The Schedule referred to in those Intake in Patentand making-part of the sums.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, Rouun'r Poona, of Baltimon,

' in the county of Baltimore, and State of Maryland,

clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, making a part of this specification, in which- Figure i. represents a vertical section, taken through Figure 2 represents a top plan of the machine.

Similar letters of reference, wherc'thcy occur in the separate figures, denote like parts of the machine in both of the drawings.

My invention consists, first, in combining, with .a pan, tub, or other suitable holding-vessel, revolving horizontally on its support, a rubbing or mixing-apparatus, that turns about itssupport, within or ovcr said pan, tub, or other holder, so that the united movements of the pan or holder, and of the rubbers or mixers,

shall form or resemblea-seriea of oircula '--lines-, -that out or cross each other, after the manner of chased or lathe-work, as it is termed.

And my invention further consists in combining, with a parntub, or other suitable revolving holdingvesscl, and the rubbing or mixing-apparatus, a guide orsc aper, for turning and directing the material that is being rubbed or mixed, out of the path of the rubhers or mixers, when desired.

And my invention further consists in combining, with a revolving pan, tub, orother suitable receiver, and revolving rubbers and mixers, the guide and central discharge-o penin g, for removing the material acted upon by them from the pan or receiver.

To enable others skilled in the art to make and use my invention, I will proceed to describe the same, with reference to the drawings.

On a suitable base, I, the pan, basin, or other ves- Be], A, is arranged, so that it may be revolved, for which purpose a rib or circular projection, (1, is made on the bottom of the pan, which rests and moves in a grooved way, 0, on the base, 1, which groove may con.-

tain oil, to cause the pan to run easily and truly, and

with but little friction.

Around the edge of the bottom of the pan there is a circular rack, B, into which a bevel-gear, c, on the end of a shafhf, takes, so as to rotate the pan or vessel.

The power to drive the machinery may be transmittccLthrough a first pulley on the shaft 2', which moves said shaft, and from this shaft motion is comniunicated to the other movingeparts of the machine.

On this shaft '5 there is a gear, K, that meshes with and gives motion to a gear, L,,on the shaft f, and consequently to said shaft also.

The shaft 1 and its gears are supported and turned in a bracket or arm, M, that projects over the perimeter of the tub far enough to receive, hold, and support the mixing, rubbing, or stirring-devices, as will be explained.

The shaft 13 has upon its end a bevel-pinion, m, that works in and turns a bevel-gear, N, on a. vertical shait, n, suspended in or to the arm or bracket M, so as to turn freely therein; I

To the under side of the bevel-gear N is fastened, so that they will touch or nearly touch the bottom of the inside of the am-a series of stirrers, mixers, or rubbers, O, that are carried around with said gear, or with its shaft, in, and these stirrcrs,mixers,' or rubbers, maybe-of such shape and of such material as will best serve the special purpose for which the machine is to be used. v The red lines J shop the path or lines in which these stirrers, mixers, or rubbers move on or over the bottom of the revolving pan, it moves around on its supports. These lines J resemble what is tcrmo(1 'chased or lathe-ivorkfland cross each other at such inclinations that the material to be operated upon is mixed in the most thorough manner, and not simply pushed apart without bein mixed and thorou bl incorporated as is often the case with a body moving through a mass of material. The comparative speed or motion of the pan or holder, and of the mixers or rubbers, regulates.

the distance at'which'thcse lines cross or out each other.

When the material is sui'fioiently ground, rubbed, or mixed, the plug G is raised up out of the opening F, in the central part of the pan, by means of a rope, H, or otherwise,- and the scraper or guide D, upon the hinged or pivoted lever E, is allowed to drop, so as to come down upon or close to the bottom of the pan. The pan and stirrer-s are kept in motion, and the Ina-- teriahas it-is carried around by the pan, is, by the stirrcrs or rubbers (J, thrown against the scraper D,

which, as shown in iig. 2, is of a curved form, and

A- pan, or other suitable holding-vessel, revolving around its support, and a series of rubbers or mixers in said pan or other vessel revolving around their, and a dilforeut central support, so that the combined movements of the receptacle, and of the rubbers or mixers, shall be in lines substantially such as shown and represented, and for the purpose specified.-

Also, in combination with the revolving pan or other vessel, and rubbers or mixers, a semi-poi or guide, for moving the material operated upon out of the path of the mbbers or mixers, when desired, substantially as described.

.Also, in combination with the revolving pan or other vessel, and the revolving rubbers or mixers, and guide or scraper, u discharge-ope:ling, for removing the sol stance from the pan, by simply drawing the ping, and continuing the motion of the machine, substantially as (inscribed.
