Improvements in Cruet Frames, and Means of Attaching Bells
to same.
JOHN WILLIAM OLIVER of 28 Northumberland Road City of Sheffield
Silversmith and HORACE JAMES of 11 Burcott Road Meersbrook in the County
of Derby Manufacturer do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as
follows:-
It relates to the manner in which we construct cruet frames so as to admit of
one or more bell gong being attachel to them in a more compact easy, and
We make
economical way than heretofore which we do in the following manner.
a cruet frame from metal or any suitable material in any shape or design with or
without a flat bottom, each frame being so shape or fashioned as to admit of one
or more bottles similar to those in ordinary use. To the lower part of the frame or
the flat bottom as the case may be we fix in any convenient manner one or more
upright standards the top part of which is formed into the handle and the bottom
portion either terminating at or passing through the collet or rings. The standard
or standards refered to are shaped or fashioned into a circular form or ring between
the handle and the collet or rings, thus allowing a sufficient and suitable space
within each ring to admit of one or more bell gongs of suitable diameter being
fixed therein, each bell gong being clear of the metal forming the ring so that
the sound may not be interfered with which otherwise would be the case.
bell gongs are similar to those in ordinary use, and we prefer in most instances to
use two bell gings mount! a suitable iron frame connected with cogwheels,
having also a central spindle which extends some distance on each side of the gongs
which when revolved from either side with the thumb and Enger, engages the cog-
wheels which in turn engages a hammer or striker within the said gongs. From
the inner frame extends a stud projecting below the gongs by which we attach the
latter to the inside of the circular space or ring formed in the upright standards
already refered to in any convenient way. On each end of the central spindle we
fix a knob or other suitable contrivance so that it may be more easily revolved
with the thumb and finger for the purpose of oumling the bell gongs when fixed
into position.

JOHN WILLIAM OLIVER Silversmith of 28, Northumberland Road and
HORACE JAMES Ironmonger of 53, Burcot Road both of the City of Sheffield
do hereby declare the nature of this invention and in what manuer the same is to
be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the following
statement :-
It relates to the manner in which we construct cruet frames so as to admit of one

page_text: or more bell gongs being attached to them in a more compact, easy and economical
way than heretofore which we do in the following manner. We make a cruet
frame from metal or any suitable material in any shape or design with or without
a flat bottom each frame being so shaped or fashioned as to admit of one or more
bottles similar to those in ordinary use. To the lower part of the frame or the
flat bottom as the case may be we fix in any convenient manner one or more
upright standards the top part of which is formed into the handle and the bottom
portion either terminating at or passing through the (collet or rings). The
standard or standards referred to are shaped or fashioned into a circular form or
ring between the handle and the collet or rings thus allowing a sufficient & suitable
space within each ring to admit of one or more bell gongs of suitable diameter
being fixed therein each bell gong being clear of the metal forming the ring so
that the sound may not be interfered with which otherwise would be the case.
The bell gongs are similar to those in ordinary use and we prefer in most instances
to use two bell gongs mounted upon a suitable iron fraine conureted with cog
wheels having a central spindle which extends some distance on each side of the
gongs which when revolved from either side with the thumb & finger engages the
cog wheel which in turn engages a hammer or striker within the said gangs,
From the inner frame extends a stud projecting below the gongs by which we
attach the latter in the inside of the circular space or ring formed in the upright
standards already referred to in any convenient way. Upon each end of the
central spindle we fix a knob or other suitable contrivances that it may be more
easily revolved with the thumb & finger for the purpose of somading the bell gongs
when fixed in position.
In order to explain it more fully we hereby enclose drawings wherein
A. represents the standards.
B. The circular ring to admit bell gongs.
C. The (collet or rings).
D. The handle.
E. The bell gongs.
F. The knob or button.
G. The projecting stud.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of our inven
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed we declare that what we
claim is as follows.
(1.) Cruet frames constructed with one or more upright standands each standard
being shaped or fashioned into the form of a circular ring between the handle and
collet or rings for the particular purpose as described herein and set forth in the
drawings.
(2.) The use of one or more bell gongs having a projecting stud extending
from the frame the same being inserted and fixed inside a metal ring shaped or
fashioned in the standard or standards of cruet frames between the handle and collet
or rings as described herein and set forth in the drawings.
