Key to Links for Patent Information

USPTO = U.S. Patent Office . Images of the actual patent can be viewed on the U.S. Patent Office web site but a special TIFF viewer must be installed with your browser in order properly work. More information on how to configure your computer to view these patents can be found at TIFF image Viewers for Patent Images.
DATAMP = Directory of American Tool And Machinery Patents . A sister site to VintageMachinery.org with information on patents related to machinery and tools. A much easier user interface than the USPTO's for finding information on machinery patents.

Patent Number Date Title Name City Description
733,149 Jul. 07, 1903 Method of changing the frequency of single-phase induction-motors Penrose E. Chapman St. Louis, MO
822,186 May. 29, 1906 Elevator safety-alarm Penrose E. Chapman St. Louis, MO This invention consists of a series of "small objects" such as chains, ropes or cloth from the leading edges and surfaces of an elevator car to provide a warning touch to anyone in the way of the car while it is moving. The invention relies on the person being able to quickly move out of the way when they feel the touch ("tickle") of the small objects.
874,163 Dec. 17, 1907 Armature-winding machine Penrose E. Chapman St. Louis, MO
1,121,798 Dec. 22, 1914 Drum-armature-winding machine Penrose E. Chapman St. Louis, MO
1,312,610 Aug. 12, 1919 Variably pitched and actuated bell Roland Harry Robinson St. Louis, MO
    Variably pitched and actuated bell Penrose E. Chapman St. Louis, MO  
1,351,230 Aug. 31, 1920 Armature and coil winding machine Penrose E. Chapman St. Louis, MO Improvements to the inventor's patents 1,121,798 and the not-yet-issued 1,500,181, to lay down the windings in smooth tidy layers rather than randomly.
1,396,728 Nov. 15, 1921 Unreeling and tension device Penrose E. Chapman St. Louis, MO Improvements to the inventor's patents 1,121,798 and the not-yet-issued 1,500,181, to lay down the windings with a uniform tension on the wire, which avoids chattering and injury to the wire's insulating coating.
1,500,181 Jul. 08, 1924 Armature and coil winding machine Penrose E. Chapman St. Louis, MO Improvements to patent 1,121,798; see also patents 1,351,230 and 1,396,728. The improvements in this patent are related to enabling the winding of multi-pole stators, to increase speed of winding, and to create more tightly packed windings.
1,523,630 Jan. 20, 1925 Armature-winding machine Penrose E. Chapman St. Louis, MO Improvements are aimed at winding two coils simultaneously, and by providing means for feeding out the wire to create leads on each coil.
1,541,626 Jun. 09, 1925 Taping machine Penrose E. Chapman St. Louis, MO
1,579,808 Apr. 06, 1926 Armature-winding machine Penrose E. Chapman St. Louis, MO
1,662,881 Mar. 20, 1928 Armature-winding machine Penrose E. Chapman St. Louis, MO
1,682,213 Aug. 28, 1928 Winding and dereeling device Penrose E. Chapman St. Louis, MO
1,699,833 Jan. 22, 1929 Picture-projecting apparatus Penrose E. Chapman St. Louis, MO
1,759,479 May. 20, 1930 Testing instrument Penrose E. Chapman St. Louis, MO
1,763,389 Jun. 10, 1930 Ice-cream spoon Penrose E. Chapman St. Louis, MO
1,839,865 Jan. 05, 1932 Liquid-level regulator Penrose E. Chapman St. Louis, MO This invention "has great usefulness in connection with wickless burners which require accurate levels."
1,902,542 Mar. 21, 1933 Testing instrument and regulator Penrose E. Chapman St. Louis, MO Improvements to patent 1,759,479.
1,924,913 Aug. 29, 1933 Growler type testing device Charles L. Chittenden New York, NY See patent 2,622,128 for a subsequent improvement to this patent.
