cream
This invention relates to improvements in means or apparatus for separating or
drawing off the milk from the cream in vessels or pans commonly known as
raisers.' Into a circular hole through the bottom of the vessel or pan I fit a metal
socket having a conical or tapered interior which receives a tapered plug surrounding
the lower end of a metal stand pipe whose upper end extends to a convenient height
above the surface of the milk. The lower end of the stand pipe immediately above
the plug (whose upper surface is on a level with or slightly lower than the bottom of
the vessel or pan) is pierced or perforated either with narrow slits or very small
holes large enough to allow the milk to pass through and escape but not the cream
which when the milk has been run off remains at the bottom of the vessel or pan.
Upon the outside of the stand pipe I mount a sliding ferrule or elongated hoop which
is so much shorter than the stand pipe that when the top of the ferrule is drawn up
level with the top of the stand pipe the slits or perforations near the bottom of the
stand pipe are exposed and thereby allow the milk to pass through and escape. On
the other hand when the ferrule is pressed down so that its bottom edge rests upon
the upper surface of the taper plug below access to the slits and perforations is
stopped and the exit closed. The sliding ferrule is provided near its upper end with
projections or finger pieces by the aid of which the up and down sliding movement
of the ferrule is effected. When the cream resting upon the bottom of the vessel or
pan is to be run off the stand pipe apparatus as above described is lifted out of the
socket below and may thereupon be taken to pieces and readily washed and cleansed.

I, FRANCIS RICHMOND, of Green Bank, Colne, in the County of Lancaster,
Agricultural and Dairy Engineer, do bereby declare the nature of this invention and
in what manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly described and

cream
This invention relates to improvements in means or apparatus for separating or
drawing off the milk from the cream in vessels or pans commonly known as
raisers." Into a circular hole through the bottom of the vessel or pan I fit a metal
-socket having a conical or tapered interior which receives a tapered plug surrounding
the lower end of a metal stand pipe whose upper end extends to a convenient height
above the surface of the contents of the vessel.
The lower end of the stand pipe immediately above the plug (whose upper surface
is on a level with or slightly lower than the bottom of the vessel or pan) is pierced
or perforated either with narrow slits or very small holes large enough to allow the
milk to pass through and escape but not the cream which when the milk has been.
run off remains at the bottom of the vessel or pan. Upon the outside of the stand
pipe I mount a sliding ferrule or elongated hoop which is so much shorter than the
stand pipe that when the top of the ferrule is drawn up level with the top of the
stand pipe the slits or perforations near the bottom of the stand pipe are exposed and
thereby allow the milk to pass through and escape. On the other hand when the
ferrule is pressed down so that its hottom edge rests upon or on a level with the
upper surface of the taper plug below access to the slits and perforations is stopped
and the exit closed. The sliding ferrule is provided near its upper end with projections
or finger pieces by the aid of which the up and down sliding movements of the
ferrule is effected. When the cream resting upon the bottom of the vessel or pan is
to be run off the stand pipe apparatus as above described is lifted out of the socket
below and may thereupon be taken to pieces and readily washed and cleansed.
In Figs. 1 to 5 of the accompanying drawings a is the metal socket arranged to
fit tightly into a hole in the bottom of the vessel or pan the said socket having a
tapered interior (see sectional view at Fig. 3) which receives the tapered part or
plug forming the lower end of the stand pipe c. dd are slits through the lower
part of the stand pipe c (see also sectional view at Fig. 6). e is the sliding ferrule
or elongated hoop provided with the finger pieces f, f, for facilitating the raising and
lowering of the ferrule for effecting the opening or closing operation as required.
The forrule e is slightly opened out at its lower end so as to fit and make a water
tight joint with a tapered part or seating y on the stand pipe c.
At Fig. 4 the stand pipe c is shewn lifted out of or detached from the socket a for
the purpose of being cleaned or washed-out..

page_text: Figs. 1 & 3 shew the apparatus when closed and Fig. 2 when open.
Fig. 5 is a plan view of the apparatus; and Fig. 6 shews an enlargement in cross
section of that part of the stand pipe c through which the slits d d are pierced.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of the said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed 1 declare that what I
claim is:-
1. In vessels or pans known as cream raisers" the use or employment of a stand
pipe pierced near its lower end in such manner as to allow the milk to pass through
and escape but not the cream substantially as described and shewn in the drawings.
2. In combination with a stand pipe pierced near its lower end in the manner and
for the purpose indicated in claim 1 the use or employment of a sliding ferrule or
hoop such as e for the purpose of closing or opening the access of the milk to the
said stand pipe substantially as described and shewn in the drawings.

PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in the Manufacture of Braces or Suspenders.
I, WOLFF ROTHSCHILD of Barmen in the Empire of Germany Manufacturer do
hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
According to this invention brace ends are formed of lengths of woven fabric having
their upper portions made of elastic weaving with longitudinal warps of india rubber
thread tied in in any ordinary way of weaving elastic fabrics and having their lower
portions where a button hole is to be formed in them made of inelastic fabric containing
no elastic thread and with the button hole formed in them in the weaving.
To form these ends a length of elastic fabric is woven in any ordinary way with the
inelastic outer warps woven in a twill of any desired pattern to give the required
elasticity to the fabric and with the india rubber thread led straight down the fabric
as is usual in the manufacture of elastic fabrics and near the lower end wherein a
button hole is to be formed the weaving is changed to straight weaving to tie the
rubber threads and hold them securely. When a narrow band of such weaving has
been formed of sufficient length to securely hold the portion of rubber thread woven
into it the rubber warps are cut and a plain inelastic weaving is continued for a
distance without the rubber warps and in this portion a button hole is formed in the
weaving. The extremity of the brace end beyond the button hole may be cut off to a
rounded form and bound over with suitable binding.

statement :-
According to this invention brace ends are formed of lengths of woven fabric having

thread tied in any ordinary way of weaving elastic fabrics and having their lower portion

The extremity of the brace end beyond the button hole may be cut off to a rounded

Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what I
claim is :-
:-
1. Brace ends made of one piece of woven fabric the part where the button hole is
formed being inelastic and the other part elastic.
2. The process of weaving brace ends substantially as described.
