SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 435,514, dated September 2, 1890.
Application filed March 24, 1890.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, JOSEPH W. NAPLES, a citizen of the UnitedStates, residing at Highlands,'in the county of Arapahoe and State of Colorado, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Cultivators; and I do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the figures of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
My invention relates to a new and improved form and construction of cultivator of the class designed more particularly for the cultivation of corn, beets, potatoes, &c., and in the many and varied relations of farm-work wherein such implements are employed; and the object of my invention is to provide a cultivator of the class stated which shall possess many and superior advantages over those now in use, among which advantages is that of enabling the farmer, with the addition of one more horse, to accomplish twice the amount of work done in the same time by those of ordinary construction.
The further object of my invention is to provide a cultivator which may be readily, easily, and quickly changed from the double form, as more fully hereinafter described, to the form or style now in common use, and also to produce a device of the class stated which shall be of comparatively simple construction, economical in cost, reliable and durable in use, easily operated, efiective, and efficient for the purpose intended.
To these ends my invention consists in the features, arrangements, and combinations more particularly hereinafter described and claimed. I
In the drawings is illustrated an embodiment of my invention, wherein- Figure 1 is a top or' birds-eye view of the device looking from toward the front end thereof; Fig. 2, a rear end view of the device; Fig. 3, an elevation of one of my improved plows, portions of the beams and handle being broken away..
Reference being made to the accompanying drawings, the reference=numeral 2 designates a suitable axle mounted upon wheels 31 31.
the tongues.
Serial No. 345,146. (No model.)
able distance from axle 2, pieces 40 4.0, to which is pivotally secured any suitable three-horse evener, the one herein shown consisting of the two horizontal bars 13 13, each pivoted to the outer extremity of a piece 40, so that the draft may be equally divided and each horse perform his just share of the work to be done. To the outer extremity of each bar 13, and to the two inner extremities thereof, is hinged, at 14, the depending bars 11, to which are secured the singletrees 15, said bars extending to or near the horizontal plane of the horizontal portions of axle 2. To the lower ex-- tremity of depending bars 11 are hinged suitable bars or rods, which extend backward and are secured to axle 2 in any suitable manner.
To the forward extremities of tongues or shafts 5 is secured inany suitable manner, as by passing said tongues through suitable rings 16, the three-horse neck-yoke used in connection with my improved cultivator, said neck-yoke consisting of a main piece 17, provided with rings 16, adapted for the reception of the extremities of the tongues 5. To the extremities of piece 17 are hinged or pivotally secured, at 18, the two bars 19, hinges 18 being so located on bars 19 that each horse shall bear his just portion of the weight of Rings 20 on the extremities of pieces or bars 19 are provided for the reception of the breast-straps of the harness.
Pivotally secured to the three horizontal portions of axle 2 are the three blocks 3, to the two outside ones of which are pivotally secured, so as to give free and easy movement thereto, shovel-plows,such as are in ordinary use, those herein shown consisting of beams 23, suitably secured together at 28, pivoted to the block 3 at 6, provided with suitable handles 21 and shovels 41.
To the middle portion 8 of axle 2 is loosely ICO secured the block 3, so as to move freely thereon, said block being fashioned U shape in contour, so as to permit of the securement of rod 9 of the evener to part 8 of the axle.
To block or clevis 3 is pivot'ally secured, at 6,a plow or set of shovels, which are designed to perform the work of two ordinary plows, or, in other words, to throw dirt to two rows at the same time. This plow consists of the two fixed or stationary beams 25, suitably secured together at 29, and provided with a handle 21. To each of said beams25 is flexibly secured, at 30, (see'Figs. 1 and 3,) the ad justable beams 23.
The reference-numerals 26 26 designate suitable bars secured to beams 25 and provided with apertures 27, through which pins are inserted into corresponding apertures in beams 23, thereby affording a means of regulating the width of the strip of land to be turned or plowed by said middle plow, this being regulated according to the distance apart of the rows between which said plows are to pass.
The reference-nu1neral22 designates a suitable bar, brace, or stay secured to thehandle 21 of the middle plow and to a handle on either of the other plows, according as convenience may dictate, the object of this bar 22 being to give the operator a full and easy control of the three plows, two of which are governed by one hand and the remaining plow by the other hand.
From the description hereinbefore given of the mechanism of my improved cultivator its use and operation will be readily understood, it being so arranged that one man with three horses may perform twice the work that can be done by an ordinary two-plow outfit.
In the manufacture of my improved device the axle 2 is made in three separate and distinct pieces, said pieces being suitably united at 45, as by being securely bolted to tongues 5, or in any manner desired.
When it is desired to transform my threehorse cultivator into an ordinary two-horse machine, the axle is disjointed at 45 and the middle section, with its attached plow and braces, and also the three-horse evener, the three-horse neck-yoke, and one of the tongues or shafts, removed. The remaining parts are then reassembled and provided with a twohorse evener and neck-yoke, forming the ordinary two-horse walking-cultivator.
To convert mytwo-horse cultivator into a three-horse machine, the converse of these directions must be followed.
Having thus described my invention, what I. claim is- The combination, with a three-horse cultivator provided with the shafts 5 5, of athreehorse neck-yoke consisting of a bar 17, suitably secured to the extremities of the shafts, and two bars 19, each suitably hinged to bar 17 at such a point upon the bars 19 that each horse shall bear his just proportion of the weight of the shafts, the extremities of bars 19 being provided with suitable breast-strap rings, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
JOSEPH W. NAPLES.
