Dusting and spraying machine
|
James O. Gulledge |
Santa Ana, CA |
This invention "is particularly directed to an apparatus or machine for dusting or spraying insecticides, fungicides, or like and similar solutions or dusts onto trees, plants or the like..." The machine was truck-mounted, with the pump powered via the truck engine, with a clutch in the PTO (power take-off) between engine and machine.
This patent is of interest because the inventor would later establish Gulledge Machine Works, makers of rotary tables, indexing heads, and milling-machine vises. |
