650,049	May. 22, 1900	Former for Bending Angle-Beams	Edward P. Lynch	Salt Lake City, Salt Lake County, UT	Abstract: The method of using this device will be readily understood. Prior to subjecting the beam to the action of the bending-machine one of the formers or shapers (a series of the anvil -blocks of suitable length joined together) is placed between the angles to be bent, as shown in the drawings. In the case of an I-beam two formers are employed, one on each side of the web. Claim: A former consisting of a series of blocks constructed to have the two opposing operative faces of each pair of contiguous blocks converging from the inner curve of flexion to fa fixed fulcrum-line of bearing ,of one of said blocks on the other, and a flexible connecting device for said series located between the said curve of flexion and the line of the series of fulcra or bearings.
674,703	May. 21, 1901	Road Scraper	Edward P. Lynch	Salt Lake City, Salt Lake County, UT	Abstract: The present invention relates to the mechanism for effecting the rotation of the scraper ring or plate F or its adjustment around its vertical axis. To accomplish this, a series of gear-teeth are formed along the inner edge of the ring, they being concentric with its axis and of a number sufficient to permit as wide a range of adjustment as is desired. Claim: In a machine of the class described the combination with the adjustable scraper, the means for adjusting it, and the lock, entirely independent of the said adjusting means, for holding the scraper after adjustment, of a power-transmitting device adapted to actuate both the lock and the adjusting means.
676,468	Jun. 18, 1901	Ignition Plug for Gas Engines	Norman McClintock	Pittsburg, Allegheny County, PA	Abstract: Heretofore ignition-plugs have been made or proposed with electrodes-passing longitudinally through the plug and insulated therefrom by means of spools or blocks of porcelain; but it has been found impossible to properly and thoroughly pack the passageway around the electrodes and extending through the plug when the insulation is made of this material. The porcelain is not sufficiently yielding or elastic to insure that a tight joint or packing shall be attained. It does not fit accurately either the electrodes or the plug against which it bears. Again, the materials of this sort are fragile and are constantly liable to breakage because of the force applied to them by the fierce explosions which take place in the cylinders of explosive, engines. From both these causes (the lack of a perfect packing and the cracking or breaking of the insulators) -there have resulted leakage of the gas or vapors and products of combustion and also a loss of current due to the inferiority of the insulation. These difficulties I have avoided by employing a combined packing and insulating material which is elastic or yielding and capable of being drawn tightly against the electrodes and also against the seat for the packing in the plug or cylinder-wall, such packing and insulating material being provided in masses preferably made up of thin elastic refractory disks or sheets of suitable material, such as mica cut into the form of washers. Preferably these are used in the way above described-that is to say, a suitable number of the refractory washers are placed together to form a gasket. Claim: An ignition-plug for gas-engines, having longitudinal chambers each formed with an internal shoulder near its outer end, electrodes passing through said chambers and provided with clamping means or heads, insulating material surrounding the electrodes within said chambers and held against said shoulders, and insulating material at the head of the plug cooperating with the electrodes A o hold the material within said chamber against said shoulders.
676,481	Jun. 18, 1901	Straw Stacker	Edgar A. Wright	Canton, Stark County, OH	Abstract: I have shown a portion of a threshing and separating mechanism to which those devices are adapted to be connected which particularly embody the present invention; but it will be understood that s0 far as the thresher and separator are concerned they can be of any preferred sort. Claim: In a straw separating and stacking mechanism, the combination with the separator, of a lower stationary frame rigidly secured to the separator-frame, the rotary frame thereon, the horizontal carrier hinged at its inner end to the inner end of the rotary frame, the rear endless carrier hinged at its inner end to the outer end of the rotary frame, and the driving devices on the rotary frame for the carriers having separate permanent connections there-with, whereby said carriers are independent of each other in their movements on their hinges
676,482	Jun. 18, 1901	Straw Stacker	Edgar A. Wright	Canton, Stark County, OH	Abstract: In the drawings I have shown the rear part of a thresher and separator of one of the sorts adapted to have my improvements applied thereto. Claim: In a straw-stacking mechanism, the combination of a stationary frame, a rotary frame on the stationary frame a horizontal straw-carrier section on the rotary frame having its inner end hinged to said rotary frame, an outer rear carrier-section hinged to the outer end of the rotary frame, carriers on the said carrier-section, independent driving devices for each carrier, whereby the outer end of the horizontal carrier is left free relative to the outer carrier, power-transmitting devices at the axis of rotation of the rotary frame for actuating the carrier-driving devices, means for rotating the rotary frame also at the said axis, means for automatically reversing the movement of the rotary frame, and a main power-shaft actuating both of said sets of devices at the axis,
676,483	Jun. 18, 1901	Pneumatic Straw Stacker	Edgar A. Wright	Canton, Stark County, OH	Abstract: It will he observed that the pneumatic means for advancing the straw have independent and separated discharge-orifices arranged one in advance of the other and all arranged so that the blast, from each enters the straw passageway from below, and also with a movement in substantially the direction which is being taken by the straw as it advances toward the main delivery-duct, and from this arrangement it follows that the straw is successively both lifted and advanced by the air. Claim: The combination with a threshing-machine of the straw-delivery duct, the straw-receiving duct communicating therewith, the chaff-duct communicating therewith and situated below the straw-receiving duct, blast devices supplying air to all of said ducts, and means for dividing the blast to cause the same to act independently on the straw at different points.

708,949	Sep. 09, 1902	Motor Vehicle	Edgar A. Wright	Canton, Stark County, OH	Abstract: This invention relates to improvements in motor-vehicles, the object being to provide mechanism by which the power can be applied more efficiently and economically than it can be in any vehicles of this class with which I am acquainted. I so construct and arrange the parts that I can apply power to each of the four ground-wheels, and thus make available the entire tractive efficiency of those wheels; secondly, apply the power to the wheels of the front pair equally at all times, though they are moving at different speeds and in paths of different radii, and, thirdly, apply the power to the rear wheels in such way that they also shall be furnished with an equal degree of power although moving with different peripheral speeds, and, fourthly and particularly, apply the power to the rear pair of wheels and to those of the front pair in such way that the two pairs can move in different curves without interference from cramping or binding and without requiring that any wheel should slip in relation to the others. Claim: The combination of the truck-frame, the steering -wheels, the pivoting devices con-fleeting the steering-wheels with the truck-frame, the power-transmitting devices at the axis of the said pivoting devices for actuating the steering-wheels, and a motor situated between the front and rear wheels operating in lines transverse to the vehicle and connected with said power-transmitting devices, substantially as set forth. In a motor-vehicle, the combination of rear traction-wheels, front traction-wheels, as motor situated between said front and rear wheels and operating in planes transverse to the vehicle, power-transmitting devices extending longitudinally of the vehicle for transmitting power to said rear traction-wheels and to said front traction-wheels and power connections between the motor and said power-transmitting devices to actuate the same.
