IMPROVED ROAD-SGRAPER.
"dige dgs'hulc nimm in iii-hpa t-rites intent animating nrt nf tij-e sami.
T0' ALL WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:'
Be it known that I, PmLANDnP. Fosrun, of Richmond, in the county of Sagadahoc, and State of Maine, have invented a new and improved Scraper; and I do hereby declare that tho following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable others skilled in the art to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, in which- Figure lis a top view of my improved scraper.
Figure 2 is a vertical longitudinal section of the same, taken through the line a: z, fig. 1.
Similar letters of reference indicate lkeparts.
My invention has for its object to furnish an improved scraper by means of which the snow maybe removed easily and quickly from ice, streets, walks, yards, Snc.; audit consists in the scraper having tilting bottom-boards, and adjustably pivoted to the runners; in attaching projections or side scrapers to the forward ends ofthe sidehoards, to clear away the snow in front of the runners; and in the combination of an inside scraper with the main scraper, to move the snow back in said main scraper, the whole being constructed and arranged as hereinafter more fully described.
A is the scraper, the side-boards a1 of which are adjustably pivoted to the runners B. a3 is the iron or steel plate, by means of which the snow may be separated from the iceor ground, and which is securely attached to the forward part-sof the side-boards al. a2 are the bottom-boards, which' are pivoted atr their ends to the frame of the scraper A. The boards@2 are connected to each other by having their edges Apivoted .to the crossbar a4, so that the said boards may all move together. The pivoting pin of one of the 'bottom-boards extends out, and has an arm or lever, C,- attached to it, by means of which the bottom-boards a2 may be' conveniently tilted or canted to discharge the load. D are projections, ploughs, or scrapers attached to the forward ends of the sides of the scraper to push the snow away from before the runners B. The runners B are made with their middle parts, b1, projecting upward, as shown in tig. 2, which said projecting parts bl have several holes formed threugh'them'for the reception of the pins E, by means of which the scraper A is ypivoted to the said runners, so that the said scraper may be adjusted according to the character of the work to be don'e. If desired the pins E may be arranged with a lever or brake, so that the scraper may be raisedor lowered as convenience 'in loading, transporting, or unloading may require. The runners B maybe placed either upon the enter er innersides of the side-boards a1,.as may be desired. When scraping, the forward end of the scraper A is held down in contact with the surface ofthe ice o1' ground by raising the rear end of said scraper where it is held' by the brace li, the'upper end of which enter-sone or the other of thenotches formed in the rear part of the scraper A. The lower end ofthe brace or support F is pivoted to the framework that connects the runners, and upon which the rear part of the scraper rests when lowered. In case the snow does not slide up the inclined bottom of the scraper readily, I use the scraper G to force it up. The scraper G fits into the scraper A, and rests upon and is held in proper position by the feet or guide-blocks g1. To the forward side of the scraper G are pivoted two arms or pointed bars, g2: In using the scraper G, it is'placed upon'the forward part of the scraper A, with the ends or points of the bars g2 sticking into the ice; then, a's the scraper A is drawn forward, the scraper G pushes the snow before it up the inclined bottom of the scraper A, until the forward end of said scraper raises theforward ends of the arms g2 from the ice. H is a shaft, revolving in bearings in the rear part of the scraper A, having a crank formed upon one end, and having hooks attached to it for the attachment of the chains or ropes I, the forward ends of which are attached to the' scraper G. This arrangement is used for drawing the snow into the rear part of the scraper A, or for unloading the said scraper through the rear end, the rear-end board a5 'of said scraper being hinged or pivoted at its upper edge, to enable this to be conveniently dene.
What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is I. An improved scraper, A, having tilting or pivotcd bottom-boards aand being adjustab'ly pivoted to the runners B,constructed and operating substantially as hereinv shown and deseribed'and for the purpose set forth. 2. The combination of the inside scraper G and pointed rodsy2 with the serapeLA, substantially as .herein shbwn and described and for thc 'purpose set forth. A
8. The combination of the crank-shaft II and ropesor chains I with the scraper A and inside scraper Gr,
substantially as hereinl shown and described and for the purpose set forth.
The above specification of my invention signed by me this 19th day of February, 1867.
