Abstract:
My invention. elates to improvements in manure spreaders, and the object of my improvement is to provide means for adjusting the sprocket chains which drive the beater drum so that they may be used on the driving sprocket wheels affixed to the wagon wheels of the spreader, such adjustment being in the spacing apart to accommodate different running-gears of greater or less widths apart.
Claim:
In a manure-spreader, the combination with a body supported on carrying-wheels having driving-sprocket-wheels secured to their inner faces, of a shaft rotatably mounted transversal to said body, a horizontally adjustable sprocket-wheel secured to each end of said shaft, a horizontally adjustable idler sprocket-wheel rotatably mounted on a stub-shaft on each side of said body, a sprocket-chain on each side of said body passing about the idler and the driven-sprocket-wheel on the same side, each of said sprocket-chains being adapted to engage and be driven by the driving-sprocket-wheel on the same side. |
