No. 25387.—24th December, 1908.—HENRY ANGUS NICHOLSON, of Otatau, New Zealand, Engineer. An improved construction of flax-stripper.
Claims.—(1.) A flax-stripping-machine drum characterized by having double beaters, and means for conveying water outwardly through the spaces between such double beaters, substantially for the purposes specified. (2.) In flax-machines, a stripper-drum provided with beaters each formed of a pair of parallel bars arranged with a space between them, and with water-passages leading outwardly through the boss of the drum to the spaces between such double beaters, in combination with a hollow spindle upon which the drum is mounted, formed with an aperture in its wall arranged to coincide with the mouths of the water-passages in the drum-boss during a portion of their revolution, and means for introducing a flow of water into the hollow spindle, substantially as and for the purposes specified. (3.) The improved construction of flax-stripper substantially as described and explained, and as illustrated in the drawings.

No. 25418.—7th January, 1909.—EDWARD NEEDHAM WATERS, a member of the firm of Edward Waters and Sons, Patent Attorneys, of 414–418 Collins Street, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia (nominee of the New Jersey Patent Company, a corporation organized under the laws of the State of New Jersey, United States of America, and having its principal place of business at Orange, Essex, New Jersey aforesaid, said corporation having been organized to acquire Letters Patent, deal in same, and grant licenses thereunder—the assignees of Thomas Alva Edison, of Llewellyn Park, West Orange, Inventor; Henry Thomas Oliver, of 124 South Eighth Street, Newark, Mechanical Engineer; and Peter Weber, of 45 Ridge Street, Orange, Factory Superintendent, all in the County of Essex, State of New Jersey, United States of America). Improvements in phonographs and phonograph sound-records.
Claims.—(1.) A phonograph record made of hard, tough material, whose record-groove is substantially circular in cross-section with clearly defined side walls, and of materially finer pitch than forty threads per centimeter. (2.) A phonograph sound-record of hard, tough material, whose record-groove is substantially circular in cross-section, the maximum depth of which is greater than one-tenth of its width, and the pitch of which is approximately eighty threads per centimeter. (3.) A phonograph reproducer having a stylus adapted to track the record-groove of the phonograph-record of claims 1 and 2, said stylus being formed with a surface curved upon different radii, and supported in such a way that the radius of curvature in a plane parallel to the direction of said groove is greater than the radius of curvature in a plane at right angles thereto. (4.) A phonograph reproducer-stylus having a bearing-surface curved in one plane on a radius sufficiently small to enable it to engage the record-groove of the phonograph-record of claims 1 and 2, and curved on a substantially greater radius in a plane at right angles to said first plane. (5.) A phonograph reproducer substantially as described and shown in Figs. 10, 11, and 12 of the drawings. (6.) A phonograph having a feed-screw coaxial with the mandrel, and interchangeable means which adapt it to operate upon phonograph-records having record-grooves of different pitch. (7.) A phonograph having a feed-screw coaxial with the mandrel, and interchangeable means which adapt it to operate upon phonograph-records having respectively forty and eighty threads per centimeter. (8.) A phonograph having interchangeable means which adapt it to operate upon phonograph-records having respectively forty and eighty threads per centimeter, and having an indicator for designating which of said records the phonograph is in position for operating upon. (9.) A phonograph having a rotating hollow feed-screw shaft, a rotary shaft within said screw shaft, means for locking said shafts together so as to rotate at the same speed, and interchangeable means for gearing said shafts together so as to rotate at different speeds. (10.) A phonograph having a rotating hollow feed-screw shaft, a rotary shaft within said screw shaft, means for locking said shafts together so as to rotate at the same speed, and interchangeable means comprising planetary gearing for gearing said shafts together so as to rotate at different speeds. (11.) A phonograph substantially as described and shown in Figs. 13, 14, 15, and 16 of the drawings. (12.) A phonograph comprising a mandrel and a feed-screw shaft rotatable on different axes, and interchangeable means for gearing said mandrel and shaft together so that the relative speeds of said members will be suitable for operating upon records of different pitch. (13.) A phonograph substantially as described and shown in Figs. 17 and 18 of the drawings. (14.) A phonograph substantially as described and shown in Figs. 19, 20, and 21 of the drawings.
