GRAIN-LOADING MACHINE.
SPECIFICATION forming partof Letters Patent No. 627,906, dated June 27, 1899.
Application filed December 1, 1898. Serial No. 698,028- (No model.)
To all whom it Netty concern.-
Be it known that we, JOHN E. COWLES and CHARLES W. ANDRIDGE,citiZensOf the United States, residing at Storm Lake, in the county of Buena Vista and State of Iowa, have invented a new and useful Grain-Loading Machine,of which the following is a specification.
Our invention is an apparatus adapted to be connected with a grain-elevator and to be arranged partly within and partly Without a car which is required to be loaded with grain and to be operated in such manner as to discharge into either end of the car the grain descending through the elevator-spout.
The construction, combination, and operation of the apparatus are as hereinafter described, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, in which-- Figure 1 is a side view of the apparatus as arranged for practical use. Fig. 2 is a plan View of the same. Fig. 3 is a vertical section on the line 3 3 of Fig. 1. Fig. 4 is a section on the line 4.- 4 of Fig. 1. Fig. 5 is an enlarged cross-section of one of the blades of the fan employed for forcing grain into the car.
A indicates a rotatable shaft which is held in suitable bearings a upon a broad horizontal bar B, to one end of'which a fan-casing O is attached at a right angle thereto. A fan D is arranged within said casing. and keyed upon the shaft A. The opposite and outer end of said shaft carries a pulley E, upon which runs a belt'from the elevator. (Not shown.) The said pulley may be hat or grooved to accommodate either a flat belt or rope, as may be preferred. The fan-casing O has an inlet-opening c at the middle of its upper portion on the inner side, and a flange projects therefrom, as shown in Fig. 1, to form tice held or supported within the car by the bar B, w hich rests upon the car-door, as shown by dotted lines, Fig. 1. The outer end of said bar. 13 is held rigidly secured. between two uprights G, which are held equidistant by means of a cap-piece g. A screw-bolt H passes through the said uprights and the bar B, as shown in Figs. 1 and 4. To provide for Vertical adjustment of the. outer end of bar B, we provide the uprights G with a series of holes adapted to receive the bolt H, as shown in Fig. 1. Such adjustment of the bar B may be required to take up slack in the belt running on pulley E or for the purpose of accom modating the apparatus to the height of the car-door or other support employed for the'opposite end of the said bar.
It is apparent that when the apparatus is in due position, as shown in Fig. 1, and grain is allowed to discharge into the fan-casing O the rotation of the'shaft A and its attached fan D will force the grain out through one of the lateral openings 0 of said casing and that the same'will thereby be delivered into the end portion of the car. The direction of rotation of the shaft and fan determines which end of the car shall receive the grain.
The apparatus is exceedingly light, simple in construction, easily operated, and efficient for its purpose.
What we claim is- 1. The combination, with upright guides, of the apparatus before described, comprising a fan-casing, a fan, arotary shaft having a pulley on its outer end, and a rigid bar adapted to be held and adjusted between the guides, substantially as shown and described.
2. The combination, with upright guides having a series of transverse holes and a screwbolt adapted to pass through the same, of the loading apparatus proper comprising a rigid bar adapted to fit and be adjusted between the guides, a shaft arranged in bearings longitudinally of said bar, a fan and pulley keyed in cross-section, substantially as and for the purpose specified.

on said shaft, and a fan-casing attached to the aforesaid bar, substantially as shown and described.
3. In an apparatus for loading rain into I l i 1 cars, the combination, with a rotaFy shaft, a ANDRIDGE' rigid supporting-bar and a fan-casing having \Vitnesses:
inlet and discharge openings, of a fan proper, B. F. SKECH,
having radial blades of concavo-concave form I S. D. EADIE.
