, The box and framing of our press is similar to those in general use. It lays horizontal, and is marked A inthe drawing. The follower has two levers, b, jointed to it side by side at the center, and are of equal 'length to the other ends of these levers. Others, c, are connected by joints at about the distance of the length of levers b from their point of union. The levers c are crossed, and a pin passes through them both, which attaches them to the frame and serves as a fulerum. The other ends of the levers extend out and form sweeps, to the extreme ends of which cords or chains d are attached. These wind around a capstzn, e, which stands between the levers and on a line with their fulcrums. About half -way between the ends of levers c and their fulcrum a segment, f, is placed, over which the levers pass. On this segment there is a rack, and
on each ofthe levers a pawl,g, is put thatl 'to secure by Letters Patent, is-
The combination ofthe segment-rack f with the levers b and c, constructed and arranged in the :manner and for the purpose herein described.
