Complete Accepted, 31st May, 1887.
I, LILIAS PHILLOTT, of 27 Perham Road, West Kensington, in the County of
Middlesex, do hereby declare the nature of my said invention to be as follows:-
The object of my invention is to manufacture a convenient form of grinding
apparatus, for domestic use.
My invention consists of a cylindrical case, mounted on suitable iron feet or
standards, the lower ends of which are (preferably) screwed, hinged, or otherwise
attached to some fixture, such as a dresser. The bottom of the case is perforated and
roughened some or all of the perforations having burred edges as in nutmeg graters,
and analogous articles. The upper end of the cylindrical case is open, and a vertical
axle or pin is fixed to the centre of the bottom, from which it rises and forms a
working centre.
In this case I place an inner cylinder, which is either made solid or hollow, and, if
made hollow, is loaded to give it sufficient weight. The bottom of this cylinder is also
roughened, and a central hole is formed therein to receive the axle or central pin fixed
in the outer cylinder; upon this pin, as a centre, the inner cylinder is caused to
rotate.
To the top of the inner cylinder, near the periphery, I fix a vertical handle; and, by
means of this handle, the inner cylinder is caused to rotate.
The material to be ground is placed in the outer cylinder, and under the inner
cylinder, and is ground between the two surfaces; the ground material falling
through the perforations in the bottom of the outer cylinder.
The apparatus is usually formed of tin and iron but any other suitable material may
be used in its construction.

I, LILIAS PHILLOTT of 27 Perham Road, West Kensington, in the County of
Middlesex, 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 my invention is to manufacture a convenient form of grinding
apparatus for domestic use.
And in order that my said invention may be particularly described and ascertained,
reference is hereby made to the accompanying drawings, in which similar letters of
reference indicate corresponding parts.
Fig. 1 is a sectional elevation, Fig. 2 a plan view, and Fig. 3 is a horizontal section,
on the line a b of Fig. 1.
The invention consists of an outer cylindrical case c, mounted on suitable iron feet
or standards d d, the lower ends of which may be attached to some fixture, such as a
dresser by means of screws passed through the holes d¹ d'; or hinges or other means
may be used for attaching the same. e is the bottom of the outer case, perforated
with holes, some or all of the perforations having burred edges, as shown in Fig. 1
similar to nutmeg graters and analogous articles. The upper end of the cylindrical
case c is open, and a vertical tube or other axle fis fixed to the bottom, centrally,
which forms a working centre. In this outer case I place the inner cylinder g, which
may be made either solid or hollow, and, if made hollow, it is loaded with any suitable
material to impart weight thereto. The bottom of the inner cylinder is also
roughened by means of similar perforations to those in the bottom of the outer cylinder.
The inner cylinder g is provided with a central tube to receive the axle f of the outer
cylinder. Upon this axle f, as a centre, the inner cylinder is caused to rotate, by
means of the handle k.
The inner cylinder g may be lifted out of the outer cylinder, in order to place the
material to be ground in the latter. As the material is reduced to the requisite
degree of fineness, it falls through the perforations in e, into any article placed below
to receive the same.
The apparatus is usually formed of tin and iron, but any other suitable materials
may be used in its construction.
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 and use of grinding apparatus consisting of an outer case or
cylinder c, supported as aforesaid, the bottom e being perforated; an inner case or
cylinder g of suitable weight, centred on the axle f, having a roughened bottom plate h,
and operated by the handle k; together constituting my invention of an improved
domestic grinding apparatus, substantially as hereinbefore described and shewn on the
drawings.
