SEED-CORN RACK.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented July 13, 1909.
Application filed February 7, 1908. Serial No. 415,008.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, MARTINL. HENDERSON, a citizen of the United States, residing at Randall, in the county of Hamilton and State of Iowa, have invented a new and useful Seed-Corn Rack, of which the following is the specification.
The object of my invention is a convenient contrivance which may be used for drying and maturing seed corn ears without bringing them into contact with one another or with any other surface or object to any appreciable extent, permitting the free circulation of air around the entire car, and making it possible to keep each ear separate during the testing process so that each such ear may be separately tested and identified with its kernels in the test box.
In the accompanying drawing forming a part of this specification and wherein the same parts are uniformly designated by the same numerals of reference, Figure 1 is a view in elevation of a single link made in accordance with my invention, and Fig. 2 is the same view showing a plurality of links connected together in the assembled relation in which they are designed to be used.
The individual links shown in Fig. 1 are preferably formed of wire, and are formed by taking a straight piece of wire and bending it into a hook (2) at each end. At a short distance from said hooks (2) the wire is bent to form eyes (3) and the intermediate portion of the wire is bent to form a forwardly projecting hooked portion (4) connected by the remaining straight portion of the wire (5), the hooked portion (4) together with the intermediate straight portion (5) serving to receive and support the ear of corn which is to be matured or tested. These links are formed in the manner just described in order that one may be conveniently suspended from another, and thereby a convenient supporting means may be formed to readily support a number of cars of corn or other material to be tested, and the entire set of links thus connected may be supported from the upper link of the series, Which link is the only one which need be supported from a nail or other supporting means.
The links are assembled in use as shown in Fig. 2 of the drawing, the upper link of the series being supported by means of any suitable support, and the remaining links suspended therefrom; the hooks (2) of each suspended link being passed through the eyes (3) of the link immediately above, and in this way a number of links and a corresponding number of ears of corn or other material to be tested may be suspended from a single means of support, which number is limited only by the space between such support and the floor.
Having now described my invention, I claim 1. A rack comprising a number of independent supporting devices detachably connected with each other, each supporting device being formed of a single piece of Wire, and having its central portion formed into a supporting member, and its sides extended upwardly therefrom, each of said sides being provided at its upper end with a hook, each side also being provided at a point below the hook with an eye, the said hooks on one supportin device being detachably connect ed wit the eyes of the supporting device above it.
2. A seed corn rack comprising in combination a plurality of substantially identical supporting devices, each formed into a supporting member at its lower end and hooks at its upper end, and eyes intermediate said supporting means and said hooks, each of the said supporting devices below the upper one being adapted to be connected to the supporting member immediately above by means of the said hooks taking into the said eyes, substantially as set forth.
In testimony whereof, I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
MARTIN L. HENDERSON.
