BANE-CUTTER AND FEEDER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 289,030, dated November 27, 1883.
Application filed June 22, 1883.
ing is a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, which will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the ac- GOmpanying drawings, which form a part of this specification, and in which I Figure l is aside View of myimproved handcntt-ing and feeding attachment for thrashingmachines. Fig. 2 is a top View of the same, with the doors in the top of the frame shown open. Fig. 3 is a longitudinal vertical sectional view on linez c, Fig. 2. Fig. 4 is a cross-sectional view on line as .r, Fig. 2, and Fig. 5 is a similar view on line 1 g Fig. 2, seen from the direction opposite that of Fig. 4.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the figures.
My invention has relation to handcutting and feeding attachments for thrashing-inachiues, and has for its object, in common with others, first, to effect the severing of the band, cord, or other material around the sheaf when thrown into the hopper, and, second, to facilitate the feeding of the wheat or other grain to the thrasher; and it consists in the improved construction and combination of parts of the same, as will be hereinafter more fully de scribed and claimed.
In the accompanying drawings, A repre sents the frame or casing which supports the several parts of my improved band-cutting and feeding attachment for thrashing-machines, which is so constructed that it may be readily attached to any thrashing-machine of ordinary construction.
B indicates the main drive-shaft, which receives its motion through a belt, preferably from the thrasher, which passes around a cone or speed pulley, G, on one end of the shaft B. To the same end of the drive-shaft is also at fixed a pulley, l), and a pinion, E, while to the opposite end of the drive-shaft is affixed a pulley, F, as shown in't-he drawings. The teeth of the pinion E mesh with the teeth of (No model .3
apron K 011 rollers L M, the ends of the rollers fitting into journalboxcs in the sides of the frame or casing A. One of the ends of the The straw-carriers J K 0011- rollers L and N extends through the side of the frame A, the roller L having fastened to its outer end a pulley-wheel, P, while the roller N has two pulleys, Q Q, fastened to its outer end, as shown at Fig. 2. An endless belt, It, passes around the pulley l, secured to the gear-wheel G, and the pulleys l and Q. on the ends of the shafts or rollers L and N, the belt moving in the direction indicated by the arrows. As the gear-wheel G is rotated by the pinion E on the driveshaft B, the belt R transmits its motion to the rollers L and N, thereby causing the endless aprons J- K to travel toward thecenter of the frame, for the purpose hereinafter specified.
\Y represents a disk or pulley wheel, which revolves upon a stud-axle or spindle, T, pro jecting from the side of a cross-beam, X, which forms a part of the frame A, and extends above the endless apron K, as shown in Fig. 3 of the drawings. To the outer surface of the disk or wheel 7 is attached an adjustable knife, Y, adapted to out the hands of the sheaves or bundles which pass below it on the traveling apron K. The knife Y is fastened adj ustably upon the face of the wheel Vv' bya bolt or pivot, A, passing through its heel, while a thumbscrew, B, passes through the knife near its heel to fit into one of aseries of screw-threaded apertures in the face of the disk.' By this arrangement the cutting-edge of the knife can be adjusted at any desired angle, whereby I am enabled to take up 'wear of the cutting edge. A similar disk or wheel, S, is affixed upon a stud-axle projecting from a cross-beam,
U, extending above the endless apron J at the other end of the frame A, a knife, U, being adjustably fastened upon the outer face of the disk S by means of a pivot, A, and
2 e'aaeso thumb-screw V, in the same manner as that in which the knife Y is fastened to its disk XV. The disk or pulley wheels V and S are rotated by means of endless belts O D, the belt 0 fitting around the pulley D on one end of the driveshaft B and passing over guide-pulleys E, F, and G, hung in suitable hearings on the outside of the frame A, and around the pulley WV, while the belt I) fits around the pulley F on the other end of the drive-shaft B and passes over guide-pulleys H, 1, and J, hung in suitable bearings on the outside of the frame A, at its other end, and passes around the pulley S.
K indicates a pulley-wheel revolving upon a stud-axle or spindle, L, projecting from the side of the casing. From the face of the disk K projects a wrist-pin, L, to which is attached the end of a pitman, M, the other end of which is pivoted to the end of a lever or connecting-rod, N, which passes through a slot, 0, in the side of the casing A, and is held in position by a bolt or pivot, Q, upon which it turns. The end of the lever N, which projects inside of the frame or casing A, is pivoted to the middle of a shaking-bar, R, which is provided with. upwardly-proj ectin g teeth or fingers S, the shaking-bar being of such a length that its ends pass through the slots T in the end walls of the lower part of the frame A. An endless belt, U, passes around the pulley-wheel K and the pulley Q 011 the end of the roller N, so that as the roller N is revolved by the belt R, previously referred to,
the pulley Q will transmit its motion to the pulley K, to which the end of the pitman M is attached by the wrist-pin L, the pitman M and the lever N serving to rock or oscillate the shaking-bar It. A11 endless apron, V, supported upon the central part of the driveshaft B, and a roller, W, having its ends journaled in the end walls of the lower part of the frame A, below the shaking-bar R, serves to convey the grain to the thrashing concave and cylinder.
X X indicate the hoppers, which are attached to the top of the frame A, one above each of the traveling aprons J K.
Y Y represent hinged doors in the top of the frame A, between the hoppers X, through which access may be obtained to the inner working parts of the attachment.
Z Z indicate slots in the top of the frame A, to permit the free passage of the revolving knives U and Y.
The operation of my improved band-cutting and feeding attachment for thrashing-machines is as follows: The sheaves are laid in the hoppers X, when they fall crosswise or at right angles upon the endless aprons J and K, and are carried under the revolving knives U Y, which cut the bands of each sheaf as it passes beneath it. The bundles then fall crosswise or at right angles upon the shakingbar B, which stirs up and loosens the bundles, after which they falllengthwise upon the endless traveling apron V, which conveys them to the thrashing concave and cylinder.
From the foregoing description, taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, the construction and operation of my improved band-cutting and feeding attachment for thrashing-machines will readily be understood without requiring further explanation.
By constructing the band-cutting portion of my attachment doublethat is to say, with two hoppers, two revolving knives, and two endless aprons for carrying the sheaves under the said knives-I enable the thrashing-machine to be fed from two stacks at once, thereby effecting a great saying in time.
Having thus described my invention,I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States 1.. The combination, in a band-cutting and feeding attachment for thrashing-machines, of the aprons J and K, shaking-bar R, having upwardly-projectingteeth or fingers S, adapted to loosen and separate the sheaves which fall upon it crosswise or at right angles from the aprons J and K, lever N, pitman M, pulley K, having wrist-pin L, endless belt U, pulley Q, means or mechanism by which a retary motion may be imparted to said pulley, and'apron V, all arranged to operate substan tial] y in the manner and for the purpose shown and set forth.
2. The combination of the frame A, driveshaft B, having a speed or cone pulley, O, pulley-wheels D F, and pinion E, guide-pul leys E F G and H I J, disks or pulleys S V, adjustable knives U Y, endless belts O D. gear-wheel G and pulley I, rollers N O and endless apron J, rollers L M and endless apron K, pulleys P Q, endless belt R, pulley Q, pulley K, having wrist-pin L, endless belt U, pitman M, lever N, and shaking-bar R, having upwardly-projecting teeth or fingers S, roller \V, and endless apron V, adapted to travel around the-middle part of the driveshaft B and the roller WV, all constructed and arranged to operate substantially as and for the purpose shown and described.
' In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own I have hereunto affixed my signature in presence of two witnesses.
