PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
An Improved Revolving Stand for Carrying Dishes and the like for
Use in Ovens.
I DAVID LEWIS of 60 Richards Terrace Roath Cardiff Coal Inspector and
Foreman and I FRANCIS WALTER OATEN of 42 Eldon Road Riverside Canton
Cardiff Printer Stationer and Book Binder do hereby declare the nature of this
invention to be as follows:-
This invention relates to an improved revolving stand for the purpose of carrying
dishes and such like utensils, and is intended to be used in ovens." The object of
the invention is to be able to ascertain if viands contained within dishes are
thoroughly cooked, without having to take the said dishes out of the oven, and
this can be accomplished through our invention by simply revolving the upper
portion, and thus bringing to view that portion of the viands that are cooking.
In carrying out our invention, we provide a disc or frame, the centre of which is
bossed up and perforated in order to receive the projecting part of an upper
revolving frame, and this projection is arranged to turn easily within the perforated
lower disc before referred to. The upper revolving frame is provided with arms
to assist the easy turning of the same.
By this improvement it will readily be seen that any dish placed upon the
revolving stand can be brought to the light at the open oven door, and so the
viands to be cooked can be inspected all round without taking them out of
the oven.

COMPLETE SPECIFICATION.
An Improved Revolving Stand for Carrying Dishes and the like for
Use in Ovens.
We, DAVID LEWIS Coal Inspector and Foreman of 60, Richards Terrace, Roath,
Cardiff, and FRANCIS WALTER OATEN Printer, Stationer and Bookbinder, of
42, Eldon Road, Riverside, Cardiff, 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 an improved revolving stand for the purpose of carrying
dishes and such like utensils, and is intended to be used in ovens. The object of
the invention is to be able to ascertain if viands contained within dishes are
thoroughly cooked, without having to take the said dishes out of the oven, and this
can be accomplished through our invention by simply revolving the upper portion,
and thus bringing to view that portion of the viands that are cooking.
In carrying out our invention, we provide a disc or frame preferably supported
on short feet to allow for any inequality of the floor of the oven. The centre of
this disc is bossed up and perforated in order to receive the projecting part of an
upper revolving frame, and this projection is arranged to turn easily within the
perforated lower disc before referred to. The upper revolving frame is provided
with arins to assist the easy turning of the same, and should it be found necessary
small wheels or balls are arranged to take bearings upon the lower disc, and so
Price R71

the edges of the revolving frame.
By this improvement it will readily be seen that any dish placed upon the
revolving stand can be brought to the light at the open oven door, and so the
viands to be cooked can be inspected all round without taking them out of
-the oven.
In order that the invention may be more clearly understood, reference is had to
the accompanying sheet of drawings, in which Fig. 1 is a plan and Fig. 2 is a
section of our invention. A is the disc resting on the oven floor through the
medium of the short feet marked A', and B is the revolving upper frame turning
upon its centre C, which in this instance is at its lower portion transversed by a
screw thread and fitted with a nut. Instead of this nut it will be easy to rivet the
projection C. The arms D are provided upon the upper revolving stand B to
assist in turning same, and small wheels E are pivoted to projections F to assist in
carrying weights upon the outside of this circular revolving frame.
We do not limit ourselves to material or dimensions or to the precise placement
of the parts herein before referred to, nor to the character of materials that we may
use in carrying out our invention.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of our said inven-
tion, and in what manner the same is to be performed, we declare that what we
claim is,―
(1.) An improved revolving dish stand comprising a disc or stand A carrying a
revolving frame B, pivoted at C as hereinbefore set forth in this Specification, and
illustrated by the accompanying drawings.
(2.) In a revolving dish stand having a base A, a revolving upper frame B, the
bearing wheels E carried by small downward projections F, substantially as set
forth and illustrated in the accompanying drawings.
