THOMAS L. KENWORTHY AND AARON SILVERS, OF GOLLINSVILLE, OHIO. 12mm Paten; No. 67,315, dated July, 30,1867.
IMPROVEMENT IN MANUAL-POWER MACHINES.
"ro ALL WHoM 1T MAY ooNoERN.
Be it known that we, AARON SILVERS and Tnoxas L. Krxwonrnr, et' Collinsville, in Butler county, in the State of Ohio, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Manual-Power Machines; and we do hereby declare that the following is an exact and full description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon. I
Figure 1 represents a top view of our invention.
Figure represen-tsV a front side elevation of the same.
The object of our invention is to so construct and arrange the mechanism of the manual-power machine as to avail of' the weight of the body of the operator, while it shall provide the most convenient and advantageous position for him to exert his muscular power to propel the machine.
The rectangularframe A B rcstsifupon the extended sills C, the letter forming a broad base at the front side of the machine' below the treadle platforms DD. The treadle-frames E E are hinged in the same vertical plane by means of the rollers 1 an'd 2, which are journalled in the two end posts ofthe frame, as represented in the drawings. The double-crank shaft 3, resting in boxes on the central and front frame-pieces at 4 5, is provided with a hand-crank or winch, at the front side of the machine, and situated above the treadle-platforms D, and the other end of double-crank shaft 3 is progided with the large gear-wheel H, which meshes into the small pinion on the end of shaft I, which carries the balance-wheelJand pulley K.
Through this gearing power muy becoinmunicated to drive a vertically reciprocating saw, or, by means of belts, a rotary circular saw may be driven. The machine may also be used to operate other mechanism, as will be readily understood by millwrghts and oth-ers. i
When operating the machine, the operator will stand with bis right foot on the'platforln D', his left foot on platform D, and with his right hand upon the handle h of the winch o. The natural movement of the body of the operator in pushing the crank o will bring the Aweight of his body upon the platform D', on which the right foot is placed, and when he pullsthe win'ch o towards him (and as it passes through the lower part of its circle) his body will swing backwards and thereby throw his weight upon the platform or treadleA D, and these treadles D and D being connected by pitmenrs S with the two cranks on opposite sides ofthe line of shaft 3, the treadles and hund-winch o will work together to propel the machine. By this arrangement the operator will be afforded every facility for easily exerting`his strength, and at the same time moving the weight of bis body to drive the machine.' In turning a winch a person will necessarily oscillute his body, alternately casting its weight upon each foot, and by the arrangement of the trendles and winch in the manner described, this natural,
and easy movement of the body of` the operator is availed of to propel the machine, not only by muscular effort, but by the gravity of the operators body.
We are aware that manualpowcr machines have been constructed with double treadles and levers, all operated by an attendant, but we do not claim such devices, either jointly or severally, our invention being confined to our manner ofconstructing, arranging, and operating the treadles and winch, which are so placed in relation to each other as to secure the advantages hereinbefore set forth. l
Having fully described our improvements in manual-power machines, what we claim therein, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
The arrangement and combination of the trendles D and D', extending in front of the mainframe A B, and operating conjointhly with the'winch o, whenl constructed and applied in the manner und for the purpose described.
In testimony whereof` wehave hereunto set our hands this 25th day of February, 1867.

AARON SILVERS.
