CORN-SHRDBRH SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 613,676, dated November 8, 1898.
Application inea January 6,1898. sesamo. 885,838. (Nomadi-.1.)
T0 all whom t may concern,.-
Be it known that I, FREDERICK HAGEN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Belvidere, in the county of Boone and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Corn-Shredders,of which the following is a specification.
The object of this invention is the production of a corn-shredder whereinthe danger of catching the hands of the operator in the mechanism is practically abolished. This result I have accomplished by attaching to the corn-shredder in common use a feeding device by means of which the cornstalks are fed evenly to the snapping-rolls, more evenly than such feeding could be done by hand, and whereby the operator is kept back from the dangerous mechanism.
In the corn-Shredders in common use continuous uniformity as to quantity in feeding is practically impossible and uneven feeding clogs the mechanism and invites the intervention of the operators hand to remedy the difficulty. I have guarded the basking-rolls of the shredder by placing the returning (under) portion of the endless feeding-carrier just above these rolls, so that there can be no clogging at these points, the weight of the carrier pressing the ears of corn into engagement with the husking-pegs on these rolls.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure l is a side elevation of that portion of a cornshredder to which my invention appertains, showing the application of my improvements thereto. Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the feeding-roller and its means of connection with the shredder. Fig. 3 is a plan view of the supports.
A is the supporting-frame.
B is the shredder-cylinder, B its supporting-shaft, and B2 the driving-pulley thereon.
C. are the snapping-rolls for snapping the unhusked ear from the stalks as the latter are passed between the rolls. Motion is imparted to these rolls from the driving-shaft B by means of the intermediate gearing C.
D represents the husking-rolls, with the husking-pegs D thereon, driven by the train of gearing D2 from the shaft B.
E is an endless carrier mounted on the supporting-wheels E and driven by the endlesschain-belt connection E2 with one of the gears of the train D2.
E3 are stationary side boards for the carrier E.
E4 are movable upper side boards.
All of the mechanism hereinbefore pointed out by letters of reference is common to many Shredders, and I do not claim it broadly as my invention.
F is the feeding-roller of my invention. It is largest in the middle, tapering slightly toward each end in order to spread the cornstalks evenly upon the carrier as they pass under the roller. The roller F is not positively driven, but merely rotates with the passing stalks. It is mounted in bearings in the rigid framework F upon the gudgeons F2 at either end of the roller, the under side of the framework F being covered with the sheet-iron piece F3. lThis framework F is pivoted in the upper side boards E3 upon the pintle F4 near the end opposite the feedingroller, leaving the latter free to rise and fall to accommodate itself to the varying amount of the feed.
F5 is a stop-block limiting the downward movement of the feeding-roller F. This block acts merely as a rest for the pivoted framework F' when the latter is at its lowest point.
F6 are arms pivoted near the lower edge of the stationary side boards E2 of the carrier E and at their upper ends to the movable upper boards. There are two of these arms on each side of the side boards, and they permit the bodily rearward movement of the frame; work F', carrying with it the feeding-roller F. Thus the framework F may occupy either one of two positions-to wit, the position shown by the full lines in Fig. l or the position indicated by the dotted lines in the same figure. the latter is the position it may be caused to assume when access to the snapping-rolls C is desirable.
In operation the cornstalks are scattered as evenly as possible upon the carrier E after motion has been imparted' to the shredding mechanism and are carried thereby under The first is its operative position and` IOS the feeding-roller F, which bears upon the stalks and tends by reason of its crowning form to throw the stalks from the middle of the carrier E,Where they usually lie thickest, to the sides of the carrier. The position of this roller just forward of the snapping-rolls prevents the operator from placing his hands in proximity thereto, and by feeding the stalks c evenly to those rolls prevents clogging at this point.
The carrier E is located just above the bushing-rolls D to prevent the piling up of ears of corn thereon, to hold the ears against the rolls, and to prevent the placing of the hand of the operator in contact therewith.
l mounted over the carrier by a pair of pivotal links loosely pivoted to the upper and the `lower side boards respectively, substantially as and for the purpose specified.
FREDERICK HAGEN.
