SMTIHSONIAN INSTITLniON PRESS 
SERIES PUBLICATIONS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION 

Emphasis upon publication as a means of "diffusing knowledge" was expressed by the first 

Secretary of the Smithsonian. In his formal plan for the Institution, Joseph Henry outlined a 

program that included the following statement: "It is proposed to publish a series of reports, 

giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year 

in all branches of knowledge." This theme of basic research has been adhered to through the 

years by thousands of titles issued in series publications under the Smithsonian imprint, 

commencing with Smittisonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the 

following active series: 

Smithsonian Contributions to Antiiropology 

Smittisonian Contributions to Astrophysics 

Smithsonian Contributions to Botany 

Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences 

Smithsonian Contributions to the Marine Sciences 

Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology 

Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology 

Smithsonian Folklife Studies 

Smithsonian Studies in Air and Space 

Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology 

In these series, the Institution publishes small papers and full-scale monographs that report 

the research and collections of its various museums and bureaux or of professional colleagues 

in the worid of science and scholarship. The publications are distributed by mailing lists to 

libraries, universities, and similar institutions throughout the worid. 

Papers or monographs submitted for series publication are received by the Smithsonian 

Institution Press, subject to Its own review for format and style, only through departments of the 

various Smithsonian museums or bureaux, where the manuscripts are given substantive review. 

Press requirements for manuscript and art preparation are outlined on the inside back cover.

Foreword 

The U.S. Congress decided in 1908 that the Patent Office no longer needed to keep its 

huge collection of patent models and initiated a process of dispersal that has continued 

under different auspices to the present. For close to half a century, the Patent Office had 

required models, preferably not more than twelve inches square, with each patent 

application. In 1870, the new patent law dropped the model requirement, yet the 

commissioner of patents continued to request models for another ten years. But these little 

emblems of a mechanical age would soon be made redundant by the growth of invention 

in electricity and chemistry, inventions that were often impossible to "model." 

Furthermore the Patent Office could barely contain the quarter million or so models it had 

collected over the years. The Smithsonian Institution, once in 1908 and again in 1926, 

accessioned a total of eight thousand of those it deemed the most important, that is, those 

that had a known impact or were the products of prominent inventors. The rest have been 

scattered to the winds. Some have found their way to museums; others, through auctions 

and sales, are now in private hands; many others have been lost, damaged, destroyed. For 

most curators of technology collections the fate of the patent models is nothing less than 

a national scandal. But why should anyone care? Why should we collect and study patent 

models? 

In the nineteenth century such questions would never have been asked. The Patent 

Office displayed its models prominently, even grandly. Objects of veneration, examples 

of creativity, they spoke eloquendy of national pride. They were never kept simply as a 

record of invention, nor just as a means for disclosing originality. The models were icons 

of American ingenuity, symbols of a smug, triumphant century. For many collectors 

today—museums included—the models retain such piously nationaUst meanings. 

Throughout this century, however, our unquenchable capacity for novelty has reduced 

their import to the status of curios, quaint reminders of a bygone and simpler time. But 

just what scholarly questions do they help answer? 

Historians—even those who work in museums—are not very good at posing questions 

about objects. We are more comfortable with words, with books, with manuscripts. 

Objects are more difficult to "read," they do not reveal dieir meanings easily. More 

accurately, perhaps, objects reveal their surface meanings (form, style, even use) all too 

easily; but it is their latent or hidden meanings, the discovery of which constitutes the 

most creative form of twentieth-century inquiry, that remain obscure. So it is not surprising 

that historians of technology have yet to make significant research use of patent models. 

Yet the models continue to compel and provoke scholarly interest. 

Patent models comprise an unrivaled visual and tactile record of ingenuity, of obsession, 

of achievement, of failure. They show us how things worked in ways that cannot be as 

easily nor as fully grasped through drawings and descriptions. These models embody 

particular visions of mechanical perfectability. They offer insight into the minds of 

inventors which, when combined with other sources, could provide a clue to the nonverbal 

thinking now believed to have been central to nineteenth-century invention. And they 

constitute an extraordinary record of change. Taken as a collection, the patent models are 

evidence of technological evolution: of change and mutation, of continuity and 

incremental change, like so many mollusks or sea urchins—not the conceptual model of 

unilinear progress popular during the nineteenth century. Each model stands at a particular 

moment in history, expressing both change and continuity, expressing a vocabulary of 

technical choice—form, motion, purpose—that is as much a social construction as it is 

the product of individual genius. Once established, technical forms like the power loom 
VI SMTTHSONIAN STUDIES IN HISTORY AND TECHNOLOGY 

and the spinning frame can persist with a remarkable tenacity. Such forms both structure 

and confine change, and the formal properties of a technology are best studied in the 

machines and models themselves. 

Catalogs like the following will assist further research on patent models. Barbara Suit 

Janssen has assembled detailed information on the forty earliest patent models in the 

Division of Textiles collection, while also providing a full listing of the Division's 

patent-model holdings. With over 4000 models, the Division's collection is probably the 

largest in the country devoted to a single industry. Those doing research on 

nineteenth-century textile technology will find this an indispensable resource and, I trust, 

a spur to developing research questions.

American Textile Patent Models 

1819-1840

Introduction 

HISTORICAL BACKGROUND 

The USNM collection of patent models at the National 

Museum of American History's Division of Textiles numbers 

over 4000. This catalog presents a sampling of nineteenthcentury technology by illustrating the earliest models in the 

Division's collection. The 40 models included in this catalog 

may be viewed as a microcosm in which the inventions range 

from obscure and impractical to famous and innovative. They 

represent the period 1819-1840. This catalog begins the 

systematic documentation of the Division's patent models. The 

group of forty was chosen for its manageable size (considering 

the amount of conversation, photography, and research 

required) within the given time and money constraints. The 

main focus of this catalog is descriptive; no extensive 

evaluation of the devices has been attempted. Further 

scholarship is necessary to determine the impact, or lack 

thereof, of these inventions on the technology or environment 

(social and/or economic) for which they were intended. 

The issuance of a patent is no guarantee that an invention 

will ever be commercially marketed, and it is likely that the 

majority of this collection was never manufactured. There 

were many obstacles to prevent a patented idea from becoming 

a commercially successful product. Primary among these was 

that many of the patented inventions were either impractical, 

overly complex, or made obsolete by a better idea. Nevertheless, the fame and success of inventions like Eli Whitney's 

cotton gin and Elias Howe's sewing machine spurred 

Americans on to patent almost everything imaginable. This

mania for patenting is illustrated, in the textile patent model 

collection, by its diversity and number of models. The USNM 

collection, which dates into the early twentieth century, 

includes commonplace items, such as clothespins (40 models) 

and baskets (50 models); complex machines, like looms (450 

models) and sewing machines (750 models); and fabrics (135 

design or construction patents represented). The abundance of 

patent models testifies to the enthusiasm of Americans to 

embrace a new idea, build a new machine, and mechanize 

America ft^om the factory to the home (Table 1). 

Fifty patent models in the Division of Textile's collection 

were acquired in 1908 from the Patent Office. However, the 

main body of the Division's patent models were chosen by Dr. 

Frederick Lewton, curator of the unit then called Crafts and 

Industries. This selection took place in 1926 after Congress 

had decided to dispense with the Patent Office's museum of 

patent models. Dr. Lewton was one of two curators of the 

Smithsonian to select the most important patent models for the 

U.S. National Museum. He examined the 150,(X)0 models and 

chose approximately 15,000 for the Smithsonian. Although 

he selected a broad range of models, his area of specialty was 

textile machinery and, in particular, sewing machines. Thus his 

selection of models relating to this area of invention was 

particularly thorough. The remaining models were sold to 

private individuals. 

By the time the Smithsonian acquired its model collection, 

the models had endured two major fires at the Patent Office. 

One fire in 1836 destroyed all the models (7000) that had been 

submitted up to that date. A second fire in 1877 destroyed 

87,000 models out of a collection of 200,000. Of those 

destroyed, 12,000 were models of inventions that were denied

patents and thus not considered important. The 1836 fire was 

by far the more catastrophic since not only were all the models 

lost, but 9000 patent drawings and all the records of patent 

applications and grants were also destroyed. These records 

were irreplaceable, and Congress considered the loss so great 

that $100,0(X) was appropriated to restore the drawings and the 

most important models. The Patent Office conferred with 

inventors when and where possible to ensure an accurate 

reproduction of each invention. This restoration program 

continued until 1849, at which time several thousand drawings 

and models had been restored. The restored patents were given 

a series of numbers called the x-series; they had not been 

numbered previously. 

There are six models from the x-series in this catalog that 

were restored by the Patent Office. Although Eli Whitney's 

reconstructed model of the cotton gin is in the collection of the 

Division of Textiles, il was incorrectly reconstructed by the 

Patent Office and the restored drawings repeat the same 

mechanical defect. For these reasons, this model is not germane 

to this study and is not discussed in this catalog. 

The other models, patents 162 to 1902, fall in the regular 

consecutive numbering system adopted in July 1836. They are 

the actual models that the inventor submitted along with 

drawings and written specifications. 

Inventors placed great importance on their models and 

viewed a well-executed model as the key element in obtaining 

a patent. Therefore, many times the inventor would hire a 

professional modelmaker to tum a 2-dimensional paper 

drawing into a 3-dimensional miniature machine. The inventor 

could also tum to other skilled craftsmen, such as blacksmiths, 

watchmakers, or cabinetmakers to fabricate models. However, 

depending on the abihty of the inventor, who was often a 

mechanic, the model would often be homemade. 

How a model was constructed depended mostly on what the 

patented feature was. The inventor had a choice of showing the 

complete machine or only his patented device. For instance, 

Charles R. Harvey's loom for weaving haircloth (490) is a 

complete miniature of a full-sized loom; whereas, the check 

and plaid loom (5193x) of Burt, Boyd, and Boyd shows the 

patented feature, the shuttle boxes, set in the bare framework 

of a loom. Other models could be the regular size of their 

commercial counterparts, such as James Baldwin's loom 

shuttle (1485); or, in the case of sewing machines, a 

commercial machine was often submitted as the model with 

the inventor merely adding his patented feature. It was not 

essential that the model work; however, many of them did. 

An example of this is Hiram Wheeler's spinning wheel (patent 

710). In general, the models tended to adhere to requirements 

of the Patent Office that they not exceed a foot in any 

dimension. 

After 1880, the Patent Office dropped the requirement for 

submitting a model, except in unusual circumstances. This 

action was taken primarily because the Patent Office had run 

out of space in which to store or display the models. It was 

also tme that inventions were becoming more complex and 

less amenable to representation by models. Once the requirement for submission of a model was rescinded, the decline of 

a large number of professional modelmakers was assured. 

COMPILING THE CATALOG 

For the purpose of producing this catalog, several steps were 

undertaken. The first step was physically dealing with the 

models: selecting, locating, conserving, and photographing. 

The next step involved researching the inventor and invention. 

This step required accessing materials from a variety of 

sources. A logical starting point was the National Archives' 

collection of patent drawings and files of patent applications. 

Currently, the patent drawings are stored in Washington, D.C, 

and the patent application files are stored in Suitland, 

Maryland. Since the location of these records may change, the 

National Archives suggests that researchers always check for 

current locations, and that specific references beyond that of 

acknowledging the National Archives not be made. Another 

resource for researching patent specifications for the years 

1790-1906 is available on microfilm from Research Publications, Inc., New Haven, Connecticut, under the title "United 

States Patents." 

The patent drawings that are included in this catalog are 

divided into two basic groups: the x-series and the utility series. 

The x-series are the drawings and models that were restored 

by the Patent Office after the 1836 fire. The utility series 

consists of the original drawings and models that are 

consecutively numbered patents beginning in July 1836 and 

continuing to the present. In both sets, the drawings not only 

illustrate the invention in detail, but sometimes offer a vignette 

of the period complete with people in the process of using the 

invention. 
NUMBER 49 

There are two guides available from the National Archives 

that can be used to identify particular x-series patent drawings: 

The "Name and Date List" records the x-series numbers 

consecutively and includes the inventor's name and date of 

patent. The other guide, "Inventors of Restored Patents List," 

arranges the inventors alphabetically with the x-series number 

following each name. However, neither list provides a name 

or description of the invention. Thus, if one wished to study 

drawings of a particular type of invention, these lists would 

not be helpful. 

Two other publications are useful if one approaches patents 

from the subject matter standpoint. The first was compiled by 

Edmund Burke, List of Patents for Inventions and Designs 

Issued by the United States, from 1790 to 1847. This book 

classifies patents by subject (according to class) and includes 

a separate list of patentees. The second publication is an index 

and guide to the microfilm edition of Early Unnumbered 

United States Patents 1790-1836. This guide indexes the 

patents alphabetically by class, by subject, by patentee, and 

by date. Although both of these publications are helpful in 

leading one to patent information, neither includes the x-series 

of patent numbers. 

In comparison to the situation of incomplete classification, 

the patent listings after 1836 are well indexed. Various 

publications are available that provide this information, the 

most useful of which are probably the numerous volumes of 

the Annual Report of the Commissioner of Patents and the 

Subject-Matter Index of Patents for Inventions Issued by the 

United States Patent Office from 1790 to 1873, Inclusive (three 

volumes). The Annual Reports, starting in 1841, contain a 

patent listing arranged by either subject (class), patentee's 

name and/or patent number. The latter publication condenses 

the patent lists from 1790 to 1873 in an alphabetical form 

according to the subject of invention. 

A shortcut to requesting copies of patent specifications from 

the Patent Office and a major timesaver can be provided by a 

library that has a microfilm series of the patent specifications. 

The National Museum of American History has such a set, 

which dates from 1790 to 1906. The post-1836 patent 

specifications are easy to locate by patent numbers. The 

pre-1836 patents can be located by using the guide Early 

Unnumbered United States Patents 1790-1836. 

The patent application files in the National Archives are 

another source of information dealing with patents dating after 

the 1836 fire. Unfortunately, information for patents (1837-

1840) in this catalog is, in general, disappointing. A patent 

application file typically contains a handwritten specification 

signed by the inventor and the official printed specification and 

drawing. The original specification usually varies from the 

final printed specification. If the patent examiner rejected 

certain claims by the inventor, the file often contains letters 

from the patentee's attorney or the patentee explaining or 

amending the patent claim. The name of the patent examiner 

is usually written on the patent application jacket For the 

patents discussed in this catalog, the examiner was either 

Charles M. Keller or Thomas P. Jones. 

It is the prospect of finding unexpected information that 

leads one to investigate these files. For instance, interesting 

details include a petition by Erastus Bigelow to Henry 

Ellsworth, Patent Commissioner, conceming his loom patent 

(546): 

...paid his Treasury fee and made application for a patent for the above 

invention somewhere about the first of November 1836 and his papjers and 

model were destroyed by the conflagration of the Patent Office in 

December...he therefore prays that due notice will be taken on the reception 

of these his second set of papers and model and his patent be issued forthwith. 

and Alden Sibley's remarks as to the advantages (both 

economic and mechanical) of using his calico printing machine 

(patent 823). 

One area in which there is room for more research is the 

study of local histories and genealogies found in the Library 

of Congress. They merit attention for the sketches about 

individuals and industries of various towns and cities in the 

United States. In summary, this catalog presents details of 40 

early American textile inventions that were granted patents. 

These details generally include photographs of the models and 

drawings with a short narrative, as well as occasional 

photographs of inventors. The Appendices include basic 

information on additional models.

RESTORED PATENT 5193X: Check and Plaid Power Loom 

Issued August 19,1828 

Enoch Burt, Oliver D. Boyd, and 

Amos H. Boyd 

Manchester, Hartford Co., Connecticut 

In their patent, Burt and the Boyds claimed the shifting and 

alternating of shuttles without stopping the motion of the power 

loom. The number of shuttle boxes corresponded to the number 

of colors in the check or plaid to be woven. They also patented 

a stop motion which halted weaving by the action of a lever if 

the weft thread broke or the shuttle bobbin ran out of thread. 

Scientific American credits "Rev. Enoch Burt, a man of 

splendid genius," with having taken out the first patent (5193x)

for a gingham loom in 1828.1 Burt also patented a cloth 

shearing machine in 1807, a check power loom in 1837, a rag 

dusting machine in 1838, a stop motion in 1845, and fancy 

check power looms in 1851 and 1854.2 

Further notice was given to Burt and the Boyds for their 

1828 patent in Gikoy's book. The Art of Weaving, published

ways of grinding, they are to be put into their places in the machine, with 

adjusting screws lo bring the ledger blade against the cylinder; a rapid motiai 

is then to be given to the latter, which motion must be continued until they are 

perfectly fitted into each other, emery, or other suitable substance, being used 

in the grinding.^ 

The editor of the Journal of the Franklin Institute commented: 

Whether the foregoing modes of procedure are perfectly new, or to what 

extent they are so, we leave to the experience of those in the habit of using, 

and keeping in order, the kind of shearing machine to which they refer.^ 

Evidently the sharpening procedure was neither new nor 

successful. In Daniels' amended patent, reissued on August 

22, 1834, he added a new sliding rest that saved the selvages 

from the wearing action of the blades and he reiterated the 

construction features; he did not include the technique of 

sharpening the blades.^ 

In 1831, Daniels, in partnership with others, formed a 

machine shop under the name of R. Daniels and Co. Power for 

the shop machinery was fumished by water from a canal. The 

firm was successful in manufacturing carding machines, 

spinners, shearing machines, pickers, and other similar 

machines. They employed some fifty men. In 1836, The 

Burlington Mill Company bought $24,000 worth of machinery 

from the firm. The R. Daniels and Co. partnership dissolved 

in 1842 due to unfavorable economic conditions. However, the 

shop continued under the management of others and kept 

producing Daniels' patented machines.'^

commonly done by hand. His invention was thought to be 

responsible for introducing worsted manufacture in the United 

States. Michael H. Simpson of Boston made use of Couillard's 

machine in 1835. In 1854 and 1857, Simpson patented 

improvements to Couillard's comber, which increased its 

production by more than five-fold. This improved comber was 

widely used in the United States for preparing wool for carpets. 

John Hayes declared it was the best combing machine for the 

type of wool called "carpet-wools."^ 

Couillard's patent of July 7, 1835 was reissued several 

times: June 16, 1836 and on July 6, 1839 (as No. 9). From the 

issuance of the first patent forward, the New England Worsted 

Company is listed as the assignee. It can be assumed that this 

company was using his machine and probably employed 

Couillard while he was developing the inventions.^

RESTORED PATENT 9098X: Wool and Flax Combing Machine 

Issued September 18, 1835 

WiUiam W. Calvert 

Lowell, Middlesex Co., Massachusetts 

William W. Calvert, a machinist, accomplished the separation of short and long fibers by the combination of a bristle or 

wire brush, which brushed the wool into teeth set on a cylinder, 

and the prong of a "universal swiper," which caught the long 

fibers and drew them out to be carried on a friction belt into a 

drawing can. The long fibers were then in the form of 

continuous roping and were ready for spinning. 

It was noted with approval in the Journal of the Franklin 

Institute. 1836: 

We think that much ingenuity and skill are manifested in the mode adopted 

for carrying out the conceptions of the patentee, but we are unable to offer any 

opinion of the probable success of the plan, as it is. in the present instance 

especially, a question of experience.' 

In an account of the Patent Office fire of 1836, Calvert is 

mentioned as one of six American inventors (including Thorp 

and Couillard), whose patents pertained 

to the spinning of cotton and wool and the manufacture of fabrics [which] 

reduced so much the expense of manufacture, that the British manufacturers 

\

were reluctantly obliged, at the expense of no little national pride, to lay aside 

their own machinery and adopt our improvements, to prevent our underselling 

them even in their own home market.^

RESTORED PATENT 9743X: Reeling, 

Spinning, and Twisting Silk Machine 

Issued June 20, 1836 

Adam Brooks 

Scituate, Plymouth Co., Massachusetts 

Brooks' machine was an improvement on an earlier patent 

of June 29, 1833 (7619x) for which the American Institute 

awarded him a gold medal at their tenth Annual Fair.^ He was 

also awarded a diploma for his improvements at their twelfth 

Annual Fair in 1839.^ 

The machine drew silk from cocoons that were lying in a 

pan of hot water. The heat of the water caused the threads of 

the cocoons to unwind. Once the threads of the cocoons were 

loose, they were drawn through guiding wires, between rollers, 

over spindles, through rings, and then fastened to spools. 

Following this, the silk was reeled, spun, and twisted into 

sewing thread. John Thorp's patented ring spinner of 1828 

(5280x) had replaced the flyers.^ Note that the stylized drawing 

(Figure 11) shows flyers, whereas the model (Figure 10) and 

the patent drawing (not illustrated) show Thorp's ring spinner. 

Two members of the Committee on Science and the Arts of 

the Franklin Institute examined Brooks' patent. They found it 

"merely a combination in a compact and convenient form of 

several contrivances already known and in use."** However, 

after they watched it work and examined the sewing thread 

that it produced, they were favorably impressed. Their opinion 

was that 

its simplicity of form and efficiency of action adapt it in an especial manner 

for use in small establishments and families: enabling them by a moderate 

expenditure and with a degree of skill easily acquired to convert their raw 

material into a form suitable for domestic use or convenient for carriage to a 

market.* 

The Journal of the American Institute also reported on Brooks' 

patent 

... It is not only a most ingenious invention, but. in their judgment, cannot 

fail of becoming eminently useful. It seems to solve the problem, which has 

induced great doubt, whether the culture of silk in the United States would be 

profitably prosecuted, from the difficulty of good reeling of silk from cocoons, 

without very considerable manual instruction. The committee is satisfied, that 

an ingenious female can almost immediately learn to reel on Mr. Brooks' 

machine, in a perfect manner.* 

Silver medals were awarded to three women who used 

Brooks' patented machine. At the eighth Annual Fair of the 

American Institute, Harriet and Charlotte Stark, of Dunbarton, 

New Hampshire, won a medal for silk sewing thread.^ Brooks' 

wife was awarded a medal at the twelfth Annual Fair for a pair 

of silk stockings and a printed silk handkerchief made "from 

a piece 40 yards, grown, spun and wove by herself."*

PATENT 162: Loom Shuttle-Tongue 

Issued April 17,1837 

Comfort B. Thorp 

Smithfield, Providence Co., Rhode Island 

Comfort Thorp was the younger brother of John Thorp, an 

important textile machinery inventor. Comfort worked for 

Thomas and William Retcher in their mill near North 

Providence.^ His patent improved the method of seeming and 

holding the cop on the common power loom shuttle, preventing 

shps that would waste yarn and cause imperfections in the 

cloth. The patent model submitted by Thorp contained two 

types of tongues. One used a common round tongue with wire 

spiraled around it. The other consisted of a tongue with ridges 

or notches similar to the teeth of a saw blade.

PATENT 291: Self-adjusting Loom Temple 

Issued July 22,1837 

Samuel P. Mason 

Newport, Newport Co., Rhode Island 

Temples are attachments on looms designed to keep the cloth 

at a uniform width during weaving. Self-acting temples 

required no adjustment as the cloth was woven, i.e., they 

automatically adjusted their position. The greater speed 

obtained with power-weaving made the use of self-acting 

temples a necessity.^ 

The basic construction of Mason's temples was similar to 

other temples of the period. The patented feature of his temple 

concerned the arrangement of the parts by which the jaws or 

forceps were forced open and released their hold on the cloth.^ 

Mason patented other useful textile machinery. Perhaps the 

most notable were a speeder for roving cotton in 1830 and a 

cotton whipper in 1834, which James Montgomery, in 1840, 

considered the best, cheapest, and simplest whipper diat he had 

seen in factory use over a span of thirty years. There is no 

evidence that Samuel Mason was related to William Mason, 

who also invented a speeder for roving cotton in 1838 (see 

patent 724).^

PATENT 350: Cloth Napping Machine 

Issued August 8,1837 

Benjamin Swasey 

Mount Vemon, Kennebec Co., Maine 

Swasey's patent concerned the setting of teazles in the wires 

of the large napping cylinder. He also claimed certain springs 

and levers that shifted the cloth rollers in and out of gear. This 

shifting of the cloth rollers caused the cloth to come in contact 

with die teazles as the cloth was wound forward and then 

disengaged the cloth from the teazles as the cloth rewound. In 

this way, the cloth could roll fi^om one cylinder to another as 

long as necessary to ensure a well-napped surface. An 

additional benefit was that the shifting of gears was 

accomplished without the "aid of a person to match and 

unmatch the gear work."^ Tension on the cloth was kept even 

by friction bands on the ends of the cloth rollers together with 

hanging weights.

John Golding 

Dedham, Norfolk Co., Massachusetts 

Golding specified that the frame of the doubling and twisting 

machine was to be constructed like any of the "modem" frames 

with gears and an eccentric or heart motion to guide the thread 

on the spool. His patent claim concemed the arrangement of 

the machinery that prevented wasting the thread if it broke. 

This was accomplished by stopping the spindle and throwing 

up the feeding-down roUer.

PATENT 490: Hair Cloth Loom 

Issued November 25,1837 

Charles R. Harvey 

Poughkeepsie, Dutchess Co., New York 

Weaving with horsehair was difficult and slow because the 

weaver had to select an individual horsehair for each weft and 

insert it into the warp. Harvey's loom was a step toward 

mechanizing this process. However, he only dealt with 

changing from a hand loom to a power loom, not with the 

problem of weaving with horsehair. Even in his patent 

specification, he mentioned that the "hook" (a simple wooden 

rod with a hook at one end by which the horsehair was drawn 

in to be woven) is "made in the usual way." Harvey detailed 

his improvements as the application of power to both the 

movement of the hook and the operation of the loom overall. 

At the tenth Annual Fair of the American Institute, in 1837, 

Harvey was awarded a gold medal for his "hair seating loom." 

The Journal of the American Institute, published in 1838, 

remarked that "this is the first application of power to weaving 

hair cloth; and conceming the extent of the article (hair cloth) 

now used for fumiture, we think the loom is entitled to the 

highest consideration. "1

PATENT 491: Fancy Power Loom 

Issued November 25,1837 

William Crompton 

Taunton, Bristol Co., Massachusetts 

Before William Crompton's patent was adopted, the 

harnesses of power looms were controlled by cams. This 

arrangement limited the number of harnesses that could be 

utilized, which in tum limited the complexity of patterns that 

could be woven. In order to vary the pattem the cams had to 

be laboriously changed. Crompton's invention solved both of 

these problems. In his patent, an endless pattem chain was 

used, upon which rollers or pins could be variously placed to 

engage the harness levers (as had the cams) but which allowed 

any number of hamesses to be used and eaily permitted the 

changing of pattems. Thus more elaborate designs could be 

easily woven on power looms.^ 

Wilham Crompton, an Englishman,^ had only been in the 

United States a year, when he designed this loom. He was 

employed by Crocker and Richmond, a textile mill in Taunton, 

Massachusetts, which failed that same year. Crompton went 

back to England where he entered into the cotton manufacture 

with John Rostran, in whose name he took out a British patent 

for his loom. Later in 1839 Crompton retumed to the United 

States to promote his looms. He met with success when the 

Middlesex Mills in Lowell, Massachusetts, invited him to alter 

his fancy cotton loom for the weaving of woolen fabrics. This 

he accomplished in 1840 and it was considered an important 

landmark for the woolen industry.^ Hayes quotes the Committee on Patents of the United States House of Representatives, 

1878, that "upon the Crompton loom or looms based upon it, 

are woven every yard of fancy cloth in the world.'"* 

In 1849, Crompton became incapacitated for work, but his 

son, George, carried on the business. After 1859, the Crompton 

Loom Work became one of the two largest fancy loom 

manufacturers in the United States.^

PATENT 544: Loom Heddles and Harness 

Issued December 29,1837 

Benjamin Hartford and William B. Tilton 

Enfield, Grafton Co., New Hampshire 

Hartford and Tilton improved upon the constmction of 

heddles by using strips of rolled flat metal with an eye punched 

through the middle of each strip to allow for the passage of 

warp yams. Heddles were commonly constmcted of cord. The 

replacement of metal for cord produced a more durable heddle. 

These one-piece metallic strips and the constmction of the 

heddle frame were the basis of their patent. The heddles slid 

on two rods and were attached to clasps that could be adjusted 

permitting the heddles to correspond to the part of the reed 

that was in operation. 

The editor of the Journalofthe Franklin Institute noted that 

"instead of the cord usually employed in making the hamess, 

it is to be composed of strips of metal...."^

regularity of pattem. We speak advisedly on this point, havmg two of them in 

use, that have been examined by persons who are good judges in such matters. 

Of their durability there cannot be any doubt, and the friends of domestic 

industry WLU be glad to leam that the manufacture is so much facilitated by the 

invention of Mr. Bigelow as to cause them to be afforded at a price considerably 

below that at which those of an inferior quality can be imported, and yet to 

give a satisfactory remuneration to the manufacturer.... 

We anticipate that at a very early day. American counterpanes wUl become 

as general as berths on board steamboats, and as beds at hotels. The articles 

are for sale in all our large cities, and as soon as there is a sufficient supply, 

will make their way into every part of the Union.^ 

Bigelow was a prolific inventor, including the patenting of 

at least 33 looms. In 1842 he revolutionized carpet manufacture 

by a series of inventions that made the carpet loom automatic. 

The automatic features enabled the manufacturers to replace 

male weavers with less costiy female weavers or boys. His 

inventions for the power weaving of Ingrain, Bmssels, 

Jacquard, and Wilton carpets were quite successful. Before the 

middle of the nineteenth century, the importance of these 

inventions was recognized, not only in the United States but 

also in Europe.^ 

The 1950 issue of The Bigelow Magazine, published by the 

Bigelow-Sanford Carpet Company for their 125th anniversary, 

included an article on Bigelow in which he was headlined as 

the "Father of the modem carpet industry.'"^

Issued Febmary 6, 1838 

Elijah Fairman 

Stafford, Tolland Co., Connecticut 

Fairman's improvements, consisting of an additional cam 

and set of treadles, were additions to power looms in common 

use. His improvements allowed the hamesses to operate more 

smoothly and the warp to open, through which the shuttle 

passed more easily. The end result was that the loom was better 

suited to weaving eiUier hght or heavy fabrics. 

Six pages and three illustrations in Gikoy's book. The Art

NUMBER 49 31 

commented that Fairman's loom would probably work fine for 

simple weaves, but for fancy pattemed work, one requiring 

10-100 heddle frame, it would be totally impractical.^ 

Scientific American published an excerpt from Gilroy's 

remarks on Fairman's loom and included one engraving. At 

the end of the article there was advertized for sale an

PATENT 596: Cordage Machine 

Issued Febmary 7, 1838 

Moses Day 

Roxbury, Norfolk Co., Massachusetts 

This patent was an improvement on Day's earlier patent 

(9692x) of June 2,1836, which was destroyed in die 1836 fire 

and reconsdncted by the Patent Office for the Columbian 

Exposition of 1893. The difference between the two patents is 

the addition of a gauge-plate to the end of the machine by 

which it became a strandmaker. In Figure 32, the perforated 

gauge-plate on the end of the twisting machine is in the shape 

of a circle with ears. The toothed bench with flax laying on it 

in the restored drawing of patent 9692x was replaced in patent 

drawing 596 wiUi a bobbin frame, which fed the cordage 

machine with the desired number of sd-ands to be twisted into 

cord. Day stated that his method of making cordage had two 

advantages over those in common use. First, the twist given 

to the strand was uniform throughout its length. Second, as the 

cord was made, it was wound on a bobbin, thereby eliminating 

the need for long rope walks and large buildings. Thus, the 

whole process could be done in a room that was only slighUy 

larger than the cordage machine and the bobbin frame.

PATENT 710: Domestic Spinning Wheel 

Issued April 25,1838 

Hiram F. Wheeler 

Springville, Susquehanna Co., Pennsylvania 

Hiram Wheeler's domestic wheel was intended to spin wool 

and tow. He tided his invention "inclined spinner," referring 

to the fact that the operator would sit at the machine as opposed 

to standing and walking when using the typical wool wheel. 

When the treadle was forced down with the foot, a cord ran 

out the carriage and the spinning wheel head. A weight brought 

them back toward the spinner. This movement of the carriage 

was equivalent to the spinner walking forward to the spindle 

tip for die draw out and then back to die wheel. Wheeler 

specifically claimed as his invention this sliding action of the 

wheel head. 

The editor of the 1839 Journal of the Franklin Institute 

remarked of the wheel that "tiiere is Little probability that our 

readers will ever see [the wheel], unless it be in the form of a 

model, at the Patent Office."* This prediction seems to have 

been valid, because there are no other known existing spinning 

wheels bearing his patent.

PATENT 724: Speeder for Roving Cotton 

Issued May 4, 1838 

William Mason 

Taunton, Bristol Co., Massachusetts 

In 1837, William Mason,* who was employed by Crocker 

and Richmond, developed a speeder to replace the Taunton 

speeder that had been invented by George Danforth in 1824. 

Mason's patent consisted of two parts: the mode of 

wididrawing the spindle for die doffing and the centrifugal 

levers. The editor of the Journal of the Franklin Institute stated 

of the first part Uiat the mode was "ingenious, and manifesdy 

good." Of the second part he explained diat" by their weight, 

at their outer ends, these levers expand by the centtifugal force, 

with a power proportioned to their velocity, causing their inner 

ends to press upon die spools, and laying the yard hard and 

compact upon diem; and consequendy, admitting of a very 

high degree of speed. "^ 

Although Mason was successful in improving the speeder 

^ne-c^-a^^ /»r- /\.irvi/n-< lactic 

FIGURE 36.—Patent drawing 724; the centrifugal levers are depicted "Fig. 5." (U.S National Archives) 
NUMBER 49 37 

(for which he was awarded patent 724) it was difficult to thread 

and to remove the bobbins. In addition, the speeder created 

coarse rovings at a time in die late 1830s when finer materials 

were becoming popular. The speeder later proved inferior to 

an improved English fly frame and disappeared from use in the 

1840s and ISSOs.^ 

Earlier in his career, Mason had devised a loom for weaving 

diaper cloth and another loom for weaving damask tableclodis. 

In 1833, he succeeded in perfecting John Thorp's ring frame 

(patent 5280x; see Figure 63) to the point where it was later 

used extensively in the textile industry. He also invented a 

self-acting mule for spinning cotton (patent 1801, issued 

October 8, 1840), which for that period was a successful 

altemative to the contemporary ring spinning machine.'* 

In 1842, Mason, with the financial backing of James Kellog 

Mills, a Boston merchant, established a machine shop called 

William Mason and Company. Business prospered and in 1845 

new buildings were constmcted. At that time. Mason's Taunton 

shop was considered the largest machine shop in the United 

States. The shop was particularly successful in manufacturing 

cotton machinery, as well as machine tools, cupola fumaces, 

blowers, rifles, Campbell printing presses, gears, and shafts. 

Mason found new fame in 1852 when he began building 

locomotives, the first of which was finished in 1853. His 

locomotives found wide acceptance for their beauty of design 

and technical excellence.^ Mason was a pioneer inventor and 

manufacturer whose ideas, manufacturing metiiods, and 

products had a profound influence on American technology.

Stephen Kimball 

Putney, Windham Co., Vermont 

Kimball's patent refers to the application of friction to the screw that caused the circular belt to contract or expand and, 

yam beam of a power loom. This was accomplished by using in tum, to increase or decrease the drag on the beam. An 

a belt, made of steel or iron, which formed nearly a circle elliptical spring eased the movement of the beam within the

Issued June 12,1838 

Richard E. Yerkes 

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 

According to his patent specification, Yerkes patented "the 

revolving arrangement and combination of the sMding shaft, 

with die broach, or with the spool, for the purpose of removing 

and renewing the latter ...." The action of the sliding shaft 

enabled the operator to remove and change the spool when the 

spring was pressed down. In addition, he patented the ring in 

combination with the flyers that distributed the yam on the 

spool. Yerkes intended his improvements to be used on 

machines for spinning cotton and other fibers.

Sibley's improvement concemed the arrangement of the being able to work as heavy an Engraving, last as first, or second, and by which 

color box, which held the coloring matter used in printing; the 

fumishing roll, which supplied the coloring matter to the

advantage of his machine was 

means you can place the Light, delicate colors, first and Black or Chocolate 

last or as you please.' 

His patent model shows only one engraved copper roller, 

although the machine was designed to do 3- or 4-color work 

with multiple rollers.

Sibley recommended using flour instead of gum to thicken 

the coloring matter. He calculated diat to print 175 pieces it 

was necessary to use 42 pounds of gum sengal, at 22 cents a 

pound, which added up to $9.24; whereas, 42 pounds of flour 

cost only 5 cents a pound, for a sum of $2.10. That totaled up 

to a savings of $7.14 if die flour was used.^ Whedier or not the 

use of flour was ever adopted is not known. 

By 1836, textile mills in the United States had printed 120 

million yards of calicoes. Calico printing was popular among 

manufacturers largely due to the fact that the printing only 

added a step to the finishing process and did not affect or 

compUcate the weaving process.'^

Issued August 1, 1838 

George Faber 

Canton, Stark Co., Ohio 

Faber's patent related to the constmction of the common 

hand card used for carding cotton or wool prior to the spinning 

process. He specifically patented using wood veneer, instead 

of leadier, for die foundation diat contained the card's wire 

teeth. The wood was cut from Vs to Vi6 of an inch in thickness, 

4 inches in width, and 4 to 8 inches in lengdi. The wood was 

then steeped in water to soften it so diat when placed in a card 

machine, it could be pricked and the teeth inserted. The veneer 

was nailed to another piece of wood and a handle inserted to 

form the hand card. 

Although Faber did not claim credit for inventing the card 

machine, in his patent specification he did mention diat he had 

made improvements on it.

Issued October 19, 1838 

Emory A. Angell 

Killingly, Windham Co., Connecticut 

In his patent specification, Angell stated that "this temple 

is of the kind which holds the selvage of the cloth between 

jaws, which are opened by the beat of the lathe, and is in many 

respects similar to such as have been long in use." He claimed 

as his invention, the way in which the upper and lower jaws 

were connected by pins to form the hinge-joints. 

On the original wrapper containing the patent application 

papers is a faint handwritten note, "see Saml P. Mason's 

Temple July 1837."^ In the process of checking Angell's 

patent, Charles M. Keller, the patent examiner, probably wrote 

that notation but found no conflict with Mason's patent 291 

and thus granted Angell his patent.

Parsons' patent 3082x had claimed to be an improvement 

on Samuel Dorr's 1794 patented shearing machine (not 

illustrated), which was called the "wheel of knives." The 

"wheel of knives" refers to the shearing cylinder, which was 

wrapped with blades in a spiral pattern. Parsons said of his 

improvement that it could be "composed of frame of suitable 

size, about 3 feet 7 inches long; 2 feet 4 inches wide and 4 

feet high. Instead of knives on a large circle it should be a 

small one, about 2-1/2 inches in diameter ...."^ Figure 54 shows 

Parson's improvement of using conical-shaped spreaders and 

a cylindrical roller with wire teedi to stt^etch and advance the 

clodi. 

In the 1820 Manufacturers Census, there is a reference to 

Parsons' first shearing machine being used by a woolen 

manufacturer, Shearwood and Goreham from Rensselaer 

County, New York.^ This earlier machine is also mentioned 

in an account of die Patent Office fire of 1836 as being one of 

several models of valuable improvements in shearing and 

napping clodi.^ At die twelfdi Exhibition of American 

Manufacturers, in 1842, Parsons and an associate. Wilder (full 

name not known), were awarded certificates of Honorable 

Mention for dieir improved clodi shearing machines.^

PATENT 1028: Carpet 

Issued December 10, 1838 

John Humphries 

New York, New York Co., New York 

Humphries' innovation was the addition of a supplementary 

layer to the bottom of a carpet to provide an extra cushion and 

to strengdien die overall stmcture. The added stuffer weft 

(Figure 56) is a stout, loosely twisted cord, woven into die 

underside of die carpet and interlaced widi the grotind warp. 

These samples of carpeting are important because they are the 

earliest known examples of patented carpeting in die United 

States. 

Whether this patent was utUized is unknown but there is 

evidence of Humphries' being involved in the manufacture of 

carpeting. The Journal of the Franklin Institute lists premiums 

awarded at their eighth exhibition in 1833. John Humphries 

was presented a premium for four pieces of Bmssels carpeting. 

The judges noted that "these goods are of excellent quality and 

style, and satisfactory assiu"ances have been received diat they 

are exclusively of American workmanship throughout all die 

processes, from the raw material to the finished product of the 

loom."i

PATENT 1043: Spindle and Flyer 

Issued December 28, 1838 

John Howarth and Nathan F. Jones 

Andover, Essex Co., Massachusetts 

Howarth's and Jones' patent covered certain improvements 

on flyers and spindles attached to machinery (such as throstles 

or spinning frames) where a twisting apparatus was needed. 

The improvements were useful for roving and spinning cotton 

or other fibers. 

They experienced some delay in obtaining a patent and hired 

R.H. Eddy of Boston, a patent attomey, to represent them. 

Their original claims were abridged and condensed. In the last 

letter (December 1, 1836) from Eddy to Commissioner of 

Patents Henry Ellsworth, Eddy retumed the amended specification without any other essential changes in it and said: 

"...leaving it to your discretion to reject or admit the claim .... 

But I supposed that the arrangement and combination of diese 

different parts with each other might show sufficient novelty 

to constitute and claim to a patent."^ Presumably widi Eddy's 

help, Howarth and Jones were able to receive their patent in 

1838.

PATENT 1051: Loom Harness 

Issued December 31, 1838 

John Thorp and William G. Angell 

Providence, Providence Co., Rhode Island 

Thorp's and Angell's "extra-eyed flat knot" hamess 

consisted of one or more rows of eyes for every heddle, so 

that radier than using die same row of eyes each time when 

weaving, warp yams could be shifted into anodier row of eyes. 

By diis addition, wear on the eyes was reduced substantially. 

The knots that made the eyes were also flattened so that the 

warp yams could pass through more easily. These changes 

were alleged to make die hamess more durable than the 

single-eyed hamess. Also patented was die way in which the 

heddles were fastened to the back-band of die hamess. 

John Thorp (1784-1848)^ gained distinction for his invention of ring spinning, which established the basis of modem 

spinning. His two patents of 1828 (5280x and 5322x) and his 

patent of 1844 (3766) were the basic patents for continuous 

spinning and twisting. Unfortunately, although brilliant in 

theory. Thorp's invention, which had the potential for high 

speeds at less power, had mechanical problems. These 

problems precluded the commercial use of his patents and in 

fact prejudiced many against his concept of ring spinning. It 

was not untd the 1840s, when odiers, such as William Mason, 

had added improvements, that die ring frame started to become 

commercially accepted.^ 

Thorp spent most of his life in or near Providence, Rhode 

Island, which was die center for cotton spinning in the United 

States. He was associated with Thomas and William Retcher, 

North Providence Braid manufacturers, but eventually established a separate business as a machinist and later as a machine 

builder.^ 

Besides his various spinning patents. Thorp also patented a 

hand and water loom, 1812; a power loom, 1816; two braiding 

machines, 1821 and 1826; a netting machine, 1828; and a 

narrow fabric loom, 1829."* 

As was typical of many inventors. Thorp was unable to 

financially capitalize from his inventions. There were several 

reasons for this; first was his failure to simplify die ring frame, 

and second his failure to protect his patent rights in court. 

Finally, he lacked the business acumen and capital to 

manufacture and sell his own machinery, which would have 

freed him from reliance on others to produce and market his 

inventions.^ 

WUliam Gorham Angell (1811-1870) worked in die 

carpentry trade of his father until about 1831. He dien entered 

into parttiership with his uncle, John Gorham, manufacturing 

loom-reeds. It is presumed that they used a machine for making 

loom-reeds that Angell had invented previously. After 1838 

Angell became involved with the manufacture of screws and 

was die President of die American Screw Company for many 

years.^ 

'The above daguerreotype (ca. 1843-1845, from the April/June 1928 issue

Gibbs assigned his patent to Jonadian Dennis, Jr. (of 

Portsmouth, R.I.), who in tum paid the required thirty dollar 

patent fee in exchange for die patent rights.^ [Note diat Figure 

69 wrongly cites assignee as "Joseph."] 

Although nothing is known about Gibbs, further information 

conceming Dennis relates to his other inventions. On 

December 28, 1838, he received two patents, 1040 and 1041, 

both for machines designed to wind silk. At the tendi 

Exhibition of Domestic Manufacturers, held by the Franklin 

Institute in 1838, he was awarded an honorable mention for 

his silk spinning and specimen of silk.^ On June 21, 1838, 

patent 799 was awarded to Dennis for a circular fi-ough used 

in protecting trees from the canker worm. The editor of the 

Franklin Institute, Thomas P. Jones, who was also the 

superintendent of the Patent Office, commented on this patent: 

"... we will undertake to prophecy ... the trees fumished widi 

his protectors will still be few and far between ...."'*

PATENT 1228: Cordage Machine 

Issued July 9, 1839 

Alfred Hathaway 

Boston, Suffolk Co., Massachusetts 

Hathaway claimed that his patent would do away widi long 

buildings, called rope walks, which were then necessary to 

house die machinery used in the manufacture of rope. His intent 

was to replace them widi much smaller buildings. He admitted 

that this particular invention was not original and that smaller 

more efficient machines had been the subject of previous 

inventions. He thought, however, that all of the currenUy 

patented cordage machines had some fault in constmction or 

operation. In his machine for twisting and laying strands into 

cordage of various sizes, therefore, he felt that the six parts 

claimed in his patent specification corrected these defects. 

Other than these improvements, Hathaway's patent resembled 

other machines of the period.^

PATENT 1367: Reeling, Spinning, and 

Twisting Silk Machine 

Issued October 12, 1839 

Jacob Pratt 

Sherbom, Middlesex Co., Massachusetts 

Pratt is an example of an inventor who thought he had a 

more complicated original invention than he actually had. In 

his patent application fUe, his specification makes four claims. 

Out of diose four, only one was approved by Charles M. Keller, 

the patent examiner, and that claim was for using a trough of 

zinc.^ The trough held spools of silk fibers prior to spinning 

and was filled with warm water which kept the fibers from 

sticking together. 

The Journal of the Franklin Institute, 1840, commented: 

"Its constmction is, in general, simUar to such as is well 

known, and is not claimed as new .... No particular reason is 

given for making the troughs of zinc, and we suppose tiiat 

copper would do equally well; but firom the special mention 

of this metal we were led to look for some ground of preference 

to it."2

PATENT 1421: Knitting Machine 

Issued December 5, 1839 

Richard Walker 

Portsmouth, Rockingham Co., New Hampshire 

Walker's knitting machine, which he called a "rotary power 

stocking loom," knitted by a rotary motion and the action of a 

cam-shaft. The stocking loom could be operated as a single 

domestic machine tumed by a crank or operated by belts and 

pulleys as would have been used in a factory. Walker claimed 

his arrangement made the knitting machine self-acting. He 

replaced the jacks, which were used in English machines, widi 

a carriage and roller which produced more equal pressure on 

die yam and therefore enabled the knitting of a harder twisted 

yam. 

The 1841 Journal of the Franklin Institute remarked: "Those 

who have ever seen a stocking frame must be aware of its great 

complexity .... In the present instance an attempt is made, and 

we diink not widiout success, to give the machine greater

PATENT 1485: Loom Shuttle 

Issued January 31, 1840 

James Baldwin 

Nashua, Hillsboro Co., New Hampshire 

Baldwin's patent consisted of a steel spring and catch made 

in one piece diat fits inside die wooden bobbin. In his patent 

specification he claimed diis avoided die expense of separate 

catches and springs diat were in die common shutde as dien 

in use. The arrangement and constmction of the spring and 

catch were such diat pushing die bobbin down on die spindle 

and into the moudi of die shutde secured die bobbin on the 

catch. By pulUng up on the bobbin, the head of die spindle 

pushed down on the spring, which in tum disengaged die catch 

and released die bobbin. These improvements made it easier 

for the bobbin changer to replenish die shutde with diread. 

An earUer notice of Baldwin's loom shuttle appears in the 

Journal of the American Institute. In 1838, at the elevendi 

Annual Fair of the American Institute, James and E. Baldwin 

were awarded a diploma for an improved loom shutde.' On 

May 3, 1859, James Baldwin was successful in having his 

shutde awarded reissue patent 710.

PATENT 1498: Loom Heddles 

Issued Febmary 26,1840 

John Thorp and William G. Angell 

Providence, Providence Co., Rhode Island 

These heddles were presented to the Patent Office in a round 

wooden frame, including examples of both wire and twine 

heddles. In the patent specification. Thorp and Angell 

described the dimensions of heddles for use in weaving cotton 

cloth on a common power loom. These dimensions could be 

changed, however, so that any kind of weaving could be done. 

A chain of the heddles was formed by taking two pieces of 

wire or twine and tying them with a common square knot, 

"which will unite diem in the same way and manner that a lady 

ties her apron strings or a child his shoestrings."' The 

placement of the knots resulted in the formation of the eyes 

of die heddles. 

Thorp and Angell did not include a patent drawing widi the 

specification. The 1841 Journal of the Franklin Institute 

remarked of this omission: "We must suppose ... that the 

description, although to us somewhat obscure, would be clear 

to a professional weaver."^

Issued April 24,1840 

Charles Strong 

Hartford, Windsor Co., Vermont 

The heddles are shown in die hamess frame. Strong patented 

two improvements on the metallic heddle. One was the mediod 

of consttiicting the heddle eye, which consisted of soldering 

two pieces of thin tinned iron together with the metal soips 

bent to form the semicircular hole. The second improvement 

involved the arrangement of the heddles in two rows instead 

of one, which enabled higher slayed clodi to be woven.

PATENT 1575: Wool and Cotton Picking Machine 

Issued April 30, 1840 

George C. Kellogg and Phineas Gillet 

New Hartford, Litchfield, Co., Connecticut 

According to the patentees, picking was improved because 

small matted fibers would not escape the opening and 

separation process. This improved feeding of the wool or other 

fibers was due to a combination of the feeder, shell, and picker 

cyUnder. "Fig. 2" in the patent drawing (Figure 78) illustrates 

this combination. The fibers to be picked were first spread on 

the creeper cloth (A), then moved on to die concave shell (J) 

at which time the teeth of die feeder (i) engaged the fibers and 

brought them into contact (K) with the teedi (F) of the picker 

cylinder (E). (G) is a short bolt with a nut at one end. 

Also patented was the mediod of holding die teeth in the 

picker cylinder, which enabled the teeth to be easily removed, 

sharpened, and set back in by the picker tender or a "small 

lad."^ "Fig. 3" shows how the teeth were set by using a short 

bolt with a nut on one end. The patentees also specified diat 

the picker teeth were made of cast steel, the shell of cast iron, 

and the spur wheel of the feeder of cast and wrought iron. 

It is likely that Kellogg and Gillet produced these pickers, 

since in their patent specification they state: "We build diem 

in all die variety of forms and sizes to suit the order, or 

magnitude of the work required, and our improvements are 

applicable to old and new pickers of every form."^ This type 

of information was not usually included in patent specifications.

PATENT 1782: Rag Dressing Machine 

Issued September 10, 1840 

Emery Smith 

North Sudbury, Middlesex Co., Massachusetts 

Smith's machine prepared cotton waste prior to its being cut 

up and dusted and then processed into paper. Aldiough die end 

product is paper, diis model is included because it is in Burke's 

list of patents from Class III (see Appendix A). The cotton 

RGURE 79.—Patent model 1782. (S.L neg. 81-9857) 
NUMBER 49 77 

waste, usually diread obtained from factories, was generally 

twisted and knotted togedier and contained foreign matter diat 

had to be removed before it could be further processed. This 

process was normally performed by hand. Smidi claimed diat 

his machine replaced 30 workers and diereby effected a great 

savings. 

The patented action of die machine consisted of a cylinder 

with rows of forked teeth in combination with a row of pointed 

wires fixed to die inside wall of die box. The teeth and wires 

were so arranged that when die cylinder revolved diey did not 

meet. The cotton was beaten by die tuming of die cylinder, 

which caused die teeth to work die cotton against die wires, 

dius forcing die extraneous materials to separate and fall 

through a wire mesh to the bottom of die machine for 

subsequent removal. The cotton or rags were then considered 

"dressed" and ready for die next step in die papermaking 

process.

PATENT 1838: Rotary Loom Temple 

Issued October 28,1840 

George Draper 

Palmer, Hampden Co., Massachusetts 

George Draper's temple further improved those of his father, 

Ira Draper, patented in 1816 and 1829 (patent 5419x). Ira 

patented the first self-acting rotary temple. George's improvement added a second row of teeth on die wheel of die temple. 

Previously, only a single row was utilized, which tended to 

leave a track of holes in the cloth as it was woven. The double 

row of teeth solved this problem of die fabric being marked 

in a single track. By having a double bearing on the selvage 

of the cloth, each row pulled on different threads and reUeved 

the strain on a single warp yam. It is evident from the patent 

drawings that the only difference between die two temples is 

in die extt-a row of teedi on George's temple wheel. 

From 1816 on, the rotary temple was widely accepted and 

successful. In fact, Ira's invention doubled the number of looms 

that a weaver could handle.^ The Draper family continued to 

improve their temples and bought the rights to other temple 

patents. Eventually they developed the Draper Company into 

the largest temple manufacturer in the world.^

PATENT 1902: Cloth-stretching Machine 

Issued December 14, 1840 

John Tillou 

New Haven, New Haven Co., Connecticut 

Tillou's machine was designed to remove mill wrinkles from 

cloth by stretching it in two directions. The clodi was stretched 

widdiwise by transverse mbbers and was stretched lengthwise 

widi rolling oblique cylinders. The mbbers are missing from 

die model, but are clearly seen in "Fig. l(EE)" of die patent 

drawing (Figure 87). 

In his patent specification, 1902, Tillou noted that this model 

is one-fourth of the size of the machine intended for stretching 

narrow clodi. The size of the machine would vary if used for 

stretching cassimere, satinet, or broadcloth.^

Appendix A 

Complete List of Patents from Class III, 1790-1847 

This appendix, "Manufacturers of fibrous and textile 

substances, including machines for preparing fibres of wool 

cotton, silk, fur, paper, &c." is excerpted from Edmund Burke's 

book. List of Patents for Inventions and Designs, Issued by the 

United States, from 1790 to 1847. Burke's edition is useful 

because the patents are first organized by class and dien 

alphabetically within the class by subject matter, unlike other 

listings which are organized chronologically or by the 

patentee's name. In the case of the three-volume set 

Subject-Matter Index of Patents for Inventions Issued by the 

United States Patent Office from 1790-1873, Inclusive, the 

patents are listed alphabetically according to die subject of 

invention. The textile related patents are not grouped together 

as a class, but as individual subjects, for instance, following 

the listing of looms are loops, lotteries and lounges, which 

makes it difficult to know die scope of the entire set In 

addition, the terminology is inconsistent and does not allow 

for easily locating individual inventions or inventions of a 

simUar nature. 

The starred patents indicate the models illustrated in the 

catalog. Note diat diere are inconsistencies between this list 

and other patent documents with respect to the spelling of the 

inventor's name, the tide of die invention, and the inventor's 

residence. In patents where an assignee is listed, the residence 

is that of die assignee.

Appendix B 

Chronological List of Textile Patent Models 

in the Smithsonian Collections, 1819-1910 

There are more than four thousand patent models in the 

collection of the National Museum of American History's 

Division of Textiles. Most of these models were selected by 

Dr. Frederick Lewton in 1926 when the Patent Office disposed 

of its collection. Prior to 1880, a model, along with the 

inventor's written specification and drawing, was required to 

obtain a patent. Even after the model requirement was dropped 

in 1880, inventors continued to submit models. 

The Patent Office fire of 1836 destroyed all of the models 

that had accumulated up to that time. Shortly thereafter, the 

Patent Office undertook a restoration program to replace the 

most important drawings and models. This restoration program 

continued until 1849, during which time several thousand 

drawings and models were restored. 

The listing does not include sewing machine patent models 

and attachments (approximately 1600). For a complete history 

of sewing machines and a guide to the Division of Textile's 

collection, Grace Cooper's book. The Sewing Machine: Its 

Invention and Development, is suggested as a reference. 

This listing is part of a special computerization project. 

carried out by the author, to compile a database on the 

estimated 10,000 models in the National Museum of American 

History. The textile patent model list spans the years 1819 

through 1910. 

The following information is given for each patent: patent 

number, inventor, type of invention, and year of patent 

issuance. Other items not shown here but included in the 

database are names of additional inventors, month and day of 

patent, city and state residence of inventor, assignee, Smithsonian division in which model is kept, Smithsonian catalog 

number and photographic negative number (if available). The 

database computer project is ongoing and will continue to 

evolve as new information becomes available. As is generally 

true of computerized databases, it is possible to select and sort 

records by any of the information categories listed above. 

Should researchers be interested in further information 

concerning the patent model collection of the Smithsonian 

National Museum of American History, they should contact 

the author. The Division of Textiles is interested in learning 

more about our patent models and would welcome additional 

information.

Glossary 

ASSIGNEE. A person or organization to whom patent rights 

are transferred to by the inventor. This often happens 

when an inventor is working for a company that requires 

him to apply for the patent and then transfer his patent 

rights to his employer. 

CALICO. A general term used for plain cotton cloth of a coarse 

quality, e.g., coarser than muslin. It was not until the end 

of the 18th century that calico came to mean the lowest 

quality of printed cloth. 

CARD. A rectangular wooden implement covered with wire 

teeth used in pairs to card fibers by hand (see CARDING). 

CARDING. An operation, prior to spinning, in which fibers 

(usually wool) are disentangled by the brushing action 

of two closely spaced "toothed" surfaces, which loosely 

align the fibers into a roll (see SLIVER). 

COMBING. The process of straightening and making parallel 

fibers of equal lengths in preparation for spinning into 

yarn. Any impurities and short fibers are removed by 

combs, in combination with brushes and rollers. 

COR A tapered cylinder of yarn used to fill the loom shuttle. 

COTTON WHIPPER. A machine that cleans cotton by beating 

or whipping the uncleaned cotton with rotating spikes 

causing foreign matter to fall out and clumps of cotton 

to separate. 

DOCTOR. Blade on a printing machine that removes surplus 

ink or coloring matter from the printing cylinder. 

FANCY POWER LOOM. A loom that operates by mechanical 

means rather than by hand power and produces cloth 

with an overall woven pattern. 

FLYER. An inverted U-shaped metal guide, the center of 

which is attached to the tip of the spindle, typically on a 

spinning machine. The yarn is twisted by the rotation of 

the arm (guide) around the bobbin. 

GINGHAM. A plain-woven cotton cloth consisting of two or 

more colors that form simple checks, plaids, or stripes. 

HAIR CLOTH. Cloth constructed of a weft of hair from the 

mane or tail of a horse and a warp of cotton or linen. The 

fabric was once popular for upholstering furniture. 

HARNESS. The part of a loom consisting of the frame and 

heddles by which the shedding motion is accomplished 

(see SHEDDING). 

HEDDLE. A cord, wire, or thin flat steel strip wilh an eye near 

the center, through which a warp end is drawn. Heddles 

make up the harnesses that control the shedding action 

of the loom. 

JACKS. An intermediate level on a straight knitting machine 

that transmits motion to the sinkers. 

KNOTTED COUNTERPANE. A bed cover woven of cotton with 

a raised decorative pattern. 

LET-OFF. A mechanism for controlling the motion of a loom 

that releases warp yarns from the warp beam during 

weaving (see TAKE-UP). 

NAPPING. A finishing process used in raising a fibrous surface 

or nap from the basic structure of the fabric, usually 

woolen. This process is also called teazling or gigging. 

PICKER. A machine used in fiber preparation to remove 

foreign matter and break apart die matted cotton or wool. 

ROVING. A long, loose, and continuous strand consisting of 

wool or cotton fibers that have a slight twist. Also the 

process of preparing the fibers for spinning into yarn. 

SATINET A woven cloth made with a cotton warp and a 

woolen filling. 

SH EARING MACHINE. A machine, used in cloth finishing, that 

cuts uneven thread from the face of the cloth in order to 

achieve a uniform height. 

SHED. In weaving, the opening between the warp threads 

through which the shuttle passes and inserts the filling. 

SHEDDING. The operation of producing a shed. 

SHUTTLE. A device that carries the filhng yarn through the 

shed in the process of weaving. There are different types 

of shuttles. A typical shutde is a hollow wooden 

boat-shaped device that contains a bobbin wound with 

filling yarn. 

SHUTTLE-TONGUE. A slender metal rod in the center cavity 

of the shuttle upon which the filling yarn is wound. 

SLAY or SLEY The number of warp ends per inch in cloth. Its 

meaning has been extended to include "high sley" 

denoting a cloth with a large number of warp threads per 

inch. 

SLUBBING. The relatively thick, slightly twisted strands of 

fibers ready for spinning. 

SLIVER. Continuous, loosely assembled fibers, in rope form, 

which lack twist. The process of carding produces fibers 

in this condition. 

SPEEDER. A machine used in cotton yarn spinning that inserts 

a slight twist in the sliver and winds it on the bobbin. 

At this stage, the SLIVER is called ROVING. 

SPINDLE. A slender, tapered metal rod that rotates, upon 

which are fitted spools, bobbins, etc., used in such 

processes as spinning, spooUng, or quilUng. Spindles can 

also be used to produce twist in yarn. 

STOP MOTION MECHANISM. A device utilized on textile 

machines to halt them automatically if the material being 

processed (i.e., thread, roving, etc.) is broken or depleted.

NUMBER 49 145 

STUFFER THREAD. Additional yarns used to increase the 

weight, firmness, or thickness of a fabric. The yarn can 

be used either as warp or weft 

TAKE-UR A mechanism that controls the rate at which cloth 

is worund forward dming weaving. 

TEAZLING. See NAPPING. 

TEMPLES. Devices on each side of a loom frame designed to 

keep the cloth at a uniform widUi during weaving. 

THROSTLE. A type of spinning or twisting frame developed 

in 1790 based on Richard Arkwright's waterframe of 

1769. Arkwright (1732-1792), an Englishman, invented 

cotton spinning machinery using a continuous spinning 

method operated by water power. 

TOW. Short coarse flax or hemp fibers that are separated from 

longer, finer fibers during hackling (a combing process). 

It is mosdy used for spinning into low grade yarn or 

twine. 

WARP. Yarns running lengthwise in a woven fabric, parallel 

to the selvage and interwoven with the WEFT. 

WEFT The yarns of a woven fabric running from selvage to 

selvage at right angles to the warp. Also called "filling" 

or "woof."

Selected Bibliography 

This bibliography is a combination of two subject areas, 

textile technology and information on patents. It is not intended 

to be all encompassing of the fields but rather a compilation 

of the literature relating to the period that is the subject of this 

catalog. 

Of the materials listed in the bibliography, some were more 

helpful than others depending on their scope, content, and 

readability. To those unfamiliar with the patent literature, an 

advantageous beginning would be to read the section on patents 

and the National Archives in Eugene Ferguson's Bibliography 

of the History of Technology. Secondly, Nathan Reingold's 

article "U.S. Patent Office Records as Sources for the History 

of Invention and Technological Property" is valuable for his 

concise overview of the patent records in the National 

Archives. 

Of all the journals researched, the Journal of the Franklin 

Institute proved to be the most useful in providing technical 

information for this catalog. The early volumes are particularly 

important for their pre-1836 patent information; for certain 

patents, they are the only source of information. The four 

volumes of the Journal of the American Institute also contain 

useful technical information, and the reports of the fairs of die 

American Institute relate interesting details about different 

machines and inventors. Scientific American, although in 

general an important journal for technical information, is of 

limited value because it did not begin publication until 1845. 

Other recommended publications include the Rays' book 

entided The Art of Invention: Patent Models and Their Makers, 

for its exquisite color photographs of patent models, and the 

Hagley Museum's catalog entitled Little Machines: Patent 

Models in the Nineteenth Century, written by Ferguson and 

Baer. The latter publication is suggested for its readable 

synopsis of the patent system and a selection of patent models 

in the museum. The Cooper-Hewitt Museum's catalog, 

American Enterprise: Nineteenth-Century Patent Models, is 

excellent for both its photographs and essays.

REQUIREMENTS FOR SMITHSONIAN SERIES PUBLICATION 

Manuscripts intended for series publication receive substantive 

revlevi/ (conducted by their originating Smithsonian museunns or 

offices) and are submitted to the Smithsonian institution Press 

wi\n Form SI-36, which must show the approval of the appropriate 

authority designated by the sponsoring organizational unit. Requests for special treatment—use of color, foldouts, case-bound 

covers, etc.—'require, on the same form, the added approval of 

the sponsoring authority. 

Review of manuscripts and art by the Press for requirements 

of series format and style, completeness and clarity of copy, and 

arrangement of all material, as outlined below, will govern, within 

the judgment of the Press, acceptance or rejection of manuscripts 

and art. 

Copy must be prepared on typewriter or word processor, 

double-spaced, on one side of standard white bond paper (not 

erasable), with VA" margins, submitted as ribbon copy (not 

carbon or xerox), In loose sheets (not stapled or bound), and 

accompanied by original art. Minimum acceptable length is 30 

pages. 

Front matter (preceding the text): should include: title page 

with orvly title and author and no other information, abstract page 

with author, title, series, etc.. following the established format; 

table of contents with indents reflecting the hierarchy of heads in 

the paper; also, foreword and/or preface, if appropriate. 

First page of text should carry the title and author at the top 

of the page; second page should have only the author's name 

and professional mailing address, to be used as an unnumbered 

footnote on the first page of printed text. 

Center heads of whatever level should be typed with initial 

caps of major words, with extra space above and below the head, 

but no other preparation (such as all caps or underline, except for 

the underline necessary for generic and specific epithets). Run-in 

paragraph heads should use period/dashes or colons as necessary. 

Tabulations within text (lists of data, often in parallet columns) 

can be typed on the text page where they occur, but they should 

not contain rules or numbered table captions. 

Formal tables (numbered, with captions, boxheads, stubs, 

rules) stiouid be submitted as carefully typed, double-spaced copy 

separate from the text; they will be typeset unless otherwise 

requested- If camera-copy use is anticipated, do not draw rules 

on manuscript copy. 

Taxonomic keys in natural history papers should use the 

aligned-couplet form for zoology and may use the multi-level 

indent fonn for botany. If cross referencing is required between 

key and textrtf© not include page references within the key. but 

number the keyed^ut taxa, using the same numbers with their 

corresponding heads in the text. 

Synonymy in zoology must use the short form (taxon, author, 

ye8r;page}, with full reference at the end of the paper under 

"Literature Cited." For botany, the long form (taxon, author, 

abbreviated journal or book title, volume, page, year, with no 

reference in "Literature Cited") is optional. 

Text'feferenee system (author, year;page used within the text, 

with full citation in "Literature Cited" at the end of the text) must 

be used in place of bibliographic footnotes in all Contributions 

Series and is strongly recommended in the Studies Series: 

"(Jones, 1910:1.22)" or "...Jones (1910:122)." If bibliographic 

footnotes are required, use the short form (author, brief title, page) 

with the full citation in the bibliography. 

Footnotes, when few in number, whether annotative or bibliographic, should be typed on separate sheets and inserted immediately after the text pages on which the references occur. Extensive notes must be gathered together and placed at the end of 

the text in a notes section. 

Bibliography, depending upon use, is termed "Literature Cited," 

•References," or "Bibliography," Spell out titles of books, articles, 

journals, and monographic series. For book and article titles use 

sentence-style capitalization according to the rules of the langu|ip>mployed (exception: capitalize all major words in English). 

For journal and series titles, capitalize the initial word and all 

subsequent words except articles, conjunctions, and prepositions. 

Transliterate languages that use a non-Roman alphabet according 

to the Library of Congress system. Underline (for italics) titles of 

journals and series and titles of books that are not part of a series. 

Use the parentheses/colon system for volume (numt)er): 

pagination; "10(2):5-9." For alignment and arrangement of elements, follow the format of recent publications in the series for 

which the manuschpt is intended. Guidelines for preparing bibliography may be secured from Series Section, SI Press. 

Legends for illustrations must be submitted at the end of the 

manuscript, with as many legends typed, double-spaced, to a 

page as convenient. 

Illustrations must be submitted as original art (not copies) 

accompanying, but separate from, the manuscript. Guidelines for 

preparing art may be secured from Series Section, SI Press. Ail 

types of illustrations (photographs, line drawings, maps, etc.) may 

be intermixed throughout the printed text. They should be termed 

Figures and should be numbered consecutively as they will 

appear in the monograph. If several illustrations are treated as 

components of a single composite figure, they should be designated by lowercase italic letters on the illustration; also, in the 

legend and in text references the italic letters (underlined in copy) 

should be used: "Figure 9b." Illustrations that are intended to 

follow the printed text may be termed Plates, and any components 

should be similarly lettered and referenced: "Plate 9b." Keys to 

any symbols within an illustration should appear on the art rather 

than in the legend. 

Some points of style: Do not use periods after such abbreviations as "mm, ft, USNM. NNE." Spell out numbers "one" through 

"nine" in expository text, but use digits in all other cases if possible. 

Use of the metric system of measurement is preferable; where 

use of the English system is unavoidable, supply metric equivalents in parentheses. Use the decimal system for precise measurements and relationships, common fractions for approximations. 

Use day/month/year sequence for dates: "9 April 1976." For 

months in tabular listings or data sections, use three-letter abbreviations with no periods: "Jan, Mar, Jun," etc. Omit space between 

initials of a personal name: "J.B. Jones." 

Arrange and paginate sequentially every sheet of manuscript in the following order: (1) title page, (2) abstract, (3) contents, (4) foreword and/or preface, (5) text. (6) appendixes, (7) 

notes section. (8) glossary, (9) bibliography, (10) legends, (11) 

tables. Index copy may be submitted at page proof stage, but 

plans for an index should be indicated when manuscript is submitted.
