Little Fountain Street, Morley, near Leeds, Millwright do hereby declare the
nature of this invention to be as follows:-
The object of our invention is to improve certain parts of milling machines for
the milling of textile fabrics, that the milling shall be done more efficiently, and the
risk of damages to the fabrics being milled shall be reduced.
In carrying out our invention, we make the framework of the machine in a
similar manner to those in general use.
We make the throat or mouth piece of metal; the lid, tongue plate, side plates
or other parts of the spout we also make of metal; the top and bottom rollers
and their flanges we also make of metal; the knocking-off board and draught-
board we also make of metal. The throat or mouth-piece; the lid, tongue plate,
side plates or other parts of the spout; the top and bottom rollers and their
flanges; the knocking-off and draught-boards, we then enamel by any of the
well known processes of metal enamelling. We fix the throat or mouth piece,
the spout, the top and bottom rollers, the knocking-off board and draught-board
into the machine in the ordinary manner, as is in general use. The machine is
put in motion, in the manner usual in milling machines.
