RIDlNG HARROW AND ROLLER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 360,554, dated April 5, 1887.
Application filed November 1, i886. Serial No. $317,694. (No model.)
To aZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ELI W. BENWAY, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at Independence,in the county of Montgomery and'State of Kansas, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Riding Harrows and Rollers, of whichthe following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.
:o This invention relates to improvements in riding harrows and rollers, as patented to myselfand others November 18,1879, No. 221, 767; and it consists in new combinations and appliances, whereby seed is distributed from and planted by the same machine and in one operation. The draft is so applied as not to raise the end of the harrows, and the parts may be separated and distributed so that a simple, effective, and compact machine may 2Q be formed from them.'
In the drawings, Figure lis a perspective View of the machine. Fig. 2 is a plan view of the same; and Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the harrows separated from the rest of the machine. Y
The tongue A of the machine is rigidly secured between the ends of two parallel strips, B, that extend throughout the machine, leaving a slot between. Attached to these strips 3o crosswise are two braces, C, upon which is mounted the platform l). 'Io the under side of the said braces are secured the ends of stirrupshaped braces E, which form bearings for the shaft of the rollers F. Between the 3 5 strips B and forward of the rollers F is swung the handlever G. The said lever is provided with two rings, G' and G2, one upon the end and the other upon the forward side, an equal distance from the pivot upon which the said 4o lever is swung. The lever is provided upon the side with a pawi, and upon the strips to one side of the lever is attached a ratchet, H. In front of the said lever G is placed the pulley I, and at the extremity of the braces B is 4 5 the pulley K.
The harrows L L are formed of strips placed at an angle, provided with teeth, and braced, substantially as shown. These harrows are of diderent sizes, the smaller fitting between the 5o long legs of the larger. The largeris provided with rings placed at suitable positions to receive hooks placed upon the ends of the legs of the smaller. y
Upon the cross-braces M M' are placed the rings NN'. Each pair of rings is connected 55 by loose chains O O', which are provided with hooks O3 0*. These hooks engage rings in the end of the chains P P', respectively. The chain P passes over the pulley I and is attached to the ring G', and the chain P passes 6o over the pulley K and is attached to the ring G2 upon the lever G.
Attached to the rings N, and extending foi` ward to the angle of the large harrow, are the link-rods E, which converge and are joined by the ring R'. To this the team is attached.
Attached to the brace M are hinge-leaves, S, setting between the knuckles of which are the ringed ends of the connecting-rods T, which are connected to the said leaves by 7c means of a rod, S', substantially as shown.
A ring upon the other end of the said rod enfolds the shaft of the rollers, and thus connects the rollers to the harrows.
At one end of the roller-shaft and outside the' bearing is a sprocket-wheel, U, which is geared to a smaller sprocket-wheel, V, by means of a link-chain. The said wheel V is loosely attached to the shaft of the crankwheel W, and movable back and forth against 8o the said cranlcwheel by means of the handlever V', which is pivoted upon the platform of the machine, substantially as shown. The meeting-'faces of the wheels Vand XV are provided with ratchet-teeth, forming a clutch- 8 5 gearing. The crank-wheel is provided with a connecting-rod, w, which engages one arm of a bellcrank lever, X, hinged in the frame of a broadcastseeder, Y, and the remaining arm engaging the slide of said seeder. Ille said 9o broadcast-seeder is mounted upon the parallel strips B, and is of an ordinary construction.
The seat Z is mounted upon the strips B,
'and in position to allow the driver to manipu late the levers G and V'.
The parts of this machine are so connected that they may be separated and the harrows and roller used separately. The harrows may be separated by lifting the hooks upon the ends of the legs of the smaller from the rings rco upon the larger, and the larger harrows may be separated from the roller by drawing the rod S. The hooks Os and O* are released from the rings in the ends of the ehains P P'. To use the harrows thus separated, the larger and smaller are joined by a hook, L2, at the angle of the small harrow engaging a ring in the center of the brace M of the large harrow.
In using the machine the seeder may be operated or not, at the will of the driver, by means of the handle V, throwing the .wheels V and XV into or out of gear.
The distinguishing features of this invention consist in the disposition of the harrows when used separately, the application of the draft so as not to raise the end ofthe harrow, and the seeder mechanism.
hat I claim is- In a harrow such as described7 the combina tion of two harrows having an angular shape, and braced substantially as described, said harrows joined by means of hooks and rings Y at their Haring ends, leaving a space between them, connecting-rods engaging one of said harrows and the shaft of a roller, said roller provided with a sprocket-wheel upon the end of its shaft, seedermeehanism consisting of two sprocket-wheels connected by a link-chain, one of said wheels being connected rigidly to the shaft of the said roller and the otheil movable upon a shaft upon the platform of the machine and controlled by a hand-lever and provided with a ratehettoothed face, a crank-wheel provided with a crank-rod and" having a ratchet-toothed face, a bell-crank at taehed to said Crank-rod and seeder-slide, and a broadeast-seeder, substantially as set forth.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
