Description: |
| Most of the patents prior to 1836 were lost in the Dec. 1836 fire. Only about 2,000 of the almost 10,000 documents were recovered. Little is known about this patent. Only the patent drawing is available. This patent is in the database for reference only.
"For an improvement in the Temple used in Weaving Cloth; Peter Newel, Waterford, Saratoga County, New York, January 5.
The claim in this patent is to "the yielding motion of the jaws in the frame at every revolution of the lathe of the loom, which prevents the selvage threads from breaking. Also the motion of the bolt which raises the joint arm, and gives the receding motion to the jaws, and thereby prevents any injury to the reed."
The specification, with the aid of the drawing, would undoubtedly suffice to render the invention intelligible had there been "written references" to the latter, agreeably to the absolute demands of the patent law; as it is, the construction and operation of the thing are far from being plain; this difficulty would most probably be removed by an examination of the model, which is, unfortunately, too frequently relied upon, as though it made a part of the patent."
Journal of the Franklin Institute, Jul., 1833, pgs. 18-19
