PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improved Apparatus or Device for Beating Up Eggs, Mixing, and
like purposes.
We, JAMES DEWAR, Agent, and Archibald THOMSON DEWAR, Clerk,
both of 16 Stuart Road, Liverpool, in the County of Lancaster, do hereby
declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
This invention has mainly reference to apparatus or devices for beating eggs;
but it is also applicable for beating up or mixing other liquids or analogous
substances.
According to this invention there is employed in connection with a vessel, in
which the liquid portion of the egg or other liquid is contained or held, beating or
mixing arms or vanes, mounted upon a shaft extending through a cover closing the
said vessel; and upon the end of the shaft there is a wheel, pulley, or the like,
having on or in connection with it cords or the like, which are adapted to coil or
wrap up upon the said wheel or pulley, and by which the said shaft and beating or
mixing arms or vapes are rotated, first in one direction, and then in the other. To
effect this action, the cord or string has two ends, one of which is taken in each
band when operating the device, and these cord or string ends are so coiled or
wrapped upon the said wheel or pulley, that by working them to and fro, the
reversing rotary motion of the beaters or vanes is obtained.
:
The containing vessel, or said vessel and cover, are, in some cases, made of
earthenware or porcelain; whilst in others they are of metal but it is to be
understood that the invention is not restricted as to the kind of material of which
the apparatus or device, or parts thereof is or are made.

Improved Apparatus or Device for Beating Up Eggs, Mixing, and
like purposes.
We, JAMES DEWAR, Agent, and ARCHIBALD THOMSON DEWAR, Clerk,
both of 16 Stuart Road, Liverpool, in the County of Lancaster, 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 has mainly reference to apparatus or devices for beating eggs,
but it is also applicable for heating up or mixing other liquids or analogous
substances.
According to this invention there is employed in connection with a vessel, in
which the liquid portion of the egg or other liquid is contained or held, beating or
mixing arms or vanes, mounted upon a shaft extending through a cover closing the
0

having on or in connection with it cords or the like, which are adapted to coil or
wrap up upon the said wheel or pulley, and by which the said shaft and beating or
mixture arms or vanes are rotated, first in one direction, and then in the other.
To effect this action, the cord or string has two ends, one of which is taken in each
hand or attached to a bow when operating the device, and these cord or string
ends are so coiled or wrapped upon the said wheel or pulley, that by working
them to and fro, the reversing rotary motion of the beaters or vanes is obtained.
The drawings accompanying this Specification illustrate an apparatus according
to our invention, Figure 1 being a sectional elevation; Figure 2 a plan; and
Figures 3 and 4 details of the apparatus.
With reference to the drawings, a designates the vessel in which the liquid to be
beaten or mixed is placed, c the mixing arms or vanes mounted on the shaft d, and
e denotes the cover of the vessel a. The shaft d works in a footstep g in the base
of the vessel a, extends through the cover e, and is provided with a wheel or
pulley having in connection with it and coiled round it, a cord i fixed to a bow k,
by the movement of which the cord i causes the pulley h, shaft d, and mixing
'vanes c to rotate first in one direction, and then in the other; 'the vanes c beating
or mixing the liquid or analogous substance in the vessel a.
To keep the cover e secure on the vessel a, it is provided with bayonet joint
parts which connect with the projections m on the vessel a, and hold the cover e
to the vessel.
The containing vessel, or said vessel and cover, are, in some cases, made of
earthenware or porcelain; whilst in others they are of metal but it is to be
understood that the invention is not restricted as to the kind of material of which
the apparatus or device, or parts thereof is or are made.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of this inven
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed, we declare that what
we claim is :-
The improved egg beater herein described, namely, an apparatus or device
comprising a vessel in which the substance is operated upon; a beater or beaters
therein having a vertical spindle; a lid or cover to said vessel through which said
spindle passes; and a cord held by a bow or the like passing over the spindle or a
wheel thereon; operating substantially as herein set forth.
