SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent 1\`|'o. 724,005, dated March 31, 1903.'

Application iiled September 17, 1902. Serial No. 123,710. (Nomodel.)

To all whom it may concern: Be it known that I, EDWIN HALL, a'resident of Leroy, in the county of Genesee and StateA of NewYork, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Plow-Beam Attachments; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enabie others skilled in the art to which it pertains to make and use the saine.

This invention relates to blow-beam attachments, and has for its object to provide means for adjustably securing a standard for a jointer, wheel, or other like device in a iirm and secure manner to a plow-beam.

The invention consists in the construction hereinafter described, and pointed out in the claims.

In the accompanying drawings,"Figure-l is a side view of a part of a plow-beam, showing astandard and means for securing it to the beam. Fig. 2 is a plan View of the same. Fig. 3 is a section on line 3 3 of Fig. 2. Fig.

4 is a similar sectionshowin g a modified bearing-frame.' Fig. 5 is a view like Fig.: l, but showing the standard and its securing devices on the opposite side of the beam. Figs. 6 and 7 are sectional views, on a smaller scale than the other. gures, showing a standard carrying a wheel in one figure, the standard being on one sideof the beam and in theother figure being on the opposite side of the beam. V

Numeral l denotes a plowrbeam having grooves 2 and ribs 3, separated by shoulders,

4this particular construction being unessen` tial.

5 denotes a bearing or bearing-frame having approximately the form of an oblique-angle parallelogram and having angular seats 6 to receive an angular standard 7. The said seats 6 extend outward from the general level of the frame and comprise each the parts 8,'

ings, as in Fig. 3.

itis illustrated as having a square section,

whichform is preferred,'though not essential.

,and 16 is a nut to draw the eyebolt and tightly secure'the standard in the frame.

The construction provides for holding a jointer, wheel,or other standard in a posi- 6o tively secure manner, but which permits its easy lengthwise adjustment. It also provides that the standard may be fixed to either side of the beam, (see Figs. 6 and 7,) and thus permit a Wheel to be supported to run either at the side of the beam, as usual, or immediately under it to roll down loose manure, grass, straw, loose sod, and the like in the path of a jointer, colter, or plowshare.

It will beA seen from Figs. l and 5 that the 7o inclination ofzthe standard is reversed when changed from one side of the beam to the other, whereby it may either push or trail, according to its adjustment.

I n Fig. 4 frame 5 has but one angular bear- 75 ing 6, formed by parts 8, instead of two bear- This construction maybe used; but the construction with two bearings is preferred.

Having thus described my invention, what 8o Icl'aim as new, and desire t secure by Letters Patent, is- I Y i 1. In combination with a' plow beam .grooved on each side the standard-holding frame having an angular seatincli'ned to the 85 p' frame and to the beam andv thereby adapted to hold a standard .inclined to the length of the beam', the standard fitting the seat, and

.having an angular eye to receive the standard, said frame being applicable to either side roo Of a plow-beam, and a Washer having projections to tit the beam-grooves under either adjustment of the frame.

3, The open frame having approximately the form of an Oblique-angled paralielogram and having the elevated parts S to for-m seats for a standard, in combination with a standard and with means adapted to secure the standardand frame to a plowbeam, said frame having the lips ll.

4. The Open frame having approximately the form of an Obliqne-angied parallelogram and having the elevated parts 8 to form seats *for a standard, in combination with a standard and-With means adapted to secure the I5 specification in the presence of two snbscribzo ing Witnesses.
