UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
z. N. MORRED, or CAMERON, TEXAS.
IMPROVEMENT IN MACHINES FOR DISTRIBUTING FERTILIZERS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 25,574, dated September 27, 1859.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, Z. N. MORREL, of Cameron, in the county of Milam and State of Texas, have invented a new and useful improvement in Fertilizier-Distributers; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings,forming a part of this specification, in which- Figure 1 is a longitudinal side view of the distributer. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section of the same; Fig. 3, a plan view; Fig. 4, a view of distributing-wheel and slide; Figs. 5 and 6, boot and shares modified.
Similar letters of reference in each of the severalfigures indicate corresponding parts.
The nature of my invention consists not in any of the devices taken separately, but in the combined arrangement of a single side wheel, 1), a distributing-wheel, G, placed in a slot in the beam, a slide, I, for regulating the amount of fertilizer distributed, revolving arms L within the hopper, a boot, K, under the distributing-wheel, set-screw J, shares d d, cogwheels E E draft-rod S, sprocket-wheels F F, whereby the distribution of fertilizing agents can be effected in a more perfect manner than by other arrangements in use.
To enable others skilled in the art to make and use my invention, I will proceed to describe its construction and operation.
The general construction of the machine is similar to a plow, A representing the beam, on which is placed a hopper, B, over a slot, 0, in the beam. In this slotis a distributin-g-wheel, O, turning with the shaft of the driving-wheel 1). On this shaft is also placed, outside the beam and iuside the driving-wheel, a pinion, E, the cogs of which mesh into a similar pinion-wheel, E upon theside of the hopper and im mediately above the other. Upon this shaft, outside of the pinion-wheel E, is a sprocketwheel, F, from which runs an endless chain, G, to a similar wheel, F upon the shaft of the covering-wheel H at the rear end of the beam.
These sprocket-wheels, with the endless chain,
are placed here as auxiliary to the drivingwheel D. At the bottom of the hopper, and
on the top of the beam, is placed a slide, I. This slide is made of a thin plate of metal, with a slot, 7), near the back end, through which is a screw, J, by which the slide is kept in its place. At its forward end is an open slot for the purpose of allowing the fertilizer to pass through upon the distributing-wheel G. The quantity passing in a given time, or with each revolution of the wheel,is regulated by moving the slide back or forward after loosening the screw J.
Projecting from the periphery of the distributing-wheel are some half dozen or more pins, 0. These pins, as the wheel moves round, pass into the slot in the slide 1, and, according as the slide is placed forward or back, force a greater or less quantity upon the distributing-wheel. From the distributing-wheel it falls into a hollow boot, K, open at the bottom, so as to allow it to fall into the furrow made by the wedge-shaped forward edge of the boot. The front lower corner of this boot is rounded, something in the form of a sleighrunner, that it may slide or jump over clods of earth or stones. Behind this are placed two shares, (1 d, the tops of which are attached to each side of the beam A. These shares are so construetedas to turn the earth from each side into the furrow made by the boot K. Forthis boot and the shares may be substituted others of different form, as shown in Figs. 5 and (3. Within the hopper B, and attached to the shaft of the upper pinion-wheel, E are l'ourrevolving arms,L,so placed that as theymove round with the shaft they will stir up the fertilizer and force it to the slot in the forward part of the slide I.
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
The combined arrangement of the single side wheel, I), distributing-wheel U, regulatin g-slide I,revolving arms L,boot K, set-screw J, shares (1 d, cog-wheels E E draft-rod S, sprocket-wheels F F, roller H, and chain G, in the manner and for the purposes set forth.
Z. N. MORREL.
