Patent Number Date Title Name City Description
234,183 Nov. 09, 1880 Feed Cutter David S. Heebner Lansdale, Montgomery County, PA Abstract:
This invention has for its object to improve the construction and operation of that class of feed-cutting machines in which the material to be cut is drawn from a box or trough by means of feeding-rollers into position to be operated upon by a rotary cutting knife or knives and a cooperating stationary cutter and the invention consists, first, in providing one of the feed-rolls with corrugations adapted to cooperate with a stationary knife to cut off the material that winds about said1 roll.
Claim:
In a feed-cutter, the combination of a feed- roll provided with ribs or corrugations and a stationary knife or cutter adapted to cooperate with the corrugations of said feed-roll and cut off the material that winds around said roll.

263,699 Sep. 05, 1882 Raking Attachment for Harvester Binders Josiah D. Heebner Lansdale, Montgomery County, PA Abstract:
My invention relates to that class of harvester-binders in which the cut grain falls upon an endless grain-platform and is carried by the latter direct to the binding mechanism to be bound, or else to an elevator, to be by that in turn conveyed to the binding mechanism and it consists in certain novel improvements in construction and combinations of parts.
Claim:
The endless platform, constructed of bars or slats of pyramidal shape in cross-section and forming close joints with each other at their bases, and means for articulating said bars together.
278,956 Jun. 05, 1883 Harvester Binder Josiah D. Heebner Lansdale, Montgomery County, PA Abstract:
This invention relates to improvements in that class of harvester-binders' which cut the grain, bind it into bundles, and discharge the bound bundles from the machine, all automatically and without the intervention of hand labor; and the invention consists in certain novel details of construction and combinations of parts.
Claim:
In a harvester and binder in which the binding mechanism is located at one edge of the -grain-platform, an endless chain or chains arranged within the platform, in combination with the pivoted rake-teeth and mechanism whereby said rake-teeth are caused to rise above the top of the platform as they move toward the binding mechanism, remain elevated during a portion of their backward movement, and then descend below the top of the platform. for the remainder of their backward movement.
285,129 Sep. 18, 1883 Horse Power Tread David S. Heebner Lansdale, Montgomery County, PA Abstract:
This invention relates particularly to that class of horse-power treads known as "level treads".
Claim:
In a level-tread horse-power, the combination of the lag-carrying links, made higher at one end than at the other, and the connecting-rods, with a carrying or supporting reel consisting of plain-faced wheels or pulleys mounted upon a shaft and adapted to be gripped by the connecting-rods.
286,300 Oct. 09, 1883 Brake for Machine Wagons David S. Heebner Lansdale, Montgomery County, PA Abstract:
Our invention has for its object to provide improved means for locking stationary, while in operation, the transporting-wheels of thrashing-machines, horse-powers, baling-presses, portable engines, and other portable machines.
Claim:
As a means for locking the transporting-wheels of thrashing-machines and other portable machines and engines, a locking contrivance consisting of beams extending across and under the lower timbers or sills of the machine, having brake-shoes for cooperating with the wheels, in combination with bolts extending diagonally from the beams to the frame of the machine, with means applied to said bolts for forcing the beams up against the timbers or sills of the machine, and their shoes upon the periphery of the wheels. so as to strengthen and support the frame of the machine and transfer a proportion of the weight to the rims of the wheels, substantially as described. The combination, with the machine or engine and its transporting-wheels, of the brake-beams and their shoes, the clamping-bolts passed diagonally from the beams and connected at one end to the frame of the machine or engine, and provided at the opposite end with nuts for clamping the beams up against the frame, and the shoes onto the wheel-rims.

1,213,192 Jan. 23, 1917 Straw Cutting Machine Daniel G. Heebner Lansdale, Montgomery County, PA Abstract:
One object of my invention is to provide a straw cutting machine which will be of simple construction and which can be operated with comparatively little power.
Claim:
The combination in a straw cutting ma-chine, of cutting means, a pair of feed rolls, one of said rolls having a plurality of ribs arranged in staggered formation and operative to engage and hold the straw during the cutting of the latter by said cutting means. and another roll having flexible strips designed to wipe and slightly compress the straw prior to the passing of the same between the feed rolls.
