connection with the drawings, it is evident that
I provide a mechanism which is especially
adapted for use upon churns, washing-ma-
chines, and the like and which will impart
5 the proper motion to the dasher thereof in an
easy manner. thus providing a thoroughly
useful and practical mechanism.
What I claim as new, and desire to secure
by Letters Patent, is-
1o 1. In a mechanical movement, the combina-
tion of a base, standards rising therefrom,
a pair of arms at right angles to said stand-
ards, a vertical shaft mounted in said arms
for transmitting motion, a horizontal shaft
15 mounted within the standards adapted to
transmit motion to the vertical shaft, an arm
connected to the standards at right angles to
the first-mentioned arms, a lever pivotally
connected to said arm, and a segment carried
20 by said lever and operably connected to the
outer end of said horizontal shaft for trans-
mnitting motion thereto.
2. In a mechanical movement, the combina-
tion of i base, standards rising therefrom,
25 arms at right angles to the standards, a ver-
tical shaft mounted in the outer end of said
arms for transmitting motion, a pinion car-
ried by said shaft, a horizontal shaft journaled
in the ipper end of said standards, a pinion
30 carried by the said horizontal shaft meshing
with the pinion of the vertical shaft, another
pinion carried by the other end of said hori-
zontal shalt having a toothed and a smooth
surface, and mechanism operably connected
35 with said last-mentioned pinion for operating
the horizontal shaft.
3. In a mechanical movement, the combina-
tion of a base, standards rising therefrom,
arms at right angles to the standards, a ver-
40 tical shaft mounted in the outer end of said
arms for transmitting motion, a pinion car-
ried by said shaft, a horizontal shaft journaled
in the upper end of said standards, a pinion
carried by said horizontal shaft meshing With
45 the pinion of the vertical shaftt, another pinion
carried by the horizontal shaft provided with
a toothed and a smooth surface, an arm con-
nected to the upper end of the standards at
right angles to the first-mentioned arms, a
5o handle pivotally connected to said arm, and a
toothed segment carried by the said arm adapt-
ed to mesh with the teeth of said last-men-
tioned pinion for operating the horizontal
shaft.
55 4. In a mechanical movement, the combina-
tion of a base, standards rising therefrom,
arms at right angles to the standards, a ver-tical shaft mounted in the outer end of said
arms for transmitting motion, a pinion car-
ried by said shaft, a horizontal shaft journaled 6o
in the upper end of said standards, a pinion
carried by said horizontal shaft meshing with
the pinion of the vertical shaft, another pin-
ion carried by the horizontal shaft provided
with a toothed and a smooth surface, an arm 65
connected to the other end of said standard at
right angles to the first-mentioned arms, a lug
carried upon the outer face of said arm, a han-
die pivotally connected to said arm, a toothed
segment carried by the inner end of said han- 74
die adapted to mesh with the teeth of said last-
mentioned pinion and a pair of stops or lugs
carried upon the inner face of said segment
adapted to engage the lug of said arm, for the
purpose set forth. 7
5. In a mechanical movement, the combina-
tion of a base, standards rising therefrom, a
pair of arms rhounted in the upper end of said
standards, a vertical shaft journaled in the
outer end of said arms, a pair of beveled gears 8c
carried by said vertical shaft, a ratchet mech-
anismsconnecting each one of the gears to said
shaft, said ratchet mechanism being oppo-
sitely arranged, a horizontal shaft, a beveled
gear carried by the horizontal shaft continu- 85
ously revolving with said first-mentioned gears
of the vertical shaft, and mechanism for os-
cillating said horizontal shaft, for the purpose
set forth.
6. In a mechanical movement, the combina- 9
tion of a base, standards rising therefrom, a
pair of arms mounted in the upper end of said
standards, a vertical shaft journaled in the
outer end of said arms, beveled gears mounted
upon said shaft, a ratchet mechanism connect- 9.5
ing each gear to the, vertical shaft so that a
rotary motion is impaited to the vertical shaft,
a horizontal shaft, a beveled gear carried by
the horizontal shaft continuously meshing
with both of the first-mentioned gears of the lo
vertical shaft, a pinion carried upon the op-
posite end of the horizontal shaft, and a toothed
segment engaging said last-mentioned pinion
adapted to be oscillated to oscillate the hori-
zontal shaft so that the vertical shaft is re- 10
volved in one direction through the medium
of the ratchet mechanism.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in
presence of two witnesses.
