JOHN ALONZD JOCOY, 0E TOVVANDA, PENNSYLVANIA.
EDDIE-HOPPER.
Specification of Letters Patent. Patent-ed Apr. 12, 1910.
Application filed November 2, 1909. Serial No. 525,908.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that 1, JOHN .ALONZQ JocoY, a citizen. of the United States, residing at Towanda, in the county of Bradford and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain. new and useful improvements in Food lloppers; and I do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the .may be readily taken to pieces and packed into a small space.
With the foregoing and other objects in view, the invention consists of certain novel features of construction, combination and arrangement of parts, as will-be more fully described and particularly pointed out .lll
' ing s, 1 denotes the main or the hopper, which is preferably of circular the appended c aim.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 1s a side View of. a hopper constructed in accordance with my invention; Fig. 2 is e vertical sectional view of the same; Fig. 3.
is a horizontal sectional. View on the line 3-3 of Fig. 1.
Referring more particularly to the drawbody portion of form and tapers gradually from its upper toward its lower end, as shown. Bolted or otherwise removablj secured to the lower end of the hopper, is an outwardly and downwardly flaring base section 2. The tion 2 is provided on its lower end with an outwardly projecting annular flange Below the body portion 1 of the hopper,-
is arranged a tray 4 having a. {hinged upper edge. Arranged in the tray 4 gind spaced at suitable distance an annular rim or hand 5, on the upper edge of which is formed an inwardly projecting annular flange 6. Secured to the flange 3 of the base 2 and the huge 3 of the ring 5 and covering the space between said parts, is a wire grating, said ffil'zlling being prefer ably formed by c crirnpcd or corrugated from the sides thereof, is
wire rod which is soldered or otherwise secured at its bends to the flanges 3 and 6, shown.
Arranged in the center of the tray 4 and PI'QJGCUDB up into the base portion of the hopper, a food deflecting cone The cone 8 and the ring or band 5 are secured. in position in the tray l by a. series of straps 9, said straps having right angular-l bent upwardly projecting ends it, which are riveted or otherwise rigidly secured to the inner side. of the ring: or "and 5, end have. their inner ends bent upwardly etan angle corresponding to the incli the sides of the deflector 8 with n llUll said ends are engaged to hold the dcflectorin place. The horizontal portions ofthe stir-ops 9 are securedto the bottom of the lioppe bolts 11 whereby the straps may be red removed to permit the. separation of parts, with which they are oh raged.
'The artsnre prefer-obi f mlned of galvnnizec sheet metal and t :e upper edge of the main or body portion of the hopper is bonded and reinforced by a wire ring. The hopper is also provided with abail 12 by means of which the same may be readily earned. or suspended at any desirable elevation by acord or other suitable suspend .ing device. By thus supporting the hopper, the lattermay be held zit-various olevellone for feedinfi poultry of diflerent sizes. In uslng the oppor, the feed. is placed. in the main body portion and. is fed therefrom through the inclined. passage formed by the flaring base 2 of the hopper andthe defleeting cone 8 into the feed pocket formed ion of by the annular ring or band 5 below the grating 7. The grating prevents the towls from scattering the feed, while the space between the ring and the ofthe' tray 4: serves to cetch nny particles of food which may be dropped by the fowls while feeding, thus preventing any wneting of the principle or sacrificing any of the advan tages of the invention, as defined in the up pended claim.
Having thus described my invention, What I claim is:
In a food hopper, a tapered body portion, a fiaringbase removably secured to the lower end of said hopper, a tray arranged below said base, an annular rin arranged in said tray, said ring being of Tess diameter than the tray to form a space between, the same and the sides of the tray, a coneshaped deflector arranged in the tray and projecting upwardly into the hopper, a series of right angularly formed straps secured to said ring and detachably secured to the bottom of the tray, whereby said ring is detachably secured in place, upwardly bent cone engaging ends formed on said straps, to secure the cone in the center of the tray, a corrugated wire rod arranged over the space between the base and said angular flange, and a bail secured to the upper end of the hopper.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand in presence of two subscribing witnesses.
JOHN ALONZO JOCOY.
