UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
IMPROVEMENT IN HARVESTERS.
Speciiication forming part of Letters Patent No. 43,361, dated June 28, 1864.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, UHARLEsP.W1NG, ot Fayetteville, in the county of Onondaga and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Harvesting-Machines; and I do hereby declarethe following to be a full and exact description ofthe same, reference being had to the accompanyingdrawings, making part of this specification, in which.-
Figurel is aperspective view of my improved harvester, looking from the rear. Fig. 2 is a rear end elevation of the same.
Similar letters ot' reference indicate corresponding parts in the two figures.
The object of this invention is to so construct `a durable and substantial machine as to combine within it the advantages of costly and elaborate harvesters, and at the same time effeet such simplicity of parts and limited expense ot' construction as will adapt it to come within the reach ot' those farmers who have heretofore been debarred from possessing a first-class implement on account ot' the'expense incurred in purchasing the same.
In order that others skilled' in the art toV which my invention appertains may be enabled to fully understand and use the same, I will proceed to describe its construction and operation.
In the accompanying drawings, A may represent a traction-wheel mounted upon an axle, B, which projects from and constitutes an eX- tension ofa beam orframe, B, the form of which is clearly shownin the drawings. To the other end ot' the beam B is jointed the cutting apparatus D by means ot' pivots d. in the shoe E.
F, represents a bar or lever attached to the shoe E and occupying such position as to be within convenient reach of the driver. This bar F is provided with pins ff, which work respectively on opposite sides ot' an oblique arm, G. By turning this bar F in an inward or outward direction the person riving the machine is enabled to raise either end of the cutting apparatus for the purpose of avoiding contact with obstructions when the machine is used as a mower; and when the machine is to be employed for reaping grain an adjustable pin. g, inserted in the arm G serves to rctain the'bar F in any position in which it may be placed, and thereby support the cutting apparatus D at anydesired height.
C represents the pole or tongue of the machine, which passes through a suitable bearing in the beam B, and said tongue C being connected with the beam B by braces C the two together form the main frame oi' the machine. Ihe pole G projects through the beam B in a backward direction, so as to provide a support for the rakeris seat H, and to said pole Care also secured the drivers seat L, the rakestandardl M, the whiffletree S, and the arm G.
When the bar Fis turned outward, either for the purpose ofraising the cutting apparatus D or converting the machine from a mower to a reaper, the beam B is allowed to turn freely on the pole U, said pole remaining in a stationary condition, and thus preserving the seats H and L, whiietree S, and reel-standard M in their proper positions.
The wheel A is formed with a convex rim or periphery, so as to adapt it to readily conform to the vibratory movement imparted to the beam B through the medium ot' the bar F and arm G, and this convexity ot' the periphery of the wheel A also provides a regular and effectual traction-surface in all posit-ions of the beam B.
The red lines in Fig. 2 represent the position which the various parts assume when the shoe E is elevated to pass over an obstacle.
When the cutting apparatus is elevated so as to adapt the machine to the purpose of a harvester the outer end thereot' may be supported by a caster-wheel in customary' man ner. The cutter-barof this machine may be reciprocated bythe traction-wheel through the medium ot' the ordinary gear and pinion.
The machine is simple in all its parts, and from the .limited num ber and peculiar construction of its members is capable ot' being manufactured at little cost, and' provides an accessible and most useful implement for the farmer.
- Having th us described myinvention,the'fol lowing is what I claim as new therein and desire to secure by Letters Patent:
1. The baror lever F, in combination with the arm G and pin g, for elevating and lowering the cutting apparatus, or retaining it in a fixed elevated position or at any desired angle, substantially in the manner and for the purpose explained. p
2. In combination with the above, the traction-wheel A, formed with a convex rim or .periphery for the purpose of presenting an effeetual traction-surface when the cutting apparatus is elevated, as set forth.
3. The vibratory beam B, employed in connection with the pole or tongue C, in the man. 11er described, so as to preserve the proper position of the rakers seat H, drivers seat L,
reel-standard M, and Whifletree S when the cutting apparatus is elevated by the bar F, as set forth.
The above specification of my improved harvestin g-m achine signed this 18th day of March, 1864.
