UNITED STATES JOHN S. HALL, OF WEST MANCHESTER, PENNSYLVANIA.
IMPROVEMENT IN PLOWS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 29,591, dated August 14, 1860.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN S. HALL, of West Manchester, in the county of Allegheny and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Flows; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, making a part of this specification, in Which- Figure 1 represents a perspective view taken from the rear of the plow, and Fig. 2 represents the lower end of the handle and lug or projection to which it is secured.
' In bending the lower end of a plow-handle so as to fit it to the mold-board, there is great loss by breakage, owing to the scarcity and difficulty in procuring the proper kind or wood. This loss is about ten per cent. Besides, when a bent handle breaks it is not easily replaced by a farmer, but requires a mechanic to do it, while a straight handle may be made and litted by any one accustomed to handle a plow.
To fit a straight handle to a curved moldboard, so as to make it strong and reliable and at the same time cheap, is the'object of my invention. I would state, however, that straight handles have been used, and that provision of some kind has been made to unite it to the mold-board by means of loops, tlanges, projections, or brackets cast onto the mold-board; bnteithcr thedifticultyot castingor some other insuperable objections have so far kept them out of use.
I disclaim the broad idea of a straight handle and a projection on the back of the moldboard to unite it to.
Myinvention consists in the particular kind of seat and projection which I use for this purpose, and which,without adding to the tirst cost of the plow, (taking into consideration the saving in the straight handles over the bent ones,) makes it more durable and reliable than any other device for a similar purpose of which I have any knowledge.
To enable others skilled in the art. to make and use my invention, I will proceed to describe the same with reference to the draw- The mold-board A, I propose to make of wrought-iron or steel and weld it to the standard B, which is also of wrought-iron or steel.
The plow may have a share, point, landside, &c., or not, as may be preferred, and made separate from the mold-board and standard, though united to them in any of the usual ways, these appliances in nowise interfering with what I consider my invention,or at variance with it.
0 is the beam, and D D the handles, of the plow. The handles are straight, the one, D, being fastened to the beam and to the landside in any of the usual ways. For the sup port of the other handle, I), I make a seat or shoe, E, of either cast or wrought iron, or of steel struck up into proper form, which is bolted to the mold-board by tapering bolts n, sons to remain firm thereon until the moldboard wears through. This shoe is hollowed out at a, so as to tit snugly to the back of the mold-board. It has a seat, 0, and a flange,f, for the bottom of the handle to rest upon, and by means of one or two bolts, '5, through said flangefand through the handle theyare firmly held together.
It thought expedient, spurs may be cast or wrought on the flange or seat to enter the wood of thehandle; but with two bolts, as at i, this will not be necessary.
The bolts to u may pass through lugs m or made on theshoe; and,instead of boltsn, rivets may be used.
The simplicity, cheapness, and strength of this plow, together with the ease with which a farmer or plowman can make and lit in a handle should one become brbken, is what commends it as an agricultural implement.
Having thus fully described my invention, I would state that I am aware that a flange has been extended from the landside ot' a plow to fasten the mold-board and handle to. This I do not claim; but
What I claimtherein as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-- A shoe or support as a device for fitting a straight handle to the back of a mold-board of a plow, when said shoe is made, as herein de scribed, of cast or wrought iron or of steel, and bolted or riveted to the mold-board, as herein stated.
