UNITED STAT S JOHN c. HENDRICKS, or GALESBURG, ILLINOIS.
ST RAW-STACKE B,
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 758,136, dated April 26, 1904.
Application filed January 8, 1903.
To all whmn it may concern:
Be it known that I, J OHN C. HENDRICKS, a citizen of the United States, residing at Galesburg, in the county of Knox and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Straw-Stackers, of which the following is a specification.
The present invention relates more espe cially to a straw-stacker of the endless carrier type. Such a stacker has a chute made in sectionsjointed together, means for moving either or both of said sections for placing them at the desired inclinations, a carrier in the form of an endless belt,and means for driving it.
The present invention relates to that subclass of such stackers in which the two sections are jointed to the threshing-machine.
The object of the invention isto provide simple and improved means for moving either or both of said sections in order to bring them to the desired inclinations.
In the accompanying drawings, which are made a part of this specification, Figures 1 and 2 are side elevations of a straw-stacker embodying the invention and showing the outer section down and up, respectively. Fig. 3 is a section thereof with the parts in the positions shown in Fig. 2, the plane of the section being indicated by the line 3 3, Fig. 4. Fig. 4 is a plan view thereof, excepting that the hood is shown in section on the line 4: i, Fig. 3.
A is the inner and B the outer section of the chute, said sections being jointed together at C, so that the outer section may be placed in different positions relatively to the inner section and the inner section being horizontally jointed at its inner end, so that its outer end is capable of being raised and lowered. The chute may be of customary construction or of any desired construction, so long as it is capable of performing the functions hereinafter described. The position of the outer section is controlled by a link I), one end of which is jointed to said section, a lever E, fulcrumed to the section A and having one arm jointed to the remaining end of the link, a rope, chain, or cable F, one end of which is connected to the other arm of the lever, and a pulley G,
supported by the section A near the bottom Serial no. 138,271. (No model.)
thereof and under which the rope is trained. These parts are duplicated on opposite sides of the chute. They form a simple system, the operation of which will be understood at a glance. In addition to this system for operating the outer section a rope, chain, or cable H is attached to the inner section, near the top thereof, for raising or lowering its outerend. This movement of the inner section, even without any manipulation of the cable F, will alter the relative positions of the two sections, so that, depending upon the relative positionsin which it is desired to place the parts, one or the other, or both, of the cables are manipulated.
The endless carrier is shown at I. It may be of anydesired construction. I have shown it as being constructed of a pair of sprocket- -chains and an intervening belt, of canvas or the like, having cross-strips. It is driven by sprocket-wheels on a shaft J and is trained over sprocket-wheels on shafts K K K K K, the latter being for the purpose of preventing too much slack in the lower lap of the carrier when the outer end of the outer section of the chute is lowered.
L isa hood carried by the outer section and projecting past the joint connecting the two sections, so that when the two sections are in line, or substantially so, it will not interfere with the outward travel of the straw; but when the outer end of the outer section is lowered the hood will assume a corresponding position and direct the straw downward more or less accordingly. The hood may be made of any suitable sheet material and is of semicircular shape in cross-section, its margins being suitably secured to the sides of the section B of the chute. V c.
What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
Patented April 26, 1904.
1. In a straw-stacker, the combination of a I chute consisting of an inner section the outer end of which is adapted to be raised and lowered, an outer section jointed to the outer end ing one end of the lever with the outer sec- IO tion, a cable attached to the other end of the lever, anda pulley, carried by the inner section, over which the cable passes, substantially as described.
