SHEAF-CARRIER.
SPECIFC'ATION forming part. oi' Letters Patent No. 311,550, dated February 3, 1885.
Application filed November $12, 1883.
fo all whom it may concern Be it known that I, WILLIAM N. WHITE- LEY, of Springfield, in the county of Clark and State of Ohio, have invented new and useful Improvements in Sheaf-Oarriers for Automatic Binders; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full and accurate description of the saine, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, wherein- Figure l is a perspective view of my improved sheaicarrier attached to an automatic binder. Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the sheatcarrier. Fig. 3 is a plan of the same.
A is the main wheel of the harvester, to which my improvement is attached, and B B are portions ot' the supporting frame-work upon which the elevator and the binding mechanism are mounted. C is the gear-wheel or ring attached to the main wheel'A for the purpose of transmitting` motion to the shaft D, whereby the operative mechanisms are actuated. These and other parts necessarily shown in the drawings are common to machines of this description.
The binding devices are attached and operated upon a metallic frame, E, which consists, essentially, ot' a post provided with two laterally-extended parallel hollow arms, the post being rigidly attached to the frame ofthe machine. Said binding devices are thereby securely retained in place and proper working relation to each other, independent ofthe exigencies which may cause the joints ofthe machinei'rame to shit't their relative positions.
lt will not be necessary to describe any of the operative parts of the binder, because theyT are not concerned in this invention. A bar, F, is attached to the upper arm of the frame E by means of the braces G H, so that it is iirmly held in position with relation to the said upper arm. The bar F serves several purposes in the organization of the binder; but the purpose which is concerned in this case is the support ofthe inner ends of the bars I J, upon the outer ends whereof the shcatearrier, which forms the particular subject-matter of this invention, is supported.
The sheaf carrier and discharger consists of a roclcshaft, K, mounted in bearings upon the outer ends of the bars I J. Its outer end is turned outward to constitute a Crank-arm, L, and it is operated and controlled by a hand- (No model.)
l bar, M, one end oi' which engages with said crank-arm, and the other is provided with a hand-hold in convenient reach ofthe driver or attendant. The fingers N are severally attached at one end to the rock-shaft K, and from thence they depend and curve around toward the binding-machine, terminatingj ust below the tail-board O of said machine when the carrier is in normal position. A brace or stretcher bar, l), is laid across the backs of the lingers N at a proper point, and each finger is rigidly fastened to said bar. A brace, Q, is also laid obliquely across said fingers and extended to the crank-arm L, near its outer extremity, and this brace not only restrains to swing with the rock-shaft when itis rocked by means ofthe rod M. Vhen the gavels are bound by the binding` mechanism and the bound sheaves discharged over the tail-board O, which drops to a level position for that purpose, they are received upon the fingers N and held there until such time as the driver chooses, when by pulling the bar he causes the fingers to recede from under said sheaves, and they are permitted to drop upon the stubble.` Having discharged the accumulated sheaves the fingers are returned for another load.
To relieve the driver 'from constant attention to the bar M, a loop, R, is placed upon the frame, preferably upon the bar l, and the bar M passes through said loop as a guide for its forward end. Two stops, Si T, are placed upon the under side of said bar, in proper location as to the loop R, to enable one ot' them to lock against said loop and hold the teeth down in normal position to receive the sheaves, as described, and the other to lock in a contrary way against said loop to hold the fingers back, in the position of discharge, when for any reason it isl desired that the iingers shall not receive the sheaves. A yielding stop, U, is placed on the frame to arrest the cranlcarm L when the gatherer has reached a proper normal position, and it is convenient to fashion Y said stop from a rod of steel, one end being securely bolted to the bar l and the other end being wound around the rock-shaft K as a bearing, Vand to gain length to impart greater elasticity is iinally terminated by a hook1 shaped rest, into which the crank-arm L may the fingers from lateral sway, but causes them ICC befreceived and elastically supported. The supports for the rock-shaft are arranged at one end and at the middle, so that the other end and one edge ofthe carrier overhang the supports, and therefore when the carrier-teeth are swung back the attendant may have free and unobstructed access to the operative parts of the binding-machine.
The carrier device, bei'ng attached to the binding-machine wholly by the supportingboxes in which the rock-shaft L turns, may be readily removed by detaching said boxes, or liberating said shaft from them, so that when 1 not Wanted for use it may be removed from the machine or replaced when required with very little trouble. y
Having described my invention, I claim as neW- l. The combination, with an automatic grain-binder, of a rock-shaft supported from the main frame thereof, curved depending :fingers secured to said rock-shaft, and a stop, U, upon the frame for arresting the downward movement of said fingers.
2. The rock-shaft K and crank L, provided with the depending. iingers to constitute a swinging sheaf-carrier, combined with the elastic rest or stop U.
3. The rock-shaft K, provided with the 'crank-arm L and curved fingers N, attached thereto, combined with the brace or stretcher rod. P, and the bracerod Q, to constitute a sheaf-carrier.
4. The frame E, and the bar F, attached thereto and supported thereon by the braces G H, combined with the bars I J, attached to said frame and bar, as shown, and the swinging sheaf-carrier, as set forth.
WILLIAM N. VHITELEY.
