This invention relates to certaiD improve- 

 ments in sulky-plows, and it has for its ob- 

 jects to provide for conveniently depressing 

 the plow so that it will properly enter the 

 ground, for elevating it so as to pass over 

 stones, stumps, or other obstructions, or to 

 permit the apparatus to be transported from 

 place to place, and to provide for readily ad- 

 justing the parts relatively so that the plow 

 may be worked close up to a fence, wall, or 

 hedge, as more fnliy hereinafter specified. 

 These objects I attain by the apparatus illus- 

 trated in the accompanying drawings, in 

 which — 



1. In comtuuation with the bent axle A, the 

 knuckle or jointed lever R, secured thereto and 

 to the pluw-tongue U, the saui lever being 

 provided with au extension, W, on one mem 

 ber, which is adapted to engage the other 

 member, substantially as and for the purpose 

 specified. 



2. In combination with the jointed lever R, 

 bent axle A, and tongue U, the set-screw B', 

 adapte<l to bear against the lever, substan 

 tially as and for the purpose specified. 



3. In a sulky-plow, the combination of tongoe 

 U, having at its rear end and attached thereto 

 plates D' D', with axle A, clips E' E', adjust- 

 able collar rt', and stirrup F, which secures to 

 the beam of the plow both the asle and tongue, 

 all substantially as hcreiu described. 



4. In a sulky-plow, the combination of the 

 slotted and adjustable clamp G, liaving a 

 colter or gago wheel attached to its lowei 

 end, with the tongue C and the plow-beam, 

 substantially as and for the purpose set forth.

This invention relates to a novel coustrnc- 

 tioa and combination of a sulky and certain 

 deviceaconuected therewith, which are adapted 

 to be applied to and co-operate with any ordi- 

 nary plow, and by means of which said plow 

 can", when required, be raised out of tbe ground 

 with the greatest facility and without materi- 

 ally straining the sulky. 



In combination with the wheel W, provided 

 with the concentric rim R, bail B, pivoted on 

 the sulky- frame, step 9, and clutch 6 o, con- 

 nected to said bail, tho bail B', arranged at 

 the rear of bail B, and connected therewith by 

 the strap (?, the rearward -projecting arm A, 

 secured to tho bail B', tbe plow P, pivoted to 

 the sulkylraine. and the chain e, connecting 

 the arm A with the rear extremity of the plow- 

 beam, all constructed and combined substan- 

 tially m the manner described and shown, for 

 the purpose set forth.

 My improvement relates to a novel construc- 

 tion adapting the power of the team to be ap- 

 plied directly to the freeing the plow from ob- 

 structions in its path— such as stumps, heavy 

 stones, &c.; and it consists in providing the 

 wheel -carriage with a telescopic or sliding 

 tougue, to the sliding part of which the plow 

 is connected by a chain or other suitable tlexi 

 bio connection, in such manner that when the 

 team is backed to free the plow from au-ob 



strnction thcslitbng tongue acts directly upon 

 tho plow to swing it clear of tho obstruction, 

 instead of indirectly through the carriage, as 

 hereinafter explained. 



1. In a wheel-plow, tho combination, with 

 the plow, of tbe sliding pole or tongue, and 

 means adapting the backward sliding move- 

 ment of said tongue to lift the plow free from 

 obstrnctions or out of the ground. 



2. The combination, in a wheei-plow or its 

 equivalent, of the sliding pole or tongue, the 

 plow having a hinged connection with the 

 frame, and the cord or chain connecting said 

 plow and tongue, arranged to lift the plow 

 when the tougu© is backed, substantially as 

 described. 



3. The combination, with the frame of a 

 wheel-plow or its equivalent, of the fixed pole- 

 beam E, sliding pole F, and cord or chain G, 

 arranged and operating substantially as de- 

 scribed, whereby the backward movement of 

 the tongue is made to lift the plow free from 

 an obstruction.

Tbe iuvention consists in the couibination, 

 with the forward part of the plow-beam, of a 

 hook or catch to engage with the foot-rest or 

 a catch attached thereto, whereby the said for- 

 ward end of the plow-beam wilt be locked in 

 place as the plow is raised and utdocked as 

 the plow is lowered, as will bo hereinafler fidly 

 described. 



The combination, with the torward part of 

 the plow-beam D of a sulky-plow, of a hook or

 catch attached thereto, substantially as herein 

 shown and described, whei-eby the said for- 

 ward end of the plow-beam will be locked in 

 place as the plow is raise^l and unlocked as the 

 plow is lowered, as set forth.
