An Improved Food Product or Sweetmeat.
I, MARIA BENNO VON DONAT of No. 12, Albrechtstrasse, Berlin in the
Kingdom of Prussia and Empire of Germany, Manufacturer, 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 :-
My invention relates to a new and useful compound to be used as an alimentary
substance and also as a sweetmeat. My composition consists of those parts of the
blood of animals, mammalia, or birds, which remain when the red corpuscles, and
in some cases also the fibrine, have been removed. The substance thus obtained
is subjected to evaporation with a sterilised vacuum at a temperature not
exceeding 60° Centigrade, and the dry matter which results is then pulverised and
mixed in suitable proportions with powdered cocoa, coffee, coffee substitutes, or
desiccated soup with or without an addition of sugar or saccharine ingredients or
flour.
In carrying out the invention the blood is separated, in the usual manner, into
the red solid substance, and the albuminous fluid. The latter is then concentrated,
after clearing, by evaporation in vacuo, and finally dried and powdered.
Of this powder I add to the cocoa or other substance from
by weight, according to the quality to be obtained.
up to 35 per cent.
The compound thus obtained is of great economical value as a dietetical aliment
and also as a sweetmeat.
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 :-
An improved compound to be used as an aliment and also as a sweetmeat,
consisting of the dried and pulverised substance obtained in the manner detailed
from the blood of animals, mixed with powdered cocoa, coffee, coffee substitutes or
desiccated soup substantially as hereinbefore described.

page_text: Smokeless Night Light Lamp Burner.
JOHN JAMES SPEAR 70 Crasswell Street Landport Portsmouth Hants Glass
Merchant do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
The smokeless night light burner is made of inch barrel or tube with one
thirty second part of an inch inner flange which perfectly stops the wick from
rising too high while burning as is the case with those now in use without the
flange.
The burner can also be made separate to slip over lamp burners now in use and
auswer the same.

Smokeless Night Light Lamp Burner.
JOHN JAMES SPEAR Glass Merchant 70 Crasswell Street Landport Portsmouth
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:—
The burner is simply the ordinary tube and near the top will be a small hole
through which the wick can be raised with a pin should it get fixed as is very often
the case with these small lamps when the cogwheels have cut into the wick.
Over this ordinary tube with small hole will slip or screw the burner proper with
an inner flange which will regulate the flame & prevent the wick from rising too
high.
This mode applies to petroleum oi!.
But with spirit oil the ordinary tube would be flanged as well as the burner
proper. By which means the flame is made to retain a safe height and risk of an
explosion nill. as the base of the tube is barely warm.

page_text: In describing Fig. 1 I would say, A is the burner, B is the flange to burner A,
C is flanged tube, over which burner A with flange B slips.
Fig. 2. D is the burner with flauge E, which slips over tube G with hole F in
the same manner as in Fig. 1.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I
claim is
"The flange of burner."
1st. That by the means of the flange smoke is entirely removed.
2nd. That by the said flange the wick cannot conduct the flame to the vessel
which contains the oil.
3rd. That by it spirit oil can be used with safety & that the flanges keep the
flame at regular height.

the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
My invention relates to improvements in the form of chair, made by the process
described in my previous Patent No. 19656 of 1894.
According to these improvements, I make the part of the blank which is cut or
slit from the lower part or base to make the jaws of such a form; that the jaws
instead of being a continuous flat flap are formed of two prongs-or I might describe
each jaw as being divided by an intervening space.
This improved construction has the following among other advantages.
(1st.) It reduces weight of jaws still giving a wide grip on key & rail.
(2nd.) On account of elasticity of jaws (or prongs) the key has less tendancy to
work out.

New or Improved Driving Gear for Cycles.
I, LEOPOLD STANGE, of Bartenstein, East Prussia, in the Empire of Germany,
Manufacturer, 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 driving-gear for cycles, intended to avoid
the disadvantages of chain gearings.
The improved gearing is shown in the annexed drawing, in which Fig. 1 is an
elevation and Fig. 2 a sectional plan.
The interiorly toothed wheel B, keyed on the treadle-crank axle A gears with the
pinion D, keyed on the crank-shaft C and thus transmits the movement of the
treadle-crank axle A, essentially multiplied in speed, to the crank E on the shaft C,
which crank E transmits its revolutions to the rear wheel I by means of the connect-
ing rod F and the crank H on the driving axle G. As will be seen in Fig. 2 the
axles A, C and G run in respective ball-bearings A¹, C' and G' and also the pins E2
and H2 of the cranks E and H are arranged in ball-bearings, whereby the friction
is reduced to a minimum. The gearing B and D) is shown open in the drawing, but
in practice it is preferably surrounded by a closed sheet-metal oil-proof case so that
it may work in oil and soiling of the gearing by dust and street mud is avoided.
This improved transmission by the connecting-rod and cranks may also be
executed at both sides of the frame K instead of on one side only. It is considerably
more even and safer since stretch, inseparable from chain gearing, is obviated.
The hollow connecting rod F involves a reduction of weight and the elegance of
the machine is increased since this rod can be nickelled whereas the nickel plating
of a chain disturbs its uniform character.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of the said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what
claim is :-
An improved driving-gear for cycles comprising in combination the treadle crank
axle A, interiorly toothed wheel B thereon, pinion D engaging therewith, crank E,
shaft C connecting said pinion D and crank E, crank H on the rotary driving wheel
axle and connecting rod F substantially as set forth.

ARTHUR BARTON KENT, of 11, Great Marlborough Street, London, W.,
Brush Manufacturer, 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 :-
My invention is intended to obviate the difficulty which exists in removing or
lifting flower or plant pots from within the ornamental jars or pots in which they
are commonly placed for decorative and other purposes, and is constructed as
follows:-I bend a piece of wire, cane, or other suitable material into a circular
form, and of suitable size to fit round an ordinary flower or plant pot immediately
beneath the rim; the ends of the circular wire or other material being attached
together by means of a hook and eye, or by two hooks, or one end may be provided
with an eye through which the other end may be passed and then bent as required,
if preferred I may make the rings of various sizes and permanently fix the two
ends together. I take two other pieces of wire or other suitable material and
loosely attach them to the ring, preferably at points opposite to each other, these
latter pieces of wire or other material, having a hook or loop forming a handle at
the ends which are unattached to the circular portion, and being of such a length
that they may be easily taken hold of when the flower or plant pot is within the
ornamental jar or receiver; if preferred, in place of these latter wires I may
attach the two ends of pieces of wire or other material, bent in a semi-circular
form, to the ring of wire or other material, thus providing an alternative method to
that before specified. If required I may attach hooks or clips to the circle of wire
or other material, for the purpose of securing the contrivance to the edge or rim of
the flower or plant pot. When the contrivance is attached to the flower or plant
pot and the latter is placed within an ornamental jar or receiver, all that is
necessary is, to take care that the hooks or loops (i.e. the handles) shall extend
upwards.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-
tion, and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I
claim is :-
A flower or plant pot lifter, made of wire or other material, consisting of a
circular portion to go round the pot, and having hooks, loops, or handles attached
thereto, and which may be affixed to the pot when required, as substantially
described in the foregoing Specification.

Improvements in Bottles and the like.
I, ERNST MÜLLER (commonly termed Ernst Müller Justus Son) Manufacturer
of Glass Ware of Ernstthal near Lauscha, Saxe-Meiningen in the Empire of
Germany 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 the closing of bottles and the like in such a way that
they cannot be opened without breaking the bottle neck so that unauthorized.
opening of the bottle for the purpose of emptying or refilling it is prevented.
In the annexed drawing
Fig. 1 shows a bottle neck closed in this manner,
Fig. 2 another form of the bottle neck and
Fig. 3 shows how to open the bottle.
The neck of the bottle has near the mouth a prominent interior flange A which,
may run all round the neck or only partly so.
The cork B is pressed into the neck of the bottle by a bottling machine being
previously so pressed together that it will pass the inner diameter of the flange A,
whereupon it expands again so that it fills and completely closes the neck of the
bottle.
If it is tried to remove the cork with a cork-screw the upper flat end of the cork.
will press against the under cut or flat face of the flange A and a removal of the
cork would be impossible. The ring A has in section the form of a hook giving
increased resistance to the cork. To remove the cork or stopper the neck of the
bottle must be cut off beneath the flange A. This is effected in the manner shown.
in Fig. 3 by putting on the neck of the bottle the disc C which is turned hollow
below and carries a hook c the point of which is of chilled steel or has a diamond
inserted. This disc C is pressed by the hand with its hook against the inner
surface of the bottle neck and turned round so that the point c cuts the neck.
To render this instrument superfluous the ring A as shown in Fig. 2 at A¹ can.
be made so thin that it may be broken by taking off the cork with a cork screw.
This construction may also be applied for bottles of all kinds also for mustard.
and preserve jars for the latter purpose it would be suitable to place under the.
stopper B an interior flange serving for assuring a tight closing of the jar.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of this said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what I
claim is :-
A bottle or jar having in the neck over the cork or stopper a flange or projection
running all round or only partly so as and for the purpose set forth.

Improvements in or relating to the Filtration of Liquids.
I, SAMUEL COURTNEY of 39 Castlereagh Street, Belfast, Ireland, Analytical
Chemist, do hereby declare the nature of the said 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 the filtration of liquids, and its object is to provide a
rapid, efficient durable and economical filtering medium.
After repeated experiments with a great number of materials in a granular or
pulverulent state I have discovered that disintegrated peat as a filtering medium
has great advantages.
In carrying out my invention I take peat and disintegrate it so as to reduce it to
a granular or pulverulent state, or I may take naturally pulverulent peat. I
employ a layer of this disintegrated or pulverulent peat as a filtering medium
supported by a permeable bed or permeable surfaces in the manner in which filtering
media are usually employed, that is to say I cause the impure liquid to percolate
through a layer of peat kept in position by a permeable bed or permeable surfaces ;
the filtration may take place in any direction.
For many purposes dried peat roughly broken up and disintegrated will be
found suitable without passing the same through a sieve; but when desired to filter
engine condenser water containing grease and oil it is better to use peat more finely
divided.
The depth of the disintegrated or pulverulent peat should be from one inch to
six inches, according to the liquid to be treated.
The top and middle layers of peat are best suited for the purpose of my invention;
but as peat varies in different localities the bottom layer in certain places may be
also found suitable.
The supporting bed on which the disintegrated or pulverulent peat is laid may
be a wire web, or a perforated plate or grid, or may consist of sand, charcoal or
other suitable material.
The advantages obtained by the use of peat as a filtering medium are as
follows: The action is far more rapid and there is freedom from clogging; there
is also greatly increased durability consequent upon the large absorbing capacity of
the peat. In addition to these advantages the size of the filter can be considerably
diminished for a specified amount of work.
My invention is particularly applicable for the separation of oil and grease from
water, and can therefore be employed with great advantage for the purification of
engine condenser water and the like; it is also particularly applicable for the
purification of sewage.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what I
claim is :-
:-
The use in the filtration of liquids of a layer of disintegrated or pulverulent peat,
substantially as hereinbefore described.

Improved Method and Means of Connecting Electrical Accumulator
Plates with their Conductors.
I, GEORG HIRSCHMANN of 14-15 Johannisstrasse, Berlin, N, in the Empire-
of Germany, Manufacturer, 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:-
In accumulators the terminals provided on the plates (and on the positive plates:
in particular) and which projects from the accumulator vessel and form the place
of attachment for the conducting wires is according to my present invention.
(illustrated by way of example in the "local view in the drawings hereunto
annexed) made in the form of a trough or cup B (of brass lead copper or any
suitable conducting material) and has in the middle of said trough or cup B a..
prominence or projection E which may project up beyond the edge of the trough
or cup B and is connected to the copper wire or other conductor K-by screwing in,.
solder, etc. The cavity R thus formed between the edge of the trough B and the
core or projection E is filled with oil or other fatty substance or fluid, semi-fluid,
viscid, or other suitable material which acts to prevent the creeping up of the acid.
used for charging the accumulator and thus to protect the attachment of the copper-
conductor from oxidation.
This improved arrangement allows of the employment of copper connections and
terminals and of thus dispensing with the use of lead connections and terminals.
which latter are disadvantageous for instance they are inconvenient in many cases..
and render the fitting of such connections difficult.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-..
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what I.
claim is :-
1. The improved method of connecting accumulator plates with their conductors..
or leads substantially in the manner and for the purposes herein before described.
2. Connecting the end of the plate A of an accumulator to its conductor by
making the former trough shaped or cup shaped as at B so that this trough or cup..
is adapted to be filled or partly filled with oil or other suitable fluid or semi-fluid
or viscid material and having an attachment or projection such as E projecting-
from the inside of the said trough or cup and to which is connected the copper
conductor this projection E being thus surrounded by the oil etc. in said trough B
for the purpose of protecting same from the injurious action of the acid of the.
accumulator substantially in the manner hereinbefore described.
3. The improved means of connecting the plates of an accumulator to the-
conductor arranged constructed combined and acting substantially in the manner

Improvements in Air-blast Gas Burners.
We, THOMAS FLETCHER of Thynne Street Warrington in the County of
Lancaster, Manufacturer of Gas Apparatus, WILLIAM RUSSELL of the Scotia
Foundry Pendleton in the County of Lancaster, Iron-founder, and FLETCHER
RUSSELL & Co. LIMITED of Thynne Street Warrington in the County of
Lancaster, Manufacturers of Gas Apparatus, 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 air-blast gas burners which may be employed in
furnaces forges and the like and for general laboratory and shop use without risk
of damage, and with high or low pressure blast.
The burner constructed according to these improvements consists of a central
air tube connected at the back to any suitable source of air supply under pressure,..
such as a bellows, fan, or blower, and an annular chamber surrounding the air tube-
and in communication with a supply of gas.. In the annular chamber there is an :
internal ring or annular projection concentric with the air. tube, and at the open-
end the chamber terminates with a choking nozzle. The ring and nozzle ensure
an equal distribution of the gas around the air jet, and the burner thus constructed:
produces a high temperature flame well diffused, which has no cutting action at-
any point, such as occurs with the ordinary form of blow-pipe, and which may be -
worked with a low pressure of air. Such a flame is particularly adapted for use
with gas forges, furnaces for crucibles and muffles, and for annealing, hardening:
and tempering chambers.
We will more particularly describe our said invention with reference to the
accompanying drawing which represents a longitudinal section through the burner.
In this drawing, A is the air jet which may be connected at a with any source
of high or low pressure air. C is the gas chamber, concentric with A, and having:
an annular form, in which is cast or produced the ring or annular projection R..
Beyond the ring R the chamber terminates in the choking nozzle N, concentric.
with the end of the air jet.
The gas chamber may be connected with the gas supply through a nozzle such
as G.
The ring R in the gas chamber is of importance, as its presence enables the-
burner to be made much shorter than it otherwise could be made, and thus.
minimises the risk of injury.
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 :-
An air-blast gas burner, constructed substantially as hereinbefore described and.
as illustrated by the accompanying drawing.

Improvements in Apparatus for Making Coffee.
Year: 1895

page_text: Date of Application, 28th Mar., 1895-Accepted, 4th May, 1895
COMPLETE SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in Apparatus for Making Coffee.
I, EUGEN WILDA of 33 Colonnenstrasse, Schöneberg, near Berlin, in the
German Empire, Secretary of Police, 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 apparatus for preparing infusions of coffee and its
object is to obtain a beverage which is free from oil, skins, or grounds.
The apparatus employed consists essentially of two vessels connected together
by a small tube or pipe and arranged one above another. The lower vessel, which
contains the coffee, has a conical roof or lid into which the communicating pipe
opens. The upper vessel contains the boiling water.
In order that my invention may be more readily understood I have hereto
appended a sheet of drawings reference to which is made hereinafter.
Figure 1 illustrates a vertical section of the complete apparatus.
Figure 2 shews a plan of the perforated disc through which the infusion
escapes.
Figure 3 is a representation of the straining disc or device.
The vessel B has placed within it the required quantity or charge of coffee the
whole apparatus being inverted during the filling, the tube C being closed by a
suitable valve F to prevent any of the coffee passing along the communicating
tube C into the water vessel A. This valve may be of any ordinary construction
and may be arranged to close itself upon inversion of the apparatus or it may be
operated by hand. The mouth of the vessel B is then closed by the straining
disc G of fustian or other cloth or material and the perforated metallic disc D both
being held in place against the ring 6 by spring or other suitable pressure. The
apparatus is then restored to its proper position and the vessel B is placed within
the mouth of the jug or other receptacle for the infusion, being held in place by
the flange h.
The upper vessel A is filled with boiling water which passes down through the
tube C into the lower vessel B where it mixes with the coffee and separates
the oil and skin and lighter impurities which ascend through the tube C into the
water vessel A. These impurities are guided to the tube C by the conical
roof of the vessel B and are assisted upwards by the escaping bubbles of air from
the coffee. As the water falls in the vessel A the impurities are deposited upon
the walls and bottom. The infusion escapes through the straining disc G and the
perforated lid D into the provided receptacle.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I
claim is :-
An apparatus for preparing an infusion of coffee constructed arranged and
operating substantially as hereinbefore described and as illustrated by the
accompanying drawings.

I, HEINRICH FRIEDRICH FITTE of No. 41 Grossbeerenstrasse Berlin S. W. in
the Empire of Germany, Engineer, 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 :-
In ordinary hand mills more especially for grinding coffee beans or substitutes
therefor the grinding mechanism is directly under the filling hopper and mounted
on a wooden or metal box which forms or contains a holder for the ground product
and is intended to be fixed for use. The present invention is intended to provide a
mill which may be conveniently held in the one hand while the grinding mechanism
is operated by the other hand and which therefore need not be fixed. The improved
mill is entirely of metal, of great durability and cheapness, comfortable to handle
and of small size though of ample capacity.
The improved mill is shown in the annexed drawing in which Fig. 1 is a vertical
central section thereof, Fig. 2 a similar view of a modification. Figs 3 and 4 cross
sections on lines A B, C. D. respectively of Fig. 2.
handle.
The body of the mill is made of cylindrical tube giving a convenient form for
the grasp of the hand. a is the filling hopper. 6 the tubular body serving as
c the grinding block and d a grinding counter ring. This ring is omitted
in the modification shown in Fig. 2 but the tube b may be pressed in or corrugated
if desired as shown in Fig. 4 to operate in the same manner as the ring d inserted
in Fig. 1.
The usual method of adapting the mill for coarse or fine grinding may be
adopted.
To the lower end of the mill may be attached for instance by bayonet-joint
a receiver for the ground product, such as e Fig. 1. This receiver when separated
from the mill may be closed by a cover secured by the same bayonet-joint and in
such case it may serve to contain the ground coffee or its substitute during the
steeping of the latter for the preparation of the beverage, and it may be constructed
as a filter box or simply as a wire gauze vessel of fine mesh.
The mill may have a conical foot piece, but I prefer to make the vessel e conical
so that it serves also as foot piece or stand for the mill.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of this said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what I
claim is;-
1. A hand mill having a hopper extended downward in the form of a tubular
cylindrical body with grinding mechanism at the lower end the grinding body being
operated by a crank above the hopper in order that the mill may be conveniently
held in one hand while the grinding effected by the other hand.
2. The construction of hand mill substantially as described and illustrated and
for the purpose set forth.
