, NEGK-YOKE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Feb. 2, 1909.
Application filed October 26, 1907. Serial No. 399,278.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, CARL CHRIsTENsEN and CHARLEs W. NooNEN, citizens of the United States, and residing at Bradley, in the county of Kankakee and State of Illinois, and at Council Bluffs, in the county of Pottawattamie and State of Iowa, respectively, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Neck-Yokes, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawings.
Our invention relates to neck yokes, and
has for its object to provide a new and improved neck-yoke for use with four-horse teams. We accomplish this object as illus trated in the drawings and as hereinafter described.
That which we believe to be new is set forth in the claims.
In the drawings-Figure 1 is a plan view of our improved neck-yoke, showing also the forward ends of two poles or tongues, such, for example, as those commonly employed for double-row cultivators and Fig. 2 is a sectional view on line 2-2 of Fig. 1.
Referring to the drawings,34 indicate the poles or tongues, which extend forward from the machine frame in the usual way.
5 indicates a crossbar extending across the front ends of the poles 34 and rigidly con nected therewith by straps 6, as shown.
7 indicates an equalizer comprising a bar,
v which extends across the poles 34, its ends pivotally supporting yokes 89 at opposite sides of the poles 34, respectively, said yokes being so placed as to be in proper position for convenient attachment of two horses to the ends thereof, two horses being placed at the left-hand side of pole 3, as shown in Fig. 1, and two at the right-hand side of pole 4. 1'
10-11 indicate rods, the outer end portions of which are connected with the end portions of the equalizer 7, the inner endportions extending to the center of said equalizer and provided with loops 12-13, respec-. tively, which are adapted to receive a clevis or coupling 14 pivoted to the crossbar 5, as
that when the neck-yoke is in use it may be swung'backward and upward under the forward ends of the poles 34, against which it bears, so that it serves to support the weight of the poles. When not in use the neck-yoke hangs suspended from the coupling 14, as shown in dotted lines in Fig. 1. The yokes 8-I9 are connected with the end portions of the equalizer 7 by links 1516 placed centrally of said yokes, so that the weight of the oles is equally distributed between the four orses.
That which we claim as our invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is,
1. In a four-horse neck-yoke, the combination of a pair of poles, and an equalizer pivotally supported at the forward end portions of said poles and arranged to be moved upward under the forward ends of said poles to support the same, and means for attaching the horses to said equalizer.
2. In a four-horse neck-yoke, the combination of a pair of oles, an equalizer pivotally supported at t e forward end portions of said poles and arranged to be moved upward under the forward ends of said poles to support the same, and yokes connected with the outer end portions of said equalizer.
3. In a four-horse neck-yoke, the combination of a pair of poles, a crossbar connected with the forward ends thereof, an equalizer extending across said poles at the under side thereof, means pivotally suspending said equalizer from said crossbar, and yokes carried at the ends of said crossbar.
4. In a four-horse neck-yoke, the combination of poles, a crossbar connecting the forward end portions thereof, an equalizer extending across said poles at the under side thereof and being arranged to be moved upward into engagement therewith so as to support the poles when the neck-yoke is in use, andyokes at the ends of said equalizer.
