Syrup, and the like.
I, SAMUEL ARNAUD of 33 Turret Grove Clapham in the County of Surrey
Professional Cook do hereby declare the nature of my invention for AN IMPROVED
PUREE & FORCEMEAT PASSER to be as follows:-
It is for passing Purée forcemeat, Fruit Syrup Jams &c.
The cylinder revolves in an opposite direction to the rollers & by means of a
fixed scraper clear's the material from the bottom as it revolves. Strainers are
interchangeble according to material required to be passed.
.
Pressure for ordinary purposes is automatic any harder material such as force-
meat Bread crumbs &c is provided for by a screw & wheel.

I SAMUEL ARNAUD of 33 Turret-Grove Clapham in the County of Surrey
Professional Cook 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 :-
It is for passing Purée, forcemeat, fruit, syrups, jams &c through a sieve at the
bottom of the cylinder into which they are placed.
In order that iny said invention may be more fully understood' I will proceed to
describe the drawings hereunto. annexed.

Fig. 1 is a Front Elevation of the machine shewing the position for working it,
the material is put in at the top and is passed through the sieve at the bottom by
revolving the wlieels at the side.
f. .
Fig. 2 is a Side Elevation shewing the position of the rollers in the cylinder.
Fig. 3 is a section taken through the rollers, spindle and cylinder and shews the
manner in which the sieve is attached to the cylinder by means of a screw ring.
Fig. 4. is the scraper fitting under the Bieve to prevent the matter from adhering
as it is passed.
Fig. 5 is a Plan of the sieve at the bottom of the cylinder.
܀
Fig. 6 is a Plan of the.rollers and a small scraper fixed above, for the purpose of
clearing the sides of the cylinder.
Fig. 7 is an end view of the same.
The letters of reference used in the following discription are in exact accordance
with those shewn on the drawing.
The machine can be worked by hand or motive power by turning the large
wheel a revolving the smaller wheel b, the axle of which passes through the frame
of the machine, and by means of wheel c at the end, gears with a ring of teeth on
the cylinder d which it revolves.
The cylinder d is enclosed by an iron bande attached to the frame and fitted
with small wheels for the purpose of preventing the occurrence of friction and that
the cylinder d may revolve more easily.
A spindle is placed inside the cylinder d, the top part fitting into a boss g, the
lower part having projecting arms upon which two loose rollers h are placed and
which work in consequence of the revolution of the cylinder d, and thus the matter
is passed through the sieve i at the bottom. The spindle f is kept stationary by
means of a feather fitting into a groove in the boss g, but is nevertheless moveable
in a vertical direction so that the rollers i may be taken out to clean the
cylinder d.
Pressure is provided by means of a screw j fitted over the top of the spindle f
upon which it is exerted; it can be turned on one side to allow of the spindle f
being raised.
A small scraper is attached to the spindle f and touching the inside of the
cylinder d so that all matter is dislodged by the revolution.

page_text: A large scraper is fixed underneath the cylinder d and touching the under
surface of the sieve i to prevent any matter adhering to it. This scraper works
upon a spring mand may if it is convenient be pushed down by the rod n, to
which it is attached, and put on one side. The sieve i is fastened by screw ring o.
Since the provisional specification was filed a slight modification in the con-
struction of the machine has been made for the purpose of simplifying it and
reducing the cost-the simplification is merely, that as it is unnecessary that the
spindle should rotate, the required motion being sufficiently fast without, the
wheels and appliances for effecting that purpose are now removed.
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 combination in construction of a Purée passer-substantially as shewn and
described.
