35as it is seen that the end of the cylinder is of
such a length that it extends beyond the most
outward movement of the sieve-box C, and
thus the trash is discharged clear of the box
C. The cotton-seed all passes from the cyl-
inder together with the fine portion of the
trash or dirt; but the reciprocation of the
sieve-box C causes all of the small seeds and
dirt to pass therethrough, while the large and
perfect seed pass to the rear end and are dis-
charged through the opening c into a recep-
tacle placed below for that purpose. When
the cylinder is removed and the seed fed to
the reciprocating sieve - box, they would be
fed adjacent the forward end in order that all
small trash and seeds may pass therethrough;
but in this case the larger trash that could not
pass through the screen would pass out with
the large or perfect seed.
Having thus described my invention, what
I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters
Patent, is-
1. The combination with a su pporting-frame,
of a reciprocating sieve-frame within the sup-
porting-frame and extending above the same,
upwardly-extending removable supports car-
ried by the side of said supporting-frame,
rings formed in said supports above the recip-
rocating frame, and a rotary screen within said
rings above the reciprocating frame.
2. The combination with a supporting-frame,
of a reciprocating sieve-frame within the sup-
porting-frame and extending above the same,
upwardly-extending removable wire-supports
carried by the side of said supporting-frame,
rings formed in said supports, above the re-
ciprocating frame, a rotary screen within saidrings above the sieve - frame and concaved
plates carried by the rotary screen beneath said
rings. 40
3. The combination with a supporting-frame,
of a reciprocating sieve-frame therein, sockets
carried by the sides of said supporting-frame,
a rotary screen-supporting frame above said
sieve-frame, and downwardly-extending arms 45
carried by said rotary screen -- supporting
frame and removably held within the sockets
carried by the sides of the supporting-frame.
4. The combination with a supporting-frame,
of a reciprocating sieve-frame therein, sock- 50
ets carried by the sides of said supporting-
frame, removable inverted - U - shaped wire
members having their lower ends resting in
said sockets, rings formed in the said wire
members, a rotary screen within said rings 55
and concaved bearing-plates carried by the
rotary screen beneath said rings.
5. The combination with sieve-supporting
frame, sockets carried by the sides of said
supporting - frame, removable inverted - U- 6o
shaped wire members having their lower ends
resting in said sockets, sleeves surrounding
said ends adapted to limit the downward move-
ment therein, rings formed in the upper ends
of said U-shaped wire members and a rotary 65
screen mounted in said rings.
In testimony w hereof I have hereunto set my
hand in the presence of two subscribing wit-
nesses.
