GOMBINBD CORN PLANTER AND PLOW.
(No Model.)
Patented Mar. 3, 1885..

JOSEPH BOLLINGER, OF BRAOKEN, INDIANA.
COMBINED CORN PLANTER VAND PLOW.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 313,296, dated March 3, 1885.
Application filed October 22, 1884. (No model.)
Indiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Combined Corn Planter and Plow; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the ann eXed drawings, making a part of this specification, and to the letters and figures of reference marked thereon.
Figure l of the drawings is a perspective view Of my invention, and Fig. 2 a longitudinal section thereof.
The object of the present invention is to provide a combined corn-planter and corn-plow that will successfully plant the corn without in any manner having first scored, furrowed out, or marked the ground to be planted.
The invention consists in the several details of construction, substantially as shown in the drawings, and hereinafter described and claimed.
In the accompanying drawings, A represents the side bars, and B the axle rigidly connected thereto, upon/the ends of which are mounted suitable driving-wheels@ atongne, D, being connected to the axle and extending 'forward sufficiently to attach the team thereto. The seed -boXes E are supported above the axle B by metal braces F,connected thereto and to the boxes, a seat, a, being provided between the boxes for the driver, and also a foot-rest, b, attached to the tongue D.
To the forward end of the side bars, A, is pivoted a transverse bar, G, provided near its ends with inwardly-extending arms c,to which are connected at an acute angle the standards d, carrying suitable shovels, H.
The beam G being pivoted as hereinbefore described the shovels H maybe raised or lowered at will by means of the lever I, which is pivoted at its lower end to the tongue D. This lever is also pivoted to a longitudinal rod, J, which has its ends pivoted to brackets e,upon thetransverse pivoted bar G, and a similar bar, K, pivoted to the rear ends of the side bars, A, which also has arms f and standards g, the latter having attached bifurcated shovels or eoverers L. v
The boXes E, which contain the grain or seed, are provided at their bottom with discharge-openings l1, under which is arranged a transverse feed-slide, M, having openings i, corresponding in size and shape to the openings in the feed-boxes, said slide having a lever, N, by which means the slide can be held stationary, so that no corn will be dropped while turning or moving the machine about when not in use. The slide M is operated by means ofcam-blocks k,workingn contact with theinclined en d Z ofthe slide, aspring, m, bearing against the opposite end of the slide,forc ing it back to its former position after being acted upon by the cam-blocks. The slide M, immediately under the opening therein, has rigidly secured to it the upper ends of rubber or other flexible tubes, P, the opposite or lower ends of said tubes being secured to the standards d in the rear of the shovels H. To facilitate their attachment at this point, the standards are preferably grooved to form seats for the ends of the tubes, the same moving with the slide and also with the shovels when raised or lowered, the latter being set far enough apart in the construction ot' the machine'to make room between them equal to the distance required by the farmer between two rows of corn.
' As the machine is drawn across the field and the furrows are being made by the shovels H, and the slide M operated by the cam-blocks k, on one of the wheels C, the corn drops from the boxes E, through the openings h z', down through the tubes P into the furrows behind the shovels, and is covered by the bifur-l cated shovels L as the machine moves along.
The lever I is brought in use when it is desired to elevate the shovels H L, and after the first row is made,a guide, R, may be connected to the machine, the upright portion thereof passing along over the last row planted, and is so adjusted as to mark the ground the distance required between the rows from the furrowing-shovelneXt to it.
The width the hills in the row are to be made apart is governed and regulated by the sizeof the driving-wheel and the position in which the cam-blocks are placed.
vWhen it is desired to make a corn-plow of the machine,the two back or covering shovels are moved forward and attached to the axle and set far enough on the inside of the furrow- IOO ing-shovels, so that the added shovels, in connection therewith, may pass on opposite sides of the corn-rows.
It is especially desirable that the cam-blocks on the driving-wheels should be adjustable,so as to change their position and action on the feedslide to adapt the machine to the width the hillsin the row are to be made apart. To;
accomplish this, any suitable means may be employedsuch as clamps, setscrews, Aor bolts-and, if preferred, solid truck-wheels may be used in place of the spoke-Wheels, as shown. lThe spring m may be connected to the seed-box by slot and set-screw, so that the point of attachment to its lower end may be lengthened or shortened to regulate the tension thereof, and its consequent action on the slide. i
Having now fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. Aframe carrying shovels, with means for elevating` them, a guide connected to the frame, and fseed-boxes connected to the axle by metal braces, in combination with a feedslide operated by canrblocks on one of the drive-wheels, and iexible discharge-tubes for the seed, said tubes being rigidly secured to the slide and to the standards carrying the furrowshovels, substantially as and for the lpurpose described.
2. A frame carrying shovels, with means for raising and lowering them, and seed-boxes snpported over the axle of the machine by bracket, in combination with aseed-slide, and camblocks adj ustably connected to one of the drivewheels, and a spring connected to the end of one of the seed-boxes for acting on the slide, and flexible tubes for the discharge of the seed connected to the slide and moving with 4o it and also to the standards of the furrowshovels, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
In testimony that I claim the above I have hereunto subscribed my name in the presence 45 of two witnesses.
JOSEPH BOLLINGER.
