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.

Patent Number Date Title Name City Description
1,327,296 Jan. 06, 1920 Traction-block Peter A. Solem Cincinnati, OH These reinforced rubber cushions were mounted on the beds of Solem endless-bed sanders. They were prominently featured in Solem advertisements: "The Solem (Patented) Reinforced Rubber cushion has proven so serviceable that we have repeatedly been called upon to furnish them for the older types of Endless Bed Sanders. The design of this cushion permits the edge sanding of very short and narrow stock without special forms and on this class of work greatly increases the capacity of Solem Sanders. The metal insert, larger bearing surface, conical center, and quality rubber used, insures at least double the service procurable with the older types of cushions for this purpose..."
