SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 287,750, dated October so, 1883.
' Applicationfiled September 22, 1883 (No model.) 7
To all whom it may concern: I
Be it known that I, EDGAR C. WORTHEN, of Charlotte, county of Mecklenburg, State of North Carolina, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Hay andGotton Presses, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, making part of this specification.
Myinvention relates to the means for securing the sides or doors of thebaling-chamber, whereby they are adapted to be released for opening the chamber and freeing the bale by the operation by the attendant of a single lever; and it consists in the combination, with a baling-chamber in which the vertical walls or sides are made in the form of pivoted or hinged doors, of centrally-pivoted latch-bars,
suitable retaining-hooks, and a lever or levers connected with a rock shaft, whereby the latch-bars can be simultaneously rocked or vibrated for releasing or securing the doors by the operation ol' a single lever, as hereinafter explained. I
In the accompanying drawings,'Figure l is a perspective view of the baling-chamber of a hay or cotton press with my improvements applied, showing the doors closed and fastened; and Fig. 2 is a detail perspective view, showing one of the pivoted latch-bars and retaining-hooks, and the rock-shaft and its levers for actuating the latch-bars, whether for releasing or securing the same.
The press, aside from the'features h'ereinafter specifically described, may be of any usual or preferred construction, and it will therefore not be described further than is necessary to an understanding of my improvements.
A A represent portions of thepress-frame, the same being transverse or horizontal framebars uniting the corner posts or uprights of the frame, and in suitable bearingsocket-s in which the shafts or pivots'b of the side doors, B and B, are mounted, as shown, and A are corner posts or extensions of the upright corner frame-timbers, reaching above the bars A and A, and in which the shafts or pivots c of the end doors, 0 and C, have their bearings, as shown. These doors may be made in any usual or preferred way, but are shown as comcured at their lower ends to the inner faces of the horizontal bars I) ct the ends of which exposed of upright boards or strips 12 andc, se-
are'secured, respectively, to transverse bars I) and c and to the latter in suitable brackets, 11, arranged at or near the center of their length, are pivoted the latch-bars D, one at each end or side of the press, only one, however, being shown in the, drawings. To the ends of the bars I) on the doors B and B, or to supplemental stiffening-bars b and b rigidly secured to the bars b', are secured retaining? hooks c 'c", the former open from above and the latter from below, to adapt them to receive and engage the ends of the centrally-pivoted bars D, and which are provided with hooks or hooked ends d and d the former projecting downward and the latter upward in hook form, to adapt them to engage and retain the hooks e and e in a manner that will be readily understood-from an inspection of the drawings.
zvibrating them on their central pivots, serves to simultaneously release all the doors.
In suitable bearing-brackets, f, on the bar h or b? is mounteda rock-shaft, F, provided at its ends with cam-levers Gand G, adapted to engage with spurs d on the adjacent ends of the latch-bars D. These cam-levers are forked or provided with arms or spurs g and g on its cam-shaped or pivoted end, the'spur d on the latch-bar passing between said arms when the doors are closed. The arms or spurs y, when the doors are closed and fastened by the latchbars, rest upon said bars or spurs (F, and serve to prevent accidental displacement of the latch-bars; but by rocking the shaft F outward through eitherof the levers G. or G,,the arms or spurs g are made to act upon the lower faces of the spurs d for rocking the latch-bars D on their central pivots, until they are freed from their retaining-hooks e and 6, when the doors will all be released and free to rock on their shafts or pivots for opening the balingchamber and releasing the bale.
Ice
Having now described my invention, I claim as new 1. The combination, with the doors of a baling-press, of the centrally-pivoted latchbar, the retaining-hooks, and means for actuating said 1atoh-bar for engaging the same with or disengaging it from the retaininghooks, substantially as described.
2. The combination, in a baling-press pro vided with side or end and front and rear doors, of the centrally-pivoted latch-bars, the retaining-hooks, and the rook-shaft, with its forks or levers for actuating said latch-bars, substantially as described.
3. The combination, in a baling-press, of the hinged doors B and B, G and O, the centrallypivoted latch-bars D, with the hooked ends, the retaining-hooks e and e, the rook-shaft F, and the levers G and G, arranged and operating substantially as and for the purpose described.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand this 21st day of September, A. D. 1883.
E. G. VVORTHEN.
