I WALTER DERBY HUTCHINSON of 3 and 4 Great Winchester Street in the City
of London India rubber manufacturer do hereby declare the nature of this said
invention and in what manner the same is to be performed to be particularly
described and ascertained in and by the following statement:-
This invention bas for its object the strengthening of boots and shoes made
either of india rubber or a combination of india rubber with other substances.
It is well known that the heels of india rubber boots and shoes as generally
manufactured are very liable to become detached (by wear) from the uppers on
account of being made very thin at the junction of these parts.
Now according to this invention I am enabled to strengthen the above named
parts of this class of boots and shoes between the soles and the uppers and this
I effect substantially as follows:-reference being had to the sheet of drawings
accompanying this specification in which fig. 1 shews longitudinal section of a shoe
manufactured according to my said invention. Fig. 2 shews side view of same.
Fig. 3 detached view hereinafter referred to.
The boot or shoe may be first made in the ordinary way and before vulcanizing,
the heel cup piece a is attached to the outside of the heel portion as shown at
figures 1 and 2. These pieces may be either plain or rough as shewn in the
drawing.
By these means the heel and sole will not be liable to become detached as is
now the case the thickness being far greater at those parts as will be seen on
reference to figure 1 at c or the piece a may be applied during the manufacture of
the boot or shee.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of this said
inveution and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what
I claim is
Firstly. The attachment of an extra cup piece to the exterior heel portion of boots
and shoes made either partially or entirely of india rubber substantially as and for
the purpose set forth.
Secondly, Boots and shoes manufactured substantially as set forth.

IMPROVEMENT IN MACHINERY FOR TURNING POTTERY WARE
Year: 1886

page_text: I JAMES PLANT Registry Street Works Stoke on Trent in the County of
Stafford Earthenware Manufacturer do hereby declare the nature of my invention
for IMPROVEMENT IN MACHINERY FOR TURNING POTTERY WARE and in what manner
the same is to be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and by
the following statement :-
My invention has for its object improvement in machinery for turning pottery
ware which enables me to turn any round article with a fixed speed or a graduating
speed which is so easily regulated without the use of the workmans hands.
In order that my invention may be clearly understood and more easily carried
into practice I have appended hereunto two sheets of drawings.
Figure 1, is a frunt elevation of the machine in which the parts below and above
the bench are shown.
Figure 2 is a side elevation of the same machine showing the parts as there is
seen both above and below the bench level. The wood bench A carries lathe heads and
suitable gearing, B B B cast iron brackets which is bolted to the framework and
carries spindle and cone pully C the chuck D is screwed on the cone spindle C.
L L are standards carrying driving shaft which are bolted to frame work which
carries driving shaft F and cone pulley E and loose and fast strap or belt pulleys I I
and J. The guide rod S is connected with lever K and is suitably bolted to the
bench. Strap guards T T are connected with guide rod S. The lever K is for
starting the machine or stopping it or throwing the belt on to the loose pulleys I I
or fast pulley J. This lever K thus altering the belt changes the motion from
forward to backward at the will of the workman. The machine is driven by
2 belts the one G. for driving in a forward motion Belt H is a crossed-belt for
driving in a backward motion. The belt O. O. on cone pulleys C and E drives
chuck D. The rest M is where the workman rests his turning tool and places the
article required to be turned on chuck D and the belt guard W is double forked
thus the belt is more easily worked to any parts of the cone pulleys E and C;
graduating the speed at the will of the workinan. The belt O O. is worked along
the cone pulleys by the workman pressing his foot down on the lever N. The
standard Z Z which are bolted down to the bench carring belt guard X. X. and
doubled fork guide W. The brackets Y Y which are bolted to the framework
and carries balance weight P. and lever I X.
thus

page_text: Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said
Invention and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what
I claim is:
1. The improvement in machinery for turning pottery ware which is capable of
turning any round article with a fixed or graduating speed at the will of the
workman without the use of the workmans hands or second person.

page_text: I FREDERICK FOSTER of Niagara Works Eagle Wharf Road Hoxton in the
County of Middlesex Engineer 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:-
This invention relates to improvements in the construction of stoppers for bottles
such as form the subject of iny Patent No 4909 dated October 16 1882.
The improvement consists in adapting the stopper to receive an elastic washer in
the form of a short length of tubing in such a manner that one end of the tubular
washer is employed to grip the stopper while the other end serves to make an air
tight joint by being compressed within the bottle neck.
I make the stopper with a groove and an angular part above the screw thread
to give a circular form to the elastic tubular washer one end of. which grips firmly
in the groove referred to so as to avoid the possibility of the washer separating
from the stopper when unscrewing it as it will occasionally do (when the washer
is simply stretched over a flat surface) by reason of the washer becoming set in the
bottle neck to which it will adhere if left long standing in the same position.
Figs. 1 and 2 of the accompanying drawings show respectively a plan and an
elevation of a screw stopper in accordance with this invention, the elastic tubular
washer being removed.
The slots A are formed in the head of the stopper for the purpose of holding the
stopper by a gripping device which forms part of a bottling machine (the subject
of my Patent No 2426 dated May 23 1882) used for filling and stoppering bottles
fitted with such stoppers. The stoppers may be moulded of any suitable plastic
material or may be made of any suitable wood.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said
invention and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what
I claim is:
Stoppers of any suitable plastic material or of wood having a groove to receive
one end of an elastic tubular washer and an angular part over which the remainder
of the clastic tubular washer is stretched so as to make the joint in the bottle neck
by the upper edge of the elastic tubular washer, and slotted as a means of holding
such stoppers in a filling machine all substantially as described and illustrated by
the accompanying drawings.

the County of Worcester, Manufacturer do hereby declare the nature of my said
invention and in what manner the same is to be performed to be particularly
described and ascertained in and by the following statement:—
This invention has for its object improvements in Foods, Meals, Cakes and
Biscuits for the use of Animals, Horse, Cows, Calves, Pigs, Sheep, Dogs, Game,
Poultry, Pigeons, Canaries, Rabbits and other similar purposes which is intended
either to be added to a single ingredient in its simple state or to be mixed with a
combination of other food ingredients of various kinds or to be mixed with any
special preparation used for food.
My invention consists in the admixture of Cod Liver oil in various proportions
with meal in a simple state or the meal may be made up with a variety of other
ingredients according to the requirement of the case or the oil may be mixed with
the component parts of any preparation special or otherwise and any preparation
or simple ingredient so treated shall in consequence of the addition of Cod Liver
Oil then become and be sold as a meal containing the Cod Liver Oil in an absorbed
form.
In other cases the above would be mixed together in a proper condition and be
pressed into suitable cakes and sold in that form or in other cases biscuits would
be baked therefrom but in each and every case the meal and other ingredients.
would have the Cod Liver Oil forced into them by pressing or other-wise as the
case required.

page_text: Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said
invention and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what
I claim is :-
The improvements in Foods Meals Cakes and Biscuits for the use of Animals,

page_text: 1, ROBERT BARTON, Saddler, 46, William Street, Great Clifton, near Workington,
Cumberland, 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 :-
This invention relates to improvements in Harness Shaft Bearers for Cabs, Gigs, &c.,
and consists in the improvements hereinafter described.
The bearer b. buckle a. and loop c. are made in one solid casting of steel, brass, or
other suitable metal. The advantage of making these solid without hinge or joint, is,
that there is no wear on the top of bearer there being no working parts.
The advantage of substituting metal for leather, in the bearer and loop, is greater
durability.
An ordinary buckle tongue is used, and is inserted in the ordinary manner, a hole d
being made in the metal casting, between the bearer and buckle, to receive the same.
To minimise the friction on the shaft and saddle, the bearer is made thickest in the
middle, and tapered to the edges, inside, for the shaft, the outside is also rounded
slightly for the saddle.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said Invention,
and in what manner the same is to be performed 1 declare that what I claim is,
1. The combination of a shaft bearer, buckle, and loop, in one solid casting of metal.
2. The substitution of metal for leather, in the shaft bearer and loop of said
combination.

I, HENRY TANNER, of No. 3 Glenthorne Road, Blackhorse Lane, Walthamstow,
in the County of Essex, Steam Sawyer 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:-
I construct this toy or model horse or other animal, and give motion to the legs, in
the following manner :-
The legs are each pivoted at, and are free to ossilate round the screws or pins G,
Fig. 1, fixed in the body; they are connected together on each side of the body by
coupling rods or bars E, attached at H, above and below the centres G, so that as one
is advanced, the other-on the same side-is thrown back, and vice versa. The bars E
are themselves connected by the vibrating piece F pivoted at its centre, and so move
in opposite directions to each other; this piece F pivoted at K to, and working
through opening in body, is also shown in Sectional plan Fig. 2, where its ends are
seen working in slots in bars E. The model is carried on a wheel or wheels J, so
that the legs in working shall just clear the ground, on motion being given to it.
To the axle of one of the wheels, or to the wheel itself is fixed a crank, or eccentric B
this crank or eccentric is connected by the rod I to a pin or screw C, fixed at a
suitable point in one of the legs. The result of this combination and construction is,
that on motion being imparted in any way to the model, so that the driving wheel is
made to revolve, the legs will move in a nearly natural manner, similar to the noble
action of the living animal. It must be understood that the parts shown for con-
necting the legs, will be covered in from view, by suitable side pieces. The legs may
be jointed at A, to improve the action.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said Invention,
and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I claim is :
Firstly: In a toy horse or other animal, the use of the coupling bars E, as, and
for the purpose hereinbefore described and shown.
Secondly The vibrating piece F, for connecting the coupling bars, as, and for the
purpose hereinbefore described and shown.
:-
Thirdly The combination of the coupling bars with the vibrating piece, and
method of connecting the legs, as, and for the purpose herein before described and
shown.

page_text: I ALFRED DICKENSON of Tramway Depôt Darlaston in the County of Stafford
Tramway Manager do hereby declare the nature of my said invention and in what
manner the same is to be performed to be particularly described and ascertained
in and by the following statement :-
This invention has for its object improvements in dummy points for tramways
and is for the purpose of avoiding the necessity as much as possible of having to
disturb the roadway by taking these parts of the tramway up so often for these
dummy points require frequent renewal which disturbs the foundation and
surroundings for some distance and so interferes with the traffic besides causing
a considerable expense for such renewal.
In order that my invention may be clearly understood and more easily carried
into practice I have appended hereunto a sheet of drawings upon which a dummy
point is illustrated and from which other modifications may be easily constructed
when the principle is clearly seen but I do not of course contine myself to the
particular design shown as considerable variation may be made in such as well as
in the distribution of bolts or other fastenings.
Figure 1. is a side elevation of the dummy point.
Figure 2. is a plan of the same.
Figure 3. is an elevation of the other side of the dummy point.
Figure 4. is a plan of the point with the part E removed.
Figure 5. is an elevation of one end of the part E and Figure 6 is an elevation of
the other end thereof.
In Figure 4 it will be noticed that the part of the point A is made or cast with
the recess B therein but the web a is left in its entirety or almost so. In this
recess B I fit the part E and secure it by either bolts or rivets or other convenient
means to the web a¹ and thus when the part or junction of the two lines H and K
is much worn it can be taken out and a new piece put therein without much
difficulty, trouble or expense. The dummy point may if found necessary be
strengthened at a³ to compensate for the piece B cut out. These points A and
loose piece E may be made from cast steel or other suitable metal. The loose
part E is shown more clearly by Figures 5 and 6.

invention and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what
I claim is 1-
The improvements in dummy points by which a renewable piece E may be
inserted in the body of the point A without renewing the whole substantially as
herein set forth.

We EDWARD WRIGHT WRIGLEY of Thornycroft, Werneth, Oldham, in the County
of Lancaster, Cotton Spinner, and ROBERT PATTERSON of 58 Greengate Street,
Oldham, in the County of Lancaster, Manager, do hereby declare the nature of our
invention and in what manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly
described and ascertained in and by the following statement:-
-
"
The object of this invention is improvements in throstles, ring frames and other
analagous machinery wherby double ends and "catch ends are prevented, and
also to obviate loose broken ends wrapping round the necks of the under clearers.
On the accompanying drawing Fig. 1 represents a front view and Fig. 2 an end
view of so much of the drawing rollers of a trostle as is necessary to illustrate our
improvements which are shewn applied thereto.
In performing our invention we employ a wire support a affixed to the top of
the hook b which hangs upon the top leather roller c or supported in any other
convenient manner, and upon this wire a we hang a plate or flap d (by preference
constructed of thin metal) the lower edge of which plate d so long as the thread e
is intact as seen in Fig. 2. is supported at an angle thereby by resting upon such
thread but in case of the thread breaking, the lower edge of this plate d being no
longer supported by the thread, falls by its own gravity in contact with the under
clearer f as indicated by the dotted lines in Fig. 2. and so ensures the broken thread
wrapping wrapping round the said under clearer. By this application of a plate or
Hap d to each thread, double threads are rendered impossible and "catch ends " are
effectually prevented flying off to the adjoining threads or getting on to the neck
of the clearers.
The improvements it will be obvious are equally applicable to other similar
machinery for preparing twisting or spinning fibrous material and to both new and
existing machinery for such purposes.

page_text: Having thus particularly described and ascertained the nature of our inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed we declare that what
we claim is
The employment in throstles, ringframes and other similar machinery for
preparing spinning and twisting fibrous material, of a flap or plate resting upon
and partially supported by the thread and operating substantially as and for the
purposes herein before described and illustrated on the accompanying drawing.

Carbonaphthol Acid Alkaline Salts.
I JAMES YATE JOHNSON of 47 Lincoln's Inn Fields in the County of Middlesex
Gentleman do hereby declare the nature of this Invention which has been com-
municated to me from abroad by Dr Carl Kolbe, Chemist and Carl Rentsch
Merchant both of Radebeul near Dresden Saxony in the Empire of Germany
trading under the style or firm of Dr F. Von Heyden, Nachfolger and in what
manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained
in and by the following statement:-
In the Specification of Letters Patent N° 6134 dated the 19th day of May 1885
granted for Dr Carl Kolbe and Carl Rentsch's Invention there is described a process
of manufacturing alpha and beta Carbonaphthol acid alkaline salts in which the
alkaline salts of alpha or beta naphthol are treated with dry carbonic acid at
ordinary temperature for the production of the alkaline salts of acid carbonic
naphthol ethers the salts thus obtained being afterwards converted in a closed vessel
at a temperature of 120° to 140° Centigrade into the simple alkaline salts of the
alpha or beta carbonaphthol acid.
By recent experiments made by my foreign correspondents they have ascertained
that the above mentioned process may be simplified by gaining the same result by
one stage or directly instead of indirectly or by two stages as is necessary in the
hereinbefore first mentioned process.
According to the present Invention the carbonic acid is caused to re-act on the
alkaline salts of the alpha or beta naphthol not at an ordinary temperature as in
the aforesaid former process but under pressure in a closed vessel and at a tem-
perature of from 120° to 145° Centigrade by which means the alpha or beta
carbonaphthol acid alkaline salts are in nascent condition converted into the
respective neutral alpha and beta carbonaphthol acid alkaline salta

page_text: Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of this Inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what
I claim is
In the process of manufacturing alpha or beta Carbonaphthol acid alkaline salts
as hereinbefore indicated re-acting upon the alkaline salts of the alpha or beta
naphthols by carbonic acid under pressure and at a temperature of from 120° to
145° Centigrade for the purposes described.

page_text: cation to me from abroad by Robert Einenkel of Dresden, Saxony, and in what
manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained
in and by the following statement :-
This invention relates to improvements in the naves chiefly designed for carriage
wheels.
In the annexed drawing I have shown the said invention.
Figures 1 and 2 show sections along the axle or shaft.
Figure 3 a section transversely to the shaft.
These figures show this invention the object of which is to provide a nave or hub
for wheels which admits of securing the wheel upon the axle, journal or the like
firmly and in a simple manner, whilst the nave is of but little weight though being
very durable.
The construction of such a nave or hub is as follows.
The spokes are fixed by means of two metal discs a, a¹ Each of these discs or
plates is bored out to suit the axle-The discs a and a¹ are connected by means of
a comparatively speaking thin metal tube 6 which is either fitted over two
projecting flanges on the discs as shown in fig. 1. or is let into recesses in the plates
as shown in fig. 2.
The discs a, a¹ and tube b are held together by the tension between the several
parts when the spokes are in place and surrounded by the felloe.
Into the annular spaco enclosed by the tubular piece b a second tube or sleeve c is
inserted, the internal diameter is suited to the diameter of the axle the length of
said tube c being equal to the distance between the two discs a, a¹.
A screw d passes through a suitable perforation in the tube b and is as will be
seen in the drawings, and penetrates the axle or journal.-This screw has at its
lower end a smooth portion and a suitable heal at the upper end and by these
the screw engages with the hub and fixes the wheel, the lower end taking into
a hole in c.

page_text: As the two discs a and a¹ bear against the ends of the tubular centre c the fixing
of the latter as above set forth holds the wheel firmly upon the axle.
By these means the wheel is prevented from slipping off the axle as if at any
time the screw d'should become loose its head will scrape against the tube b and
thus act as a brake until the wheel is fixed again whilst at the same time the
tube b prevents the screw coming out altogether.
The disc a' which closes the hub in front prevents the entrance of dust and dirt
and no caps need therefore be employed for that purpose.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said
invention and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what
I claim is
A hub for wheels consisting of the two discs a, a¹ the connecting tube b and the
tube c together with the screw d all combined and arranged substantially as set
forth and shown in the accompanying drawing.

page_text: I, DAVID GREENHALGH of 10 Devon Street, Haulgh, Bolton, in the County of
Lancaster, Manager, do hereby declare the nature of my said invention and in
what manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly described and
ascertained in and by the following statement:-
The object of this invention is to make a cloth with a plain yarn ground and
a fine plain or coarse plain embossed figure suitable for white or colored quilts or
quiltings and table covers.
This cloth is to be known by name "Victoria,"
To enable this cloth to be made the loom is gaited with jacquard machines and
two comber boards to work separately to make a plain ground, and with two or
more healds.
One or two ends are drawn in from the healds in each space of the
reed, and one or two mails to each space of the reed, also with two mail ends and
one heald to each space of the reed.
Two yarn beams are employed in the manufacture of this cloth with separate
tensions.
This cloth can be made in single shuttlo looms, also in double box looms.
"
In "picking" or "wefting this cloth in double box looms I employ the
following method:-
1st pick. First heald up and first comber board up and machine down for
fine pick.
2nd pick. First heald up and machine up for coarse pick.
3rd pick. First heald up and machine up for coarse pick.
4th pick. Second heald up and machine up for coarse pick.
5th pick. Second heald up and machine up for coarse pick.
6th pick. Second heald up and second comber board up and machine down for
fine pick.
By this method of "picking" or " wefting" this cloth a fuller and better
developed raised figure is produced than in other fabrics of the same class.
In order that my Invention may be fully understood and readily carried into
operation I append the annexed drawing or diagram.
The back yarn from the fast tension beam is represented by the dotted lines
A and B. C. C. are the fine presser picks that bind the cloth together, and

page_text: D, D, D, D are the coarse picks. The lines E and H represent the yarn from the
face beam. There are three picks in each "shed" of the face warp consisting of
one fine and two coarse picks.
Two fine picks and four coarse picks form a round.
The jacquard nachine changes every three picks to a card.
The picks are marked on the drawing numerally in their respective order.
In making this cloth in a one shuttle loom one count of "weft" or “picking '
only is required.
"
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said
Invention and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what
I claim is
The manufacture of the "Victoria" figured cloth with a plain yam ground and
a fine plain or coarse plain embossed figure with the method of picking in looms
with one or more shuttles, substantially in the manner herein set forth and shown
on the drawing or diagram.

Table Use as a Condiment for Seasoning Food.
I SYDNEY PITT of Sutton in the County of Surrey Gentleman (a communication
to me from abroad by John M. Hughes of Brooklyn, New York United States of
America) 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 :-
My improvement consists of a mixture of common table salt with a comparatively
saiall percentage of fine powdered phosphate of lime.
My mixture possesses all the palatable characteristics of salt as a condiment for
food. It also affords, in the phosphate of lime present in it, one of the chief
constituents of bones, and possesses the further useful quality of constantly
retaining its granular condition, so that it may always be readily shaken out of the
salt-bottles with perforated tops or covers, which are now in general use.
The powdered phosphate of lime may be mixed by any suitable mechanical
means with common salt, powdered, or in small crystals, or in granulated condition.
The proportion of phosphate of lime in the mixture may be varied according to
the climate in which the condiment is to be used, Thus, in a very dry climate one
per cent. by weight of the phosphate of lime will be sufficient to prevent the salt
from caking; but for general use I prefer to employ about three per cent. As,
however, the phosphate of lime is a valuable food constituent, it may, if desired,
be used in still larger proportion.
In preparing my mixture, I preferably use the "Calcis Phosphat " of the British
Pharmacopoeia.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said
invention and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what
I claim is :-
My novel condiment for seasoning food; being a mixture or compound of
common salt and phosphate of lime prepared substantially as described.
