Jeff Joslin Vintage Machinery entry for Dole, Silver & Deming
|
Description: |
This invention is of interest because the inventor was a co-founder of tool and machinery maker Dole, Silver & Felch, which became Dole & Silver, which became Dole, Silver & Deming.The 29 May 1858 issue of Scientific American described this invention as follows: "This machine consists of a circular and revolving tub mounted on legs. Two knives vibrate up and down in said tub, and mince the meat perfectly. The tub has a very slow circular motion imparted to it by a peculiar system of gearing, while the knives have a rapid up and down movement by means of a crank shaft. The machine, as a whole, is very compact and effective in its operation." |
