I, Adolf OwschIJOWITZ of Straussbergerstrasse, Berlin, in the German Empire,
Manufacturer, do hereby declare the nature of said invention for "AN IMPROVED
PLOUGH to be as follows:-
The plough of this invention is provided with a removable and adjustable share and
a separate removable and adjustable share point, the object being to remove the
disadvantage which attends the use of ploughs with the whole of the share in one
piece, namely that the point of the same by undergoing more rapid wear than any
other part of the share, renders it necessary to repair the whole breadth of the share,
whereas according to this invention the point only need be repaired or replaced.
The share and the share point are connected to the body of the plough by means of
by means of screws or bolts, the larger part of the share having elongated screw or
bolt holes to allow of the share and share point being adjusted more or less in advance.
One or more keys may be used to stiffen or fix the share point more securely.

page_text: I, ADOLPH OWSCHIJOWITZ of Straussbergerstrasse, Berlin in-the-German Empire,
Manufacturer, do hereby declare the nature of said invention for "AN IMPROVED
PLOUGH" and in what manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly
described and ascertained in and by the following statement :-
The plough of this invention is provided with a removable and adjustable share
and a separate removable and adjustable share point, the object being to remove the
disadvantage which attends the use of ploughs having the whole of the share in
one piece, namely, that the point of the same by undergoing more rapid wear
than any other part of the share renders it necessary to repair the whole breadth
of the share whereas according to this invention the point only thereof need -be
repaired or replaced, or readjusted.
Referring to the accompanying drawings :—
Figs. 1, 2 and 3 shew such parts of a plough as are necessary to illustrate my
invention. The plough consists of the body h and the corresponding mould board k.
A casting serving for giving an increase of strength is fixed to the mould board k
by two bolts c. At its upper part it bears against the body h. The two screws
or bolts e also serve for fixing the share a and adjusting it in the direction of the
slit f. By this arrangement the wear of the coulter of the plough will not act
prejudicially on the position of this latter and it will not go unevenly. Further
the share may by this means be worn to the utmost and then resteeled. A heel
plate is fixed to the back part of the body h and may be renewed when worn.
It is partly dovetailed in and firmly fixed by a screw or bolt m.
Fig. 4 is a modification of the above arrangement shewn in a bottom view.
B is the plough body; a the share; d the share point of a piece of flat steel;
b a plate which in conjunction with the screws or bolts c (Fig. 1) connects the share
and point with the plough body. o is a bracket for adjusting the share point or bar d.
In a and d are holes i in which pins or studs in b and o are inserted and the relative
positions of a and d thus adjusted and fixed. When the share point or share gets
worn away it is only necessary to readjust either or both of these parts without
any recourse to smiths work. For light soils the share point should have a more
forward position than for heavy soils.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of
my
said invention
and in what manner the same is to be performed 1 declare that what I claim is :-
1. The plough with adjustable plough share and part applied within the same
substantially as described and shewn with reference to Figs. 1. 2. 3 of the drawings.
2. In combination with the adjustable plough share a, the share point d in the form
of a flat steel bar adjustable and fixed in position by means of plate 6 or bracket o
or both, substantially as described and shewn with reference to Fig. 4 of the drawings.
Dated this 23rd day of April 1887.
