WILLIAM D. JAMES,.OF .WALES, WISCONSIN.
COMBINED CATTLE STALL AND MANGER.
Specification of Letters Patent. Application filed September 19, 1906. Serial No. 335,164..
Patented Sept. 29, 1908.
To all whom it may concern: I
Be it known that I, WILLIAM D. JAMES, a citizen ofthe United States, residing at Wales, State of Wisconsin, have invented new and useful Improvements in a Combined Cattle Stall and'Manger, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvements in combinedinanger and stall for cattle.
The object of my invention is among other things to provide a manger that is not only more sanitary than those heretofore used but which when not in use may be raised and thrown back out of the way thereby economizing space; and when thus thrown back the front board of the manger will form a hood above the cattles heads and shield them from contact with falling chaff and other refuse matter from the fodder above, and a further object of my invention is to provide a manger which is more readily cleaned of refuse matter than those heretofore made for which reason it ismore sanitary. x
The construction of my invention is explained by reference to the accompanying drawings in which Figure 1 is a pers ective view showing the manger in its norma position for use. Fig. 2 is apers ective view showing the manger in its raise position.
Like parts are identified by the same reference characters in both views.
1 represents the manger which is ivotally sus ended from the vertical post 2 y a plurality oflinks 3 and aplurality of pivots, said links 3 being connected at one end with the post 2 by pivotal bolts 4 and at their opposite ends with the manger 1 by the pivota 5. The man er comprises the diagonal front board 6; end boards 7, 7, and a pluralit of partitions 8, whereby said manger is subdivided into as many compartmentsby said partitlons as there are stanchions 9. The stanchions 9 are of the ordinary construction and are supported at their lower ends from the floor upon the horizontal bar 10, while their upper ends are pivotally connectedwith the oriz'ontal bar 11, said bars, 10 and 11, being connected at their respective ends and at intervals with the post 2, in the ordinary manner. The manger ,1 is preferably 0 on at the bottom, whereby the feed placed t erein is ermitted to rest upon the floor,
and where y when the manger is raised from the position shown in Fig. 1 to that shown in bolts drop freely therefrom and, remain upon the floor when it can be readily swept away. The manger is raised from the position shown in Fig. 1 to that shown in Fig. 2 by the winding shaft 12 which is operated by the crank 13. Motion is communicated from the shaft '12 to'the manger 1 by the flexible connections 14, cord chain or wire cable being used for such flexible connection.
In constructing my manger I preferably form several compartments in connection with the single front board 6, whereby-all of said compartments will be simultaneously raised by turning the winding shaft 12. The lower end of the flexible connection 14- is connected with the upper edge of the manger and its upper end 1s connected with said winding shaft, whereby as the crank 13 is turned the upper end of said flexible connection will be wound on the shaft and the manger will be raised as stated from the position shown in Fig. 1 to thatshown in Fig. 2, when the manger can be'r'etained in that position by throwing the crank retaining lug 15 from the vertical position shown in Fig. 1 to the horizontal 'sition shown in Fig. 2 in front ofthe crank I prevented from turning andsaid flexible conmotion from being unwound from the 'shaft. When, however, it is desirous to lower the manger said retaining lug'15 willbe disengaged fromv the crank when said crank will 'revolve in the opposite direction thus permittiiig the manger to fall back to its normal ,position shown in Fig. 1 when-the manger is ready for use. p
The space in the rear of the several compartments of the manger is subdivided'zinto a plurality of stalls by a plurality of metallic partition frames 16, which are referably made of tubing and connectedat their upper ends with the post 2 and at their lower endswith the floor 17 by ordinary pipe fittings in the usual manner, when it is obvious that said metallic partition frames perform the two-fold funct ons of subdividing the space in the rear of the manger into stalls and also as-post sup orting braces by which said post 2 and the bars 10 and 11 connected therewith are rigidly retained in their proper position.
In the preferred form of stall, shown in Fig. 1, I referably employ an additional horizontal ar 18 which ar is connected at 13 whereby said crank will beits front end to the metallic post 19 by ordinary pipe fittings 20 andat its rear end to the vertical post 2, said bar 18'not only serves to strengthen and support the stall but prevents the liability of cattle getting through the same.
While I have shown my improved form of manger connected with a stanchion supporting'frame, comprising a plurality of vertical posts 2 connected together by horizontal bars, it is obvious that said stanchions do not form a material part of my present invention and may be dispensed with or substituted by vertical osts. The essence of my invention consists in providing means for pivotall supporting the manger in such manner tiat it may be raised when not in use from position shown in Fig. 1 to that shown in Fig. 2 regardless of the means of securing the cattle in place in rear of said manger; and in the metallic partition frame by which said posts are su orted.
aving thus described my invention what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is,
1. In a device of the described class the combination of a lurality of vertical posts,
a manger, a plur ity of manger supporting links, means for pivotally connecting said links at one end to said manger and addi tional means for pivotally connecting said links at their'opposite ends to said posts, means for raising said manger from its normal position, and means for securing said manger in its raised position the pivotal con.- nections of said mangers with said links being adapted to permit the mouth of said mangers to be brou ht to the vertical in close contact with t e vertical supporting posts.
2. In a device of the described class the combination of a stanchion supporting frame, a plurality of stanchions supported in said frame, a manger located in front of said stanchions, a plurality of manger supporting links, means for pivotally connecting said links at one of their ends to said frame and additional means for connecting said links at their opposite ends to said manger, means for raising said manger, and means for securing said manger in its raised position with its mouth against the vertical side of said frame.
3. In a device of the described class the combination of a stanchion supporting frame, a manger subdivided by a plurality of vertical partitions. into a plurality of separate compartments open at their lower and rear sides, adapted when raised to deposit its remaining contents upon the floor, a plurality of manger sup orting links, pivotal bolts connectin said hnks at one end to said manger and tieir opposite ends to said frame, means for simultaneously inverting and raising all of said compartments from their normal to their elevated position and means for securing the same when raised in such elevated )osition.
4. In a device of the described class the combination of a stanchion supporting frame comprising a plurality of vertical )osts and horizontal bars, a plurality of stanehions pivotally connected at their upper and lower ends to the u per and lower bars of said frame, a plura ity of stall partition frames connected at one end to one side of said vertical posts and at their opposite ends with the post supporting floor, said frames being adapted to serve the two-fold purpose of partitions between the respective stanchions and of braces for the stanchion supporting frame, a manger open at the bottom and one side a plurality of manger su porting links pivotally connected at one end to said manger and at their opposite ends to said posts upon the opposite side from said partition frame, a winding shaft extending longitudinally of said frame and revolubly connected therewith, flexible connections co1nmunieating directly between said .winding shaft and the upper edge of said manger, and adapted to be wound upon said shaft, a crankfor revolving said winding shaft and means for retaining said manger when raised in its elevated position, all substantially as and for the purpose specified.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in the presence of two witnesses. 7
