Description: |
| Fenwick & Lawrence - patent attorneys
My invention consists in certain constructions and combinations of mechanical devices, as will be hereinafter described and specifically claimed, whereby a machine is produced with which water and sand or water and chilled-metal shot can be continuously fed or moved by a forced circulation thereof through valved chambers and pipes from a receiving and discharging chamber or hopper to points where stone-saws or stone-rubbers or stone-dressers are acting upon stone and there distributed properly upon the stone, and, after aiding the saws in cutting the stone, are automatically and continuously returned to the chamber or hopper for reuse. This invention is such that either one, two, or more frames containing stone-saws or stone-rubbers or stone-dressers may be continuously supplied with water and sand or with water and chilled-metal shot, by means of a separate pump for each frame or one large pump for several frames, and the said fed substances may be kept in circulation, returned for continuous reuse, agitated, and deprived of all mud and refuse on their way through the receiving and discharging chamber or hopper.
