BEDDlNc-PLOW.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 506,429, dated October 10, 1893. Application iiled December 20, 1892. Serial No. 455.835. (No model.)
To @ZZ whom it may concern.-
lSe it known that MILTON T. HANCOCK, a cltizen of the United States, residing at Shreveport, in the parish of Caddo. and State of Louisiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Bedding-Flows, of which the following is a specification.
The principal object of my present invention 1s to produce a plow, by means of which the operation known as bedding can be accomplished, making a complete bed for every passage of the plow. In extremely dry or extremely wet soils, particularly among gardeners, it is necessary to form such beds to obtain the best results, and they have heretofore been usually obtained by the use of a single -plow of the common sort, passing back and forth in reverse directions, upon the opposite sides of a narrow strip equal to the size of the complete bed, and such beds are usually of a size that requires four passages of the plow. ,l My improved plow usually consists of four disks, two upon each side of the center, with a small plowshare extending down between the nearest ones of the two sets in the center, and it is provided with various means of adjustment, all as will be hereinafter more particularly described and claimed.
Referring to the accompanying drawings, which-are made a part hereof, and on which similar.` letters of reference indicate similar parts, Figure l is a top or plan view of a plow embodying my said invention, with the seat broken away; Fig. 2 a central sectional view, as seen when looking upwardly from the dotted line 2 2 in Fig. l, and Fig. 3 a detail sectional view, on an enlarged scale, on the dotted line 3 3 in Fig. l.
In said drawings the portions marked A represent the axle of the plow; B the tongue;
C the plow-beams; D the plowing disks, and
E the small plowshare extending down between the central disks. The axle A should be squared at the center to prevent it from turning in its fastenings, and is secured to the tongue and plow-beams by clevis-bolts A As shown most plainly in Fig. l, there is a series of holes provided,.so that the position of the axle may be varied upon said tongue and plow-beams.
Upon the ends of the axle are crank-shaped castings A2 which embody the spindles for the wheels A3. These castings are sleeved upon the ends of the axle, and are provided with a series of holes, as shown in Fig. l, and the axle has at each end a corresponding hole, so that the castings and axle can be varied in their relative positions by means of pins passing through the holes therein, and thus the relative height of the plowing disks to the carrying wheels is determined. In Fig. 2 the plowing disks are shown as raised by this means, so that they are free from the ground, and in position for travel or transportation from place to place. When the operation of plowing is to be commenced, this position would be shifted so that the plowing disks would extend below the lower edges of the carrying wh eels.
The tongue B is of an ordinary form and construction. It carries the seat B and the bar to which the plowshare E is attached, as is shown most plainly in Fig. 2.
The plow-beams C are secured to the tongue at the front end, and to the axle in the center, and extend back to far enough behind said axle for the convenient arrangement of the plowing disks. They are adapted to be adj usted laterally on theaxle. At their front ends blocks c are interposed between them and the head and nut of the bolt O. In adj usting the plow-beams laterally, these blocks would be transposed to between the plowbeams and the tongue, while the clevis-bolts A would simply need to be loosened enough to permit them to slip on the axle, and retightened when the adjustment was completed.
The plowing disksD are not in themselves peculiar to mypresent invention. They'are, however, given a peculiar mounting to adapt them to the present use. AbearingD is provided for each pair which is securely bolted to the rear end of the corresponding plowbeam. One of the plowing disks has a spindle secured thereto which passes through and a little beyond said bearing. The other disk has simply a hole for the bolt D2. Washers d are provided and placed upon either or both sides of the second plowing disk, as shown inv Fig. 3, and these washers may be changed from side to side, and the plowing disks thus adjusted nearer to each other, or farther Ico apart, as may be required by the work to be done. The relative positions of the two sets of plowing disks are determined by the adjustment of the plow-beams, as has just been described.
plowing disks themselves extend, and this splits and scatters this ridge, leaving the bottorn of the trench substantially level. Said plow-share is mounted upon a bar E which r a tongue, two plow-beams, one arranged on is secured to the rear end of the tongue B, preferably by its clevis-bolt A' which secures it to the axle.
Having thus fully described mysaid invention,what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is*
1. The combination, in a plow, of the axle, thecarryin g wheels thereon, the plow-beams', disksV secured! to the rear ends of said plowbeams in position to turn their furrow's in opposite directions, and means whereby the same may be adjusted to the required work, substantially as set forth.
2. The combination, in a bedding plow, of
the axle, carrying wheels thereon, crankshaped devices connecting said axle and said y carrying wheels, means whereby they may be adj usted and the relative heights of the plowing disks and carrying wheels thus determined, plow beams mounted on said axles, and two sets of plowing disks mounted o n said plow beams and arranged to turn their furrows in opposite directions, substantially as set forth.
3. The combination, in a bedding plow, of
' the axle, the carrying wheels thereon, the plow beams secured to said axle, and plowing disks arranged in pairs or sets and independently mounted upon said plow beams, the disks of each pair being: independently adjustable to and from each other, the whole being arranged and operating substantially as set forth. 4
4. The combination', in a' plow, of an axle,
each sideV of` thev tongue, mea-ns whereby' the plow-beams may be adj usted laterally and secured in adj usted"position,means wherebythfe plow beams may be' adjusted longitudinally across the axle andsecured` iin adjustedp'osi- ,1 tion, plowing disks' secured upon the rear ends ofthe plow-beams, and a plow-share" ex- ;tending down between the plowing disks,\all substantially as'andfor thepurposesset'forth. r In witness whereof I have'hereunto setmy vhand and seal, at Indianapolis, Indiana, this 12th day ofDecem'ber, A. D'. 1892.
