UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
ALLEN A. WEBSTER, OF FREMONT, INDIANA.
IMPROVEMENT IN SHEEP-RACKS.
Specification formingpart of Letters Patent No. 56,300, dated J nly 10, 1866.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, ALLEN A. WEBSTER, of Fremont township, Steuben county, State of Indiana, have invented new and useful Improvementsin a Machine for Feeding Sheep,
Neat Cattle, and Horses; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the construction and operation of the same, reference being had to the annexed drawing, making a part of this specification, in which is a perspective view, and to the letters of reference marked thereon.
The nature of my invention and improvements consists in providing and placing two drawers, two shed-tables, and rack-pins in a machine or rack for feeding sheep, neat cattle, and horses, the bottom or bed table of the machine or rack to be made of plank two inches thick and one foot wide and nearly twelve feet long, for sheep and cattle the upper surface to be placed about one foot and three inches above the floor or ground, and for horses a convenient distance higher.
The ends or upright parts are to be made of boards one inch thick, two feet wide, and three feet high from floor or ground; the fast enings ordinary and usual.
Dis bed-table. G G are end boards or stands.
A' A are two feed-drawers. I construct these drawers of boards one inch thick, length equal to bed-table; for sheep two inches deep inside; for neat cattle and horses deeper, and five-eighths inch wide, including sides. I place these drawers, one under each side of the bed-table, on sliderests, with shoulders G G G G fastened to their ends. These drawers, for feeding, are to be drawn out by rings a a a a to shoulders; for cleaning, raised above the shoulders and turned over.
E E, 850., are rack-pins. These I construct of hard wood, round, one inch thick; for sheep, length above the bed table six inches,
and sustaining the inner edges of the sheltertables and placed threeinches apart, preventing sheep from passing their heads, and placed with feet in holes, the center of which is one inch from the edge of bed-table, and inclined so as to cause their upper ends to be vertical to the edges of the bed-table; for horses, to be convenient distance higher and apart.
B B are shelter-tables. I construct these of boards one inch thick, with gndgeons b b on each end extending into holes in the ends or upright of the machine or rack. The gndgeons are made proper distance from the inner edges of the shelter-tables, so that when these edges are turned down to an inclination of the tables of about forty-five degrees these edges will rest on the tops of the rack-pins. The inner edges of the shelter-tables are rounded on the upper sides. The outer width of the tables from the gndgeons is sufficiently extended to make a shelter for sheep and feed-drawers. The shed-tables, graduated in inclination by pins F F, are placed in holes through the ends or uprights. For feeding cattle the tables are to be turned down so that outer edges meet the bed-table, forming a manger.
What I claim as my invention and improvement in a sheep and cattle feeding rack is Rack-pins E E E E E E E E E E, denoted in the accompanying drawing and referred to in the foregoing specification by their letters E E E E E E E E E E, and these rack-pins meeting and constructing shelter-tables B B (appearing in draft and specification) and also feed-drawers A A, (denoted in the accompanying drawing, and referred to in the foregoing specification by the letters A A.)
