Year: 1883

page_text: LETTERS PATENT to Henry James Newport, of Beer Lane, in the City of
London, for an Invention of "AN IMPROVED DEVICE FOR THE BEATING OR
MIXING OF EGGS, BATTER, AND SIMILAR MATTER
"
PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION left by the said Henry James Newport ab
the Office of the Commissioners of Patents on the 27th August 1883.
HENRY JAMES NEWPORT, of Beer Lane, in the City of London, "AN IMPROVED
DEVICE FOR THE BEATING OR MIXING OF EGGS, BATTER, AND SIMILAR MATTER
"
My invention relates to a device for the beating or mixing of eggs, batter, and
any similar semiliquid matter; and it is designed to effect the aforesaid beating
or mixing in a speedy, simple, and efficacious manner.
My device is of the following nature:-
A cylinder is constructed with its bottom coned or domed inwardly, and this
forms the beating or mixing chamber. The beater consists of a rod having at its
lower end a plunger piston, consisting of a plate in the form of a cone or dome
corresponding, to, and fitting over the bottom of the cylinder. This piston is
perforated throughout with perforations suitable to the nature of the matter to be
mixed, and it is of sufficient diameter to only permit bare clearance between its
edge and the walls of the cylinder. The top of the rod is fitted with a ring or .
crosshead to allow of a firm grip, and the bottom of the cylinder may, where the
beater is of large dimensions, be fitted with projecting base or pieces on which to
stand, and steady the cylinder whilst reciprocating the plunger,
SPECIFICATION in pursuance of the conditions of the Letters Patent filed by
the said Henry James Newport in the Patent Office on the 27th February
1884.
HENRY JAMES NEWPORT, of Beer Lane, in the City of London, "AN IMPROVED
DEVICE FOR THE BEATING OR MIXING OF EGGS, BATTER, AND SIMILAR MATTER
"
My invention relates to a device for the beating or mixing of eggs, batter, and
any similar semi liquid matter; and it is designed to effect the aforesaid beating or
mixing in a speedy, simple, and efficacious manner.

page_text: In order that my invention may be the better understood, I now proceed to
describe the same in regard to the accompanying sheet of drawings, reference being
had to the letters and figures marked thereon. Like letters refer to like parts
throughout the figures.
Figure 1 shows an elevation of my device.

Figure 2 shows a sectional elevation of my device with certain modifications.
Figure 3 shows an elevation of my device when of large size.
Figure 4 shows a plan of my device in a modified form.
A cylinder A is constructed with its bottom coned or doomed inwardly, and this
forms the benting or mixing chamber. The beater consists of a rod B, having at
its lower end a plunger piston C, consisting of a plate in the form of a cone or
dome, corresponding to and fitting over the bottom of the cylinder. This piston is
perforated throughout with perforations suitable to the nature of the matter to be
mixed, and it is of sufficient, dinmeter to only permit bare clearance between its
edge and the wall of the cylinder. The top of the rod is fitted with a ring or
crosshead D, to allow of a brm grip, and the bottom of the cylinder may, where
the benter is of large dimensions, be fitted with a projecting base E or pieces, on
which to stand and steady the cylinder whilst reciprocating the plunger; this may
be seen in figure 3.
A removable cap may be provided to fit over the top of the cylinder, having a
hole through which the plunger rod passes, or a disc may be attached to the
plunger rod.
It will be advantageous under some circumstances, such as when drinks are to
be mixed, to provide a bandle F (figure 2) on the cylinder; or where the cylinder
is of large dimensions, handles F (figure 3) may be provided.
Though I have specified the beating chamber as a cylinder, yet it might, without
departing from my invention, be square, as shown in plan in figure 4, or of other
form.
Having now fully described and ascertained the nature and objects of my
invention, and the manner of its performance, be it known that I claim:-
First. The combination in a beater of a chamber having a coned or domed
bottom, with a perforated plunger piston barely clearing its walls, and domed or
cond to correspond, substantially as set forth.
Second. The combination with such a beater of alternative handles and foot
rests, substantial y' as set forth.
In witness whereof I, the said Henry James Newport, have hereunto set my
hand and seal his twenty-seventh day of February in the year of our Lord one
thousand sight, hundred and eighty-four.
