UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
BENJAMIN LUKENS, OF
PENDLETON, INDIANA.
FEED-CUTTER.
GPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 367,050, dated July 26, 1887.
Application filed March 28, 1887.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, BENJAMIN LUKENS, a citizen of the United States, residing at Pendleton, in the county of Madison, State of Indiana, have invented certain new. and useful Improvements in Feed-Cutters, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.
The object of this invention is to provide a machine for cutting or slicing ears of corn, with ornithout their husks, into suitable sizes for feeding purposes, and although the ma clnnc is especially adapted for this purpose, still it may be used for cutting vegetables, fruit, &c., into predetermined sizes for different purposes.
Further objects and advantages of the invention will be hereinafter specified, and the novel features thereof specifically pointed out in the claims.
Referring to the drawings, Figure 1 is a side elevation of a machine constructed in accord ance with my invention. Figs. 2and3 arcplans of the bottom and top castings, respectively,
is a sectional detail showing the points of contact of the knives or cutters and the object being cut and the means for regulating the size or thickness of the slices. Fig. 5 is a side elevation of the slice gaging and discharging devices.
Like letters of reference indicate like parts in all the figures.
In this instance the base is hollow and con sists of two annular castings, A A,one mounted upon the other, and joined together by means of bolts A passing through binding cars or clips A", formed on the exterior of said castings. The base thus formed is mounted upon a suitable standard, Y. Mounted upon the base, at one side thereof and bolted thereto, is ayoke, B, at the upper end of which are formed bearings B for the shaft 0, having at its outer end a crank, O, and at its opposite end abevct gear, 0.
The castings A'A are centrally bored, as at D, to the upper end of which is fixed a bevelgear, D, meshing with the gear 0 A boss, D", perforated and provided with an adjusting spindle D, and a temper-screw, D, mounted Serial No. 232,744. (No model.)
' in a curved bracket, D", upon the top of the one side thereof are oppositely-arranged fixed blades A Above the opening A is a hopper, A and below the opening A is a deliveryspout, A.
It will now be seen that objects to be cut or sliced may be dropped in the hopper A, when, by revolving the crank G, the gear 0 will be rotated, which will impart motion to the gear D, spindle D, and balancewheel E, carrying the knife E, whereby said knife will be brought into contact with the object to be cut, and by reason of the shcarblade of said knife E the object will be sliced, the slices dropping through the opening A" into the delivery-spout A and into any suitable receptacle placed thereunder.
By reason of the thickness of the fixed blade A slices cut from the object are prevented from being carried back of said blades into the annular castings, and thus retarding the operation of the machine.
, Referring to Figs. 4 and 5 of the drawings, which are details showing devices employed for gaging the slice and delivering the same to the deliveryspout, F represents a. bracket, pivoted to (as at F) and depending-from the lower casting, A, and passing through the delivery-spout A and having an aperture therein. F represents a gage-rod having a slightlyconcaved head at its top and provided with a slot registering with the aperture in the bracket F, and adjustably connected thereto by means of a set-screw, F A coiled spring, F", normally retains the rod and bracket in a vertical position, and it is evident that said gage may be raised or lowered to and from the cutters thereabove, thus determining the width of the slices to be cut. Furthermore, it will be apparent that,owing to the slight concavity in the head of the rod,the corn or other article resting therein, the jarring caused by, the cutters coming in contact with and passing through the article being sliced will cause the bracket and the gage-rod to swing against the tension of the spring, tilting its top or head, upon which the slice rests after the cut ismade, to the front, and thus deliver the same in the spout A Having described my invention and its op-.
3. The combination of the base A A, perforated, as at'A", with the spindle D, wheel E, knife E, the bracket D temper-screw D, the boss D and the set-screw D", substantially as specified.
4. The combination of the base A A, having openings A* A and fixed knives A With the bracket F, adjustingscrew F, slotted gagerod F, and the rotating knife E, substantially as specified.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
BENJAMIN LUKENS.
