KIMMEL, OF WASHINGTON, DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA ROTARY SPIRAL PLOW 7 Original No. 1,690,922, dated November 6, 1928', Serial No. 232,887, filed November 12, 1927. Application for reissue filed January 18, 1230. Serial No. 421,822.
This invention relates to a rotary spiral plow and has for its object to provide, in a manner as hereinafter set forth, a plow of such class including a rotatable cylinder havg ing one or more plow elements helically disposed throughout the periphery thereof and with the plow share element constructed in a manner to provide for a thorou hly efficient working or cutting of the groun during the lii travel of the plow.
A further object of the invention is to provide, in a manner as hereinafter set forth, a rotary plow including one or more helically disposed plow share elements, and further is including a combined reciprocatory and oscillatory spring controlled means intermittently engaging with the plow share elements for cleaning them in a satisfactory manner during the travel of the plow;
Further objects of the invention are to provide, in a manner as hereinafter set forth, a rotary plow which isv comparatively simple in its construction and arrangement, strong, durable, compact, thoroughly efficient in its siuse, conveniently assembled, and comparatively inexpensive to set up. i
With the foregoing and other objects in view the invention consists of the novel construction, combination and arran ement of ik parts as hereinafter more specifically described, and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein is shown an embodiment of the invention, but it is to be understood that changes, variations and modificaas tions can be resorted to which fall within the scope of the claims hereunto appended.

Figure 6 is a fragmentary View, in section, illustrating the lap joint between a pair of plow share members or sections.
A rotary plow, in accordance with this invention, includes a horizontally disposed rectangular frame having the side bars thereof indicated at 1, 2, the front bar at 3 and the rear bar at 4. The front bar 3 projects forwardly and is of arcuate shape. The front bar 3 is provided with a series of spaced openings 5 for adjustably connecting a hitch thereto. Each side bar is provided centrally thereof with an enlarged portion 5 formed with a central transversely extending opening 6. The enlarged portions 5' form bearings for a shaft 7, carrying stop collars 8 which are positioned within the frame and arrest lengthwise shifting of the shaft 7, or mother words the collars 8 act to maintain the shaft 7 in set position with respect to the frame.
Bodily carried with the shaft 7 is a rotatable. supporting element of appropriate diameter and of a length less than'the distance from one side bar to the other side bar of the frame. Preferably the supporting element is in the form of a cylinder or drum which rotates with the shaft 7 and comprises a hollow body portion 9 closed at each end by a flanged head 10.
The flanges of the heads 10 are indicated at 11, and hold-fast devices 12 are employed for securing the heads 10 within the body portion 9 at the end-s thereof. Each head 10 is formedwith an axial opening 13 for the passage of the shaft 7 andsecured to the 99 outer face of each head 10, centrally thereof, is a flanged casting 14. The flange of the casting 14 is indicated at 14 and it is fixedly secured to a head by the holdfast devices 15. Each casting 14 is formed with an axial openi 16 which registers with an opening 13. T e casting is fixedly secured to the shaft77 by a diametrically extending rivet or pm 1 Disposedv throughout the outer peripher of the body'portion 9 is a plow share of le hand helical form preferably consisting of a plurality of helical plow share forming elements, one forming a continuation of the other. Preferably two of such elements are employed and generally indicated at 18. It is to be understood however, that many of such elements can be employed as desired.
Each element 18 is formed "of a series ofv helices or share members or sections 19 of like construction. I
The helices or members or sections 19 of each element 18 have a lap joint connection therebetween, as shown in Figure 6. The
opposed ends of said members or sections 19 are rabbeted as at 20, arranged in overlapping positions, and detachably connected together by the holdfast devices 21. Each helix or share member or section 19 is of substantially concave-convex in transverse section with the concave side thereof facin toward the right hand side of the plow. ee Figure 2. Each share memberor section 19 has the inner side of each-helix thereof seated directly against the outer periphery of the cylinder, by
the'holdfast devices 22.
In vertical section, at any point throughout the length of a share forming element, the outer edge of the latter is arranged out of alinement with respect to the inner edge thereof. Each helix includes an outer and .an inner portion and with the former upon a greater are than that of the latter.-
Carried by the rear bar 4 of the frame and projecting forwardly therefrom is a combiped ,reciprocatory and oscillatory spring controlled means which is adapted to intermittently engage with the plow share element or elements for cleaning it or them in a satisfactory manner during the travel of the plow. The said. cleaning means comprises a pair of spaced, parallel bars 23, 24 and with the. former arranged forwardly of the latter.
Theba'rs 23, 24, are connected together at their ends by the coupling devices 25., The bar 24 is arranged forwardly of the rear'bar 40f the fra'me, -arranged-iin parallelism with respect thereto, and spaced therefrom. The bar 23 is of square cross section and the bar 24 of cylindrical, cross section. Secured to and extended-forwardly from the bar 23 is a series of spaced cleaner members 26 for hearing a ainst the plow share element or elements.
a e bar 24 is slidably supported by aseries as of apertured, forwardly directed supporting of the soil.
members 27 arranged in spaced relation, and fixedly secured to the rear bar 4 of the frame by the holdfast devices 28. The number 0 supporting members is three and carried by.
the bar 24' and bearing against the central supporting member 28 is a coiled controlling spring 29, confined on the bar 24 between a collar 30 and said central supporting member. The spring 29 functions .to maintain the bars 23, 24 and cleaner members 26 in the position shown in Figure 1. The bars 23, 24 are shifted in the direction of the arrow Figure 4, against the action of the controlling spring 29, by the coils of the plow share element or elements. The bar 24 is provided with a stud 32, which rides against a cam piece 33 extending forwardly from the rear bar 4 of the frame. The cam ieoe 33 is secured to the rear bar 4 by the hol fast devices 34. The
cam piece 33 includes an upstanding arcuate part 35 arranged forwardly of the bar 4 and provides in connection with stud 32 for moving the bars 23, 24 in an upward direction to elevate the members 26 to clear the helices of the plow share elements or element. This action ishad by the riding of stud 32 against,
part 35 when the coils of'the share element act to shift bars 23, 24 in the direction of the arrow. After the cleaning members are elevated, the spring 29 act to move the bars 23, 24 in the opposite direction and the cleaning members lower to normal position by gravity. The reciprocation movement of the cleaning means is had through the medium of spring 29 and helices'of the plow share element or elements, and the oscillatory movement of the cleaning means is had through the medium of the stud 32, cam 33 and 'spring29.
The movement of the cleaning means in one direction, during its oscillatory movement, is causedby the stud 32 and cam piece 33 and the movement in the opposite direction is had by gravity. The construction and arrangement of the cleaning devices provides for the intermittent engagement thereof with the coils of the plow share element or elements.
By way of example, it will be assumed that the helices of the plow share element or elements are spaced eight inches apart than the movement of the cleaning means to the left would be ten inches and to the right ten inches. The extent of movement of the cleaning means will depend upon the distance the helices are spaced from each other.
In Figure 1, one of the plow share elements is indicated at A and the other at B, and which coact to prov'idethe plow share of left hand helical form, having the concave face thereof opening toward the right side of the plow. The construction and arrangement of the plow share will provide when the latter is act-ivc,'for the avoiding of side draft and frictionincidental to the cutting and turning The rotatable supporting element is disposed at rightangles to the line of draft and rotates during the travel of the plow to provide for the share of helical form are not in permanent engagement with the plow share elements, but are shifted to intermittently engage therewith for the purpose of cleaning the same.
It is thought the many advantages of a rotary plow, in accordance with this invention can be readil understood, and although the preferred em odiment of the invention is as illustrated and described, yet it is to be understood that changes in the details of construction can be had which will fall Within the scope of the invention as claimed.
