Freezers, of which the following is a specifi-
cation.
This invention relates .to an improvement
10 in churns and ice cream freezers.'
The object is to provide means for operat-
ing the dasher or agitator. of a churn or ice
cream freezer, which'. is capable of being
swung into and out of position at the will of
.15 the operator..
The invention consists of certain novel

parts which will be hereinafter described
andV pointed out in the following claims;.it
20 being understood that changes.in the form,
proportion, material and minor- details of
construction, within the scope of the ap-
pended claims, may be made without depart-

25 advantages of this invention.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1
is a view in elevation of the invention show-
ing a portion of the apparatus in section.
Fig. 2 is a detail view in elevation showing
30 the connection between the standard or post
and bracket. Fig. 3 is a horizontal sec-.
tional view on the line 3-3 of Fig. 1. Fig.
4 is a horizontal sectional view on the. line
4-4 of Fig. 1. Fig. 5 is a horizontal sec-
35 tional view on the line 5-5 of Fig. 1. Fig.
6 is a horizontal sectional view on the line
6-6 of Fig. 1. Fig..7 is.an enlarged verti-
cal sectional view showing the mechanism.
for operating the dasher and agitator..' Fig.
40 8 is a top plan view of the support for the
ice cream freezer or churn receptacle. Fig.
9 is a view in elevation of the detachable legs
of the support shown in Fig. 8. Figs. 10
and 11 are views in top plan of the agitators
45 or blades of the churn, and Fig. 12 is a view
in section of an ice cream freezer showing
the invention in elevation applied thereto.
A represents the churn receptacle which is
supported -upon a base 1 having a recess 2
50 formed therein for the reception of the re-
ceptacle A. A leg 3 is connected to the base
for forming a support therefor, and legs
4-4 are connected at their inner terminals
to a plat 5> The plate 5 is adapted to be
4) mitxected to-'a plate 6 whioh extends dowtnwarmly from the base 1, by means of bolts 7
and nutS 8. The inner surfaces of the plates
5 and 6 are preferably .concaved, forming a
channel or socket for an. end of a standard
or post 9. The bolts 7 and nuts 8 clamping Go
the plates 5 and 6 together, securely fasten
the lower terminal of the standard or post 9
to the plates, while the legs 3 and 4 form a
support for the base 1 and post 9.
Connected to the upper terminal of the 65
standard or post 9 are clamping members 10
and 11. These members are held upon the
post by means of bolts 12 and nuts 13. The
clamping member 10 is provided with a re-
cess 14, which is preferably made are shape. '70
Mounted in the recess 14 is the lower termi-
nal or ear 15 of a bracket B. The surface of
the terminal 15 is rounded to conform to the
shape of the recess and shoulders are formed
on the bracket, as at 16, for engaging shoul- 75
ders 17 formed on 'the clamping member 10
to limit the rotary movement.of the bracket
on the clamping member.
A recess 18 is formed in the bracket B in
which .the upper terminal or ear of the 80
clamping member 10 is received. A bolt.19
passes through the lower terminal 15 of the
bracket B, and the upper terminal of the
clamping member 10, and a wing nut 20 is
screwed upon .the bolt for fastening the 85
clamping. member 10. and the bracket to-
gether, the adjustment of the wing nut. 20
regulating the angle at which the bracket
may be held upon the clamping member 10.
Connected to the bracket B are upper and 90
lower arms 21 and 22 which are spaced
apart. Connected to the upper arm 21 is a
'rotatable shaft 23. Collars 24 are connected
to the shaft above and below the arm 21 for
supporting the shaft: upon the arm. The 95
arm 22, as may be best seen from Fig. 7, is
provided with. an opening 25.through which
the shaft 23 extends. A bevel pinion 26 is
loosely mounted upon the shaft 23 and is
supported upon the upper surface of the 100
arm. 22. A hub 27, connected to the bevel
pinion 26, extends through the opening 25 in
the arm 22 and is connected to a sleeve 28 by
a screw -29. Abevel pinion 30 is rigidly
mounted upon the upper end 'of the shaft 23 105
and is adapted to rotate therewith. A hori-
zontal shaft 31 is mounted on the bracket B
and has a bevel gear 32 connected thereto.
The bevel gear 32 mshes with the bevel pin-
