AWNING FOR VINES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 593,654, dated November 16, 1897.
I Application filed January 20, 1897. $erial No. 619,867. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, EZRA HEADLEY, a citizen of the United States, residing at Bloomfield, in the county of Trumbull and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Awnings for 'Vines; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
This invention has reference to a novel construction in an awning or shade adapted for use more especially for protecting vines and tender fruits against the effect of frosts.
The invention consists in the features of construction hereinafter fully described and claimed.
In the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, Figure 1 is a perspective view of this invention as applied to a vineyard. Fig. 2 is a vertical section of the same.
In accordance with the principle involved "by this invention it is proposed to furnish the frames of a vineyard or to place frames in a field where vines or tender fruits are growing, and upon these frames to place awnings that can be folded or removed from the frames in the daytime for the purpose of exposing the plants to the sun, and can be drawn down at night to keep them from the frosts.
conveniently made of some tough and waterproof paper. The awnings 5 are connected with the shaft and are provided at their outer edges with weights 6, that are sufficient to draw the awnings out when the shaftis unwound. The said shaft 4 is connected with the awnings, so that as it turns the awnings are wound and unwound. As a convenient construction the shaft is made in two parts, between which the awning is fastened, as shown. The said shaft 4 is provided with a pulley, and it is noted that with several lines of awnings and awning-frames constructed in this manner a single cable 7, fastened to the pulley 8 upon theshaft 4, is sufficient to roll or unroll the said awnings.
The cable 7 is employed for operating a plurality of shafts, and in the construction illustrated is provided with the looped wires 9, that are trained around the pulleys and rigidly fastened to the cable 7. In this way it is seen that when a frost is feared the said awnings can be unfolded in the evening and thus cover over the plants, while in the morning they can be easily rolled up by pulling the cable 7. In this way the danger of having the fruit or vines frost-bitten is effectually avoided,
.and it is obvious, therefore, that an enormous saving is thereby madeowing to the damage thus averted.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. The combination with the upright posts set in alinement with each other and provided at their upper ends with inclined arms 3, of a shaft mounted in bearings at the upper end of said arms 3, awnings upon said shafts above said arms and provided at their outer ends with weights, and devices for turning said shaft in opposite directions.
2. The combination with the upright posts provided at their upper ends with brackets bearing I the inclined arms 3, of a shaft mounted in bearings at the upper end of said arms and provided with awnings over said arms, weights at the outer ends of said awnings, and devices for turning said shaft in opposite directions.
In testimony whereof I have signed this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
EZRA HEADLEY. Witnesses:
D. W. SMITH, MARY A. SMITH.
