Description: |
| My invention relates to that class of horse hay-rakes in which a rake revolving on a horizontal axis is hinged to a frame travelling on wheels, the rake sliding on the ground with its teeth parallel to its surface, and being tipped or revolved by its tooth sticking into the ground and my improvement consists in a novel mode of constructing such a rake, as hereinafter shown.
I am aware that rakes of this class have heretofore been used, and do not claim, broadly any of the elements above described, but having thus fully described the construction and operation of my improved rake, what I do claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is:
1. The combination of the main frame S, the vibrating rake-frame A C, the rocking frame m, and the lever p, when all these parts are constructed and arranged for joint operation as and for the purpose described.
2. The combination, in a two-wheeled horse-rake, of rigid shafts projecting from the axle, a driver's seat mounted on the front cross-bar near the left shaft, a vertically vibrating frame hinged to the rear of the axle and carrying a revolving rake, a rocking frame pivoted to the vibrating frame, and carrying springs to control the rake, and a lever pivoted on the vibrating frame linked to the rocking frame, and carrying a hook taking into an eye on a standard in front of the axle, by which to fasten the rake when lifted up, all constructed, arranged, and operating as described. |
