the crossbar S of the frame T, hinged to the rear faces of the seed-boxes H H, with the pronged traction-wheel O, crank N, pitmen M M, levers K K, and slides J J, constructed and operating substantially as and for the purposes set forth.
In testimony that I claim the above I have hereunto subscribed my name in the presence of two witnesses.
JOHN H. NEALE.
Witnesses:
E. A. TUCKER, JOSEPH GLAssER.
