MOSES SPOFFORD, OF GEORGETOWN, MASSACHUSETTS.
IMPROVEMENT IN MACHINES FOR HO EING LAND.
S eeiiieation formin part of Letters Patent No. 5 .290, dated Se tember 11 1847.
P a a P To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, MosEs SPoFFonD, of Georgetown, in the county of Essex and State of Massachusetts, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Machinery for Hoeing Land; and I do hereby declarethat the same is fully described and represented in the following specification and accompanying drawings, letters, figures, and references thereof.
Of said drawings, Figure 1 represents a top view of my rotary booing-machine. Fig. 2 is a side elevation, and Fig. 3 is a front end elevation, of the same.
In said figures, A denotes a frame mounted on wheels B B, which are fixed to a horizontal shaft, 0. Said frame has handles D D, to which the husbandman applies his hands to operate or press forward the machine in amanner similar to that by which he would a common wheelbarrow. On said shaft 0 are two pulleys, E F, arranged as seen in Fig. 1, one ofthe same beingrepresented in Fig. 2 by dotted lines. From and around these pulleys belts or bands G H pass respectively to and around smaller pulleys, I K, aftixed upon the sides of two cylinders, M N, arranged upon afixed horizontal shaft, 0, which extends across the front part ofthe frame A. Each of the said cylinders has any suitable number of hoes, P P, &c., affixed radially in and projecting from it, as seen in the drawings.
Q and R are small wheels applied to the front of the frame A by means of screw-shanks S S, which are screwed into the frame. By means of said screws the wheels may be adjusted in such manner as to cause the hoes to penetrate the soil to any required depth.
The shaft 0 has two rods, T T, projecting downward from it between the two cylinders M N, there being one of said rods to each or the cylinders. Each of the rods is placed as near to its cylinder as possible, and hasa crosspiece, V, affixed to its lower end, as seen in Fig. 4, which denotes a side view of one of the rods and cross-pieces. The rod and cross-piece is exhibited in Fig. 2 in part by dotted lines. The object of the cross-pieces is to rest upon the soil or sods and hold them down to some extent while the hoes are in action upon them. The front rollers also aid in accomplishing a similar effect.
When the machine is moved forward the wheels B B will rotate, and through the pulleys E F and bands G H and pulleys I K will impart a rotary motion to the cylinders and hoes. As the latter revolve they strike the earth and break it up and hoe it somewhat in the same manner in which a common gardenhoe operates on it. p I
What I claim as my invention is r The combination of one or more of the crosspieces U V and their rods or other equivalents
