Description
S. STOW, OF EAST ENTERPRISE, INDIANA.
Letters Patent No. 95,535, dated Octal-)er 5, 1869.
IMPROVEMENT IN SEED-DRILLS.-
The Schedule referred in thesel Letters Patent and making part ofthe same.
Toall whom t may concern.-
Beit known that I, S. STOW, of East Enterprise, in the county of Switzerland, and State of Indiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Seed-Drills; and I do hereby declare that the following i-s a full, clear, and exact description thereof1 reference bcinghad to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification, in which- Figure l represents a side view of my invention.
Figure 2 is a plan view of the same.
The nature of my invention consists in constructing a seed-box and operating the saine by means of certain devices hereinafter set forth.
A, in the annexed drawings, represents the plowbeam.
B is the plow-share, connected to handles C C, in the ordinary way. 4
D designates the seed-box, which' is secured to the' inner side of the plow-beam A, by a semicircnlar metal strap, v
Under seed-box D is fastened the hopper -shaped receiver F, which has an opening. at its opposite ends, to admit of the playof slide g, the said slide operating directly beneath the bottom of seed-box D.
To the outer end of slide g, is hooked the rod h, which enters, atits opposite end, into the adjustable metal-block e, the hole through e being made sufficiently large to receive the end of a second rod, f,-
which connects with the crank of the driving-wheel.
m andln representtwo curved metal straps, on which the axle of wheel E has its bearing.
The said axle terminates at one e'ndwith a crank, to which the rod f is adjusted,.as above described.
The strap m, it will be' observed, is pivoted to the plow-beam at its inner end, while its outer end is allowed to play beneath the button s.
By this arrangement, the vdriving-wheelv E can' be elevated or lowered at pleasure.
I represents la lever, the front end of which is pivoted to' the upper surface of the plowfbeam, and the rear end resting on the bar j, which is secured to the seed-box.
k is a thin metal strap, pivoted tol lever I, at a right angle, and then enteringa slot between the bottom of `seed-box D and the top of hopper F.
The design of thestrap k is to regulate the size of the opening in seed-box D, through which the seed is discharged.
of wheel E, so that in planting seed at any required distance apart, the circumference of the driving-wheel must measure precisely the aforesaid distance.
The tube I), it will be seen, conveys the seed to the furrows.
Having thus described my invention,
What` I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
- 1. The straps m and n, in combination with wheel E, when constructed and arranged as and for the purpose described.
2. The straps m and n, in combinationl with wheel E, rods f and h, adjustable block e, and slide g, the whole constructed and arranged substantially as speciied. I
- 3. The plow A, in combination with seed-board), slide g, seed-stop k,`lever I, rest' j, rods f an'iih, adjustable block c, wheel E, and straps 'm and n, the whole being arranged asand for the purpose substantially as described.
In testimony thatI elaxn the foregoing as my own, I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
S. STOW.
