M ECHANICAL WHIP.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 558,087, dated April 14, 1896. Application filed October 3, 1895. $eria1 No. 564,489. (N model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that 1, WILLIAM S. MARTIN, a citizen of the United States, residing in the county of Des Moin es and State of Iowa, have invented certain new and useful Improve: ments in Mechanical Whips, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.
The object of my invention is to supply a mechanical whip to be used in connection with horse-powers, and I attain my object by the mechanical means hereinafter described and claimed.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is'a side elevation of my device. Fig. 2 is a vertical section thereof.
The letter A represents the horse-beam of a horse-power, upon which I mount the frame B for supporting the whip, preferably in the form of a tripod. The vertical rod 0 is stepped at 4 and supported in its position by the open ing 5 in the frame 13, through which the rod 0 passes. Mounted on the rod 0 and having vertical play thereon is the tubular cord-carrier 6, terminating at its top in the horizontal arm 7, the cord- carrier having guides 8, 9, and 10, through which the cord 11 is admitted to play. The sleeve 12, which is of sufficient size to move freely over the cord-carrier 6, has the cord 11 attached at its top. The Whipstock 13 is attached at one end of the sleeve 12 by means of the collar 14., having the washer 15 between the collar and the flange 16 at the bottom of sleeve 12. The Whip-stock 13 is sup ported atits outer end by standard 17, in which it may oscillate by any well-known means.
If the whip-stock be made of twisted wire or wood and the standard 17 be a single wire of suitable size attached to the whip-stock by any well-known means for attaching wires, the resiliency of the standard will afford opportunity for all needed movement at the point of juncture of the standard and whipstock.
The whip-lash 18 may be a wooden stick of suitable size projecting from the outer end of the Whip-stock and bent to come in contact with the horses when operated as hereinafter described. The cord-carrier 6 has the slot 6, in which the pin 12 Works, compelling the cord-carrier and the sleeve to move together.
In operation the Whip is applied by pulling the cord 11, thereby raising the sleeve 12. The whip is brought back to place by suddenly letting go the cord 11.
Having described my invention, I claim- In a mechanical whip in combination with a supporting-frame, a rod pivoted at its base and held vertical in the supporting-frame, a guide-carrier mounted upon the vertical rod, a sleeve supported upon the guide-carrier and susceptible of vertical movement thereon, a'
whip-stock having a pivotal support intermediate of the ends and carrying a lash, said stock being attached to the sleeve, and a cord operating in suitable guides upon the guidecarrier and having one end attached to the sleeve, as and for the purposes specified.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
WILLIAM S. MARTIN. Witnesses:
EDWARD M. SHELTON, WM. CoRsn MOARTHUR.
