Description: |
| We presume that Wm. E. Hill & Co. manufactured this log-turner because of the following text in this patent's description: "The object of my invention is to provide means whereby the so-called oscillating-cylinder log-turners, illustrated in Patent No. 245,496, granted to William E. Hill, can be readily transformed into practically a stationary-cylinder log-turner, and thereby do away with the objectionable radius-bar P, which oscillates the cylinders to so large extent that it becomes a continual nuisance to keep the steam connections in proper condition; furthermore, to provide a more substantial and improved construction in log-turners than has heretofore been in use. Heretofore log-turners have consisted of either two oscillating cylinders or two stationary cylinders; but never before to my knowledge has one stationary and one oscillating cylinder been used for imparting the various movements to the tooth-bar." |
