To all whom it may vful Improvement in a ROBERT F. SIGLER, OF UPPER SANDUSKY, OHIO.
HOLLOW-SHOCK CORE.
Application filed February 3, 1906.
concern:
Be it known that I, ROBERT F. SIGLER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Upper Sandusky, in the county of Vyandot and State of Ohio, have invented a new and use- Hollow-Shock Core, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates generally to corn harvesters and more particularly to the Deering harvester, the object being to remedy certain defects and principally the formation of the shock. At the, present time the shock as formed upon the platform is smaller at the bottom than at the top, and consequently considerable difficulty is experienced in setting up the shock after it has been moved from the platform to the fields, and the obliect of my invention, therefore, is to provide a cheap, and simply constructed core which can be attached to the platform of the harvesters now in use, and about which the shock can be formed, thereby providing a broad base, which will insure the steadiness of the shock, when placed upon the ground.
The invention consists of the details of construction hereinafter fully described, and
ointed out in the claims.
In the drawings forming a part of this specificationzFigure l is a perspective view of my invention applied to the platform, of the harvester. Fig. 2 is a sectional view of the device, detached from the platform. Fig. 3 is a detail perspective view of a slightly modified form, and Fig. 4 is a detail view showing the manner of building up the shock upon the platform around the core. Fig. 5 is a perspective view showing my device in position on a Deering corn shocker.
In carrying out my invention I employ a conical ring A, preferably made of sheet metal, the ends being riveted together as shown at A. This conical ring A, is preferably about ive inches in depth, and is provided with four or more legs B, about five inches in height, so that the core as a whole is about ten inches high. Each leg B, has an Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented May 12, 190s.
serial No. 299,323.
' apertured foot piece B', by means of which the core is securely fastened to the platform O of a harvester D. The legs are preferably made integral with the ring but it is obvious that they can be separate and attached in any suitable manner. In Fig. 3, I have shown a slight modification in which the conical ring A2, is provided with a base flange A3, thus doing away with the supporting leg. In use my hollow shock core is designed to be used in connection with the Deering corn shocker in which'the stalks are carried to the cutting apparatus and thence to a revolving table by gathering chains. The shock after being formed and tied by one of the operators is lifted by a crane and swung to one side and then deposited upon the ground.
This harvester as at present made forms a shock which in practice is found to be of greater diameter at the bottom than at the top, thereby making the shock top-heavy and difficult to tion after it has been lifted from theharvester and set upon the ground.
My core is arranged centrally upon the harvester and serves to spread out the bottom of the shock by preventing the stalks from being crowded to the center of the shock while the same is being formed. After beingl tied the shock is lifted from the machine and swung to the ground in the usual manner. It will thus be seen that I provide a simple and efficient means of overcoming the defect hereinbefore referred to.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Batent is The combination with a corn harvester, of a conical ring, and supporting foot pieces, said foot pieces being secured on the harvester platform.
