Improved Appliance for Supplying Glucose Syrup or other Material
to Preserving Pans when Boiling.
I, ERNEST LODGE NEWSOME of Kent Road, Blackpool, in the County of Lancaster,
Mineral Water Manufacturer, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be
as follows:-
This invention is designed to provide an improved appliance for supplying
glucose grape sugar syrup sugar or other substance or material in a liquid or semi-
liquid state to preserve boiling pans when boiling.
It comprises a vessel open at one end and at the other fitted with a suitable valve
this end of the vessel being preferably tapering towards the centre at which point
the valve is placed.
At the end at which the valve is situated I form three four or more legs or
supports to enable the vessel to stand upright and to such legs or supports I
pivotally attach a handle by which the vessel can be suspended to hang the reverse
side uppermost.
Instead of the legs or supports a separate or independent stand or frame may be
employed in which case the handle should be pivoted to the side of the vessel.
On one side of the vessel is inscribed a scale to indicate the weight of material
and a second handle is affixed thereto.
The valve is of any suitable form either lift valve, clack valve, mushroom valve
or the like.
When in use the desired quantity of the glucose or other material is filled into
the vessel and it is then taken and reversed over the pan and suspended there by
the pivoted handle being placed over a hook or stud. The valve opens inwards
to admit air and allow the material to flow out into the pan the steam
from the pan rises up into the vessel and softens or melts all of the material
adhering to the sides of the vessel so that the vessel is emptied completely and
no waste occurs.

page_text: in what manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly described and
ascertained in and by the following statement: —
This invention is designed to provide an improved appliance for supplying
glucose grape sugar syrup sugar or other substance or material in a liquid or semi-
liquid state to preserve boiling pans when boiling.
It comprises a vessel open at one end and at the other fitted with a suitable
valve, this end of the vessel being preferably tapering towards the centre at which
point the valve is placed.
It will be fully described with reference to the drawing in which is shown a
section elevation of the appliance inverted over preserve boiling pan to discharge
the contents.
The vessel A is constructed of metal (or other suitable material) preferably
cylindrical or slightly conical. At one end it is perfectly open, at the other end
it is provided with a contracted orifice a provided with an air valve B of mushroom
or other suitable shape. The valve B closes when the vessel is placed with the
contracted end below the open end, and it opens when the vessel is reversed or
inverted, as in the drawing, admitting air to the interior of the vessel.
The vessel when in an upright position to be filled, is placed on an independent
stand or frame of suitable shape to receive the contracted orifice and support the
vessel.
Or if desired, the vessel may be provided with three or more suitable legs or
feet to hold it with the open end uppermost.
To the vessel I also pivotally attach a handle C which will serve to suspend it
in an inverted position as shown in the drawings.
A second handle may be affixed to one side of the vessel, and it is inscribed with
a scale D to indicate the weight or quantity of material.
When in use the vessel A is supported upright upon a stand with the open end
uppermost and the contracted end and orifice a beneath, and the desired quantity
of the glucose grape sugar or other material poured or filled into it. It is then
taken and reversed or inverted as shown over the preserving pan E, and suspended
there by the pivoted handle engaging with a hook e or its equivalent depending
from or attached to a beam.
The valve opens inwards to admit air, and allow the material to flow out into the
pan, the steam from the boiling pan rises up into the vessel, and softens or melts
the material adhering to the sides of the vessel, so that the vessel is emptied
completely and no waste occurs.

Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of the said
invention and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what I
dlaim is:
An improved appliance for supplying glucose syrup or other material to preserving
pans when boiling substantially as described and shown.
