LEVI HALLOVELL, OF CHINA, MAINE.
ICE-SCRAPER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 279,645, dated June `19, 1883. l Application filed February 20, 1883. (No model.)
To all whomit may concern: g
Be it known that I, LEVI HALLowELL, of China7 in the county of Kennebec and State of Maine, have-invented a new and useful Improvement in Ice-Scrapers, which improvement is fully set forth in the following specifi-A cation and accompanying drawings, in which- Figure l is a'view in perspective, and Fig. 2 a sectional view showing the construction and application of the edge of the scraper.
The object of my invention is to make a scraper that will slide over the surface of the ice without cutting into the same, that will lill readily, and one that can be operated by one man with very little labor.
In Fig. 1c is the back, I) lb the sides, c the bottom, and d d the handles, ofthe scraper. h h are two guards, upon which the scraper runs when tipped over to discharge the load. g q 'are straps, to which the horses are attached to draw the scraper. The handles d d pass under the bottom of the scraper, and, together with the parts ff, serve as supports or runners for the scraper when filling. j is a drag h. ving thereon the seat lc, upon which the operator rides. rIhis is connected to the scraper by the jointed rods 13 fi.
The construction of the runners f f and the application of the scraper-edge Z are shown in 2, in which c is thebottom of the scraper, fthe runner, andl the edge. This edge, made of iron or steel, is composed of the two straps l and 2, bolted through the wooden part of the scraper, and so applied that while the upper surface shall form substantially a plane with the upper surface of the bottom of the scraper c the lower part, 2, forms an angle with the under surface of the bottom c. The runners f f and handles d d are so constructed that their lower edges and the under surface of the strap 2 are in the same plane, so that when the scraper is drawn over the ice it takes up all the snow, but has no tendency to cut into it. The edge is beveled at 3, and the snow ills the scraper, there being no obstruction on the upper surface.
The operator rides upon the drag j, and when required can lift the handles and dump the load. rlhe scraper, remaining upside down, slides upon the guards la l1, and is tipped back when required.
The construction of the scraper is substantially the saine as an ordinary one, except the construction of the edge Z, and its application to the scraper, in combination with the runners f f and the handles d d, and the co1nbination of the whole with the drag and seatfor the driver.
It is obvious that the edgeZ may be made in two pieces, as described, or of one piece turned over. Another advantage of this con` struction is this: in passing onto the piles of snow at the dump the lower edges ofthe handles (l d and runners f f sink into the siiow, and the edge I, forming an upward angle with the bottom o f the scraper c, tends to ride over the snow, instead of cutting into it and thus overloading the scraper.
That I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States, 1s-
l. In an ice-scraper, the edge I, of iron or steel,constrncted double, the wood extending into the edge, the upper surface thereof being in a plane with the upper surface of the bottom of the scraper, the outer. edge thereof beveled, and'tthe under surface forming an angle with the under surface of the bottom of d' LEVI HALLOVELL.
