IMPROVEMENT IN CORN-PLANTES'.

T0 ALL'WHOM IT MAY GONCERN:
Be it known 'that I, JOSEPIIUS MOORE, of Bushnelhin the county of MeDonou nois, have invented certain new andmseful Improvements in ICorn-Planters; lowing is a. full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being to the letters of reference.m-arked'thereon.
InY the annexed drawings, making partrof this specification, A A represents the frame of the machine, which may .be constructed in any ofthe known and usual ways, and supportediupon the a'xleC andwhejelsB B. Upon each side of the frame, and in front of the wheels, l
gh-,andin'the State of Illiich pass into the seed-hoppers. Seed-openings are .formed (as seen atx) in the shaft D'near each end G G rcpresent'metallic tubes or covers for those portions of shaft D which-extend into the seed-hoppers, and these covers are provided with openings or slots, a a, immediately revolution carries a discharge of seed `tob'e deposited in the discharge spoutfOl i and do hereby declarev thatthe fol-- had to the accompanying drawings, andV are placed two seed-hoppersfF F.; D represents a the grain to pass into them. The shaft D revolvesfand at each a. valve, N, -which retains the seed near the bottom ofthe spout until it is desirableto have itdischarged.l This valve is voperated by means vof a pin or lug upon the' shaft D, so that said valve is operated regularly at each rev.`
an one seed-opening in its periphery, and in this necessary to operate the valve'as hften as seed is which passes' from the hub of one of the Wheels to a unless stationed to the shaft by means of theelntch I.
case-more lugs will be needed to ope'rate the valve, for it .isl taken from the'vhopper. Erepresents a band o r chain, pulley, H, upon the shaft D. `The pulley'His loose, `This chain serves to give motion to the shaft E when TheclutohI is operated by means of a. suitable levez` or rod for that purpose. VThe shaft D is sometimes. operated by hand, as follows: I'provide the shaft with a bevel-wheel", K, and gear -into it a. wheel, L, which isoperated bythe hand of the operatolxm W represents a plate, which is secured to the frame A, but whichlies above theA shaft D. This plateis slotted, 'as seen, and through this slot on its upper end. AThe bevel-wheel L is secured upon the shaft near its lower end. This lower end of shaftM has ilts'bearing'r in a collar, J, which surrounds shaft D. lThe wheel K, as also the collar J, may he moved to any desired position upon shaft D, to suitthe convenience of the operator, and the shaft M may be moved to correspond by means of' the slot in plate W. It represents a rod at the rear of the frame, with Scrapers upon each end, to remove the -dirt from the wheels. Y The Aton-gue g is hinged to the frame. P represent runners, which connect at their forward ends to the fame,und'at their rear ends to theudisohargelspout O. T hese runners open the earth to receive the seed, and can beremoved whenever it is desirable,for sharpening them. Having thus fully. described my'vinvention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. The arrangement of ythe `shaft D with the seedhoppers F F, coversl G G, valveN, discharge-spout O, and runners P, constructed and operating'in the manner `and for the`purpose set forth. l Y
2. The arrangement of the plate W, shaft M, wheel Incollar J, and bevel-wheel K with the shaftD, as and for the purpose set forth.
In testimony Vthat I claim 'the foregoing, I have hereunto 'set hand, this.V day of 1867.
J GS EPHUS MOORE.
