UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
ALBE D. MILLER, or PORTLAND, INDIANA.
- CL'OVER-HAR'VESTER.
SPECIFICATION forming-part of Letters-Patent No. 701,912, dated June 10, 1902.
To LtZZ whom it may concern: A Be it known that I, ALBE D. MILLER, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at Portland, in the county of Jay and State of Indiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Clover-Harvesters, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to harvesters, and
particularly to that class known as clover cutters and gatherers.
The object of the invention is to produce a in g rearwardly of the fin ger-bar. It frequently happens in the use of a mowing-machine that short turns are made in which the finger-bar swings back. It isdesirable at such times to have an attachment which will ride over the surface of the ground without; obstruction. This invention is designed and accomplishes that result. A
Finally, the object of the invention is to produce a mowing-machine attachment which will possess advantages in'points of efliciency and durability, proving at the same time com paratively inexpensive.
With the above and other objectsin view the invention consists inthe details of construction and combination a'ndarrangement.
of parts to be hereinafter more fully set forth and claimed.
In describing the invention in detail refer-.'
ence will be had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, wherein like characters denote corresponding parts in the several views, and in which Figure 1 is a plan view of a mowing-machine with an attachment embodying the invention attached. Fig. 2 is a perspective view'of the attachment. Fig. 3 is a detail View of the connecting means between the mowing-ma- .50 chine and the gathering attachment.
In the drawings, 1 indicates a mowing-ma- .in detail.
chine, and 2 a finger-bar, which, being of, any
ordinary construction, need not be described Hooks 3 are secured to the fingerbar by means of bolts 4, the said hooks terminating a short distance from the rear edge of thefinger-bar.
The clover-gathering attachment comprises a front bar 5, which is engaged by the hooks 3. The frame has sides6, of sheet metal, taporing toward the rear an'dha'ving a curved edge 7 at the rear. Standards 8 are secured ,toth-e rear end of the sides, and braces 9 extend from the sides to the standards. The sides of the frame converge at therear ends in order that the material passing between ,them may be compressed somewhat before its discharge, there being a gate formed bya shaft IO and slats or fingers'll, which controls the rear of the gatherer. The bottom of the frame is formed of strips 12 of metal, secured at their front ends to the bar 5, while their rear ends are curved and terminate in a line with the slats of the gate. Owing to the curvature of the rear ends of the strips, they are free to ride over thesurface of the ground regardless of the movement of the mower.
From the foregoing description it will be ob-v served that as' the clover is out it will be forced rearwardly against the gate and that :as the gate is opened the accumulation will be deposited'in a bunch, which can be readily takenup. 7 The construction, operation, and advantages will,' it is thought, beunderstood from the foregoing descriptiomitbei'ng noted that various changes in 'thedetails of construction may be resortedto for successfully car rying'the invention into practice without de= parting from the scope of the claim. 7
Having thus fully described myinvention, what Iclaim as new, and desire to secureby Letters Patent, is I In a clover-harvestena front bargbottom' strips secured thereto extendingrearwardly 7 standards secured to the sides, a shaft supported by the standards, fingers carried by i in thepresence of two Witnesses, this 30th day the shaft and projecting to the upturned ends of November, 1901. of the bottom strips means for partially ro- 1 tating the shaft, and hooks on the finger-bar ALLE MILLER 5 engaging the front bar of the receptacle, as \Vitnesses:
and for the purpose described. S. W. HAYNES,
In testimony whereof I affix my signature, GEO. XV. HALL.
