YW. J. LUDLOW, OF CLEVELAND, OHIO. Letters Patent No.` 86,562, dated February 2, 1869.
The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, W. J. LUDLOW, of Cleveland, in the county of Cuyahoga, in the State of Ohio, have invented a new and improved Hand Corn-Sheller; and I' do hereby declare thefollowing to be a full and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and the letters of reference marked thereon, of whioh- Figure I is aperspective View, Vshowing the manner of its operation;
.Figure II, a side elevation; and
Figure III, a cross-section.
The construction of my corn-Sheller is as follows:
I first provide a ,handle of suitable shape. (See A, Figs. Land III.)
Awire, of proper size and length, is coiled on a oirole of about three inches diameter, and making three turns, more or less. The ends of lthis wire are now bent,lso as to come in contact at about one and one-half inch from the ooil, and running diagonally from the axis of the coil, thus forming two arms, as shown at a a', Fig. III.
These salnefends are now bent at the point of oon-Y taot, o, Fig. III, so as to run parallel, and are separately coiled about the middle of the handle A, as shown at B B', and leavingthe ends of the Wire projecting on the opposite side of the handle, forming the arms b b',
similar to the arms a a.
-A second coil, similar to the first, is formed, with the ends of the wire projecting the same distance as the arms of the iirst coil, parallel with each other, and standing at right angles to the axis of the coil.
The two coils are now interwoven, and the arms of the second made fast to the'projeoting endsv of the wire of the first coil, as shown at (Z, Fig. II. I
To each side of the interlocked portions of the coils is-attached a crescent-shaped disk, as shown at F and G in the several iignres.
The ends of the inner edge of each disk are bont or turned in opposite directions', so that when brought together, forming the jaws, as shown at F and G, Fig. II, they may operate more eiectually in the manner of a screw.
The two disks, on opposite sides of the same ooil, are joined together by Vmeans of a .piece of metal, doubled like the letter V. (SeeN, Figs. I and III.)
This piece of metal, for greater effect, is set diagonally between the disks.
The plates I I, on the outer part' of the coils, serve to strengthen the apparatus, as lalso to prevent the corn from flying.
The disks, owing to their form, and being placed on opposite sidesof the coils, act in the manner offa screw, progressing forward or backward, as they are revolved about the ear of corn. As the forward disks advance, theyparev pressed between the kernels, which are re-l moved from the cob by the .follower N, as it advances.
To operate the Sheller, place one end of an ear of corn between the jaws F G. Then, holding the ear E with the left hand, with the right grasp the handle A, and revolve the sheller aboutthe ear. `When it has progressed sufficiently far, seize the projecting cob with the right hand, and revolve the sheller with the left.
I claim the combination of the two ,j'aws,77 formed of coiled wire, when connected with the handle A, substantially'as described, and for the purpose herein set forth.

F. M. CHANDLER, W. G. OATMAN.
