Be it known that I, ESAU P. NEWMN, of Ne\v Albany, in the-county of Floyd, and State Aof Indiana, havo invented a new and useful Improvement in Chur'nsj and Ido hereby declare that the follov'ving is a full, clear; and exact description of theconstrnction and operation of the same, reference being had to the annexed drawings, makin-'g part of this specification, inwhich NoQl-'is a perspective view of churn. No.2 is a perspective'vierv of b'rakera No, 3 is a perspective view ofthe paddles 3 and pinion and step v A, churn; lJB B, standards supporting horizontalshaft D, bevel-wheel C, and lever or handle E; F, arch, holding the vertical' shaft H to its proper place during the operation of churning; M, top or lid of the churn; G, pinion to work on the' upper end of vertical shaft H; I I I I, perforated paddles attached to shaft HgIi, step in which the lower end of the vert-ical shaft is intended te ivork; J J J J, breakers attachednby steelwire springs K K.

The nature of my inventionl consists in providing a breaker forrthe inside of a-certain churn, (herein described,) having a semireverse motion, in order to double the effect of the power Vexpended over the old way.

The churn or`vesse'lA. may be made of wood or other suitable material. The bevel-wheel C and horizontal shaft D are of solid'cast iron, in one piece. 'Arch F is ofA cast iron, fastened to the lid M by three ordinary wood-screivs at eachlfootioijbase. The standards BIB are ofcast iron, fastened to Ithe lid M with three ordinary wood-screws at the base of each,iu the manner in which the arch F is fastened, The lever E is of wrought iron, with a Ivoodeu handle attached to one end of the horizontal shaft D by means of a mortise'in the end of the lever E, receiving a square tenen made on one` end of the shaft D, and secured bya tap or nut in the ordinarymanner. The bevel-wheel C and vertical shaft D are' supported andl held in proper position by and work in ordinary boxing iu the tops of thev standards-B B. The pinion G is of cast iron, attached or detached A at pleasure, to or from the vertical shaft D, by means of asquare tapering mortise or eye in thefcentre,.(so that the top, M,may be readily removed when donechurning antithesis in shape to the square shoulder at the top end ofthe vertical shaft H. The vertical shaft'H is of wood, supplied with a gu-dgeon of cast ironpat the top end, with a spindle to Workin thebox in the centre ofarch F, and 'a square tapering yshoulder to fit loosely, not too loose,.in the eye inthe centre of the pinion G, andwith a gudgeon of cast iron at the lower end to fit and vfork in the step also with fourarm's of-ivood ttingclosely in mortises made at right angles with each other, through-the main body of thesaid vertical shaft H, atvor near the'upper and lower Yends of the same, and fastened so that the respective ends or each respective' arm shall be equidistantifrom the centre of'the motion' of the said shaft H, and also with four paddles or dashers I I I I at the ends of said arms, perforated with holes to admit the .passage of milk or creamto assist the commotion necessary to produce butter.v

, L, the step in Whichthe lower point of the shaft H works, is of iron, and inserted in thc'bottomof the churn A.

Y The breakers J J JJ are of. wood, connected by two circular pecesyof strong, icxible steel wire, K K, entering cach breaker J, near the upper and lower ends, describing the arc of a circle of the 'same or alittle larger" diameter of the churn A.. A l A Take off the top, 4M, of the churn A by Urasping the horizontal shaft D vwith the hand, and, lifting, pour in D the milk or cream, and replace the lid or top, M, taking cure to' guide thespindle or upper point of the vertical vshaft H through the eye in the centre 'of the pinion G, and the box'in the arch F; 'then take the woodenihandle,

at the end of the lever E, in the hand, and work it upivardand downward, producing a semi-reverse motion in themilk or cream, and, being assisted in the' commotion by the effect of contact with the breakers' J J J J, the ei'ect of the paddles I I I I is doubled,'and' goed butteris produced inv eight minutes. Then take oli` the top, M,

as before, lift out the ver'ticalshaft. H, remove the butter, and remove the breakers JJ J J by pressing the springs K K a. little together, anditheu your churn is ready for cleaning, 8vo.-

What I claim las my invention, and desire to secure by L etters Patent, is'- .The breakers J JJ J'and steel-wirespringsK K, as used in connection with the paddles I I I I in churning butter. p EsAU I NEWMAN.
