Description
v Scythe Snath. No. 6.879. Patented Nov. 20, 1849.
' UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
LUTHER GOLE, OF LAFAYETTE, NEW YORK.
IMPROVEM ENT IN SCYTHE-SNATHS.
Specifieation forming part of Letters Patent No. 6,879. dated November 20, 1849.
To all whom it Imay concern:
Be it known that I, LUTHER GOLE, of Lafayette, in the county of Onondaga and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in the Scythe-Snath; and do hereby declare the following to be a full,clear, and exact description of the construction and operation of the same, reference being had to the annexed drawing, making part of this specification, in which Figure 1 is a side view.
They nature of my in rention consists in cnrving forward that portion of the scythe-snath below the right nib or thole to such an extent as to form an obtnse angle between the scythe and snath at the point where they are joined, and also in such a manner as to eqnalize the labor between the right and left hands,whereas in snaths now in use the greatest amount of labor falls upon the right arm.
Construct the snath Ain the usual manner, well known to those skilled in the art. Attach the tholes B and G, and also the scythe D, to the snath in the usual manner. Curve forward that portion of the snath between the lower thole, C, and the attachment of the scythe, until, by placiug the scythc in its right position, au obtuse angle will be formed between the scythe and the lower extremity ot' the snath.
What I claim as my invention, and desire to Secure hy Letters Patent, is-
Curving; forward that portion of the snath between the right-hand nib or thole land the extreinity to which the so) the is 'attached in such manner as to form an obtuse angle between the scythe and snath atI the point where they arejoined,by which device the left hand and arm are extended forward, (previous to the scytheis entering the grass,) so that the labor of cutting is peri'ormed as much by drawing in the left arm as by forcing around the right; at the same time the position given the scythe allows it to cut the whole length, and is more easily sharpened at the heel with the rnh-stonc than se) thes hnng on ordinary snaths.
