ICE SGRAPER. I No. 311,746. Patented. Feb 3, 18 85.
"NITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
LEVI HALLOIVELL, OF CHINA, MAINE.
ICE-SCIRAPER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 311,746, dated February 3, 1885.
Application filed February 2, 1894.
To all whom, it may concern.-
Be it known that I, LEVI HALLOWELL, of China, in the county of Kennebec and State of Maine, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Ice-Scrapers, which improvement is fully set forth in the following specification and accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is a view in perspective of an icescraper constructed according to my invention. Fig. 2 is a plan view of the inside of the right or off runner with the location of the scraper'brake and stop dotted thereon. Fig. 3 isa sectional view ot the runner; Fig. 4, a sectional view of the scraper at the point where the brake is attached; and Fig. 5 is a view of one end of the scraper to which the strap securing the same to the runner is fastened.
Like letters indicate like parts.
My ice-scraper is designed for use after the snow has been substantially cleared from the ice, and it is desirable to clear off any trod den snow or soft ice and leave the surface smooth and even.
In Fig. 1, a a are two runners connected by the cross-bars b b, which may be braced, as indicated at 8 8, 850., to make, the framework firm. To the front crossbar the pole 6 4 is secured by means of the eyebolts 5 5. Upon the cross-bars the springs s s are placed to hold the seat 1. The front crossbar has also the catch to thereon to hold the brake n. U pon the spring 8 are the teeth 2, to hold the brake it when thrown back. Between the runners the scraper in is placed,and secured thereto by the straps cc and bolts 01 i. This scraper has upon it the brake 02, secured by the bolt 0.
Upon the inside of each runner, at the lower.
indicates the manner in which the lower edge of the same is constructed. The outer edge is beveled, as indicated at w, and on the inside is placed the strap (1, about one-quarter of an inch thick, and secured to the runner by the bolts 3 3, &c., and projecting below the wood far enough to prevent its being worn.
(No model.)
It is advisable to cut into the runner, so that the inner surface shall be flush with the surface of the strap 6.
The construction of the scraper m is indicated in Fig. 4. The plank extends between the runners, and when in use is slanted, as indicated, though this is not absolutely necessary. The lower edge of this plank is beveled, so it will be in a plane with the ice. To the lower edge is secured the iron or steel cutter t by the screws a, 850. The front edge of this cutter is beveled, as indicated at v. The straps e e are secured to the scraper m by the screws or bolts 7 7, Fig. 5, or in any other convenient manner.
The scraper is designed, as before stated, to clear the ice-field after the bulk of snow is removed, and operates as follows: The operator sits upon the seatl to conveniently work the brake a. This brakeis thrown back until the cutter if is down as far as desired,
and it is then held by the teeth 2. The run ners shod with the thin plates 0 c cutthrough the snow down to the firm ice. This brings the cutter 15 down to the ice also. The whole is then drawn across the field and planes the surface smooth and even. WVhen it is desirable to unload, the brake n is thrown out of the teeth 2, which allows the scraper m to turn on the straps e e and bolts 2' t, and it is raised from the ice and passes over the pile of loose snow, &c., which has been gathered. The scraper may be held up by throwing the brake forward under the catch to. The lower edge of the wooden part of the scraper in being, as stated, beveled, so as to be in a plane with the ice, the lower side of the cutter t is also in a plane with the ice, and there is no tendency to gouge into the same.
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States, 1s-
In an ice-scraper, the scraper m, having the beveled cutter t and braken, or its equivalent, thereon connected to the runners a a by the straps c c, all in combination, as and for the purposes set forth.
In testimony whereof I hereto set my hand this 26th day of December, A. D. 1883.
LEVI HALLOWELL.
