 YOUNG'S SELF-RAKINC. RKAPINC; MACHINE. 



On September 18, i860, a United States patent was granted to 

 McClintock Young for improvement in harvester rakes. The novelty 

 consisted in combining with an overhung reel, of the Ogle type, an 

 automatic rake adapted to be folded by a suitable cam to a position 

 parallel with the reel arms, and serve, in fact, as a reel arm. By means 

 of a stationary cam its pivotal support was held in a vertical position for 

 a time, and by an arm upon the reel shaft proper swung upon a plane 

 parallel with the cutting apparatus at the proper interval, and the gavel 

 thus delivered to the ground. 



This rake was applied by Mr. Young to McCormick reapers, and 

 manufactured and sold for many years by the predecessors of the 

 McCormick Harvesting Machine Company, of Chicago.
