.Bc it known that I, HENRY FARMER, of Pontiac, Oakland county, Michigan, have invented a new and improved Modebf Constructing Potato-Planters; and Ido hereby declare that the following is afull and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon. I
. The nature of my invention consists of a baud moving on rollers, which band has attached to it iron or other metallic fingers, which, taking the potatoes from a hopper, drop them behind the plough,
To enable others skilled in the art to make and use my invention, Iwill proceed t`o describe its construction and operation bya particular reference to the accompanying drawings, in which- 'Figure 1 gives a general exterior view of the complete planter,
A is the hopper, B is the drivers seat, and M the pole, to which the horses are hitched. -E is a wheel, which is moved by the axle of the large wheel F. R is a roller, shown in Figure 2, which presents a section ol' the machine. n n n n, in fig. 2, is a. belt or band, which passes around the wheel E and the roller 1t. The wheel E has cogs, so as to set in motion the band or belt n nan n. Attached to the belt or band n n u u is a series of iron or metallic fingers, of the form shown in Figure At the point l) there is a grate, through the bars of which the iron ingers pass when ,the band or belt n n n n is in motion. '.lhis grate, and the mode in which the fingers pass between the bars, are showuin Figure 4. D is a spout, which delivers the potatoes in the furrow just behind the plough, marked Gi H H arescrapers, which cover up the potato after it is dropped into the furrow. y
The action of the machine is substantially as follows: The`potatocs are put in the hopper A, and fall upon the, grate P, Where they are seized by the fingers on the belt passing through the bars of the grate; they are then carried over the roller R, and delivered into the spoutD, from whe'ucethey fall into the furrow made by the plough G, and are then covered up by the Scrapers H II.
The wheel E may be thrown out of gear bythe lever I, in the ordinary Inode. L is an attachment, by which the height of the ploughs may be regulated by the .use of the lever I and rod K, shown in'ig. .1. 'lhe ingers may be placed at longer or shorter intervals apart on the belt n n n n, as desired, to regulate thc spaces alt which the potatoes are to be dropped, the belt n n n '11. being pierced with holes at various spaces fer that purpose, the iron or metallic lingers being movable. The fingers are aliixed to the belt by a screw and nut, and are so arrangedrthat they may be made'to project a greater or lesser degree, as desired, so as to accommodate themselves to seize larger or smaller potatoes.
The construction of the machine may be varied by leaving out the belt n nu n and roller R, and by placing the ingers, in the mede above described, around the circumference of a single'whecl of the proper sico, to be set in motion in the same way as the wheel E. One of thelarge wheels of the planter is iixcd te the axle, so as to move the wheel E, and the other large exterior wheel, marked S, in fig. 1, is left free on the axle, so as to permit turning the machine around. The space also between the two large exterior wheels F and S, iig. l, may be increased or diminished, by moving them on the axle, which has holes and pins for that purpose. This I is for the object of regulating the distance between the rows of the potatoes when planted.
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is- The arrangementandcombinationfof the said iron ingers, hopper, and ploughs, acting together us and for the purpose above specied.
HENRY FARMER.
