Patent for improvements in draft-gear by using a drive wheel and an arcuate guide to maintain the line of draft from the load to the center of the main or drive axle irrespective of the position of the load relative to the engine (lines 17-20). Illustration is included.
Patent for an invention relating to the engines of tractors that provides "improved transmission gearing for controlling the movements of the machine." (lines 17-18)
Patent for a header device intended for the cutting of maize, sorghum, kafir, and other crops so that the plant heads land on a header platform without too much stalk accompanying the head.
Patent for a port-regulating valve. It is meant for use in steam-engines and regulates the steam in engines that the inventor had previously patented (No. 523,360). "The invention consists of a slide-valve for covering each port leading from the steam-chest to the rock-valve, with means for operating such slide-valves from the shaft controlling the rock-valve, and a link movement for adjusting the throw of the slide-valves and which is under the control of the engineer" (lines 21-28).
Patent for "reversible reciprocating steam engines, its objects being to simplify the mechanism for reversing the valve, and to provide a valve in which the area of steam pressure upon its face is reduced to the minimum." (Lines 14-19) Includes instructions and illustrations.
Patent for a rotary valve for steam-engines that has a simplified valve and less pressure on the valve. It has a rocking valve that is "operating within a steam chest independent of the cylinder and connected therewith by pipes entering through the cylinder ends, a cam movement being provided for rocking the valve" (lines 21-25).
Patent for a frame and steering device for traction engines allowing easier movement and control of a traction device because the engine can be steered through one of the traction wheels.
Patent for an improved transmission mechanism for changing speed of tractors and other machines, with illustrations. The improvement is in the arrangement and assembly of the component parts to improve efficiency and to provide several different forward speeds as well as a reverse speed.
