HENRY FIENE AND JACOB KROENOKE, OF CONCORDIA, MISSOURI.
SEED-PLANTER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 486,669, dated November 22, 1892.
Application led September 29, 1892. Serial No. 447,343. (No model.)
To all whom, it may concern:
Be it known that we, HENRY FIENE and JACOB E. KRoENcKE, of Concordia, La Fa yette county, Missouri, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Seed-Planters, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part hereof.
Our invention relates to corn-planters of the ordinary type, wherein a frame carrying two seed-boxes, one at each end of the frame, provided with seed-spouts, and runners in ad- Vance of the seed-spouts open the furrows for the reception of the seed, which is either dropped by hand-actuated valves on the Inachine or by means of a check-wire of wellknown construction.
The object of our invention is to provide machines of this type with an improved attachment to be used especially when the soil is hard or when the exigenoies of the season require unusually-deep planting; and the improvement consists in securing to the frame of a planter of ordinary construction having seed-box, spout, and runner provided with seed-dropping mechanism a furrow-opening or small listing plow adj ustably secured and supported upon the forward end of the frame in a novel manner in advance of the runner, which may be placed at any required depth, for the purpose specied.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure l is a side elevation of a corn-planter with our improvements attached. Fig. 2 is a perspective detail, enlarged, of the furrow-opening plow-standard. Fig. 3 is a similar view of the mold-boards thereof. Fig. 4 is a perspective of a bracket secured to the forward end of the frame to receive the standard. Fig. 5 is a brace-rod for connecting the lower end of the standard with the forward cross-bar of the frame.
The planter-frame A, of usual construction, mounted upon wheels B, having an intermediate cross-bar C for supporting the seed-boxes and seed-tubes, and a forward cross-bar D, to which the forward ends of the runners E, of usual well-known form, are attached. To the forward end of the longitudinal frame-brace E is secured our improved attachment, comprising a bracket F, having side flanges f with a series of bolt-holesf passing through them, and horizontal rearwardly-projecting plate f2, laterally extended, and having bolt-holes f3, through which bolts f4 are passed and are also passed through the forward end of the frame-brace to securely hold the bracket upon it.
The furrow-opening plow-standard G, also perforated correspondingly at g with the flanges of the bracket, snugly fits between said flanges and may be raised and lowered longitudinally therein and held at any .required point of elevation by bolts passing through the bracket-anges and through the standard and is spread at its lower end and perforated at g to receive the bolts or rivets which secure it to the double mold-boards G G. The lower end of the standard is also bored with bolt-holes r2, and a curved bracerod I-I, bolted securely at its upper end at h to the cross-bar D of the machine may be secured to any one of the series of holes in the lower end of the standard to admit of the adj ustment of the brace upon the standard correspondingly with the adjustment ofthe standard in the bracket.
By the above-described means the furrowopening or listing plow may be readily attached securely or adjusted upon the frame of any ordinary corn -planter or removed therefrom when not required to be used and the opening furrow may be made of any required depth. For listing in hard ground or for deep subsoil plowing and planting at a single operation, the usual furrow-Opening runner, being still retained upon the planter, following closely behind the opening-plow, keeps the furrow clear until the seed is deposited in the bottom of the furrow. The runner, extending forwardly' and upwardly and bolted at its forward end to the forward cross-bar D, together with the brace H and standard G, provides a solid connection,which will permit hard ground or even sod-ground to be planted in the manner of listing with a check-row corn-planter.
We' are aware that it is old to place a double-moldboard plow in advance of the graindelivering spout of a corn-planter and that listing-plows with grain-receptacles and fur- IOO row-openers and seed-spouts have heretofore been combined, and do not broadly claim said combination of parts.
Having described our invention, we claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- 1. A corn-planter comprising a seed-receptacle, seed-spout, runner, furrow-opener secured at its forward upturned end tothe brace cross-bar, a bracket also bolted to the frame in advance of the runner, a furrowopening plow-standard secured between the side flanges of the bracket, and a brace connecting the lower end of said standard with the forward end of the runner and the forward cross-brace, substantially as described.
2. A corn-planter comprising the planterframe, the seed-box, the seed-spout, furrowopening runner, and a donble-inold-board furi'owbpening,r plow havingr a standard secured between the side plates f of a bracket F, and
