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
249,133 Nov. 01, 1881 Routing-machine Reynolds T. White Boston, MA
275,002 Apr. 03, 1883 Routing-machine Reynolds T. White Boston, MA "My invention relates to improvements in machines for cutting mortises, moldings, and rosettes in articles of wood. The invention consists in the employment of a rotary cutter the spindle of which is supported in bearings on a frame which slides in grooves on the main frame, the rotary cutter being driven by a belt from an adjustable counter-shaft, the belt passing over adjustable tightening-pulleys. The article to be operated upon is placed on a table or support, which is moved backward and forward by means of a cog-wheel gearing into a rack on the under side of the table, so that when the cutter has bored the requisite depth the table can be moved along and a groove the required length is cut without raising or removing the cutter from the same. The sliding table is carried by a sliding frame, which is adjustable on the main frame by means of a screw."
