HAY PRESS.
No. 369,837. Patented Sept. 13, 1887..
I ll m lllll i il mlll" 'niiii WILLIAM HoDoEs BRYANT,
i ATENT Fries.
OF GLARKSVILLE, TEXAS.
HAY-PRESS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 369,837, dated September 13, 1887.
Application filed June 13, 1887.
To whom, it may concern:
Be it known that 1, WILLIAM HODGES BRYANT, a citizen of the United States, residing at Olarksville,in the county of Red River and State of Texas, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Hay-Presses, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvements in baling-presses; andit consists in certain novel features hereinafter described and claimed.
In the accompanying drawings, which fully illustrate my invention, Figure l is a central vertical longitudinal section of my improved press. Fig. 2 is a horizontal longitudinal section on line 3 y of Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a detail perspective view of one of the partitionblocks; and Fig. 4. is a cross-section on the line m m, Fig. 2. Fig. 5 is a detail of the stopblock.
Referring to the drawings by letter, A designates the press fraine, composed of the longitudinal bars a and the cross-beams a, which are securely fastened together by the bolts 0.
B designates the floor or base of the press, secured upon the lower cross-beams a and provided with the guide bars or flanges b at its side edges, which extend from about its middle to the rear end of the press, as shown.
0 designates the roof of the press, secured to the under sides of the upper crossbars, a, and provided with guide-flanges 0, similar to the guide-flanges b on the floor B. The roof 0 is also provided with a central feed-opening, 0', through which the hay or cotton is placed in the press.
On each side of the press I provide a vertical wall, D, which is in the same vertical plane as the opening 0, and serves to hold the loose hay or cotton within the press. On the inner opposing sides of these walls D, l secure two or more stop blocks, E. These retainers comprise the plates 0, secured in recesses in the sides of the walls, and having the integral longitudinal offsets e projecting centrally from their inner faces. These offsets e have their front edges arranged at right angles to the plate 6, and their rear edges form an acute angle with said plates and intersect the front edges.
F designates the plunger,which is provided in its side edges with the recesses f, which Serial No. 241,196. (No model.)
engage the offsets e, and thereby guide the plunger so that the pressure exerted thereon will be distributed equally upon the entire quantity of hay or cotton being acted on. These offsets also serve to prevent the partition-blocks tipping or wabbling by engaging the recesses in the edges of the same, and also aid the plunger in compressing the hay by retarding the movement thereof by reason of its frictional contact thereagainst. To the front or outer side of the plunger I pivotally secure the end of a pitman, G, the opposite end of which is pivotally secured to the end of the operating-lever H. This operatinglever H is fulcrumed upon a bolt, I, in the front end of the press, and its free end may be provided with a whiffletree or other device for hitching a draft-animal thereto.
J designates one of the partition blocks which are used to separate the bales before they are expelled from the press. These partition-blocks are provided with the recesses j in their edges, which permit their passing the retainers E, and are provided with the grooves j in their front and rear sides, which allow the baling wire to be passed around the bale without first removing the blocks.
The operation of my invention will be readily understood. The hay is placed in the press through the feed-opening 0 between the plunger and a head-block previously placed in the press. The operating-lever is now swung to one side, so as to force the plunger inward, thereby compressing the hay and driving it toward the rear end of the box.' A partition-block is then passed through the feedopening, more hay fed in,and the former operation repeated.
Having thus described-my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, 1s-
1. In a baling-press, the combination, with the side walls, of the stop-blocks comprising the plates e, secured in recesses in the same, and the offsets 6, formed integrally with the said plates, the plunger having recesses in its sides which engage said offsets,the operatinglever, and the pitman connecting the latter to the plunger, substantially as specified.
2. The combination, with the press frame having the feed-opening 0 in its top, and the side walls, of the stop-blocks rigidly secured to the side walls in the vertical planes of the feed-opening, the plunger having recesses in its sides conforming to the outline of the stopblocks and engaging the same, the operatinglever, and the pitman connecting the plunger and the lever, substantially as set forth.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own I have hereto aflixed my signaturein presence of two witnesses.
WILLIAM HODGES BRYANT.
