We EDWARD COPE of Phoenix Works Openshaw Manchester in the County of
Lancaster, Nut and Tube Manufacturer, and ALFRED HOLLINGS of the same place
Manager of Works do hereby declare the nature of our said invention for
IMPROVEMENTS IN THE MANUFACTURE OF WHEEL AND PULLEY BOSSES, AXLE
BOXES, SPINNING RINGS, AND OTHER LIKE HOLLOW ARTICLES, to be as follows:-
The object of our invention is to produce repitition hollow articles of uniformly
good outline and quality at largely reduced cost.
For this purpose we first cast a hollow ingot of steel or other metal, then pickle
or clean it and afterwards elongate by rolling and hammering or either to the
desired section. From the elongated tube like length sections are cut and these
are finished in a lathe rolled in free ended rolls or otherwise as bosses, boxes,
spinning rings couplings or other desired articles.
When it is essential that the metal should be perfectly homogeneous in character
throughout the article as is specially the case with spinning rings I subject the cut
off lengths to pressure in a die say under a falling weight or in a hydraulic press.
Essential features in our method of manufacture are (1) Casting. (2) Pickling.
(3) Elongating (4) Cutting off (5) Compacting and (6) finishing.

Improvements in the Manufacture of Wheel and Pulley Bosses,
|| Axle Boxes, Spinning Rings, and other like Hollow Articles.
We EDWARD COPE of Phoenix Works, Openshaw Manchester in the county of
Lancaster Nut and Tubo Manufacturer and ALFRED HOLLINGS of the same place,
Manager of Works do hereby declare the nature of the said invention for
IMPROVEMENTS IN THE MANUFACTURE OF WHEEL AND PULLEY BOSSES, AXLE
BOXES, SPINNING RINGS, AND OTHER LIKE HOLLOW ARTICLES and in what manner
the same is to be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and by
the following statement :-
-
The object of our invention is to produce repitition hollow articles of uniformly
good outline and quality at largely reduced cost. For this purpose we first cast a

page_text: hollow ingot of steel then pickle or clean it by preference and afterwards elongate
by rolling and hammering or either to the desired section. From the elongated
tube like length sections are cut and these are finished in a lathe, rolled in free
ended rolls or otherwise as bosses, boxes, spinning rings, couplings or other desired
articles.
When it is essential that the metal should be perfectly homogeneous in character
throughout the article as is specially the case with spinning rings or when it is
desired that one portion of the metal tube like length should have increased
diameter internally externally or both as for instance in making axle boxes rigging
screws and like articles we subject the cut off lengths to pressure in a die or dies
say under a falling weight or in a hydraulic press. When subjecting the metal to
pressure as above set forth we make use in some cases of a mandrel or mandrels to
regulate the diameter internally.
Essential features in our method of manufacture are (1) casting (2) pickling or
cleaning (3) elongating (4) cutting off (5) compacting and (6) finishing.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of our said
invention and in what manner the same is to be performed we declare that what
we claim is
First. The manufacture of wheel and pulley bosses, axle boxes spinning rings,
and other light hollow articles by casting a hollow ingot. of steel, elongating the
same by rolling and hammering or either, cutting off sections and finishing in a
lathe, free ended rolls or otherwise as set forth.
Second. The manufacture of wheel and pulley bosses, axle boxes, spinning rings
and other light hollow articles by casting a hollow ingot of steel, pickling or
cleaning, elongating, cutting off sections and finishing substantially as set forth.
Third. The manufacture of wheel and pulley bosses, axle boxes spinning rings,
and other light hollow articles by casting, elongating cutting off, pressing and
finishing substantially as set forth.
Fourth. The manufacture of wheel and pulley bosses, axle boxes spinning rings,
and other light hollow articles by casting cleaning elongating, cutting off, pressing,
and finishing substantially as set forth.
