I HENRY THWAITES WRIGLEY of 23 Richardson Street, Bishopthorpe Road in
the City of York Manager do hereby declare the nature of my said invention for
IMPROVEMENTS IN MACHINERY FOR THE MANUFACTURE OF LOZENGES MEDALS
MAY
AND OTHER SIMILAR ARTICLES OF CONFECTIONERY WHICH IMPROVEMENTS
ALSO BE APPLIED TO MACHINERY FOR THE MANUFACTURE OF BISCUITS AND OTHER
ARTICLES to be as follows:-
The making and use of an improved metallic bar or frame with slot groove or
grooves or adjustable side or sides so made with sliding bars cramps screws or
other articles so as to allow for the fixing in any required position or positions
in such bar or frame of loose type blocks figures or other similar material or
combinations of such material for the purpose of stamping printing or impressing
lozenges medals biscuits or other articles with any letter word motto or device
that may be required.

I HENRY THWAITES WRIGLEY of 23 Richardson Street Bishopthorpe Road of
the City of York Manager do hereby declare the nature of my invention for
IMPROVEMENTS IN MACHINERY FOR THE MANUFACTURE OF LOZENGES MEDALS
AND OTHER SIMILAR ARTICLES OF CONFECTIONERY WHICH IMPROVEMENTS MAY
ALSO BE APPLIED TO MACHINERY FOR THE MANUFACTURE OF BISCUITS AND OTHER
ARTICLES and in what manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly
described and ascertained in and by the following statement :-
Whereas hitherto the printing and stamping of lozenges medals biscuits and
other similar articles made from sugar paste dough or other soft plastic material
has been confined and restricted to the use of hand punches or type secured in
band frames or sets or fixed standard steel iron or brass dies soldered or otherwise
secured to horizontal bars fixed in sliding cramps or otherwise placed in machines
driven by hand or steam power my invention has for its object the making and
use of an improved steel iron or brass bar or frame with slot groove or grooves
running down the centre with cross grooves from side to side for the purpose of
placing in such groove or grooves metallic or other type consisting of letters words
figures mottoes blocks and other articles either separate or combined for the
purpose of stamping or impressing lozenges medals biscuits or other similar articles
with letters mottoes or other devices or inscriptions.
I place the type letters figures mottoes or other devices in the slot grooves fixing
the same securely therein with iron wood or other packing pieces the whole being
placed in position so as to form impressions centrally or in any other given manner
as may be required upon the lozenges medals biscuits or other similar articles
which require to be so marked.
In order further to secure such type letters figures mottoes or other devices in
their respectivo positions I sometimes give additional firmness thereto by means
of set screws and cramps placed at suitable distances apart upon the bar and made
adjustable so as to be fixed in any position as may be required.
When the Lozenges medals biscuits or other similar articles are required to be
marked with very minute details I use small sliding frames or holders for securing
the type letters figures mottoes or other devices. These sliding frames or holders
I make to work longitudinally and latitudinally in the slot groove or grooves of
the metallic bar or frame. This latter way enables me to stamp the requisite word
or device in any position with great clearness regularity and evenness.
The metallic bar or frame may be either made in one piece or in a multiplicity
of pieces bolted or otherwise secured together as may be most conveniently adapted
for the machine in which it has to be placed.

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 making and use of an improved metallic bar or frame made in one piece or
with adjustable side or sides with slot groove or grooves with sliding bars cramps
screws or other articles to allow for the fixing in any required position or positions
in such bar or frame of type blocks figures or other similar material or combinations
of such material either separately or in suitable frames or holders for the purpose of
stamping printing or impressing lozenges medals biscuits or other articles with any
letter motto or device that may be required.
