WITNESSES: I MTOR I UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
FRED J. J. SCHUETT, OF SAGINAIV, MICHIGAN.
DIVIDER FOR MOWlNG-MACHINES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 577,116, dated February 16, 1897. Application filed May 15,1896. Serial No. 591,604. (No model.)
art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawing,and to the letters and figures of reference marked thereon, which forms it part of this specification.
-My invention relates to track cleaners or dividers for mowing-machines, and is an improvement upon my Letters Patent No. M6394, issued February 24, 1891, to which reference is hereby prayed.
The invention consists in the arrangement and adjustability of the shield and shoe and of the dividing-rod, as will hereinafter appear.
The figure is a perspective of my invention.
In the drawing, A represents the finger-bar of the mowing-machine, upon which the usual knives or cutters run.
B is the under side of a vertical shield secured to the outer end of the finger-bar and having adj ustably secured to the under side of it the shoe S, having the hooked end S passing through the slot B in the shield B and engaging it, and having near its rear end the standard 1, having the vertical slot 2, through which the bolt 3 passes and engages the rear end of the shield B.
G is the upper part of the shield and integral with it and answers the purpose of the fender 0, described in said Letters Patent. It extends backward to a point back of the finger-bar b and connected to the rear end of the shield B by the standard 0, which arises from the guard back of the finger-bar b and has extending rearward therefrom the enlargement B having recesses 6 into which the front end of the grass-board G is inserted and hinged on the bolt 7.
D is the divider, hinged to the part 0 of the shield B at at by the bolt 4, and is a curved bar extending rearward with the grass-board G and to a sufficient height above to properly divide or separate the cut grass from the standing grass and make room for the wheel of the mowing-machine as it passes along at the edge of the standing grass.
The divider D is supported from the grassboard G by the hinged brace H, hinged to the divider D at 5 and to the grass-board G at 6.
G are holesin vertical line,any one of which may be engaged by the bolt securing the brace to the grass-board, and thus alfording means for adjusting the height of the divider D, as desired, it being desirable in heavy grass to have the divider D higher or farther above the grass-board than in short and light grass, and if fixed in the position as shown in the figure at a high elevation the shorter grass would fall between the grass-board and divider and gather or clog upon the brace II; but by adjusting the divider I) as mentioned it may be adapted for use in cutting both short and tall grass, and by being hinged at 4: and the grass-board at 7 they both readily adjust themselves to the unevenness of the meadow-bottom.
The standard 1, containing the vertical slot 2, and the bolt 3, securing the standard to the shield, affords means for adjusting the outer end of the finger-bar so as to out high or low.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, isv 1. In means for adjusting the dividers on the end of the finger-bar, the combination with the finger-bar and a shoe under the end of the finger-bar and a grass-board hinged to the rear of the finger-bar, of means connecting the finger-bar and shoe for raising the hinged end of the grass-board, a dividing-rod hinged to a standard thrown up from the tinger-bar, and means for adjusting the rear end of the dividing-rod comprising a brace adjustably connected to the rear of the grassboard and dividing-rod, whereby by adj usting these means the distance between the swath and the standing grass may be varied, as specified. I
2. In a mowing-machine, the combination with a grass-board hinged to the rear of the In testimony whereof I hereunto affix my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
FRED J. J. SCI'IUETT.
grass-board by a brace hinged to the grassboard and to the divider, and means for adjusting the brace up and down along the grass-board, substantially as specified.
