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. This is one of the recovered patents.
For a machine for Hulling Grass Seeds; Samuel Gould, Jr., New Portland, Somerset county, Maine, August 15.
"This machine is to rub the seed between a cylinder and two hollow segments, all covered with perforated sheet iron. The cylinder is not to turn round, but to vibrate backwards and forwards, each of the hollow segments embracing a quadrant, or more, of its lower half. The segments stand at a sufficient distance at the upper edges, to feed the machine. The description is not full, and there is no claim."
Description from the Journal of the Franklin Institute, V17, Jan 1836, pg. 195 |
