` JACOB J. HARPEL, OF LEBANON, PENNSYLVANIA.
Laim Patent No. 95,681, dated october 12, 1869.
-To all lwhom it may concern Be it known that I, JACOB J. HARPEL, of Lebanon, in the county of Lebanon, and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Corn- Planters; and I do hereby declare that the following is a inll and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon.
In the accompanying drawingsl `igure 1 is a top View of my improved corn-planter. Figure 2 is a bottom view ot` a detached vpart ot'- the machine.
Figures 3 and 4 are also detached views.
My corn-plante`r is intendedto plant two rows of corn at the saine time. The travelling-wheels and main frame may be of any suitable form, as seen in tig. l, where one of the seed-boxes is represented as A', provided with holes, to measure the amount of seed for each hill. From the holes in this feed-wheel, the corn alls into the hole or slot B', iu the reciprocating feed-slide BT fig. 2. This slide is moved backand forth by the lever C, and drops a hill at each stroke of the lever, either to the right vor left.
The feed-wheel A is attached'to a bevel-gear wheel, D, which engages with another bevel-gear wheel, E, upon the axle of the driving or travelling-Wheel of the machine, and thus the feed-wheel is set in motion.
This bevel-gear wheel E is put loosely o the axle, and lockedw thereto by cam and clutch H and pin I, Operated by the coiled spring 'K and elbow-rod G, so that the gear-Wheel Will move when the machine goes forward, and rest when the travelling-wheel moves backward. Therefore, they dropping proceeds when the machine goes forward, but stops when the machine moves backward,
A hook, P,1ocks the lever M,.and thus supports the.
boot.- A
In addition to the above'arrangemcnt, the bootis `provided with a. pair ol adjustable wheels, R, oonnected by a short axle, bolted to the front ofthe boot. By this means, the depth to which the boot enters' the ground is regulated by these small wheels.
The boot is also provided with a hinge, S,and a rubber spring, F, thus making the boot flexible, and capable of swinging back when the point of the boot strikes a stone or other obstacle, and completely prevent breaking the boot or other parts of the machine upon catching a stone. As soon as the boot passes the stone, the point of the boot is promptly brought' to the working position.
Having thus described my invention, l claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent- 1. The combination of the cut-off with the wheel A, so arranged-as to stop the discharge of seed whe'n the slide lor cut-ofi' is at rest, and during its stroke to let' the seed pass through theslot B', by the operation vof theseed-wheel A,substantially as set forth.
2. The. wheels It and short axle fastened to the front of' thel boot, substantially as set forth.
3. The arrangement and combination ofthe pulleys 0, chains L andN, lever M, boot T, and gum spring F, all constructed andoperated substantially as set forth. l
J. J HARPEL.
