. UNITED STATES JACOB SEIBEL, OF MANLIUS,'ILLINOIS.
PATENT OFFICE..
IMPROVEMENT IN HARVESTERS. I]
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. l16.502, dat-ed February 21, 1865.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, J AcoB SEIBEL, of Manlius, in the county of Bureau and State of Illinois, have invented a new and useful Im# provement in Harvesters; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings and letters of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification, and in which- Figure l represents a top view of my harvester; Fig. 2, a side elevation of the same, and Fig. 3 a vertical sectional view at the red line a: in Fig. l. 1
The nature of my invention consists in having two endless aprons, which carry the grain to the center of the machine, whence it is raked to the binders, and in the construction of the sickle-frame, so that the grain is taken from the sickle-bar the moment it is cut, and ,also in a novel device for raising and lowering the sickles and for guiding the machine as it is moved forward.
To enable those skilled in the art 4to manufacture and use my invention, I will proceed to describe it with particularity.
The samevletters of reference represent corresponding parts in the different figures.
A is the drive-wheel, and has on its inside the gearing B, which drives a pinion whose shaft is C. rIhis shaft C has 'its bearings on the frame of the harvester at a a. On the said shaft C there are two miter-wheels, D and E, which-form bevels, respectively, with H and F. The shafts of H and F have their bearings at c b and on h, and form the rollers on which the endless aprons M and N roll, each turning toward the center of the machine. On the shaft of H there is an eccentric, I, the
v revolutions of which drive the pitman-rod J,
and said pitman-rod J, being attached Eto the lever K, which has its fulcrum at e, and is attached to the sickle-bar at f, vibrates it, thus driving the sickle-bar L. The sickle-frame g has a notch taken out of one corner, in which the sickle-bar is placed. There is also attached to the back side of the sickle-frame a strip of iron, 71 which extends up about three-fourths of an inch above the sickle-frame g, and it also extends below the endless aprons, and has its lower edge turning in under them, for the purpose of holding ends of boards which conbe more'readily carried away without getting turned lengthwise of 'the aprons..
O is a center' piece onto which the grain is carried. It is bentvdown in the center, as
shown in Fig. 3, and is sufficiently wide to hold grain enough for a bundle. The raker, standing on the platform P, rakes the grain, as fast as it accumulates onO in quantities large enough for a bundle, up onto the platform Q.
There is a small strip, Z, cut out of Q to enable the binders who stand on the platforms R and S to put the bands under the grain for binding. The binders, as they bind the bundles, throw them into the bundle-holder T until there is enough there for a shock, when one of the binders takes hold of the handlem, and, by turning T on its bearings n a, pours the bunp dles out ofthe bundle-holder T onto the ground at the side of the machine.
U is the tongue or draft-pole of the harvest= er, with eveners attached for applying the draft, as shown in the drawings.
LV is a lever, by means of which the opei1 ator, `sitting at X. can'raise and lower the machine;l and Wis a standard with notches, into which the spring-catch q catches to hold the said lever Vin place.
X is a seat for the operator, and is attached to an iron rod that extends down, and is connected to the wheel Y in such a manner that the operator, by turning .the seat X, turns the wheel Y and thereby guides the machine in any direction he chooses.
Z is barely a footstool for the operator.
The tongue U is joined to the machine with a joint, p, so kthat the front part of the machine can be more readily raised and lowered. The bolts and screws s, that fasten the frame that contains the endless aprons M and N, as well as the center piece, O, to the frame of the machine, are made removable, so that all that part of the machine. in front of the cross-piece t, to-
v gether with the center piece,0,the bevel-wheels F and H, and the lever K, can betaken off` and laid aside. This is so constructed in order that a device for picking corn, for which I am also about to make application for Letters Patent,
mayy be attached to vthe` same machine, thus (enabling the farmer to use the same machine for harvesting his grain and pickinghis corn.I
It is readily seen that great advantage is gained by bringing the rakers and binders platforms'to the middle of the machine directly onto the frame thereof, and also in being able to attach the draft-pole of the machine directly at the center of draft, so as to avoid all side-draft, sol objectionable to most' machines in use. y c
Having thus fully described the construction and operation of my harvester, What'I claim as my invention, and desire t0 secure by Letters Patent, is-
l. The centrally-arranged receiver 0, con-` structed as described, in combination With the 4two endless aprons revolving toward the center `of the machine and depositing thev `rakers stand P and the binders stands R andA S, when arranged on the main frame of the machine near the center thereof, substantially as and for the purposes herein described.`
