MANURE CARRYING MACHINE.
N0. 351,410. Patented 0013.26, 1886.
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
CHARLES STUBBS, OF SPIGELAND, INDIANA.
MANURE-CARRYING MACHINE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 351,410, dated October 26,1886.
Application filed September 7, i885. Serial No. 176,429.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, CHARLES STUBBS, a citizen of the United States, residing at Spiceland, in the county of Henry and State of Indiana, have invented a new and useful Manure-Garrying Machine, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to machines for loading, carrying, and discharging barn-yard and other manures, in which a tined scoop working in vertical slots and connected with a Windlass by means of chains, and operated for change of position by the levers and appliances hereinafter described, is made to enter into the manure as a fork, and when loaded takes up and holds the manure for carrying until ready to be discharged.
The object of my invention is to furnish an easy, rapid, and eflicient means for loading and carrying coarse, fine, and semi-liquid fertilizers from deposits about barns or elsewhere to the field 01 place for use, and for unloading and discharging the same without rehandling. I attain these objects by the mechanism illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is a perspective view of the entire machine. Fig. 2 is a view of the scoop attachment for lifting and carrying fine or semifluid material.
Similarletters refer to similar parts throughout the several views.
A B are two wheels connected by the axle G (l C 0* 0 This axle is composed of two horizontal spindles, G one at each end, two upright arms, 0 0*, and a transverse bar, 0, all being composed of one piece and put in shape by bending at two right angles near each end-one angle to form the spindle and one angle connecting the upright and transverse parts. To each upright of the axle is attached by any suitable method two parallel bars, EE, separated, except at the ends where they are united, so as to form two slots, F F. In the upper end of each pair of these slotbars works a horizontal Windlass-axle, G, connecting the two slotted bars. To the axle G are attached immovably three pawl-ratchets, H H H, one near each end and one near the center. To it are also attached two chains, I I, one near each end of said axle.
(Model) To the spindles O O are fastened by loops two bars, J J, projecting forward and inward, on the upper side of which is fastened a platform, K. The said bars are united at the forward ends, so as to serve as a coupling to connect the fore wheels with the rest of the machine. The forewheels, L L, are connected by an axle, to which a tongue or shafts are attached for hitching a team to the machine. At a suitable point on the bars J J, near the back edge of the platform K, are placed two uprights, M M, one on each bar, which, rising to a suitable height, are bent at right angles and form arms M M which project backward horizontally and connect to the slot-bars. These two uprights, at'a suitable distance from the upper ends, support and are connected by a transverse horizontal rod, P, which turns upon its axis in holes in the uprights M M. Near each end of this bar are attached pawls O O, which engage with the ratchets H H; also to this bar is attached a handle, 1?, for operating the pawls and turning the rod P.
The lifter and carrier R consists of any desired number of curved tines, Q Q Q Q Q, &c., united by and fastened to cross-bars R R From the end of each cross-bar projects forward a brace, those at each end of the machine being united at their forward ends, so as to form two sides of a triangle. To and through the forward end or apex of the triangle extends a horizontal rod, S, the ends of which work in the slots FF. A nut or head is placed on each end of this rod to keep it in place within the slots as to lateral motion. Braces at suitable intervals also extend from the bars R R to the bar S, to support and strengthen the carrier. To one of these braces is attached the lifter T, by which the operator can raise or lower the carrier at will.
To the bar S, near each end, are attached the lower ends of the chains 11. The upper ends of these chains are fastened to the windlass-axle G, as before described. A slotted pawl-carrier, U, is attached by loops on the free ends of each of its arms to the Windlassaxle G, one loop on each side of the ratchetwheel H,which is vertical to and between the arms of U. To the upper surface of this pawl-bearer, below the union of the two arms of the same, is attached bya hinged joint the 2 i 351,41Lo
pawl V. The forward end of the pawl-bearer forms a handle, which lies on top of the crossbar P when the pawl V is in place and, engages with the ratchet-wheel H and when the pawls 5 O O engage with the ratchets H H, by lifting the pawl-bearer U, the Windlass-axle G is revolved, and thechains I I are coiled about it, and thereby shortened, and the lower part or forward ends of the tines of the carrier are lifted, the rod S sliding upward in the slots F F. The pawls O O and ratchets H H retain it in position, and by repeated liftings on the pawl-bearerU the carrier is lifted to the required position. The back part of the carrier 15. is further sustained in position by the notched bar W, with notches X X X. This bar is attached to the cross-bar R of the carrier, and has ahandle, Y, at its forward end. As the lifter is raised one of the notches X X X receives the axle G and holds the rear end of the carrier stationary at the height determined by the position of the notch.
To load the carrier, place the tinesin position so that the points shall rest slightly below the horizontal, at or near'the ground, with notched barWengaging with axle G at the proper notch, and with pawls O O and V in place, so as to engage with their respective ratchets. pulling the machine forward over the manure to be lifted and carried, the tines penetrate and load the material into the carrier in a manner similar to the loading of a scoop. When full, lift upon the pawl-bearer U, turning the axle G and winding up the carrier, as already described. To discharge the load from the carrier, the pawls O O V are disengaged, and the forward part of the carrier is depressed by its own weight, or by lifting upon the handle Y.
The team If the material to be loaded and carried is semi-fluid or too fine to be retainedby the tines, 0 the scoop attachment Z is used by bolting it p to the carrier, the tines slipping into the pockets on the lower side of the scoop. This converts the carrier into a scoop, and is operated as above described.
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. The combination, in a manure-carrier, of the lifter and carrier R, having its tines Q Q Q Q Q, cross-bars It R, braces, and horizontal rod S, with wheels A B L L, the axle with its spindles G G, uprights G 0*, and transverse bar 0", the two parallel separated bars E E, forming slots 1 F, pawls O O V, pawl-bearer U, chains I I,windlass-axle G,ratchets H H H, 5 rod P, lifters T and Y, notched bar IV, the bars J J, and uprights M M, with arms M M all substantially as and for thepurposes set forth.
2. The combination, in amanure-carrier, of the carrier R, the two parallel separated bars E E,forming slots F F, Windlass-axle G, pawls O O V, ratchets H H H",-pawl-bearer U, chains I I, scoop Z, and notched bar W, substantially as and for the purposes set forth.
3. The combination, in a manure-carrier, of the tined carrier R, the two parallel separated bars E E, forming slots F F, platform K, crossbars S and P, notched bar W, axles O and G, pawls O O V, pawl-bearer U, ratchets H H H, andchains I I, substantially as and for the purposes set forth. I
