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. There are no patent drawings available. This patent is in the database for reference only.
"For a machine for Scalding and Napping Hats; Daniel Baldwin, Ithaca, Tompkins county, New York, October 15.
The machine described is a sort of box, to be placed over a planking kettle, or large boiler. At the top of the box is a pulley, worked by a rope, for the purpose of letting from ten to fifty hats at a time descend into the heated liquid, or drawing them up at pleasure. There, of course, is no bottom to the box, and the hats are contained in a cloth suitably fixed for the purpose, and which, with other parts, is particularly described in the specification."
