UNITED STATES PATENT @rricn.
ELIAS R. HARMAN, OF LINCOLN, NEBRASKA.
STOCK-FEEDER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 312362, dated February 17, 1885.
Application liled May 26, i854. (Model) To all whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, ELIAS It. HARMANfoi Lincoln, in the county of Lancaster'and State of Nebraska, have invented a new and Improved Stock-Feeder, of which the following is a full. clear, and exact description.
The object of my invention is to provide a new and improved stock-feeder in which each animal is provided with a separate trough, and all the troughs can be filled uniformly very easily and rapidly.
The invention consists in the construction and arrangement of parts, as will be hereinafter fully described and claimed.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, in which similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in both the figures.
Figure 1 is a plan view of my improved stock-feeder, parts being broken out. Fig. 2 is a partial face and sectional view of the same.
On a circular or other suitable base. A, a hollow cylinder, B, is arranged centrally, in which a cone, 0, is arranged on the base A. The edges of the base of the cone rest against the bottom edge of the hollow cylinder B. From the bottom of the cylinder B a series of radial partitions, D, extend outward, and between the outer ends of the said partitions outwardly and upwardly inclined end boards, E, are secured on the base, the said boards E being provided at each end of the top edge with an upwardly-projecting lug, F, around which lugs wires G are passed, which are passed through the radial partitions D. A number of wedgeshaped troughs, H, are thus formed on the base, and at the inner end of each trough an opening, J, is formed in the bottom of the cylinder.
A circular top plate, K, is placed on the partitions and against the upper part of the cylinder B. Bands L are passed around the base A and the top K, to hold the partitions D in place.
The food for the stock is poured or dumped into the top of the cylinder and slides down the cone G and through the openings J into the several troughs, and the same quantity of food passes into each trough, so that each animal will have the same quantity, and smaller and weaker animals cannot be crowded away by the stronger animals. lfthe food is liquid, for instance-such as slops for pigs-a barrel containing the slops is held on the top of the cylinder, and this barrel is to be provided in its bottom with a valve which can be opened from the top to let the slops slide down the cone into the troughs. A greater or less number of troughs may be provided.
The feeder can be made of wood or metal.
As the above-described trough can easily be kept very clean, diseases of, the stock will be prevented.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent 1. In a stock-feeder the combination, with a base, of the cylinder held on the same and provided on its bottom edge with a series of openings, J, the cone within the cylinder, the radial partitions D, and the upward and outward inclined boards between the lower ends of the outer edges of the partitions D, whereby a separate trough is formed in front of each opening J, substantially as set forth.
2. In a stock-feeder, the combination, with a base, of the cylinder 13, held on the same,
and provided in its. bottom edge with openings'J, the radial partitions D, the boards E, held between them, and provided with upwardly-projecting end lugs, F, and of wires G, passed through the partitionsD and around the end lugs, F, substantially as herein shown and described.
3. In a stock-feeder, the combination, with the base A, of the hollow cylinder B, the ra dial upright partitions D, the circular top K, the bands L, and the boards E, held between the partitions D, substantially as herein shown and described.
ELIAS R. EAR-MAN.
