I ERNEST HERBERT CHESTERTON of 46, Hampton Street Birmingham in the
County of Warwick Gentleman, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be
as follows:-
My invention consists of a combination of cog wheels worked by a spring of any
suitable description, by preference I use a steel ribbon spring as being less costly, this
combination of cog-wheels is contained in a framework of metal the spindles of the
large cog wheel being prolonged on the underside in order that a key or thumb piece
may be fixed on to wind the machinery up. To the second wheel is attached on the
underside to the spindle of the same, a strong metal loop or hook from which to
suspend the meat.
A fan is attached to a prolonged spindle on the top side of the framework which
spindle is driven by the cog wheel arrangement. The object of this fan being to
control the speed of the clock work.
The whole is contained in a suitable metal case with a suitable handle to be
suspended before the fire.

county of Warwick gentleman and JOSEPH WANGLER of 45. Bath Street Birmingham
in the county of Warwick Watch and Clock Maker do hereby declare the nature of
this invention and in what manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly
described and ascertained in and by the following statement :-
Our invention consists of a combination of cog wheels and pinions worked by a
suitable spring made of steel (such as are in clocks) and forming a Train of wheels and
pinions. This combination of cog-wheels and pinions is contained in a framework of
metal or any other substance that will answer the purpose and forms a similar move-
ment to that of a clock movement.
The spindle or arbor of the large cog-wheel being prolonged on the under side in
order that a Key or Thumb-piece may be fixed on to wind the spring up or in place
of a key a Lever may be used for winding the spring up similar to that of a musical
box this key or Lever could be worked underneath where we prefer to have it or on
the side or the top of the case.
The next pinion or arbor upon which is mounted the second wheel is also
'prolonged on the underside to which is attached a strong metal loop or hook from
which to suspend the meat upon this pinion arbor which carries the weight of the
meat is fixed a Shoulder or Bearing (either round or otherwise) this shoulder or
bearing can either be on the inside of the frame work or could be placed on the top
end of the pinion arbor or could be suspended and held up by any other attachment
this shoulder or bearing could also be fixed upon a pinion arbor and run in one of the
wheels independent of the rest of the wheels in the train this Bearing or Shoulder
could also be put upon a pinion or arbor or spindle and driven with Bevel Wheel
connection.
A Fan or Fly which we term to be one and the same thing is attached to a
prolonged pinion arbor on the top side of the frame work the same pinion arbor being
driven by the cog wheel arrangement otherwise called a train of wheels the object of
this fan being to control the speed or rate of revolution this can be made suitable to
be inside the framework or immediately outside thereof or as at present constructed
namely fixed on a prolonged pinion arbor and work outside the case which encloses
the movement and is therefore visible answering the purpose of an indicator showing
whether the meat is rotating, when at a distance from it this fan is made of various
sizes and weight to get more or less revolutions.
A fan could be used which could be opened and closed for regulating the rate of
motion.
The movement is placed in a case in such a position namely it is laid flat so that
the pinions are perpendicular but could also be laid on its end or side but we prefer as
stated for it to be laid flat.
The movement is contained in a suitable case we prefer metal with a suitable handle
to suspend it before the fire.
