CHECK-ROW CORN-PLANTER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 293,672, dated February 19, 1884.
Application filed August 28, 1883. (No model.)
ToaZZ whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, EARL H. REYNOLDS, a
citizen of the United States, residing at Prophetstown, in the county of Whiteside and State of Illinois, have invented a new and useful Check-Row Oorn-Planter,of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawings.
' This invention relates to certain improve ments in check-row corn-planters; and it ,has for its object to produce a device which shall possess superior advantages in point of convenience and general efficiency.
To this end it consists in certainimprovements in the construction of the same, which will be hereinafter fully described, and particularly pointed out in the claims.
In the drawings hereto annexed, Figure 1 is a perspective view, illustrating my invention in connection with the tappet-wire. Fig. 2 is a transverse vertical sectional View of the same. Fig. 3 is aplan view. Fig. 4 is avertical sectional view on the line or w in Fig. 3.
Fig. 5 is a detail View, in perspective, of the boxes of an ordinary planter to'which my inventi on is applied, and 'B is the seed-slide.
O G are brackets provided with slots D, to receive the screws or bolts E, by means of which they are secured upon the inner sides of the seed-boXes, as shown. The said brackets carry the cross-bar F,which supports the mechanism of my improved check-rower, which is as follows:
G G are frames or brackets projecting from the ends of the cross-bar F. At the outer corners of said brackets are mounted horizontal pulleys H H, and at the inner corners of said brackets are mounted similar horizontal pulleys I I. The axles or spindles J of the pulleys H, at each end of the machine, are connected by longitudinal guards K, and a trans verse guard, L, parallel to the cross-bar F,
sists of a casting comprising a pair of horizontal parallel cruciform plates, the front and rear arms'of which are integrally connected by the loops or bows N N. The upper and lower plates, 0 and P, are provided, respectively, with upward and downward projecting spindles Q and R, which are journaled, re-
spectively, in the guard L and in the cross-bar F, as shown in Figs. 2 and 4 of the drawings. The side arms, S, of the cruciform plates are connected with the front and rear arms, T, bymeans of inclined braces U, forming tracks, upon which the tappets of the check-rope may slide, as will be hereinafter more fully described. Metallic braces or stiffeners V are also provided, that connectthe ends of the arms S with the loops or bows N, as shown fully in Figs. 1 and 5 of the drawings. The upper spindle, Q, of the guide-disk is provided with a crank, W, which is connected by a pitman, X, with a crank, Y, projecting upwardlyfrom a rock-shaft, Z, journaled in brackets A longitudinally under the crossbar-F. The rear end of the rock-shaft Zhas'a crank, B working in a slotted bracket, 0, projecting upwardly from the seed-slide, which is thereby operated, as indicated in Figs. 1 and 2 of the drawings.
O designates the tappet wire, which is equipped in the usual manner with buttons or tappets D, and which is stretched upon the field in the well-known manner,-it being attached at its ends to suitable anchors, E one of which is shown in Fig"? 3 of the drawings.
The operation of this invention will be readily understood from the foregoing description, taken in connection with the drawings hereto annexed. The tappet-wire passes over the frontpulley, H, at one end of the machine, between the guidepulleys I I, between the plates forming the guide-disk, between guidepulleys I I, and over the pulley H, at the other end of the machine, as seen in'Fig. 3. As the machine progresses over the field, one of the tappets,- striking one of the inclined tracks U, will move along the said track until the ad joining arm T is encountered, when the guide disk will be oscillated or swung upon its bearings until the tappet may pass through the loop or bow N. It will then pass between the guide-pulleys I I, and will thus cause the wire to pass between the plates composing the guide-disk, thus directing the next tappet against the inclined track U on the other side of arm T, and causing a repetition of the operation, which will continue until the end of the field is reached. The device, it will be seen, will work equally well from either side.
In Fig. 6 of the drawings I have illustrated a modification of my invention, by which I avoid. guiding the tappet-wire across the machine, as described in the foregoing. The crossbar F is in this case provided with brackets F one at each end, forming bearings for the upper spindles of the guide-disks G", the lower spindles of which are j ournaledin crossbar F. The said guide-disks in this case eonsist of bars H, the inner ends of which are connected by loops or bows P, and the outer ends of which are forked. Said bars have forwardly-projecting arms J the sides of which are connected with said bars by inclined braces K. Horizontal guide-pulleys L are mounted upon brackets DP, projecting diagonally forward from the cross-bar F. The upper spindles of the guide-disks, at each end of the machine, are provided with cranks N, connected by a rod, 0', which is pivotally connected with the crank Y, projecting upwardly from the rockshaft Z. The operation is obvious.
I claim as my invention and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States 1. In a check-row corn-planter, the combination, with the seed-boxes connected seedslide, and brackets, of the cross-bar F, the end frames, G G, provided with horizontal pulleys H and I, the parallel guards K and L, connected to the axles of the pulleys, and the guide-disk M, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
2. In a check-row planter, the guide-disk M, consisting of the horizontal cruciform plates 0 I, with the oppositely-arranged loops N N, the braces U and V, and the upper and lower spindles, Q R, as described.
3. In a check-row planter, the combination,
with the guide-disk M, constructed substantially as described, of the crank \V, attached to the upper end of the spindle Q, thereof, pitman X, crank Y, rockshaft Z, with crank B and seed-slide O, with bracket 0 substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
4. As an attachment to a planter, the crossbar F, with the end frames, G G, provided with
