Description
@duits/nl 5 PETER LUGE NB E LL, OF GREE NSBURG, INDIANA.
Leners Patent No. 89,227, dated April 2o, 1869.
IMPROVED DITCHINGMACHINE.
*ww- 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, PETER LUGENBELL, of Greensburg, in the county of Decatur, and in the State of Indiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Ditching-Machines'; and do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon.
In the annexed drawings, making part ofthis specication- A represents a square frame, (similar to that of a wagon-bed,)which is supported upon two axle-trees, being made fast to the rear axle-tree, and bolted to the forwzn l one, so that the bolt, acting as a pivot, will allow it to turn, or partially revolve.
These axle-trees C, are provided with the wheels D D, which carry theframe from place to place.
Erected upon the frame A, are standards A A', said standards being secured to the inside ofthe frame, at
its four corners, each one having a vertical groove in -it, from its bottom to near its top.
Side-bars B, and end-bars B B', connect the standands A together', at their upper ends. 1 l A ,Y G G represent two cross-bars, whose ends are made to fit in the grooves of the standards A', and which slide up and down in said grooves.
These cross-bars are hung, near each end, by means of cords or chains, to crank-shafts L L.
When these shaft are revolved, the cords or chains are wound around them, and the bars are thus drawn.
'They are let down, of course, by unwin'ding.l
A frame, composed of two side-bars, E E, placedat ta suitable distance apart, and two end-bars, G G', seen in dotted lines, Figure 2, is pivoted to the centres of the adjustable bars G G.
A bolt, S, passes through the centres of the bars G and G', and thus pivots the frame to the slide-bars.
Depending from the bars E, are two supports, H H; and in the lower ends of these supports, a wheel, I, has bearings for its axle.
The periphery of this wheel is provided with three rims, or anges, P P P, one at each ledge, and one in its centre.
J J represent two Shanks, with plow-teeth on their lower ends.
The upper ends of these shanks, are secured to the pivoted frame above described.
The lower ends of these Shanks rest between the Hanges P P.
Pivoted to the lower ends of these two shanks, are
two rims, which have the curve of the wheel I, andl which lie between the flanges P P, near their edges, so that a'space, sucient toallow earth to pass up, is left between them `and the periphery of the wheel.
K K represent two metallic shields, which are secured upon the pivoted frame, and which have tongues on them, which project in between the rims P P, and receive the earth as it is brought up.
The shields bend downward at their sides, so that the earth may be delivered to one side of the ditch.
When a ditch is to be made with this machine, the
frame A is drawn along in the line of the ditch, and
the wheel Itis lowered by the shafts L, until its rims, or flanges out into the earth. When this is the case, the lower ends of the rims, which are secured to the shanks J J, catch earth and pass it up between said rims and the periphery of the wheel. The wheel I revolving, assists in carrying it up. When the earth arrives at the top of the wheel, it is delivered to the shields K K, and passes off to one side.
By running the machine in the line of the ditch, and lowering the wheel I each time a little more, the ditch is dug as deep as necessary.
The arrangement of the frame A, with an adjustable pivoted interior frame, having wheel I, flanges P P, Shanks J J, and shields K Kfwith their respective parts all constructed and operating as and for the purposes set forth.
l In testimony that I claim the foregoing, I have hereunto set my hand, this 8th day of October, 1867.
PETER LUGENBELL. Witnesses:
WM. H. BROCKMAN, G. W. McGoNNELL.
