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.

From the July 1919 "Southern Engineer". "When using a hand beading tool difficulty has been experienced by the bulging of the flue which is apt to make an air pocket... The Wallace Mfg. Co., Westport Station, Kansas City, Mo., has placed on the market an automatic beader, which, it is claimed, obviates the difficulty mentioned. With the construction of this tool, it is claimed that the beader must come against the flue in exactly the right position every stroke. A perfect bead and a perfect expansion can only be obtained by simultaneous operation. With the Wallace Beader, the blow that beads the flue expands it in the sheet, making it always uniformly perfect."
