Attachment for Tractors. (open access)

Attachment for Tractors.

Patent for attachments in tractors. "This invention relates to tractors and has for its object the provision of means where by when the front axle and wheels of the tractor rise caused by rearing of the tractor, the clutch will be automatically disconnected and remain so until the front wheels of the tractor descend again into engagement with the ground. An important and more specific object is the provision in a tractor of a front axle formed n sections pivotally connected, one section being connected by suitable means with the clutch mechanism and the wheels serving as weights whereby when the tractor rears back and the front wheels leave the ground the axle sections will move relatively and exert a pull upon the means connected with the clutch whereby the clutch will be thrown out."
