In a machine for carving wood mouldings or the like, the combination of a reciprocated slide, a tool-holding chuck formed with V-grooves on two opposite sides, V-pieces adapted to said grooves, cheeks on the slides, and set-screws therein for adjusting and fixing the V-pieces in the desired position, said chuck formed with a recess for receiving the tools which are placed abreast of each other for consecutively completing a pattern, transverse clamping-bars and set screws therein for holding down the tools in the recess when they have been adjusted in position, a tranverse flange on the chuck and set-screws passing therethrough for setting the tools up to the work, two lugs on the slide, and a set-screw attached to the chuck and passing between the lugs and provided with nuts for pushing forward or drawing back the entire chuck with tools adjusted and fixed therein, said chuck being removable bodily for sharpening the tools by merely loosening one of the said nuts and by setting back one of the V-pieces, substantially as described with reference to Figs. 5 to 7. (5.) The construction of carving-machine described with reference to Fig. 10. (6.) The construction of carving machine described with reference to Fig. 12. (7.) The means for driving the slides and feed-rollers as described with reference to Figs. 14 to 17. (8.) The construction of carving-machine described with reference to Figs. 18 to 21. (9.) In a machine for carving wood mouldings and the like, provided with reciprocating slides carrying the tools for incising and for removing the parts around the incisions, so arranging the tools abreast in each tool-holder that they, while working simultaneously on the moulding, yet, in consequence of the step-by-step feed imparted to the moulding in accordance with the pattern thereon, form such pattern consecutively, substantially as set forth.

No. 11561.—26th April, 1899.—WILLIAM KING BAKER and GEORGE SAMUEL BAKER, both of 58, City Road, London, England, Engineers. Improvements in or relating to whisking, mixing, and similar machines.

Claims.—(1.) In a whisking, mixing, or similar machine, the combination with a revolving beater of a hanger or holder which, for the purpose described, is elastic. (2.) In a whisking, mixing, or similar machine, a beater-blade tangential to the beater-spindle, for the purpose described. (3.) In a whisking, mixing, or similar machine, a filler or fillers such as F, F1, substantially as and for the purpose described. (4.) In a whisking, mixing, or similar machine, the combination with a cover or lid of one or more fillers, or guards, or guide blades, for the purpose described. (5.) In a whisking, mixing, or similar machine, guards or guide-blades such as H, H1, or H6, with or without drainage apertures therein, for the purpose described. (6.) In a whisking, mixing, or similar machine, guards or guide blades which are made elastic in order to engage with the beater-spindle, substantially as described. (7.) In a whisking, mixing, or similar machine, the combination of two or more guards or guide-blades and a cross-piece such as H3 connecting them, the device being retained in engagement with the beater-spindle by its own elasticity, substantially as described. (8.) In a whisking, mixing, or similar machine, guards or guide-blades H, H1, or H6, of a radius greater than that of the mixing-chamber, for the purpose described. (9.) In a whisking, mixing, or similar machine, a holder such as Q, upon which is mounted a driving-gear, and which is adapted to receive any one of a number of mixing-chambers, for the purpose described. (10.) A whisking, mixing, or similar apparatus constituted by the combination with a holder such as Q, upon which is mounted a driving-gear, of a series of mixing-chambers, substantially as described. (11.) In a whisking, mixing, or similar machine, the employment of a body or casing consisting of intersecting spherical or globular chambers. (12.) In a whisking, mixing, or similar machine, the combination with the body or casing, consisting of intersecting spherical or globular chambers, of a set of beaters central in each such chamber, substantially as described. (13.) In a whisking, mixing, or similar machine, the combination with the beater C, C1, (Fig. 13) of another similar beater, and gearing to rotate them and maintain constant the angular relationship of one beater to the other. (14.) In a whisking, mixing, or similar machine, the combination with the beater of a disc D, having an annular groove and diametral slot therein, and an elastic hanger such as E, having upon one of its arms an interrupted ring receivable in the annular groove, for the purpose described.
